Recommended Posts

Ok, I am working on loading this contribution, it looks great. Am I to understand that it will work with other comparitive search engines? Or is there other contributions to add with the froogle.php?

 

Thanks.

The Froogle Data Feeder is designed for use and integration with ONLY Froogle. However, it may work with other shopping comparision search engines. No offical support is provided for use outside of Froogle. There are a few other SCS's available in the contributions section (Yahoo, Bizrate, etc).

 

Flyer5: check your image path in froogle.php.

Most likely your question has been answered, please do a search first.

Seems ok, well it points to the image root. There are sub categories from here.

 

$imageURL = 'http://www.bandland.co.uk/catalog/images/';

 

 

I am using an on the fly thumbnailer, could that be causing the problem?

UPDATE

 

If you are using CRON to automate your data feeds, then how do you REALLY truely know if they have been sent or not without logging into your account and checking the upload date?

 

I have just added 3 lines of code to the bottom of your froogle.php file that will send you an e-mail each time a new feed has been submitted.

 

At the very bottom of froogle.php, add this BEFORE the last ?>

$datafeed_sent_email = 'Froogle\'s Data Feeder has just submitted your product listings';
$datafeed_sent_subject = 'New Froogle Data Feed Notification...';
tep_mail(STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, $datafeed_sent_subject, $datafeed_sent_email, STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS);

 

Enjoy...

OK, I have installed the contribution and on testing it I get this error

 

Error the data base does not exist.

 

Here is my code if someone can point me in the right direction.

$OutFile = "http://www.mrbundles.com/catalog/feeds/mrbundles.txt"; //"CHANGEME-full-path-to-file-with-777-dir-and-file-permissions.fr-outfile.txt";
$destination_file = "mrbundles.txt";  //"CHANGEME-filename-to-upload-to-froogle.txt";
$source_file = $OutFile;
$imageURL = 'http://www.mrbundles.com/catalog/images/';
$productURL = 'http://www.mrbundles.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=';
$already_sent = array();

$home = "sql1.infinology.com";

 

thanks

copy and paste a line produced by the feed and we'll take a look at it.

I have set up the contribution and the froogle.php runs but I can not seem to find the file afterwards.

 

 

THis is my configuration:

 

$OutFile = "/catalog/feeds/needlepointbackbay.txt";

 

$destination_file = "needlepointbackbay.txt";

 

$source_file = $OutFile;

 

$imageURL = 'http://www.needlepointbackbay.com/catalog/images/';

 

$productURL = 'http://www.needlepointbackbay.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=';

 

$already_sent = array();

 

The link leads me to http://www.needlepointbackbay.com/feeds/ne...ointbackbay.txt. There is no file there.

 

TIA

The reason your pics are not showing on froogle is becaus of the [1} on the fly thumbnail automatically attached to the image url.

 

I had the same problem, and to see if this is causing the problem I manual changed the [1] to %5B1%5D, and now the pictures are showing

 

Now I only have to figure out how I have to code this so that it wil go automatically

You are only allowed one upload per a set amount of time. Plus, if your Froogle account hads not been approved by Froogle, you are unable to upload until that current upload has passeed the approval stage.

I'm not getting any errors, and the real output file looks good... however when I tested froogle.php, the link for the output file is on that page looks wrong:

http://www.*****.com/usr/home/iceland/publ...eds/iceland.txt

If I click the link, I'm re-routed to the index page of the store.

 

However, if I look at www.*****.com/shop/feeds/iceland.txt in my browser, the output looks fine. Its as though froogle.php is combining both the http address and the file path.

Any ideas what I did wrong?

 

Thanks! :D

I get this error for the email add-on (using MS 2.2):

 

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: tep_mail() in /usr/home/iceland/public_html/shop/admin/froogle.php on line 374

 

Seems like a great idea though, if I can get it worked out :D

Did you create and chmod the folder?

you'll probably need to include application_top.php since the froogle data feeder is designed to work as a standalone without any osC files. introducing application_top.php may cause bugs, at least one is known to modify the default langauge.

all cron jobs which are submitted to my servers are automatically emailed by default when they have been executed. usually default with unix, if the admin has it setup properly.

When we install the froogle uploader and we set it up it give us this error

 

File completed: dutchpipeltd.txt

 

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ftp_connect() in /usr/www/users/marvinlb/catalog/admin/froogle.php on line 313

 

 

It creates the file but does not upload it to froogle.

We have uncommented the ftp block but we still get this error.

 

Thank you,
