  • @jweiblej I had this issue, it was caused by W3Cache, had to exclude *.xml pages so they did not get cached. Are you running a caching plugin?

    lol it is amazing the reviews on this nasty change to wordpress, whoever is behind the development of this has to be the most optimistic person in the world.

    It is getting worse with the latest update, have you tried changing block HTML manually? If not try it, good fun, well not really, but still. DO IT THE GUTENBERG WAY – OR ELSE!

    @christian1983 Cheers, thank you Sir.

    New XML looks great now with full size photos on Pinterest and not blurry 😊

    After some digging the plugin is using woocommerce_single to get the image size for the URL of the image for Pinterest.

    So I guess there is two fixes for this:

    1) Increase the size you are using for woocommerce single product images so a larger resolution image is used for Pinterest. However this might not be ideal for everyone.

    2) In my case I would like the full image for Pinterest which I also use on the single product page with zoom (size not defined with woocommerce_single in my theme ).

    So my fix:
    Edit Line 307 in:
    /wp-content/plugins/pinterest-for-woocommerce/src/ProductsXmlFeed.php

    Change:
    $image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( $image_id, ‘woocommerce_single’ );

    To:
    $image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( $image_id, ‘full’ );

    This will generate the full image URL in the XML file.

    I am not entirely sure how to override this within the theme functions and not modifying the plugin directly, alternately the developer could allow us to decide in the settings menu or just use the full size image by default.

    @christian1983 I am not sure I understand what you mean by: “what’ images do I want to be in the catalog?

    Should it not build the feed using the images from the $product->get_image_id() for each product which are the high resolution version of the product photos?

    Appreciate the support offer, but I would like to keep my comments public so others can benefit as well.

    Cheers.

    I should add it is version 1.06 and I just noticed my hosting provider just updated to PHP 7.4 (does that matter?) maybe, maybe it is the reason for all the challenges I have had.

    Appreciate the help, thanks again.

    Getting the same issue here, it is pulling the thumbnail images instead of the full resolution image.

    /wp-content/uploads/2022/02/image-416×415.jpg
    /wp-content/uploads/2022/02/image-2-416×415.jpg

    I have done the above steps over and over and same feed gets generated.

    @christian1983 Appreciate the help again, feed now can be seen by Pinterest. ( Version 1.04 )

    On another site I am working on, I noticed the plugin updated to 1.05, while trying to setup with 1.05 it literally tries to submit the feed before it is even generated, I tried repeatedly, something change in 1.05?

    Will keep 1.04 for now.

    Thank you again.

    @christian1983 @cyclesphases Thank you both very much for the help and ideas, getting a coffee in me and I will give it a go again. 😊

    Sure am, W3Cache, however disabled for 24 hours to see if that was the issue and it is not. Turned it back on, exclude the URL no go.

    The wget request downloads the entire XML with caching and without.

    Thank you again btw.

    *Update: So I seen in the support forum at the top how to disable a catalog, so I disable the catalog that failed and now Pinterest shows this error:

    Catalog needs attention
    Less than 50% of your catalog was successfully uploaded for one of your data sources. Fix these issues to continue.

    *shrug*

    Thank you for the reply, I am still trying to get verified … lol. I have no other URL except for the one submitted.

    Do you happen to know another plugin that “actually” works until this one is fixed?

    Test from a Remote server with wget, file is definitely not 404 and is readable.

    *Update

    I turned on logging to have a look what is going on, so it seems Pinterest can see the correct URL after all, however it is sending back a 404 error.

    54.236.1.0 – – [14/Feb/2022:02:31:55 -0500] “GET /wp-content/uploads/pinterest-for-woocommerce-bCkEl3.xml HTTP/1.1” 404 71900 www.***.com “-” “Pinterest/0.2 (+http://www.pinterest.com/)” “-”

    I hid my url with *** above. I did chmod 755 the xml file and pinterest still 404’s when trying to find it….

    I am having the same issue and what looks like is happening is the plugin or pinterest is truncating the URL.

    Actually Source URL created by the plugin.
    /pinterest-for-woocommerce-1mMbIU.xml

    What Pinterest Shows for the Source URL
    ../erce-1mMbIU.xml

    Is the URL too long?

    You can fix this by adding the feed URL manually on Pinterest with Add Data Source, however it will then add duplicates of your catalog even though the second one shows *failed and give you poor tag health errors…

    This would be an ok fix, however you cannot delete the catalog submitted by the plugin, you can only delete the catalog you manually submitted, here is where it gets “funnier”.

    if you delete the manual catalog it deletes all your products, but if have a catalog that errors + the correct catalog it will add two catalogs. 😂

    I have trying to solve this for the last 3 hours, if you figure anything out, I am all ears.
