Froogle Feed - Format Issues - How to Correct

Hi Everyone.

 

We have been using the Froogle Feed module successfully, but Google has made Froogle a part of Google Base, which apparently has some new formatting. Is there an OSCommerce update to address this? Here's the email I received from Google Base about the formatting:

 

--------------------

 

Hello Jeremy,

 

Good news - the content of your bulk upload has been approved. However, we noticed that there were a few changes you could make to help users find your items:

 

- Missing attributes

- Using Froogle attributes (fields)

 

-----------------

Missing attributes: We noticed that your items don't contain labels. We highly recommend you use the "label" attribute to include relevant keywords. The more relevant information you include for your items, the better we'll be able to match your items to users' queries. For more information about attribute guidelines, please visit:

Using Froogle attributes (fields): We noticed that your bulk upload is using attribute names specified in the old Froogle product feed format. Please convert your product feed to the new Google Base format by changing the attributes names in your header line:

After you've made any changes, please be sure to upload the new version of your bulk upload with the same filename. If you have any questions, or need additional information about these suggestions, do not hesitate to respond to this email.

 

Sincerely,

 

The Google Team

Have you searched the contributions area for a Google Base feeder?

 

The last I checked there were 2 that were available.
