 * Hi Pixel Caffeine team,
 * I found that the main-product-catalog.xml has wrong additional_image_link format.
   
   According to Google Merchant Center guide, the additional_image_link in XML format
   is
 * <g:additional_image_link>[http://www.example.com/image2.jpg</g:additional_image_link&gt](http://www.example.com/image2.jpg</g:additional_image_link&gt);
   
   <g:additional_image_link>[http://www.example.com/image3.jpg</g:additional_image_link&gt](http://www.example.com/image3.jpg</g:additional_image_link&gt);
 * but created by plugin is
    <g:additional_image_linkhttp://www.example.com/image2.
   jpg,[http://www.example.com/image3.jpg</g:additional_image_link&gt](http://www.example.com/image3.jpg</g:additional_image_link&gt);
 * It mix the XML and Text format, that will make Google can’t crawl the images 
   and show worng message in Merchant Center.
 * Google Merchant Center guide

 * Hi,
 * that field can define multiple images, and it’s also a best practice do that,
   and it’s allowed to use the comma to specify multiple images in the same field.
   It’s described here [https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-api/catalog/reference/#da-commerce](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-api/catalog/reference/#da-commerce),
   but also in the link you posted: [https://snipboard.io/87Pq64.jpg](https://snipboard.io/87Pq64.jpg)
 * So, everything is ok 🙂

 * Thanks for your reply.
    According to the the snapshot with red highlight, it 
   is Text feeds format. Pixel Caffeine create XML feeds format.
 * I will get warring msg in Google Merchant Center, or I shouldn’t use this product
   feed both at Facebook and Google Merchant Center?
 * Best Regards.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your details. Just for confirmation, did you have any error messages
   from Facebook about the wrong format of that field?
 * I’d be happy to change the format, but I saw (I’m not able to find the doc) that
   the format with the comma is correct also for XML, but I might be wrong or it
   might be changed recently (I don’t find any changelog where it’s specified).
 * I’ll try to put in the backlog the format change as soon as possible if needed.
   
   Let me know.

 * Hi,
 * I released the new version of the plugin with this format request. If you had
   problems with the previous format, please upgrade the plugin to 2.1.2 in order
   to fix it! 🙂
 * Have a nice day!
