Just had an email from Google. Thought at first it was pointing out errors in my own website but no it seems it’s Folksy is has an issue with :
Not much I can do about that .
Anyone else had a similar message ? or is it just that I have an official Google business acccount… (but not linked to my Folksy shop)
Mine is okay. Have you tried deleting Google from Folksy and then put it back again.
My first thought would be - is the message for real or a scam, The sender address looks OK but I’d do some searching before I clicked on that link.
Though of course, if you don’t, you can’t find out which pages it’s complaining about
I’m pretty sure this is a genuine, non spam message.
It doesn’t matter though which pages it is objecting to as there is absoloutely zero I can do about them. This appears to be a Folksy site issue and I have no control over that.
It complains about lots and lots and lots of pages. I have good antivirus on my laptop and if there was anything amiss with the links it would have screamed at me.
It doesn’t seem to like my collections links : eg
and
This is one of the many things it is picking out…Not a clue what it means it objects to
Maybe I need to forward the email to Folksy support as it’s obviously nothing i can fix. ?
I would Joy as you said nothing you can do.
I think it may have arisen via Google Analytics as my shop is of course registered there.
Not registered on my Business account… that points to my other shop
Wierd then.
I can see maybe collections links are actually code that generates pages so it might not like then if it’s looking for Products.
But the rest of the screenshot you sent is meaningless, it shouldn’t object to fields whuch are optional not being there
Did you do something to set up Google Console? I vaguely remember a message about it somewhere but i just clicked on by.
No not done anything. Think it’s just part and parcel of my Google business account and Google Analytics. it did mention GA as one of my properties when I drilled down a bit. And of course it is only recently that GA has moved from the previous version *A4 whatever that was called, so maybe it’s doing a catchup.
