XML Feed for Facebook Shop?

[TechMistress]

Hi Everyone!

Has anyone created an xml feed for use with Facebook Shops? They have a way to sync your catalog, but I didn't know if it would work with Phoca. Facebook has their data feed specs here: https://www.facebook.com/business/help/ ... 3027795860

Also, does anyone have a sample feed setup for Google? I'm not quite understanding the fields.

Thanks!

Facebook does accept Google Feeds. The only REQUIRED columns I cannot figure out how to add to the feed are:

image_link (I tried using 'image', but it does not work)
url
link

I'm not sure the difference between their 'url' and 'link', but I don't know what to put in that item anyway.

Any ideas?

Hi, you can define the fields in options of XML Feed.

So you can define there image_link and url (link), but to know exactly what the difference between link and url is, you need to see the service API

Ohhh, Thank you!

I had it opposite! I was putting the name of the Phoca field in the blank field, rather than the asked-for item!

Everything works great! Thank you.

Another Question: Is there a way to NOT inlcude a category or product in the feed?

For now, you can only unpublish each product for XML feed:

Great! I suppose at a glace I thought that was unpublish the entire product.

Phoca Cart continues to be a fantastic shop!

Ok

[TechMistress]

I have tried to unpublish products from the Feed in the XML Feed section of each product, however they are still showing up in the feed.

The only way to not include products in the feed that I could find is to unpublish the product entirely.

Is this a bug?

Hi, which version do you use now? When you test it with this Beta:

Do you get the same problems?
