Thread: Google Merchant Feed load (XML) problems

    Google Merchant Feed load (XML) problems

    I've been trying to get this to upload and all I get is a nondescript message "This is not a format we support: HTML". I'm at a loss. I've looked at their RSS 2.0 example and my upload looks good to me. I have the settings on the feed to take an XML file.

    Here's the file http://www.luckygemstones.com/GMC/google-merchant.xml

    If anyone can help me or at least point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it!

    Page not found.

    Since we only display items we currently have in stock, this probably means the item you BOOKMARKED is SOLD OUT or the webpage has been MOVED or no longer exists.
    If you intend to become an XML expert, I can warmly recommend this

    Sorry! Typo in URL

    (Should have been an underbar and not a dash in the URL name) Anyway, here's a couple items I'd like to load into their Feed.
    Code:
     
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    <rss version="2.0" xmlns:g="http://base.google.com/ns/1.0">
    <channel>
    <title>LuckyGemstones Product Upload</title>
    <link rel="self" href="http://www.luckygemstones.com" />

    </item>

    Any help w/ why this will not load would be helpful! I used Google's RSS 2.0 as an example and can't see anything wrong with it.

    Thanks!
