Installing the DC Merchant Centre Plugin

Upload the plugin to the /plugins folder in your nopCommerce directory.

Restart your application (or click 'Reload list of plugins' button).

Scroll down through the list of plugins to find the newly installed plugin.

Click on the 'Install' link to install the plugin.

Note: If you're running nopCommerce in medium trust, then it's recommended to clear your \Plugins\bin\ directory

Configuring the DC Merchant Centre Plugin

Firstly you will need to do some code changes in the Web.Config. Only a small change.

You only need to do this change for nopCommerce versions 3.6 and below

In the Web.Config find where the dependant assemblies are written.

There will be an assembly called Newtonsoft.Json.

Replace that with the following code:

Save the file.

Our plugin requires a higher version of Newtonsoft.Json but nopCommerce, 3.6 and below, uses v6. This peice of code gives us v6 but fakes it as being v7, allowing our plugin to run.

Go to the backend of the website and navigate to the plugins list.

Click the configure button on the plugin.

Follow the steps on the images below

You will come to the configuration page. Your Merchant ID is the number you got from Google Merchant. Client ID is the ID you received from Google Developer Console. Client Secret is the ID you also got from Google Developer Console. Fill these in and click the request access button.

You will then have an Access Token and Refresh token showing in the configuration page.

The product prefix input is used for when you have multiple shops going to one merchant center. The product prefix will prefix a character to the product id before it is uploaded to the merchant center. You can use whatever prefix you like here to distinguish products between sites.

Ticking allow custom goods will allow google to pick up your products.

Currency and Target country are set depending on where you are selling from.

Prices consider promotions is used to update prices so that they are changed when there is a promotion or deal on that product.

Default Product Upload Rule allows you to decide whether to upload all of the products on your website or to exclude all products from being uploaded. Changing this value will remove all products from the update queue.

We have given you the ability to override this option per product, on the edit product page ->
Edit Product > Google Shopping Category. If you change the Default Product Upload Rule again, it will reset the override value on any product you have overridden.

Required Fields

For a product to successfully upload to Google Merchant Center, you need the following fields to be set per product:

Title
Description

MPN

You may run into issues if any of these are not set, you can view the system log to find out which fields are missing from a product.

Scheduled Task

A scheduled task will run every 5 minutes that will upload any products that have changed to the google merchant center.

It will also check to see if any products have been changed since it last uploaded and reupload them if they have changed.

The Scheduled Task will also upload products that have not changed in 20 days to prevent Google from removing valid products from the Merchant Center.

Google Merchant Center

When using the Google Merchant Center shipping charges should be defined in Google Merchant Center. This is so that Google can compare shipping prices between products.

Follow the steps on the images below

Shipping settings are country specific, so there needs to be shipping settings for each country you ship to.

As the products are sent to Google Merchant Center they will be assessed to see if they comply to Googles Standards. It will tell you what the product fails on if it does fail. Like so:

Google will also tell you what it did receive. If your products comply with the Google Standards they will be accepted and begin to be shown on Google shopping.
