If you getting any error then visit the site email customer support

Take a look at https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/6349567?hl=en

Btw! You need to set the currency in the feed settings in your GMC account, as it's not included in the feed. It's mentioned in the error log at GMC.

I installed the update, here is the feed:

http://vmvvmv.com/index.php/feed/google_base

It obviously shows the price in dollars, as configured within the settings

But google is throwing up this error missing price when its uploaded to the merchant center.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Missing value price means exactly as it says, it's missing a price (in valid format and currency).
You should add more info if you want some more specific help ...

I am getting the following error for all my products:

Missing value [price]


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You ever see this? https://letsencrypt.org/
Free encryption for SSL.

I am looking into it right now. Trying to understand what I need.
From what I can tell, because my store is in a sub-domain, I can get a way with an SSL for the sub-domain only.
Just hoping store in a sub-domain doesn't create more headaches to come.

Today, all stores should have SSL.
My proposal, block access to admin and store if you don't have it ...

Another suggestion: Apparently you have to have SSL installed to use this.
I know some credit card mods check if you are using SSL, and block from enabling the mod if it's not installed.
Maybe something like this could be added. It will prevent peoples accounts from being suspended when trying to use it without.
Or at least have a warning in the mods admin area about suspensions with SSL.

Awesome

I'll make a PR to the core then.

Great fix. Looks much better and Google accepted all of the products.

Only 3 errors and that's because I have 3 products for $0.00.
Guess I'll have to delete them and we are all good.

Thanks a bunch for that.

Anyhow the formating of this feed sucks, and it's even a bug with the link tag ...

Try replacing your /catalog/controller/feed/google_base.php with the one attached.

Tip! Test adding CDATA sections to the description attributes etc. in the script.

I must be doing something wrong.
I took out the email address and tried to run it again.

Error now shows:
Line Nr. Column Nr.
4 816

If I take line 4 from http://store.valleybeekeeping.com/index.php/feed/google_base

It doesn't have 816 characters.

How do I get the correct info from the feed to get the proper lines and characters?

Remember, if you changed anything between Google reading and now, the feeds data is different ...

Btw! Try removing your mail address and other special stuff from your descriptions, like Google mention in the links I gave you above. You don't want to feed the spam boots with your mail anyway, I'm pretty sure your customers is able to locate the contact us form.

So I took line 5 from http://store.valleybeekeeping.com/index.php/feed/google_base
Pasted it into notepad++ and looked for character place 830.

style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-

It comes up between 'Ar' in Arial from above.
So unless I am doing something wrong, I don't see an incorrect character.

This is the item it's getting the info from if it helps.
http://store.valleybeekeeping.com/index.php/pails/1-9l-2kg-plastic-pail

Column nr. 830 is the position on that line, the count of characters and spaces.

I checked their site again and found more info.

Feed name	Feed Id	Customer Id	Upload time		

Valley Beekeeping Supplies	103256711	6548565	Mar 12, 2017 12:00 am EST		

					

Item Id	Line number	Message	Type	Values	Item title

	5	XML formatting error	Error	"Column Nr.=830"	

It just doesn't tell me really what or where to look for the issue.
Says line 5 column 830. Looking at the feed in Chrome, line 5 looks ok.
Not sure there are even 830 columns.

The problem is most likely caused by some special character in your data, not being properly output for the xml: https://github.com/arastta/arastta/blob/master/catalog/controller/feed/google_base.php#l33

I'm sure Google gave you some more details when you tried to add it.

Btw! Maybe you're also missing some required data on some products.

I just downloaded Opera to test it out, and it shows the feed ok, but it only shows a fraction of the products.

Just tested it with Explorer.


Internet Explorer cannot display this feed

This feed contains code errors.

That looks interesting.
I checked using different browsers.

Here's using Chrome and Firefox.
Chrome has no format, firefox has format but only 2 items

And google itself tells me itself when trying to upload products that it's not an xml formatting error.

I've attached what I get with my Opera browser.

Only seems to pull 3 or 4 items into the feed.
