Supply alternative image for product feed

    Since Google rejects images with branding within them and our client takes the product pictures himself against a branded background (since they are refurbished items) we need to supply an alternative image to Google for the main product image.

    I tried setting up a custom field using ACF but it’s not showing up in the field mapping list for g:image_link – should this be possible and if not what is the best way to achieve submitting a specific image (which might not be the main product image or part of the gallery) in the Google Feed?

  • Hi,

    Thanks for using our plugin and reaching out to us.

    When you use a normal input ACF field and put in the full path to your alternative image this should work. The ACF field really should show in the drop-downs. Perhaps it is named slightly different than you expect?

    When you say a normal input ACF field do you mean a basic text field? The custom field I added was of type image (since that seemed to be the most relevant)

    Yes thats what I meant, the ACF image field somehow only returns a string of numbers/letters when used and not the entire image path unfortunately.

    Assuming the issue at hand has been resolved and/or our support is no longer required we are going to close this topic for housekeeping reasons now.

    Please do not hesitate to reach out to us again whenever you need our help.
