Integrating Google Search API to AC Gold

[marty@web2market]

Hello,

We are trying to use the instructions posted in this article: http://wiki.ablecommerce.com/index.php/ ... to_AC_Gold. However we are not getting any results. We have added our cx variable according to the instructions but still nothing. You can see the page we have setup here: http://debug.ntwonline.com/GoogleSearch.aspx?q=tire. Any ideas what we may be doing wrong?

What website URL you used in Google Account? ntwonline.com or debug.ntwonline.com ? It seems like debug.ntwonline.com is not indexed by Google so that may be the reason its not able to find any results. If this is the case then try using ntwonline.com in Google account while configuring your Google search.

We originally set it up with debug.ntwonline. We just switched it to ntwonline.com like you suggested, but it still doesn't return anything. I put the pages on the live site to see if it might work there, but that didn't return any results either.

From google control panel, edit your search engine and update 'Sites to search' field value to *.ntwonline.com. You can now confirm if you have set everything up correctly by providing your cx value here

Code: Select all

www.google.com/search?cx={YOUR-CX-VALUE}

If this return results, you have setup correctly and it should work on your website.

We have updated that value and tried this on both debug.ntwonline.com and www.ntwonline.com and it still doesn't return any results. When we use "google.com/search?cx=..." it DOES return results though. Any ideas what might be the problem here?
