So I decided to scrub my old store and make a new one. Last time I had to great a google base feed manually due to an age restriction page. This time I left out the age restriction page to make my life easier. When I upload create a base feed and set the time along with the feed link, Google is only recognizing 2 products. I have over 300 products that I need to feed into google base. Does anyone have any ideas why the feed isn't giving google all of the products

Have you checked the contents of your feed? It should be at:
http://www.yoursite.com/index.php?route ... oogle_base

Are all the products there?

Are the 2 products that were added the first two in the feed? Or the last 2, or random?

Please post the code of the feed around the 2 products that were added, plus a few others either side.

The 2 products showing on google base are the first 2 products on the feed.

As for the feed you are asking for, here it is http://www.exotic-sextoys.com/upload/in ... oogle_base

Okay, so something must be corrupted after the first 2.

Please post the xml code for your feed for the first 5 products.

That's not XML. If you go to www.yoursite.com/index.php?route=feed/google_base, then view the source code you should get something like:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?><rss version="2.0" xmlns:g="http://base.google.com/ns/1.0"><channel><title>Site Name</title><description>A personally selected collection of the best alternative UK and international designer furniture, lighting and gifts. We only stock what we consider to be the most interesting and unusual items available.</description><link>http://scarletandjones.com/</link><item><title>Origami coffee table in glass and steel by Anthony Dickens</title><link>http://scarletandjones.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=50</link><description><p>
	<strong>Delivery: </strong>2 - 3 weeks</p>

<div class="clear">
	&nbsp;</div>
<p>
	This contemporary version of an African tripod table is, despite its visual simplicity, masterfully designed. Comprising three identical steel legs, the folds and angles slot neatly together to form the tripod base. The base is secured by the 10mm glass top which, when set in place, tightens the joints. Three brightly coloured tabs, UV welded to the glass and available in pink, orange or silver, discreetly but securely bolt the glass top directly to the base.</p>
<p>
	The origami table is lower to the ground than most coffee tables and covers quite a large area so is best suited to a more generous space. The legs assemble and dismantle easily and can be flat packed for easy storage and transportation.</p>
<p>
	From <a href="http://anthonydickens.com/">Anthony Dickens&#39; website</a>: &quot;Anthony Dickens strives to create simple yet functionally innovative and thought provoking pieces. &nbsp;He discovers new ways to express traditionally designed objects, subverting archetypal forms and re-imagining the everyday things that surround us.&quot;</p>

	Diffused by Waldo&#39;s face this bed side lamp provides enough light to read by but its soft glow will not interfere with the all important drop off. &nbsp;Waldo will quietly keep guard over your little person while they head to the land of nod.</p>
<p>
	The lamp is constructed from rubberised plastic and the on/off button is placed between Waldo&#39;s paws. &nbsp;A low voltage bulb is provided with the lamp so it is always cool to touch and is perfect for use by little hands. The dog&#39;s head is adjustable so the light can also be used as a desk lamp.</p>
<p>
	Waldo complies with childrens safety standard BS EN 60598-2-10.</p>

You mean you don't get something that starts <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

Hmm... Are you sure you're viewing the source of the feed page? Because your feed should be coded like that, not starting with <div class="apple-rss-article apple-rss-read"... etc.

There is definitely something wrong with your feed as it is not showing up at all in my feed reader, and yet the code is there behind the page.

Will get back to you.

In Google Merchant Center have you gone to Settings > General and ticked the box "This site contains content that may be unsuitable for minors."

That might be it.

Can you try and rename the product "Adam & Eve - Kayden's Frosted Ice Silicone Backdoor Buddy" that seems where the problem is - maybe change it to "Adam and Eve - Kayden's Frosted Ice Silicone Backdoor Buddy"
