Can you please verify that you are using the current Version of Jigoshop (1.9.2)and that you using the at least PHP version 5.3. Also please verify that you have properly configured the Google Product Feeds extension by watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzF-MkaTAEg

Thanks for the response!

Yes, I have the latest version of WP, Jigoshop, and PHP 5.3.

In the video, you’ll see the link to the feed. If you copy and paste that into the options for Google Merchant Center, it gives an error saying it doesn’t accept special characters…

Is there another link to the feed that we can use for Google to accept the data feed?

OR, do we have to save this feed as a TXT or XML file, then upload it to Google Merchant Center feeds?

Hi @anythinggraphic,
We are adding extra fix for special chars, new plugin release will be available to download on monday.

Awesome! Thanks guys ?? I appreciate the speedy responses.

Will we be notified via the WP Admin panel or do we have to redownload the ZIP from our Jigoshop account?

You should have notification, but if it’s not there – please check your account on jigoshop.com – new version was uploaded today

I downloaded the plugin again via My Downloads on Jigoshop.com and uploaded it to the site. I checked the settings and the URL is still the same (characters that aren’t allowed in Google Merchant Feeds…).

Example: https://domain.com/?action=generate_feed

hm, what version number you’ve got?
and can you copy example string that was refused?

I have version 1.0.1

Here’s a screenshot of the error I’m getting from Google Merchants: https://awesomescreenshot.com/0d12tw8v01

The feed URL I’m putting in there is what I’m getting from the plugin: https://nmpiecompany.com/?action=generate_feed

[ No bumping please. ]

@anythinggraphic,
thanks for detailed info, i’m trying to speed things up.

You’re welcome! Thanks for working on it.

assuming it’s fine as we haven’t heard back from you, marking as resolved for now

No, this is not resolved… I’ve tried to reach out multiple times but my comments keep getting deleted…

I’ve been waiting on this for a while now…

Well I did not see this tread early, but posting the answer just in case, per your screenshot you are entering the feed url as the feed name, this is wrong. type anything.txt as the feed name and after that you can schedule a fetch on this feed name where you can paste the feed url. see how to send feed to google if you have your feed url.
