OK, we will check WP Cron.

But yesterday we had another strange behave. Our archive format is .zip and the file backup yesterday was made as a .tar
All other backups are .zip as in the setting.
Would it be possible that something goes wrong with the change from old version to the new dashboard?
We are currently considering whether to uninstall the plugin and start from scratch. What do you think?

Our current time zone is Vienna and this is correct.

If we start manually a backup the timestamp is also correct in Backup list.

Yesterday we disabled all scheduled backups only the database backup should run at 23:50 (11:50pm)
It starts at 4:05 and after 1 minute it stopped with the log entry
“Compressing files as a Zip archive. Please wait a moment.”
No more log entry and no end of the backup. I stopped it now at 1 pm a day later.
If I start it manually it doesn’t need more than 100 seconds and runs well.

Same with the other backups – manually everything is ok.
With scheduled time start they start on any time but not on the time we have in the setting and than they stop with an error. But run well when we start manually.

Old version worked well. We deleted all legacy backups when we changed to new version.

Thank you so much.
We started the feed now and edit the xml so only 3 products were uploaded for test where we have added our custom field to WooCommerce product page. The product picture works well!

We only have a problem with sales prices. In the feed there is the sales price for example
<g:sale_price>108.75</g:sale_price>
In this form Google Merchant center does not import it. It need to be 108.75 EUR
We tried it with default and price output filter but both settings with same result.
We can edit it in xml file but our goal is finaly have API connection to the Merchant Center.

What do we wrong?

Hi,
unfortunately I was not able to write the idea to a feature request with the provided link but I think that this feature would help not only us to have the product pictures watermarked on the shop pages. More important is for us to have the brand clear in the product picture for our customers because we offer same product from different brands (qualities). Google Merchant does also not allow brand logos on any place on the product picture – it doesn’t matter if it is outside the product area 🙁

Hi,
thank you for your quick answer.

I think best practice would be to upload this picture in a custom field only for google merchant center. Our theme TheGem provides a custom field but we did not use it up to now. But they offer field type, Text, Number or Link so I think this should work.

In our case best solution would be if we can add 1 picture only for Google Merchant to our product in a smaller dimension.
So we need not to change all product picuteres and meta in all languages for the pictures only add 1 more without watermark to each product.
Hopefully I find a plugin which offers this.

Yes you did understand correct.
The problem is, that Google Merchant will deaktivate/delete all products with watermarked pictures. So all our shop pictures are now not valid and this is crazy.
I am wondering how all other shop this fix because I think a lot of them will have watermarked pictures in their online shops.

Question
If we would manual replace the product picture in google merchant center will this picture be fixed then?What I mean is if we have changes in the woocomemrce shop for example price, color, availability etc…) will a product update change the picture on the product or does it not touch settings which were made manual in the Google Merchant Center on the product?

Unfortunately your recommended plugin does not work with new woocommerce because it is incompatible with WooCommerce feature ‘High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)’ and there was no update in the last 9 months 🙁
