Google Shopping Feed being blocked by robots.txt

[sparrowdog]

I had created a manual Google Shopping Feed that was working fine, and then someone well meaning put a block in my robots.txt file so Google couldn't read the images folder. because of this, Google now won't accept my feed.

I changed the robots.txt file to allow them to read the images again, but it's been 3 days now and I'm still getting the error saying my products are disallowed because the robots.txt file won't let them scan for images.

Does anyone know how long it will take for Google to see it again?

When I manually fetch, the /images folder isn't on the list anymore.

For now I have just reuploaded the images in to a new folder and I'm creating my feed by hand, so that should get around it for now.

Thanks for your help.

Did you try manually fetching as Googlebot the robots.txt file via the webmaster tools? If not, do that, then click submit to index. Then do the same thing for some of the images or better if you have a file linking to all images (like an image sitemap). Once that is done, let Google recrawl everything for a few days (even a week) and try again.
