I have a feed submitted to Google merchant center and it is giving me warnings about the fact that I have mpn, gtin and brand but have set identifier_exists to no. All of our products have the required identifiers so I’d like to delete this field altogether since Google sets default to yes. Any idea how I can remove this field?

Hi Joris – adding multiple filters is resolved for me. After deleting projects, clearing cache on server etc, I found that I also had to clear my browser history.

I can’t enter more than 8 filters. Is that a cap set in the plugin? We have some products in the vitamin supplement space that Google disapproves so it’s a much cleaner solution to remove them from the feed.

Ok on the no comma separator. I’ve tried more than one plugin so must have been somewhere along that process where it worked.

Yes, I am updated to latest plugin, deleted all projects, created new projects and flushed cache. We use Varnish cache though and it sometimes messes things up. I will try again on that process.

I am having same problem. I tried deleting all projects and starting new but it didn’t fix it for me. Only the last filter is saved.

I need to exclude a number of products and am doing it by using a filter that says:
If Product ID is equal to 3023,2635,2537,2633,2556,37756 then exclude. Will the comma separator work? I thought it was working at one point but now it seems to only grab the first entry (3023).

I tried doing one product per row but can’t get multiple filters to save, only the last one.

Thanks, Karen

Hi – Can anyone help me with this answer or should I assume that the answer is it isn’t a feature in the plugin?

Thanks

Hi-

I don’t want to set all my products to the same category. I want to use the Category Mapping feature in Pro but want to be able to override it for certain products.

Let’s say I have a local category of Fitness Bars, Vitamins, and Supplements. I set the Mapping for this local category to
Health & Beauty > Health Care > Fitness & Nutrition > Vitamins & Supplements
because I have mostly vitamins and supplements and just a few bars.

I want to override the fitness bars that fall in that category to say this instead:
Health & Beauty > Health Care > Fitness & Nutrition > Nutrition Bar

How do I do this?

Hi- I have looked at the support documentation and video. Can you point out where exactly I can find the answer to my specific question of overriding the category mapping for a specific feature or is this not a capability of the plugin?

Hi Joris- Do you have any feedback on how we can get UPC to show in our feed?

Hi Joris-
We added UPC in-house. Here is the code snippet:

// Add Custom UPC Meta Field
add_action(‘woocommerce_product_options_inventory_product_data’,’woocom_simple_product_upc_field’, 10, 1 );

function woocom_simple_product_upc_field(){
global $woocommerce, $post;
$product = new WC_Product(get_the_ID());
echo ‘<div id=”upc_attr” class=”options_group”>’;
//add UPC field for simple product
woocommerce_wp_text_input(
array(
‘id’ => ‘_upc’,
‘label’ => ‘UPC’,
‘desc_tip’ => ‘true’,
‘description’ => ‘Enter the UPC’)
);
echo ‘</div>’;
}

// save UPC Meta Field
add_action(‘woocommerce_process_product_meta’,’woocom_simple_product_upc_save’);
function woocom_simple_product_upc_save($post_id){
$upc_post = $_POST[‘_upc’];
// save the ups
if(isset($upc_post)){
update_post_meta($post_id,’_upc’, esc_attr($upc_post));
}
// remove if UPC meta is empty
$upc_data = get_post_meta($post_id,’_upc’, true);
if (empty($upc_data)){
delete_post_meta($post_id,’_upc’, ”);
}
}

This results in a new field showing up on the Inventory tab for ANY Woocommerce product that allows you to give it a UPC.

The UPC is then stored as a standard post meta field titled _upc. We simply need to be able to select it as an option in attribute mapping.

We initially purchased this plug in https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/webappick-product-feed-for-woocommerce/ and it pulls the post meta fields in but does not seem to have the same flexibility as your plug in for the category mapping.

Thanks,
Karen

Hi Joris-

Thanks for the info on google_product_category. We like to include as much data as possible to Google so the products show up for the most relevant search terms.

We have a different issue right now to solve. We have added a upc field to our products via the woocommerce_product_options_inventory_product_data() hook to track UPC for all our inventory needs. It doesn’t show up in the dropdown as an option for Attribute Mapping in Product Feed Pro. How can we map g:gtin and g:mpn to this custom field?

Thanks,
Karen

Hello-

Thanks for the quick reply.

1) We do not want to exclude certain products but we don’t want to have to set up our local category structure to exactly match 1:1 the Google Shopping Taxonomy. We would have to have too many categories on the site and some might only have one product in them. Now that I’ve looked more I see there see there is an option to map a product to a google shopping category. If I do that for a product that falls into a local category that also has a mapping, will it override the category mapping? I think that would solve our need.

2) We are using Yoast and the primary category does seem to be working. I might have looked at an un-refreshed feed by accident.

Regards,
Karen
