Prefix in URL causes issues with Google Ads

Technical Q&A
1

Hello!

I once downloaded an app that was supposed to translate my store, did not really work so I deleted it not thinking much of it.

Now that I am running google ads, my merchant center is blocking 300+ product/variants because the URL is giving a 404. I noticed that it’s because some products have a /sv (swedish) in the URL. When I delete the /sv the product showes up.

Example:

this is how it should be: https://www.autodex.se/products/zink-alu-spray-rostskydd-upp-till-300-c

This is what it’s showing google merchant center: https://www.autodex.se/sv/products/zink-alu-spray-rostskydd-upp-till-300-c

How do I update the URL’s to remove the language prefix? If i were to make redirects, I’d have to do it for 300+ variants and that’s very time consuming.

Please help

Thanks,

First check where are the products coming from. Meaning which feed, is it automatic, is I google and youtube, etc.

You can check between automatic and feed here: https://merchants.google.com/mc/products/sources
