Google Shopping

I'm using 3.90 and installed Google Shopping Plugin. However, the category of my product is not listed in the Default Google Category but is listed in Google Taxonomy. How can I add the category. Also when Click Generate Feed, it only has 2 entries for my items but I have 4 total products. Please help.

Google Taxonomy list:
https://www.google.com/basepages/producttype/taxonomy.en-US.txt

(UPDATE) I have added the category in Taxonomy.txt in the Google Shopping Project. Now, I get an error "Default Google category is not set" when Generating Feed.

(UPDATE) Now no more error after adding Manufacturer and MPN on each product. When I click the "Generated File Path (STATIC)" It only shows 1 product. I have 4 in total. Please help.

I've just had exactly the same problem. I believe the Google Shopping plugin didn't originally install properly, and uninstall / reinstall should fix it.

However on a live site I didn't want to go that path so instead I went to "Settings \ All Settings (advanced)" search for setting name: googleshopping

You should then see a setting listed called "expirationnumberofdays".  Mine had a value of zero.  So update that, recreate the feed and problem fixed.

It might also be worth checking the other "googleshopping" while you are at it.

Hope that helps.

Reinstall plugin for the win!

I ran into an issue after moving to NOP 3.90 where my Generated file path (static) wasn't correct and was to a broken link. Tried changing the settings above but didn't work. Uninstalling the plugin and reinstalling did solve my issue.
