1 Category Manager v5 Emporium Plus / Miva CentralThe Category Manager module allows you to have multiple category templates in a single store. You can have a different template for every category in your store if you want. The templates use the standard store morph technology template editor in MIVA Merchant 5. While basic knowledge of how to edit MIVA Merchant 5 templates is required, there are two example templates provided in addition to the built in ctgy page template. Getting started is not that difficult. Don't miss our introductory price of this versatile module.

Protect your email addresses. This module keeps yourstore's email address out of view of spammer email address harvesters. It also allows you to easily change the email address you want inquiries to go to without editing html pages. Easy link to the contact form. You can launch the Contact Manager form from a button in the category column, in the nav bar or elsewhere within Merchant or from a static page. You can also easily use a http link format for launching the Contact Manager form from static pages or within Merchant. Assign the inquiry. The Contact Manager allows you to assign the contact record to a specific technician or department with ease. That technician can then find their active contacts easily. User interface look and feel. The Contact Manager form characteristics are controlled from the module's admin configuration screen. At the admin level you can change category column button text, optional category column button image, email subject, email to address, contact screen title, customer email prompt, customer inquiry prompt, background color, font face, font size, font color, message for the submission form, send button text, and optional send button image. Even for the html novice, the form's characteristics are easily altered in admin. In Merchant 5.x you can go a step farther if you are familiar with the store morph technology (SMT) and page template editing by fully customizing every aspect of the form. With the Merchant 5.x built in SMT you can make changes to the page and even rollback changes if you don't like what you see. Customer can choose department. The module allows the customer to select the target to send the inquiry to with a select list option. This expedites the delivery to the specific technician/department's email address. As with the uncompiled version, the email addresses are hidden from email harvesting spammers. Field inclusion and validation. Department codes, descriptions and email addresses are configured through admin. The standard collection fields are name, email, subject, department, and inquiry. However, you can also have an unlimited number of extra fields in the form. These fields can be required or optional. If required and the customer does not provide a response, the form will validate and redisplay so the missing info can be supplied. What extra fields you create and use is dependant on how you will use this contact form; e.g. requests for info, pricing, availability, product details, billing, shipping, or even for customer surveys prior to checkout. Autoresponse receipt verification. When the customer submits their inquiry, the module can optionally send them an autoresponse that you have received their inquiry and how soon you will get back to them. That autoresponse email is composed and customized by you through the admin panel. You can also include the contact tracking number in the subject of the contact emails and responses, e.g. [EP #925]: How do I..... Searchable contact records. The admin section allows you to search one one or more criteria to find messages you are interested in. You can then edit the status and/or respond to the sender. The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5. It also supports MySQL as long as load balancing has the data stored on the single MySQL server. This would be the case in most of the server setups. For those that are not, we are in the process of converting the code for that remaining, very small group of MIVA Merchant stores. At this time we have not had a problem. Modules will be moved to the top of the queue as needed. |

Back to TopThe StatCat module is both an admin module and a basket interface module. The primary purpose of StatCat is to generate static catalog pages (indexes and sub-pages) directly from your Miva Merchant products and category databases so that search engines will add your pages to their index. Presumably this will allow customers to find your store amongst the millions of web sites on the Internet. As such, the pages generated are basic html pages with links to sub-pages, basket page and individual product pages in your Miva Merchant system. Each page contains your store title, meta description, meta keywords, footers along with the products. Category pages also contain category headers and footers.
Although these are static html pages, they have direct links which allow customers to add the products to their basket which is maintained in your Miva Merchant shopping cart system. If you are using the CIM Inventory Manager or Miva Corp's new Inventory Manager (in Merchant 4.x), it will even check the stock level and return an out of stock message if stock level is depleted
** Caution: If you are using Merchant 4.0 and its Inventory Management system that deducts products from inventory when they are placed in the basket, you should select to NOT use the Add to Basket buttons if you have one-of-a-kind items. The reason for this is that some robots and other indexing software may even follow links which contain the ? and & characters. This could result in the stock level decrementing to zero and out-of-stock emails being sent. The products won't be removed from inventory completely, as they will be re-stocked when you run the Admin:Delete Expired Shopping Baskets. This undesirable situation does not exist in Merchant versions 2.x or 3.x. It is also not a problem in Merchant 4.x if your store does not use the Miva Corp Inventory Management or your product stock levels are not likely to be depleted with one or two passes of the indexing program.
The store owner determines which page the customer will go to when they select to add a product to the basket. They can be taken either to the basket for review or back to the static page they just selected from. Both processes are automatic and do not require Javascript or meta refresh routines. Either click through destination can be used on either of the sort options, store owner choice. In addition to the functionality of this module, it provides an excellent example of how to interface static pages with the Miva Merchant system with return to the correct static page.
Quick links on each sub-page allow the customer to return to the index or go straight to their basket for review and checkout.
Below the sub-pages the store owner can even generate individual product pages. These product pages contain the full sized image and description. If the store uses the Flexible Product Description module and the product record contains a Keyword field, those product specific keywords are added to the store's generic keywords which are already in all of the static pages.
The store owner can decide whether to display the price for each item on the static pages. Since these pages are static and cannot function interactively to determine customer price groups or discounts, the hide price routine has its place. However, if the store has no price groups and discounts are calculated on basket totals or discount coupons, the price listing is useful.
The static pages also have no way to restrict access. So if your store is one which does not allow certain products to be shown to all customers, then this module is not for you, unless you can place all of those restricted products in specific categories. In which case, you could then sort pages by category and simply delete those categories' pages.
This module is for Miva Merchant 2.x, 3.x and 4.x. It works with both the Miva Merchant look and feel (mmui.mv) and the OpenUI look and feel (oui.mv). If using the mmui.mv, there are two edits that need to be made to the mmui.mv file.
StatCat produces pages similar (mirror) to the layout in Miva Merchant with admin control. The following configuration settings are made within the standard Miva Merchant admin interface: Page title, home URL, optional title/store logo, title background color, title foreground color, category title header size, number of product columns on the category sort page, Meta description of the site, Meta keywords on the site, return action after adding a product to the basket, option to hide the prices, category column background color, category column foreground color, category column font, category column size, product background color in the category sorted pages, product foreground color in the category sorted pages, product font and size in the category sorted pages, optional display of thumbnail images in the category sorted pages, store front page welcome screen, search button input, product descriptions on category pages, and page footer.
Once generated, the index pages can be linked to your main home page. The catalog can be left in the directory it is generated in or copied to any web site (or multiple web sites) to increase search engine visibility. The links to images and back to your Merchant.mv store will work across servers. An example of this remote distribution can be seen at my Yahoo/Simplenet web site. The limitation to the remote distribution is that these remote static pages are one way, ie. placing a product in the basket will take the customer to the main Merchant.mv, but not back to the remote static page. They would then continue shopping in Merchant.mv. This limitation exists only if the static pages are not in their original catalog directory. If they are in the catalog directory on the local server with Merchant.mv, then return to the static pages is one of your options in admin.
The StatCat also has the ability to generate static pages which can be placed on a disk and used as a catalog which can be mailed or given out to potential customers. When using this option, links to your web site or the shopping cart are suppressed. An example of this type of catalog can be seen online. It has no links to the cart and the images are virtual to the static html pages.
When generating the catalog, the store owner has the option of restricting the html output to a list of specific categories. This is particularly useful when the store owner wants to place their static pages on remote servers which have specific themes in a mall environment. Some categories may "fit in" and some may not. This also might be useful if you want to create disks with only certain categories of products on them to be given to customers.
Note 1: StatCat uses the first letter of the product name to name the sub-pages. If you use illegal characters for the first letter of product names, you will not be able to generate the by-name catalog. An example would be the left bracket, as some might have put the font tag at the beginning of the product name. If that is the case, use the by-category catalog.
Note 2: If you have an excessively large products database, you will probably not be able to run StatCat on a server without timing out. However, you should be able to run it in MivaMia if you have a mirror of your store on your PC. You would then need to upload the static pages manually. This store of 600 products took about 5 seconds to generate the category pages.
Example static catalog pages
Several new features have been added to the compiled version; background image, functional navigation bar, "smart" metatags, extensive implementation of keyword and header and footer usage, product page names can be product code or name ending with html, inclusion of product links at the top or bottom listed as featured products or similar designation, include any fields in the products database on product pages (including modified structure), optionally hide subcategories on category pages as applicable, additional product page links such as "check availability or latest prices", and export to any directory within the store's path (creates directory if it does not exist). Discontinued (inactive) products can continue to have modified static pages generated so that search engine links remain viable, yet do not result in errors when linked to the store. Additionally, affiliate codes can be included with every link so that the static catalog pages can be given to affiliates who wish to mirror your catalog at their site. If you are using the OpenUI, StatCat adds "smart" metatags to your merchant.mv so that when the customers (and search engines) click from your static pages to your actual store, the pages will contain metatags related to category headers, product descriptions and product keywords (if used). It also reverses the title tag with the category and product screens so that the category or product name appear first, then the store name. If your store has our Volume Pricing module version (4.53 or higher) installed, StatCat can optionally include the volume price table on the static pages. When creating the static product pages, a flat file is created in the background which can be used for a data feed file for submission to FroogleTM. It contains the header and data for the basic file format.

Feature Details. You can sort the categories by name, code, or entry date. Many stores find that their categories are best sorted by category code rather thancategory name. This way they can create codes which will put their categoriesin the order they want. While most may actually coincide with category namesbeing alphabetical, stores can rearrange the categories to put things like "Specials"or "Close Out" at the top of bottom of the list. The customer does not see the category code, they only see the results of the sorted list. The products can be sorted by name, code, price, or entry date. The product sorting can be done either as either ascending or descending. Moststores will sort the products by name. The very quick sort is done storewide with a couple button clicks. The storewide sort results in the products being sorted in all of the category screens, the product list screen, and the search screen. You can sort the products within individual categories differently than the sorting in the store at large. So while the product list and most categories might be sorted alphabetically, you could have others sorted by price as ascending or descending. You can sort theproducts by a specific category and then on the next screen, make minor changes to re-arranged that sorting. This gives you the ability to move certain products to thetop for more customer visibility. You can also move to the top of the list up to 999 product codes in the orderyou want them. They can appear before any other products on the product list, search and each category screen. This ability to assign a sort order number also makes it possible to display an image, e.g. new or hot, to all products with a sort order number less than the trigger you assign using a token. You can also elect to count the products in each category. If you do, the counts willbe available at runtime in Merchant. By having the data in a quick lookup table, Merchant does not have to count the products in each category as it displays the category list in a 3rd party module's category tree. It simply shows the previously stored totals. This option cannot be used in stores which use availability groups to hide products fromsome customers because the totals would show the amounts for all products in eachcategory. The sorter module uses a token to display the products-in-category total after the category name if you are using a 3rd party category tree template module. The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5. It also supports MySQL as long as load balancing has the data stored on the single MySQL server. This would be the case in most of the server setups. For those that are not, we are in the process of converting the code for that remaining, very small group of MIVA Merchant stores. At this time we have not had a problem. Modules will be moved to the top of the queue as needed. Price: $27.95 Upgrade Cost: $0

Back to Top8 Discount Based on Quantity by Category v5 Emporium Plus / Miva CentralVolume pricing at the category level. Easily offer a fixed discount (not percentage) based on the number of items in the basket and the categories those items are in. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.Features: - Discount based on number of items ordered - Set up to 4 tiers of discounts per category group - Can have 8 groups (each containing one or more categories), each with 4 different discount tiers - Category wide, multi-category or store wide discounts - Optionally apply discount after other discounts have lowered the subtotal - Discount shows at checkout as separate line item - Optionally display updated discount in basket prior to checkout - Can use wildcard instead of entering category codes for the group - Can either include or exclude a single price group, e.g. Wholesale, to be able to use the discount Feature Details: In admin, the store owner configures the trigger levels (number of items needed to activate the discount) and thecorresponding fixed amount off. The store owner can designate 1 - 4 trigger levels so that he/she can vary thediscount based on the number bought. Reward the customer; the more the customer buys, the higher the discount. The storeowner then includes a list of category codes that willbe used in the calculation. Use this module for category-wide or store-wide fixed discounts. If using store-wide, make sure the discount doesn't exceed the priceof the potentially summed products. If using category-wide,make sure the discount does not exceed the price of the lowestpriced product in the category. The discount amount will appear during checkout on the screen after the customer has entered their shipping method. You can optionally display the discount in the basket prior to checkout. In admin you can setup eight separate groups withtheir own four-tiered discount and categories. Hence, if you want to discountone category of products with one set of rules (levels) and another category with a different set of rules, you can now do this. Multiple categories can be assigned to each group. As the basket is scanned, the discount is applied based on each group's rules, then summed together at checkout. You can optionally display the updated discounts prior to checkout in the regular basket screen, recalculating and updating discounts based on changing basket contents. You can choose one price group, e.g. Wholesale, which is not eligible for the discount since they presumably already benefit from significantly lower prices. Or if you don't want to exclude, you can include the one group. This would be useful if you want to apply a fixed amount off for that price group rather than use Merchant's percent off price group calculations. This would allow you to discount different fixed amounts from different groupings (categories) of products. You can use the asterisk (*) to replace the category codes. When the module encounters the asterisk instead of category codes, it considers all further products eligible. As example, the asterisk in the first group would make all products in the store eligible for the discount. On the other hand, category codes in the first group would apply the first group rules to those categories. Then if there is an asterisk in the second group, all other products in the store woulduse those discount rules. The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5. It also supports MySQL as long as load balancing has the data stored on the single MySQL server. This would be the case in most of the server setups.

Back to Top9 Power Search v5 Emporium Plus / Miva CentralThe purpose of Power Search is to allow a customer to search one or more fields which are allowed by the store owner. The store owner can choose any fields within the products database and/or the custom product fields (Miva Corp built-in utility module) database to be searchable. This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.
Feature Details. Easily editable templates. The module has five templates which can be used for each section of the search page. The templates have full versionhistory and use standard Merchant 5 template coding for easy update and rollback of changes. Each template is pulled into the location you want it on the search page using a render token. The templates are field selection, category selection,search scope/type, page counter and links, and product list layout. Search specific fields and sort results. Allow a customer to search one or more fields which are made selectable by the store owner. The store owner can choose, in the admin screen, any fields within the products database or the MIVA Merchant built in custom product fields database to be available. The Power Search module uses a mirror database of your products, custom fields and categories; much like the big search engines use. By creating a mirror before the search is made, many operations to join multiple databases togethercan be avoided, so the customer gets a much faster search. Customers can also sort the results on fields like name, code, price, cost, when they were added to the store, or the default display order the store owner established for productlists. The build of the mirror database goes quite quickly and is a maintenance procedure you will do periodically. The small amount of time you take to build the mirror will save your customers significant amounts of time in their searches vs searches which don't use an optimized mirror database. Buildingthe mirror is not required just because products are added, deleted, or edited; as those processes update the mirror automatically without needing a rebuild. See the install doc for details. Category selectable. Customers can use the category selector to select just one category to search. The default is to search the whole store. You can use the built in token which lists all categories with one or more products in them oryou can build your own select list of only certain categories. Multiple search types. The customer can select how they want to search the database. The default is to search for products where all (boolean AND) of the keywords entered are found in the record. The customer can broaden that search so that any (boolean OR) of the words are found in the record. They can search by exact phrase so that the words must appear in thesame order in the record as was entered in the search input. They can also search the fields where the data in the field begins with the search string. This is useful for things like finding all of the products whose NAME begins with a specific letter and allows you to have a list of A-Z links that implement that specific search. Advanced pagination. The module can display the total number of products found which match the search condition. Additionally, the pagesare numbered, e.g. Page 3 of 20, when results exceed the configurable number of products per page. You can also display alist of page numbers and links to those pages so the customer can jump to the page they want to look at. This pagination is similar to that used in the Emporium Plus Category Manager module. Product layout template can be customized. In the 'srch' page template, there is a "search results layout". If you are happy with that layout, you can copy and paste the contents of that template into the Power Search module's product layout template. You can then modify the layout in the Power Search admin screen. Price range searching. While searching the price field might be useful in some cases, a more popular search is price range. Within the searchable fields section, the customer has the option of entering a low and high price to create a range. If left blank, the search will not be filtered by price range. Tell a friend module interface. If the store is using the Emporium Plus Tell A Friend module, customers can send the search string from Power Search to friends. The link in the email will go to the same page of products that the customer was on when they clicked the Tell A Friend button. Return to search page link. After going to the product page from a Power Search rendered search, a convenient "return to search" link on the product page can bring the customer back to the original search page. Search log with admin report. In admin, you can view the log of search words/phrases which your customers have used. This helps you from a marketing standpoint to determine the most sought after products and possibly the need to carry a new product. Additionally, it helps you identify keywords which might be useful to include in the narrative descriptions or the meta tags for search engine submissions and even local searches in your store. As example, while you might have a product called flip flops, customers might be searching for thong sandals (which is the same thing). But if you had not used those words in your description, you may have lost the sale. The log can be purged in the admin screen to reduce its size as desired. Optimized search of built-in custom product fields. This module does not require that you use a proprietary 3rd party module for the custom product fields. It uses the built-in custom product fields module from MIVA Corp, thereby ensuring compatibility with other 3rd party modules which use those same custom product fields. No need to go down that proprietary datafield path of no return. As example, the Emporium Plus Template Data Feed module can use the built-in custom product fields to populate feeds to just about any search engine and shopping index with those "special" fields those indexes require. Live examples. We cannot link to our demo Merchant 5 store from MivaCentral so if you'd like to see a couple of the live pages demonstrating searches, please contact us for the link. You can check out the selected field search in our test store which has about 600 products with multiple custom product fields. Try some searches so you can get an idea of search speed. Pre-defined selectors. The Power Search function can also be used for pre-defined select pulldowns in your store. An example of genre and decade searches are in the lower left column of our test store's storefront screen. It will search a specific field, with store owner pre-defined selections. This same technique can be used for things like manufacturer searches if you have a manufacturer field in your custom product fields. Liberal licensing. License is for ONE domain/mall. Within that single mall, it can be used in multiple stores without additional licenses. This module requires that you are using MIVA Engine v5.03 or newer. When you log into admin, you can see which version of the engine is in use in your store.

Back to Top11 My Category Tree v5 Emporium Plus / Miva CentralThis module gives you template access to the actual links so you can change them to be more search engine friendly. MIVA Merchant 5 out-of-the-box does not currently provide template access to the category tree links. I suspect they probably will open it up some time in the future. Until then, this module gives you that access.
Feature Details. Category Tree Access: The category tree template can be edited from the store edit screen at the tab "My Category Tree" or from any of the page template screens. The template is global and as such, you only need tomake changes in one location. Those changes will be reflected in all of the screens you haveadded this template item to. If you have .htaccess re-write capability on your domain, you can even create directory style links. As an example, you can change a link like: http://www.pinemporium.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=1AA&Store_Code=PE into http://www.pinemporium.com/c/1AA/Software.html In addition to creating a short url, you can include the product or category name in the urlto provide more keyword visibility to search engines. Subcategory Navigation: You can list the subcategories of a parent category on the right (main) side of the screen, e.g. right under the parent category title/name. You can create multiple columns, thereby taking up less screen real estate when you have categories with large numbers of subcategories.

Back to Top12 Categories in Basket Screen v5 Emporium Plus / Miva CentralThe Categories in Basket Screen module provides enhanced display of your basket screen with: 1) categories the product is in, 2) thumbnail image of the product, and 3) combined prices of products + attributes into a single price for each product.This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x.We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.This module is licensed to one domain.It may be used in more than one store within the same domain without additional licensee fees. The tokens are added to the 'bask' and 'invc' page templates to implement the features you want to use in this component module. You can insert the category name directly below the product name in the Basket (BASK) and Invoice (INVC) screens.When a product is in more than one category, the module displays all of them.Each category name is linked to the corresponding category list screen in the Basket Screen. In addition to categories in the basket, the module also provides the url for the thumbnail image which can be displayed in the basket.The thumbnail display is not in the built-in basket display so this module provides that extra feature. Also, the module creates a basket price sum variable which can optionally be displayed in the basket and invoice.This price variable combines the product's basket base price with its attribute prices so that you can show the sum total for the product and hide the individual attribute prices in the basket.If you want to allow customers to see the amounts itemized, you can even make a link to the basket screen and pass a parameter that shows the basket with the product and attribute prices separated by using a conditional display.Creating a sum variable which is different from the original display variable was done to prevent potential conflict with other vendor's 3rd party modules.I could have intercepted the price and changed the variable used for regular price display, but that would likely have led to conflicts as more vendors create modules that effect price display in the basket.So instead, you have both variables and can choose which to display.For those who also want to have combined prices in the merchant and customer emails, you can use the Emporium Plus Mail Manager module which has tokens for this purpose.

Back to Top13 Percent Off Based on Quantity by Category v5 Emporium Plus / Miva CentralVolume pricing at the category level. Easily offer a discount based on the number of items inthe basket and the categories those items are in. This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.Features: - Discount based on number of items ordered - Set up to 4 tiers of discounts per category group - Can have 8 groups (each containing one or more categories), each with 4 different discount tiers - Category wide, multi-category or store wide discounts - Optionally apply discount after other discounts have lowered the subtotal - Discount shows at checkout as separate line item - Optionally display updated discount in basket prior to checkout using render token - Can use wildcard instead of entering category codes for the group - Can exclude a single price group, e.g. Wholesale, from receiving the discount Feature Details: Thedefault is to calculate product charges in the specifiedcategory(ies) (including attribute charges) to determinethe subtotal to discount. You canoptionally include non-product charges in the calculation. In admin, the store owner configures the triggerlevels (number of items needed to activate the discount) and thecorresponding percentage off. The store owner candesignate 1 - 4 trigger levels so that he/she can vary thepercentage discount based on the number bought. Reward thecustomer; the more the customer buys, the higher thediscount percentage. The storeowner then includes a list of category codes that willbe used in the calculation. Use this module forcategory-wide or store-wide discounts. The discount amount willappear during checkout on the screen after the customer hasentered their shipping method. This allows Merchant toinclude (optionally) any miscellaneous fees or coupons redeemedon the Shipping - Payment selection screen so the subtotal willbe adjusted before the discount. In admin you can setup eight separate groups withtheir own four-tiered discount and categories. Hence, if you want to discountone category of products with one set of rules (levels) and another categorywith a different set of rules, you can do this. Multiple categories can beassigned to each group. As the basket is scanned, the quantities are subtotaledfor each group. The discount is applied based on each group's rules, then summedtogether at checkout. You can optionally display the updated discounts prior to checkout in the regular basket screen, recalculatingand updating discounts based on changing basket contents. In admin, you can chooseone price group, e.g. Wholesale, which is not eligible for the discount since theypresumably already benefit from significantly lower prices. You can use the asterisk(*) to replace the category codes. When the module encounters the asterisk instead ofcategory codes, it considers all further products eligible. As example, the asterisk inthe first group would make all products in the store eligible for the discount. On the other hand,category codes in the first group would apply the first group rules to those categories.Then if there is an asterisk in the second group, all other products in the store woulduse those discount rules. The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5. It also supports MySQL as long as load balancing has the data stored on the single MySQL server. This would be the case in most of the server setups. For those that are not, we are in the process of converting the code for that remaining, very small group of MIVA Merchant stores. At this time we have not had a problem. Modules will be moved to the top of the queue as needed. Price: $27.50 Upgrade Cost: $0

Within that single mall, it can be used in multiple stores without additional license. This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.
Feature Details. The purpose of Rate This module is to allow customers (who have signed in) to provide their rating/review of products offered in the store.The module allows a customer one review on each productthey choose to rate/review. They can go back and change their rating and review as it is controlled by their login and password. The average customer rating is displayed graphically with whole or half images. This graphical display can be on the product screen, the category listscreen or both. The default images are hearts, but the mall owner can substitute any graphics he/she wants. Customers can also leave narrative comments about products they wish to review. All customers, not just those logged in, are able to view the ratings and reviews made by other customers. In the event that a malicious customer enters prank ratings, the admin interface allows removal of all ratings by specific customers. Since the module has an email alert feature (if turned onby the store owner), you will know what ratings are being left for your products. There is also a report generator to list all ratings on a specific product code or all ratings by a specific customer. You can also display and/or delete the ratings of a specific product from the individual product edit screen. Using a render token, place the Rate This button on the product page so that it better fits your desired look. You canlimit the number of reviews which appear on the product page with a "more"link to show all. You can sort the order of the reviews within the product edit screen so that customers see the reviews in the order you want them seen. You can also require admin approval before the rating/review is displayed to customers visiting your store. Admin reports can be displayed to screen, exported to flat file, and optionally email the flat file to the store. The admin rating reports which display the login have a hot link to the customer login so you can quickly view who the rater is. Configure through admin, the text and tokens in both the display and prompt for this module as they are customizable templates which can replace the default layouts. You can allow the customer to include their email, name, or location (automatically filled in from their customer account) along with the reviews, depending on the demographicyou choose to allow in the store. As example, a typical rating might be The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5.

In admin, you create one or more template emails. Eachtemplate can be different, i.e. what it displays, how the data is oriented on the screen/paper, and what product(s) triggers the autoresponder. Most responses are triggered by the product codes purchased. Some example uses:
However, Mail Manager has a somewhat open architecture sothat other events can also trigger an automated response. For example:
As you can see, the uses of this Mail Manager are quite diverse. Some of the variable features configured through admin for each template are:
I'd be surprised if you find that this capability exists anywhere in any mid-priced shopping cart system. Autoresponders that fill in the blanks are one thing, but this is a store owner, pre-planned autoresponse for a specific product. Within your store, you could have dozens of different responses (individual or grouped) or a wildcard response for all of the products. You can use itto make connections not directly related to sales, yetlinked to a specific sale.
As you can see, this list could be endless. Targetted, intelligent autoresponders are designed to increase your store'sbusiness and decrease the amount of time employees spend on sendingout product specific, emails. The pre-formed templates are easy to configure and do not require programming experience. For the more experienced, you also have the option of using tokens and mini-scripts in free form templates. An example free form template is included with the install documents. Price: $45.00 Upgrade Cost: $0

We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.Most agree, Google is the mother of all search engines onthe Internet. Their feature to create a listing of actual items for sale across the Internet, rather thanpages with hits on keywords, is a bold attempt to better target customers and buyers in a symbiotic relationship. This is a giant leap in eCommerce, providing comparison shopping using the Google search engine. If you are a MivaMerchant store owner you CANNOT afford to miss this opportunity, especially since inclusion in the FroogleTMindex is free. How much have youinvested in getting your store's search engine rankings? A big side benefit to getting listed in FroogleTM is that the Google company is spidering your site, thus it may increase the number of your pages listed in Google. Coincidentally, my site went from 1220 to 1350 pages in Google within a week after submitting the first data feed to FroogleTM. I had an additional 130 which had been previously overlooked. There is no direct indication that listing in Froogle will effect your listing in Google, only time will tell. A module designed for the specific purpose of creatinga data feed for FroogleTM (rather than a generic data export)can include features which make it the best solution for the task:
