Works for Simple Setups but Lacks Basic Functionality

  • The plugin works to connect your products to Merchant Center. Unfortunately Merchant Center itself is kind of a disaster so working within there on just about anything is brutal, and this plugin doesn’t simplify anything or provide some basic functionality it should. There is no option to create separate feeds so if you want to group your products by category, brand, etc. in Merchant Center, you need a different plugin. There is also no bulk edit feature so if you install it after your products have been configured and you have a lot of products, it’s a time suck to try and update the details of each listing. Functional but no where near what we should expect from an official Google supported plugin.

  • Hi @chrisasearles,

    Thank you for sharing your experience.

    You’re right, Google Listings & Ads doesn’t currently support the creation of multiple feeds. We typically develop the extension based on the needs of merchants. If the ability to add separate feeds is crucial for you, please submit a feature request. In the meantime, you can create additional feeds directly via Google Merchant Center.

    Regarding the bulk edit feature, have you explored our attribute mapping functionality? It enables you to define attributes in bulk for products, eliminating the need for manual updates on each listing.

    Please check it out and let me know if it helps.
