Thanks so much for covering this! It's the most fiddly and frustrating part of using the Google sales channel by far, in fact I suspect it's what puts a lot of people off. I find it hard sometimes to understand why Google insists on specific metadata for certain products - makes no sense! And as for finding the right category, sometimes it's easy - like for a necklace - but sometimes there just doesn't seem to be a suitable one, like for metal art signs for instance. Lots of head-scratching. And as for the shipping policies, it's impossible to find one that suits what mine actually is. That said, I have had organic sales from free listings so I guess it's worth it!
The other thing Google does sometimes is randomly add a colour to the end of my product title, taken from my variant listing - resulting in my getting errors for titles that are too long!! I mean - wtf!!

Yeh they are adding a lot more random stuff in these days
You need to use shipping labels then. Use a custom feed to make it. Normally the easiest way if it doesn’t suit
@@NikArmenis ah ok, didn't know about this - will look into it. Thanks 😀
How do you go about actually changing the titles?
Best bet is to set your app to work of the seo titles and update those. Otherwise you can do it manually or through a supplemental feed
