About the Developer
This extension was developed by and is supported by MagentoCore
TheFind Feed 18 18works great ON 1.7. just SCROLL DOWN AND FOLLOW PRECISE ankurrana instructions April 10, 20121.4.1.1 Can not install, error March 2, 2012I use Feed Pro extension to generate and upload product feed to TheFind. Works great. November 2, 2011As someone already mentioned you don't need this extension if you have the current version. I believe 1.4.2 and above have TheFind included. For me TheFind wasn't working out of the box. The product and image URLs were relative so it was causing an error. Also, attributes were displaying their IDs instead of their text versions. I came up with a quick solution here: http://josephbill.com/modifying-magento-thefind-module-to-actually-work/ I hope this helps someone. September 6, 2011On TheFind Merchant Center Go to Product Info > Product Feed Setup. Settings URL: Your store URL. (ie: http://www.mystore.com/) Feed Format: TheFind File Type: .txt Notification: Any option will do but for the first setup i would recommend on every import then you can always change it. After you have completed that step TheFind will make you create your FTP account. Write down your username & password. Now for the Magento Part In the Magento Admin go to System > Configuration > TheFind > Feed Settings FTP Server: ftp.thefind.com FTP Path: / FTP User: Your TheFind FTP username TheFind Feed Filename: anyname.txt FTP Password: Your TheFind FTP password Update TheFind Item when Product is Updated: Yes Cron Frequency: I set mine to daily. According to TheFind, at minimum it must be updated every 7 days. Cron Hour: anyone will do just fine. Next step will actually be configuring the mapping of Magento Data to TheFind Data. In the Magento Admin, go to Catalog > TheFind Feed > Manage attributes You’ll need five attributes, at minimum, to get your product to appear on TheFind. Click on “Add new” at the top and match the following attributes: Import Code Eav Code Is imported Title name Yes Description description Yes Price price Yes Page_Url url_path Yes Image_Link image Yes Finally Add your items! In the Magento Admin, go to Catalog > TheFind Feed > Manage Items Pick the items you want to add and click publish from the action drop down in the top right corner of the grid. TheFind says it can take 24-72 hours before your items appear but mine appeared instantly. How to Test to see if you’re publishing? You can log into TheFind’s FTP server with your given username and password you used in the step above and see if your txt file is in the root directory. Then after a couple days search your company name on TheFind and see if your items are there. July 20, 2011i don't see how this works at all. I have Magento 1.5 and this is pre-installed. When I go to "Catalog" --> TheFind feed --> manage attributes nothing shows. May 15, 2011Try installing on 1.4.1.1, got an error. magento-core/Find_Feed requires package "magento-core/Mage_Core_Modules" (version >= 1.4.2.0, version <= 1.4.3), installed version is 1.4.1.1 Install Errors No valid packages found PEAR ERROR: install failed Basically it will only support 1.4.2 or newer :( February 16, 2011Hi I have succesfully installed this extension (1.4.1.1) and think I have entered all the settings in the configuration panel correctly and activated the products I would like to upload. However no file is uploaded to TheFind servers. Do I need to schedule a cron job for this to work or should this work automatically when I run the cron.php in the main directory? Note to developer, please enable the forums for this extension so at least someone that has been successful with this extension could post their comments rather than spamming your Reviews ;-) November 25, 2010ok i installed this one: "magento-core/Find_Feed-1.0.6" but i think is not working also when i submit it says successfull but it'l like 1000 products in about 1-2 seconds. i dont think it's that fast to submit 1000 product to the find. not even google is that fast. so good luck. ps. it wouldnt hurt to put some structions. November 21, 2010i think this is not working and is missing a lot of steps before it works (i'm using version1.4.1.1) magento-core/Mage_Pear_Helpers requires package "pear/PEAR" (version >= 1.6.2) magento-core/Lib_Google_Checkout requires package "magento-core/Mage_Pear_Helpers" (version >= 1.0.18800) magento-core/Mage_Core_Modules requires package "magento-core/Lib_Google_Checkout" (version >= 1.4.0.0, version <= 1.4.1, excluded versions: 1.4.1) magento-core/Find_Feed requires package "magento-core/Mage_Core_Modules" (version >= 1.4.1.1, version <= 1.4.2, excluded versions: 1.4.2) magento-core/Lib_Js_Calendar requires package "magento-core/Mage_Pear_Helpers" (version >= 1.0.18800) magento-core/Lib_Js_Prototype requires package "magento-core/Mage_Pear_Helpers" (version >= 1.0.18800) magento-core/Lib_Js_Mage requires package "magento-core/Lib_Js_Prototype" (version >= 1.6.0.3.0, version <= 1.6.1, excluded versions: 1.6.1) magento-core/Lib_ZF requires package "magento-core/Mage_Pear_Helpers" (version >= 1.0.18800) magento-core/Lib_Varien requires package "magento-core/Lib_ZF" (version >= 1.9.6.0, version <= 1.9.7.0, excluded versions: 1.9.7.0) magento-core/Lib_ZF_Locale requires package "magento-core/Mage_Pear_Helpers" (version >= 1.0.18800) Install Errors No valid packages found PEAR ERROR: install failed November 21, 2010- Q&A
