Hi,

Could anyone shed some light on this as I can't really pretend to understand...

Google Merchant Listings is complaining about some of my products and says:

Either "url" or "contentUrl" should be specified (in "image")
Items with this issue are invalid. Invalid items are not eligible for Google Search's rich results

I'm using v7.5.3.

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve, have you run one the affected products through the testing tool to see what you get?

Hi David,

Yes I have - the message I posted was directly from GWT but I get the same issue using using the url you suggested.
If you want to try it to have a look here's one of the urls:

mymainwebsite in my profile /Glass-Om-Votive-Tea-Light-Holder

I was just curious what is showing for the image path?

David

Hi David,

In GWT the highlighted code doesn't seem to show an image path for any structured data, only images related to the relative paths for proddetail images.

Is there a way ECT can automatically generate the contentUrl that google is asking for in the structured data?

Thanks,

Steve

So I've managed to solve this one

For anyone else encountering this:

We name our images with hyphens as separators but in a few cases spaces had been left in by maistake.
Whilst ECT will cope with this and still show the images, google obviously can't make sense of an image url with spaces.
