Hi Kathy,
Yes, this is very problematic to us all. They told me that Google had them
take that
out because it was interfering with the Google feed that *they *now
administer.
There is a solution by Dlevens on that thread: in a nutshell if you
=== the following is his solution ====
I figured out that you can use the bulk editor to show just the products
you want then append this to the URL
&app_context=1780363
*This will turn on the google product categories. *
=== end of the excerpt from his solution ===
I think the only place this works is in the Product bulk editor. I have
played a little with it and I just added that to the very end of the URL
and it worked. What happens is:
*- you add it, press enter, it redisplays the list of products you have
selected to bulk edit. - Then you go to *COLUMNS
and scroll down to the bottom and all the Google Fields should be there
under Metafields.- Select the ones you want to edit and they will display
for you to enter info
It’s not pretty, but gets you access.
Otherwise, you send them over to Google, wait for Google to reject them and
put them on the NOT APPROVED list under the Google Channel and when you
bulk edit those, it shows the Google Fields.
If you can get a support person via chat, I would complain. When they get
a huge uproar they might do something about it. But it takes a LOT of
complaints!
