Hi, I installed version 6.6.0 today. There seems to be a problem with the XML export. I made a new template and the XML body looks like this:

<item>
<g:id>[id]</g:id>
<g:title>[title]</g:title>
<g:description>[description]</g:description>
<g:link>[link]</g:link>
<g:condition>[condition]</g:condition>
<g:price>[price]</g:price>
etc.

But when I save, the body looks like this:
[id]
[title]
[description]
[link]
[condition]
[price]

Also, the 'save on server' doesn't seem to work. The export looks like it's running ok, but I cannot find my file anywhere on the server (not in my output folder or in de CSVI tmp export folder).

Do you have a fix?

Thats correct, CSVI converts it to XML fields format.

Also, the 'save on server' doesn't seem to work. The export looks like it's running ok, but I cannot find my file anywhere on the server (not in my output folder or in de CSVI tmp export folder).

Do you have a fix?

The file would have been saved in the path you have given in Save on server option. Can you check the permission of your output folder?
Kind regards,

Tharuna

I'm sorry but that's not correct, without the tags I have no valid XML output (see attached file). In my previous install (6.5.7.) the tags remained intact.

Can you check the permission of your output folder?


This issue seems to be solved.

Also, my google feed is broken now: http://www.saintbasics.com/export/google/google.xml

Didn't change anything in that template, just updated from 6.5.7. to 6.6.0.

Thanks for a quick solution!

The patch seems to work because on my dev site, my XML output is now ok:
http://shop.saintbasics.com/export/google/google2.xml

However, on my live site I get this output:
http://www.saintbasics.com/export/google/google.xml

I rebuilt the template on the dev site from scratch, because I could not import the template from my live site.
The template on my live site was not changed.

Any hints of what might be going wrong on the live site?

Hello,

There are a couple of issues with the XML. First of all the <g:link> field has no domain name. Make sure that is set in the global configuration of CSVI. The second issue is that the & in the URL is not escaped. So there are 2 options here, either enable SEF URLs so there won't be any & in the URL or edit the field that outputs the link and set the CDATA option to Yes.

That should fix the XML feed.
Kind regards,

RolandD

Another small bug in 6.6.0

In rules > export > CSVO replace (regular text), the html tags are also stripped in the search/replace fields.

This means I cannot replace a <br /> with \\n anymore (e.g. in a product_desc).

Can you also patch this up? Thnx!
