Google Merchant Feed Currency

Postby info@.....nl » Fri Jul 24, 2020 4:22 pm

Dear Sir, Madam,

I have sent several e-mails (to support and contact e-mailbox) last week but did not get any reaction back. Hopefully I can reach you with this forum.

I have sent last Sunday (19-7-20) and Monday (20-7-20) the mails below. I did not receive any reaction back.

Did you receive the e-mails?

Question 1:
In the fleedfile is stated: <g:price>19.91</g:price>
According to the Google Merchant this should be <g:price>19.91 EUR</g:price>

How can I add the currency in the Google_rss.xml file?

Looking forward to your reply.

Regards,
Roel

hello Roal, i apologize for missing your emails, i now checked google feed specifications and you are right about using the currency inside the price.

https://support.google.com/merchants/an ... 4371?hl=en

do you know if the number needs to be formatted as well ?

using comma instead of dot for EU and similar.

i am going to adjust this soon, i need to collect more info on this topic.

best regards, stan

Hi Stan,

It is a dot and it is NOT allowed to have more than 2 digits behind the dot.

hello Roel, i now adjusted the code in OPC but i cannot find specs about the "dot".

if you check Slovakian version of this field here - https://support.google.com/merchants/an ... 4371?hl=sk

you'll see they use comma, while over here - https://support.google.com/merchants/an ... 2112?hl=sk

the use a dot.

hmm, but NL version of the price itself uses DOT

https://support.google.com/merchants/an ... 4371?hl=nl

so now i am not really sure what to do about this mess.

i've used "comma or dot" per virtuemart currency config, but i guess this will need another config....

on the other hand, for slovakian xml feed, we've imported the prices without currency while setting currency in g.merchant and this had worked OK (we used dot + no currency) for SK feed.

so what do you suggest ?

i now reversed this to dot even though SK specs are using comma as i am reading this - https://schema.org/PriceSpecification which is referenced from g.merchant feed and this strictly says to use always dot instead of comma.

i'll send you the udpate by email, and once confirmed i'll release this normally.

best regards, stan
