@Ashley.. You are right, my bad. Although for anyone in my position where I have 90K products and want all of them available via Google Checkout it is an option… The script works, but on that many products it takes a while, and with daily updates it may never end!

@Greg Don't change core files!. Also that might mean that new products (where the boolean is correct) would be disabled instead of enabled? Certainly if you do what Greg suggests, make a local copy of the core file, and test it first before making the change in production.

You could just change the function in /app/code/core/Mage/GoogleCheckout/Block/Link.php to reverse the check:

public function getIsDisabled()
{
$quote = Mage::getSingleton(‘checkout/session’)->getQuote();
/* @var $quote Mage_Sales_Model_Quote */
foreach ($quote->getAllVisibleItems() as $item) {
/* @var $item Mage_Sales_Model_Quote_Item */
if (!$item->getProduct()->getEnableGooglecheckout()) {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}

That’s really odd, because normally if it is grey you can’t click it. Can you check the URL of the image?

I have google checkout enabled, but i get the grayed out logo. If you click the logo it takes you to checkout. Am I missing something in your fix. Do I have to manually override it somehow?

I have written about about how to bulk update your Magento products to enable them for Google Checkout. Let me know how you go.

Much needed SQL update script for this problem. I want to fix the database once and for all, as at present I simply disable this check.
1000′s of products, so yes, Magento WILL crash..

You can bulk update magento products by doing this:
1) Go to Catalog -> Manage products
2) Click the ‘select all’ link and it should show ‘X items selected’
3) Under the Actions drop down choose ‘update attributes’ then submit.
4) This takes you to a bulk update page, where you can choose to change the Google Checkout status for all of your products.

If you have 1000′s of products this might time out or crash. In which case let me know because I will write some SQL to do it and post it here. But only if there is a need for it.

Cheers,
Ashley

I just ran into this after upgrading to 1.3.0.

Does this mean that I will have to manually update HUNDREDS of products to “Yes” or is there a global setting somewhere? I’ve searched around and don’t see a global setting but thought perhaps someone else has found it.

Thanks!
