Product Mash: How do you automatically generate feeds for multiple Actinic sites
The Product Mash stores different feed options for each site. If you want to automatically upload the feed for 3 different sites you need to change site within Actinic before running the Product Mash. This can be done in 2 different ways:
1 Use One Stop Automation with the Multi-site module and configure the running of the feed as described in the help.
2 Write a batch file that starts Actinic and gets it to change sites just before running the Product Mash. An example of how to do this is shown below:
a). Run Notepad.exe (Press the Start button and select Run, then type in notepad.exe and clock OK).
b). Type in the following text into Notepad
"C:\Program Files\Actinic v8\Catalog.exe" /s "Site1" /q
"C:\Program Files\MoleEnd\Utilities\FroogleMash\V8\ME_FroogleMash.exe" -B -M -U -F Googlebase
"C:\Program Files\Actinic v8\Catalog.exe" /s "Site2" /q
"C:\Program Files\MoleEnd\Utilities\FroogleMash\V8\ME_FroogleMash.exe" -B -M -U -F Googlebase
"C:\Program Files\Actinic v8\Catalog.exe" /s "Site3" /q
"C:\Program Files\MoleEnd\Utilities\FroogleMash\V8\ME_FroogleMash.exe" -B -M -U -F Googlebase
c). Make sure that you replace the "Site1", "Site2" etc. with the names of your sites. Save the file as C:\UploadFeeds.cmd.
d). Change�the program to run in the Windows scheduler to C:\UploadFeeds.cmd. This is shown below:
