Shipping Variable for Google Feed

[bambeebumble]

Wondering if anyone can help...
Google stipulates that you should provide a per item shipping cost & that it should be labelled 'shipping'

The problem I've got is that if I try to create a variable with the name 'shipping' Actinic says that name already exists ie is already being used in a standard layout & won't allow its creation.

I have tried naming the variable under a different name such as "Delivery" then changing it manually in the feed to shipping using excel but Google just rejects it- It has to have the title 'Shipping' when the feed is created.

Just interested to hear how other people have got around the 'Shipping' variable feed problem.

the only way you could do it with Actinic would be to rename the column after you have generated the file.

I have plugin that includes shipping autmatically in the output though, more details and a free trial here :

Thanks Jan,

I have tried renaming the column in the feed after it has been created in Actinic but Google rejects it for some reason.

Will try to find out why and post solution.

What error do you get?

I would have thought that if you open the file created by Actinic then do a search and replace of delivery for shipping it should work.
