3 Power Search v5 Emporium Plus / Miva Central

The 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.

Features:
- Implements field specific, keyword searching
- Uses store morph technology to build templates with version history
- Customer selects the fields to search and the sort order they want the results displayed
- Search the whole store or limit to one category
- Search by all (AND), any (OR), exact phrase, or begins with
- Display total found, number of pages, and links to each page when the results exceed one page
- Use the same product list layout as original search or alter for your needs
- Can limit search to a specific price range
- Use in conjunction with the Emporium Plus Tell A Friend module to send searches to a friend
- Product page "return to search" link takes customers back to the same search page
- View admin log of searched words/phrases for marketing and keyword identification
- Maintain compatibility with 3rd party modules which use the MIVA Corp custom product fields
- Create pre-defined select list searches on a single field
- License per domain/mall

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.

4 Extra Customer Fields netBlazon / Miva Central

The Extra Customer Fields module allows you to specify additional customer information fields within your store, and also provides template-based layout control over the customer account screen and the customer information within all checkout screens. The extra customer fields can be displayed on all account and checkout screens, including the following:

  • ACNT - Add / Edit Customer Account Screen,
  • OINF - Checkout: Customer Information Screen,
  • OSEL - Checkout: Shipping / Payment Selection Screen,
  • OPAY - Checkout: Payment Screen, and
  • INVC - Invoice Screen

The Extra Customer Fields module supports all standard Miva Merchant fields, and also allows a variety of input types for extra fields, including text field, text area, checkbox, radio button, single select list, multi-select list, country dropdown, and state dropdown - all configurable from within the module's easy to use administration interface.

Features

Global Settings

Global Settings allows you to optionally set indicators to distinguish fields as required, optional, or both. Indicators can be shown before or after the field prompt. CSS styles are also applied to field prompts and input elements to indicate fields as required, optional, and/or invalid (when data is missing or incorrectly formatted).

Standard Fields

Extra Customer Fields allows you to control even the standard customer fields. This administration section allows you to change the prompt for a field and to set optional field attributes, such as CSS selectors, size, and even JavaScript event handling code.

Prompts can be dynamically controlled using OpenTokens - the prompt fields fully support all OpenToken functionality.

Module administration screen in Miva Merchant administration utility, showing the Standard Fields subtab
 

Templates

The layout of the account screen and the customer portions of the checkout screens can be customized using templates and tokens. Each screen has its own template, and fields and their associated prompts are displayed via tokens. For example, %nbecf_fname_s% is replaced with the input box for the Ship-to First Name.

There is also a template for the admin screen. Administrators can view and edit the data entered by customers within the Miva Merchant administration utility. The admin template determines the layout of this administration screen.

Module administration screen in Miva Merchant administration utility, showing the Templates subtab
 

Extra Customer Fields

Extra fields can be defined to collect additional information from your customers, either during checkout, account creation, or both. Each extra field is assigned a name, a prompt, an interface type, and optionally a default value and attributes. The name is hidden from customers, but is used as the token to represent this field within the templates. The prompt is the text label shown to customers. Several interface types are available, including text field, text area, dropdown menu, checkbox, radio button, single select, multi select, and even states and countries dropdowns with data pulled from the corresponding store databases. If a field is given a default value, that default value will be present when an empty form is loaded. Attributes are used to specify CSS selectors, sizes, and JavaScript event handlers. Finally, each field can be designated as required or optional.

Dropdowns, radio buttons, and single and multi select fields also have options. These options are defined on a separate screen for each field, and can be reordered as needed.

5 NetPush Advanced Inventory NetPush / MvCool

The NetPush Advanced Inventory Module allows Miva Merchant store owners to track inventory within Miva Merchant all the way down to the attribute/option level. The module has numerous configuration settings that should allow the admin to display and track any simple or complex inventory configuration. Inventory levels are only adjusted at checkout time so there is no need to worry about old baskets causing inventory problems. The module comes with an import and export module that allows administrators to easily update inventory levels by using csv files.

We suggest using template modules like Viking Coder's Product Templates and Category Templates if you want better control of the look and feel of your pages with regards to inventory. This will allow you to use tokens for display. Otherwise, you will have to settle for built in hook point displays that are built into the module and are configurable through the administration area.

The Advanced Inventory Module will send email when stock goes below certain configurable low stock level and can disable products when stock goes below the out of stock level. Administrators can also customize every message shown to the user. Fine grain customizations are made easy because the module allows product level configuration settings the ability to override global inventory configuration settings. This allows Miva Merchant Administrators the ability to customize inventory configurations for every product, if he or she wishes.

Notes:

  • OpenUI Tokens
    This module can be used with OUI OpenTokens. To use the module with Viking Coders template modules, see the OpenToken instructions and examples in the documentation on the NetPush.com site.

  • Product Upsell
    This module does not show stock information on the product upsell screens at this time. Stock is still tracked in the basket and checkout, but no current stock level is shown on the upsell screens during checkout unless you are using alternatives like tokens in templates.

  • Basket Redirect and Error Message
    The user is automatically redirected to the basket screen if he or she adds items to the basket that makes the product go out of stock or if the product is already out of stock. The error message is shown above the basket screen using a hook point in the Open UI. The message is configurable in the admin area.

  • Checkout Screen Error
    If configuration is setup to do so, the module will block a user from checking out if their basket has an item that is out of stock. This message is shown automatically at the top of the screen. The message is configurable in the admin area.

  • Pipes ( | )
    Product codes, attribute codes, and option codes must not contain the pipe character. NetPush Advanced Inventory uses the pipe to delimit for lookups. Pipes in your codes will cause the module not to work correctly.

Requirements:

  • Open UI 4.723+
    This module requires that you have OpenUI installed in your store. The module uses hook points in the OpenUI. You must have OpenUI version 4.723 or higher if you plan to use the OpenToken functionality available in this module. Please see the OpenUIsite for information about latest versions and bug fixes.

  • Miva Empressa 3.96+
    This module requires that you have Miva Empressa 3.96 or higher. The module uses functionality that is only available in newer versions of the Empressa Engine. Miva regularly releases new versions of Miva Empressa and the Virtual Machine to add new functionality and fix bugs. If you are on an older version, consider contacting your hosting company. You can find the Miva Empressa version at the top left hand of your Store Administrator when you first login. It should show your Miva Merchant version and your Miva Empressa version.

  • Miva Merchant 2.x, 3.x, and 4.x
    This module should work with most versions of Miva Merchant. In order to use the deactivate product option, you must be on version 3.0+. All testing and development was done on versions 4.13+.

Global Configuration Screen

All inventory settings will use the global configuration settings found in the Miva Merchant Administration area under Stores > Your Store > System Extension Configuration > NetPush Advanced Inventory. One may override these settings for products (see product level settings below). Each product must also be manually turned on before tracking starts. See product settings below.

Configuration Settings

  • Use NetPush Inventory
    You must set this to "Yes" if you want the module to be turned on. If this is set to "No", the module will not do anything.
  • Amount considered out of stock
    Usually this would be 0, but it can be set to any number, including negative numbers. Once the stock level reaches this number, it will be considered out of stock.
  • Deactivate when product level is out of stock
    In Miva Merchant versions that support it, the module will turn the Active flag for a product to off, if the product reaches the out of stock level. This only works on the product level, not for the attribute/option level.
  • Allow purchase even after out of stock
    Turning this on will allow customers to purchase products even after they go below the out of stock level. This could be a backorder situation.
  • Automatically remove from basket
    When a user adds products to the basket, the products will be removed if it makes the inventory go below the out of stock level and the admin is not allowing purchases when products are out of stock. Please take note that this option could cause problems if other modules are installed that also act on the basket.
  • Send Low Inventory Notices
    Turn this on to receive email warnings when inventory goes below the low inventory level.
  • Amount considered low
    The level that is considered low. Use this setting to trigger emails that will warn you when inventory is hitting a low level.
  • Low Email To Address
    Set this to the email address of the person who should be receiving emails when stock is at a low level.
  • Low Email From Address
    Set this to the email address that should be set as the from address in low stock emails.
  • Low Email Subject
    The subject of the low stock email. This field has token replacement.*
  • Low Email Body
    This is the body of the low stock email. This field has token replacement.*
  • Automatically change stock levels
    Turn this on if you want the system to subtract stock when a user purchases. If this is set to "No", the system will not update stock levels.
  • Show out of stock messages
    Turn this on to show out of stock messages on the product page when stock goes below the out of stock level.
  • Show in stock messages
    Turn this on to show how much stock is left on the product page.

    Out of Stock Messages*

  • Product Level
    This message is shown to the user on the product page below the shipping weight.

    This helps the user to see which products have gone out of stock when looking at the basket. A red asterisks may be a good indicator for the user.
  • Out of Stock - Basket
    This message is shown to the user above the basket when a product has gone out of stock when adding, updating, or looking at the basket. Products can go out of stock at anytime, even after a user adds it to their basket. This is because stock levels only change after checkout.
  • Out of Stock - Checkout
    This message is similar to the out of stock basket message. It is shown on the payment screen during checkout. This should be considered one final inventory check before allowing the user to purchase.

* Token Replacement
This module has a few built in tokens for messages that allow you to give yourself and the user more detailed information. Some of the tokens below can only be used on certain screens, or in emails.

%%stock%% - Displays the current stock level. (1,2,3)

Product Configuration Screen

All inventory settings will use the global configuration settings found in the Miva Merchant Administration area under Stores > Your Store > System Extension Configuration > NetPush Advanced Inventory. To override these settings at the product level, go to the product in the administration area and click on "NetPush Advanced Inventory". You will see the settings below.

Configuration Settings

  • Use NP Inventory on this Product
    You must set this to "Yes" if you want to track inventory on the product. You must manually set this to "Yes" for every product that you want to track. If this is not set to "Yes", no inventory tracking will take place. By default, no product is tracked.
  • Override Global Settings
    If this is set to "Yes" the configurations settings will be taken from the individual product screen instead of from the Global configuration settings found under under system extension configuration. If set to "No", the module will use the global settings from above when doing inventory for the product. The default is to use the global settings.

Setting Product Inventory Levels

The administrator can set product inventory levels by going to the product page within the Miva Merchant admin area and clicking on NetPush Advanced Inventory. This is the same screen as the product level configuration. Product inventory levels are shown below the configuration area. To add new inventory, use the yellow add button. To edit inventory, click white add button next to the inventory entry.

The module checks inventory by looking at a unique combination of Product Code, Attribute Code, and Option Code. When entering stock levels, you enter the codes separated by a pipe. For example, shirt1|color|red, where shirt1 is the product code, color is the attribute code, and red is the option code. If you do not set an inventory level for an existing product attribute combination, no tracking is done. Setting a stock level of -9999 has the same effect.

Inventory at a product level
You may choose to only track inventory at a product level in combination with or not at an attribute level. To enter a stock level for a product, simply use prodcode||. This tells the system that you are tracking the product code, but not the attributes or options by leaving them blank. Using -9999 for a stock level will temporarily turn inventory tracking off.

Inventory at the attribute level (checkbox, select box, radio buttons)
Checkbox - prodcode|attrcode|(the last field should be left blank, as checkboxes have no options)
Select Box and Radio Buttons - prodcode|attrcode|optcodeAll 3 are required and must be unique, even if you are using attribute templates. If you are using normal templates in combination with attribute templates, make sure you do not give them duplicate code names.


Using Advanced Inventory with Template Modules and OpenTokens

The Advanced Inventory Module can be used with 3rd party template modules like the ones from Viking Coders by using Open UI tokens on product pages to display current inventory levels. Please note that token support has not been completely tested as of yet.

%module|npinventory|stock_level%
Returns the stock level for the product, attribute, option combination. To ensure that this works correctly, you should set g.NPI_Product_Code, g.NPI_Attribute_Code, and g.NPI_Option_Code to the current product code, attribute code, and option code. On a checkbox, make sure to set g.NPI_Option_Code = ''. On a product level, make sure to set the attribute and option variables to ''. After these globals are set, call the token. If the return value is -9999, the item is not being tracked.

%module|npinventory|stock_available%
Same as above but shows the amount available.

%module|npinventory|oos_level%
Same as above but shows the out of stock level.

%module|npinventory|stock_list%
This token will set a global variable that contains an array of structures. You must set g.NPI_Product_Code equal to the current product code before calling the token.

Details

The "Hide Prices Pending Customer Approval" module contains a wealth of functionality and customizable options. It's tremendously useful for wholesalers and other store owners that want to limit access to a known, and approved, customer base.

Product Prices Hidden
Product prices can be hidden until a customer's account has been approved by the store's owner. Optionally, prices can be hidden until a customer creates or logs-in to an account (without requiring approval of the account).

Buttons Too
The product prices - and the "Add To Cart" and the "Buy One Now" buttons - can be hidden on the Product List, Categories, Search Results, and Product Display screens. An optional, fully-customizable message can be displayed in place of the hidden prices.

Require Customer Login
Customers can be required to login (or create a new account) before being granted access to the entire store or to the product-related pages (Product Listing, Categories, Search, Product Display & Basket screens).

For instance - The module can be configured to "Hide Prices Pending Approval of Customer Account" and to "Require Login to View Products".

With this configuration:

  • Customers could access the storefront but would be prevented from accessing the Product Listing, Categories, Search, Product Display & Basket screens. They could of course also access the Login & Create New Accounts screens.
  • Once the customer logged in or created a new account, they would then be able to view the Product Listing, Categories, Search & Product Display screens, but the prices would be hidden.
  • Once the account was approved by the store's administrator, the customer would be able to login and view product prices.

Multiple Levels of Price Display & Access Restriction

Display of Prices:

  • Hide Prices Pending Approval of Customer Account
  • Hide Price Unless Customer Has Account
  • Show Prices - (Disables Module)

Access to Store:

  • No Login Required to Access Store
  • Login Required at Storefront
  • Login Required to View Products

Customer Messages
An optional & customizable "Customer Account Pending Approval" message can be displayed just below the Miva Merchant header. An optional & customizable message can also be displayed on the Customer Account & Customer Information screens. This can be used to inform the customer of the store's policy for accessing the product prices.

For example:
"Approval of customer account is required. Please complete the customer account form. You will be notified by email when your account is approved."

Two Modules In One
It's actually two modules - a OpenUI system module and an administrative utility Module. The system module customizes the store's look and feel and limits access to prices. The administrative utility module provides the store owner with the ability of reviewing and approving customer accounts.

It's also a feature-rich, admin-friendly customer management utility.

Choose the way you approve customer accounts - accounts can now be approved using either the standard Customer admin or the administrative utility module.

Quick Approval of Customer Accounts
The Approve Customers administrative utility module also has a "quick approval" feature. A store's administrator can quickly search for a new customer by login, email address, or other keyword - then approve the customer with one click.

Admin-Friendly navigation - Sort Customers by newest, by id, or by login. Search by login, name or other keyword. Easily scroll through customer records, choose how many are displayed per page, go to first or last record, approve, edit or delete records.

Integrated Price & Availability Groups Support
The store administrator can also assign customers to a price and/or availability group at the same time that accounts are being approved.

Template-based Merchant Notification of New Accounts
An optional email notification can be sent to a specified address whenever a new account is created by a customer. The subject, header & message body are fully customizable. The message template has tokens for all customer fields - login, password, shipping info & billing info.

Template-based Customer Notification of Approved Accounts
An optional email notification can be sent to the customer whenever their account is approved. The subject, header & message body are fully customizable. The message template has tokens for all customer fields - login, password, shipping info & billing info.

Display Attribute-Option Prices
Attribute & option prices on the product display screen.

  • Fully customizable attribute-option prompt template gives you complete control over their display
  • Works with all types of attributes, drop-down menus, radio button, checkboxes, text fields & memo fields
  • Modifies both the Product Display & Missing Attributes screens
  • Completely compatible with Miva Merchant price groups

7 Additional Product Fields Manager Viking Coders / Miva Central

Additional Product Fields Manager is an easy to use package for creating an unlimited number of new product fields. It requires no core database modifications or code changes, all additional fields are defined through an admin console. Simply define a code and prompt for each new field, and choose which screens to display it on (product, category, product list, and/or search). These options may be edited later while preserving any new field data you have added. Additionally, you can arbitrarily sort new fields at any time.

Once one or more new fields have been defined, you can start adding product data for the new fields. Product data may be added/updated in the Edit Products Screen, or in bulk using the included Import Module. Field data may contain up to 254 characters and may also include HTML/JavaScript/etc. If you haven't added any data for a new field for a product, that field simply isn't displayed for the product. In this way, different products may contain different new fields. An export module is also included.

8 Flexible Product Description Weiland / Miva Central

Add additional field data within the product narrative description. This data will appear on the screen as if it is in a separate field, but is really just part of the narrative memo field. This Merchant version 2.22 or 3.x module handles the parsing so that the customer only sees the data in the appropriate places.

No modification to the products database structure is required. No additional databases are required to support this additional data. The additional data is added into product records just as any other product data, through admin or via flat file import. This provides easier code maintainability and faster data access. Since the data is stored within the product narrative description field, that data is immediately available to the standard Merchant search function with no code modification. This is the simplest way to display additional data in the product and category screens as if it is in separate fields instead of just narrative data. By doing this, the data stands out as name - value pairs, eg Author: Hemmingway.

An added benefit is that you can have within your store products with different types of additional field data. Some products might need additional fields such as author, publisher, and date while other products might need fields such as composer, vocalist, and country of origin. This software product is an example of such a situation. Most of the products in my store are movie posters and contain additional fields related to them. That field data is stored in separate fields and maintained via prodmore (module for importing additional field data into separate fields). While this product record contains those same additional fields (naturally they are empty), I have added four fields via Flexible Product Description, which only appear in this product record. You can see them as Merchant Version, User Interface, CIM Tool Kit, Combo and New Image in the CTGY and PROD screens. In a Merchant 3.0 store, they can also appear in expanded product display screens for SRCH and PLST. I've also added the New Image field to some of the new product records to demonstrate the flexibility this feature provides. You can see the search box on the store front which lists new products by month.

New in the compiled version is compatibility interface with the OpenUI Tokens and Viking Coders product template module. Place the additional field data on the product page so that they better fit your desired look. Pseudo-fields, brief and keyword, can be used by Static Catalog Generator to improve search engine ranking for both the static html and dynamic Miva Merchant pages. See the install notes for details.

9 Search Engine Tweak Pro Pixel Composer / Miva Central

You've got your store spidered by the search engines, you're showing up in the search engine results, but you just can't seem to improve your rankings...Search Engine Tweak Pro (SETPro) is here to help!

Search engines take into account many factors when ranking web results, and one of the most important is proper page content optimization. Miva Merchant's dynamic page creation is not designed to be search engine friendly with how it creates and displays the page content. This is where SETPro comes in to play with a number of optimizations and enhancements for product and category screens. These optimizations are primarily done with the Google search engine in mind, but are also relevant to most other popular search engines.

PRODUCT SCREENS:

  • Product Name Tags:

    Allows you to set the product names on the product screens to a preferred heading tag, bold, or none (

    ,

    ,

    ,

    , ).

The keywords to focus on for an individual product page are typically contained within the product name. Making the product name a larger font size using the heading tags, compared to most of the other page content, adds extra weight to those keywords when rankings are determined.

  • Remove Store Name In Product Title Bar:

    Optionally strips out the store name in the product screen title bars.

Page titles are extremely important to search engines. Miva Merchant adds the store name in the browser window's title bar along with the product name. This is a good thing, but it may also make it undesireable by diluting the product name keywords with an unnecessary store name, thus giving less weight to your keyword focus.

  • Product Description at Top of HTML Body:

    Optionally placed at the very top of the page, just after the tag in the page code, this displays the product name followed by the first 200 characters of the product description. Any HTML used in the description is stripped out before being displayed at the page top.

Stock Miva Merchant nests a considerable amount of hidden tables within one another. It makes for an adequate display but search engines don't see page content as the viewer does. That creates a large amount of page code that pushes the product descriptions far down the page, even possibly tripping up some older search engines. It's best to have your real keyword content as far up the page code as possible, creating more keyword weight and improving relevancy for the product pages. It's recommended to use either this option or the commented out feature described below, but not both.

  • Commented Out Product Description at Top of HTML Body:

    Optionally placed at the very top of the page, just after the tag in the page code. This option adds the product name followed by the first 200 characters of the product description text, commented out (hidden from view). Any HTML used in the description is stripped out before it's added to the top of the page code.

This is the same as the product description display above, except that the description and title are commented out, essentially invisible, at the top of the page. Most search engines will ignore comment tags but some may take them into account. This is an elegant alternative to actually displaying the product name with description at the top of the page, leaving the page as it's meant to be displayed. It's recommended to use either this option or the displayed product description feature described above, but not both.

CATEGORY SCREENS:

  • Category Name Tags:

    Allows you to set the category names on the category screen, to a preferred heading tag, bold, or none (

    ,

    ,

    ,

    , ).

The keywords to focus on for an individual category page are typically contained within the category name. Making the category name a larger font size using the heading tags, compared to most of the other page content, adds extra weight to those keywords when rankings are determined.

  • Remove Store Name In Category Title Bar:

    Optionally strips out the store name in the category screen title bars.

Page titles are extremely important to search engines. Miva Merchant adds the store name in the browser window's title bar along with the category name. This is a good thing, but it may also make it undesireable by diluting the category name keywords with an unnecessary store name, thus giving less weight to your keyword focus.

  • Product Links in Line-Item Listings:

    Optionally replaces the product name with a linked product name, when a line-tem listing is used. This is mainly for category screens, but also applies to related products, search results, and product list screens.

Search Engines add additional keyword weight to pages using those keywords contained in incoming anchor text (links) from other pages.

  • Product Short Description in Line-Item Listings:

    Optionally adds a short product description under the product name when a line-item listing is used. Mostly used for category screens, but also applies to related products, search results, and product list screens when line-item formatting is used. Choices are:

    1. None
    2. Product Description (First 200 characters with stripped out HTML code)
    3. Product Short Description (Displays from the OpenUI Short Description Field)
Particularly helpful with non-descriptive category screens or related product areas, by adding more useful content for search engines to index. Also useful for adding varied keyphrases by use of the product's Short Description field.

10 Product Xtra - Additional Fields modStop /

ProdXtra lets you create, display and let customers search on new fields for your products. You will have complete control over field names and where these fields are displayed.

With ProdXtra you can give additional fields a simple name for importing and exporting, and a label (such as Year, Manufacturer, or Condition). These labels won't be displayed on products that contain no data for the fields, so you can have different fields for different products.

This module lets you choose where these fields will be displayed - search page, product list, category page and product page. You can also choose the type of field that will be imported (number, text, memo, etc.), and decide if the fields are searchable.

ProdXtra gives you complete control over all your fields in the admin.mv of your store. Included are import and export modules which allow you to import additional fields altogether, and export any fields already added via the products area in your store.

11 Static Catalog Generator Weiland / Emporium Plus

The 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.

13 etargetmailer modStop /

The ultimate in targetted e-mailing, the eTargetMailer allows you to easily reach your customers for special offers, targetted newsletters, etc. by utilizing the Order history and Customers database from your online store.

The full administration interface for this Merchant Utility module makes setup and configuration simple. You can create and save any number of targetted e-mail templates, which contain specific targetting information as well as e-mail content. eTargetMailer offers many powerful targetting features, allowing you to direct your e-mails to customers who fit any number of profiles:

All targetting is based on either the entire Order history for your store, or a specific date range for orders. Customers who meet the profile specified in the targetting settings will receive an e-mail defined in the template, with options for specifying the Subject, From e-mail address, etc. All messages are comprised of a 'Header' content area and 'Footer' content area, as well as optional 'Product Includes' in the body area based on which qualifying products a customer has purchased.

Message content in eTargetMailer? also includes powerful 'Macro' features allowing you to easily personalize your e-mails. All customer information, such as First and Last Names, e-mail addresses, etc. (for both Bill-To and Ship-To fields) can be included in message content, as well as special macros for the Number of Orders during the specified date range, the combined Order Total, and the highest Single-Order Total. The optional 'Product Includes' sections also allow extra macros representing the Product Code, Product Name, and the Quantity ordered during the specified date range.

Once a template is defined and saved, a quick glance shows you when the last time a mailing was processed for that template, as well as the number of messages sent during the last mailing and the total sent overall. One click will start processing a template, automatically e-mailing all customers that match your target profile. No need to worry about timeouts either, as the eTargetMailer can easily scale to send e-mails to a theoretically unlimited number of customers.

This very powerful and versatile utility can leverage your existing customer database and help encourage repeat business. A few examples of the vast options and many uses include:

All features are easily configured through the Admin interface.

17 Hide Prices Pending Customer Approval LATU /

Miva Merchant 4.14 version now available.

New Features:

The Merchant 4.14 version includes:

Improved navigation in the "Approve Customers" administrative utility module - including a quick link to the most recent customer record.

Choose the way you approve customer accounts - accounts can now be approved using either the standard Customer admin or the "Approve Customers" administrative utility module.

New options for the Merchant Notification and Customer Notification email messages û the inclusion of the Customer billing and shipping fields is now optional.

Details:

The "Hide Prices Pending Customer Approval" module contains a wealth of functionality and customizable options. It's tremendously useful for wholesalers and other store owners that want to limit access to a known, and approved, customer base.

Product Prices Hidden
Product prices can be hidden until a customer's account has been approved by the store's owner. Optionally, prices can be hidden until a customer creates or logs-in to an account (without requiring approval of the account).

Buttons Too
The product prices û and the "Add To Cart" and the "Buy One Now" buttons û can be hidden on the Product List, Categories, Search Results, and Product Display screens. An optional, fully-customizable message can be displayed in place of the hidden prices.

Two Modules In One
The module is actually two modules û a OpenUI system module and an administrative utility Module. The system module customizes the store's look and feel and limits access to prices. The administrative utility module provides the store owner with the ability of reviewing and approving customer accounts. It's also a fully-functional and user friendly customer management utility.

Quick Approval of Customer Accounts
The administrative utility module also has a "quick approval" feature. A store's administrator can quickly search for a new customer by login, email address, or other keyword û then approve the customer with one click.

Merchant Notification of New Accounts
An optional email notification can be sent to a specified address whenever a new account is created by a customer. The subject and header of the email message are customizable.

Customer Notification of Approved Accounts
An optional email notification can be sent to the customer whenever their account is approved. The subject and header of the email message are customizable.

Multiple Levels of Access Restriction
The store's owner can select from three different modes.

Customer Messages
An optional & customizable Customer Account Pending Approval" message can be displayed just below the Miva Merchant header. An optional & customizable message can also be displayed on the Customer Account & Customer Information screens. This can be used to inform the customer of the store's policy for accessing the product prices.

For example:
"Approval of customer account is required. Please complete the customer account form. You will be notified by email when your account is approved."

Many More Customizable Options

19 Coupon Redemption v5 Emporium Plus / Miva Central

Manage coupon addition and redemption functions within a Miva Merchant 5.x storefront with this plugin module. License is for ONE mall. 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.

Features:- Configurable prompt

- Configurable coupon rejection messages

- Searchable coupon database with pagination

- Combination of free shipping and order discount (% or fixed) coupon
- Easy deletion of expired coupons
- Coupon report identifies coupon usage

Feature Details. You can add coupons through the standard Miva Merchant admin interface and include usage criteria.
  • An unlimited number of coupons can be assigned to the store and eachidentified with a coupon code. Once you have added the module to the store, you can add coupons in the Order Fulfillment section of the admininterface. When you select the Add icon, you will have several input fields to fill in. You must enter a unique code for your coupon. Thisis the code that you will give to customers so they can shop and redeemthe coupon. It can be any combination of letters and/or numbers.
  • You canembed a token in your welcome email or notification emails generated with our Mail Manager (Emporium Plus - Weiland) module. A unique coupon code will be created and is based on the coupon template you designate. You can have an unlimited number of templates and an unlimited number of coupons copied from them. If you are not using our Mail Manager, you can still activate the generator by placing the token in the invoice header. If you are using our Tell A Friend (Emporium Plus - Weiland) module, you can embed the unique coupon code in the emails that customers send when referring their friends to your store. The coupon generation is also useful when it is embedded into the follow on contact emails that our Follow On Contact (Emporium Plus - Weiland) module sends out.
  • If you have a lot of coupons you want to load into the system quickly,there is a coupon import from flat file module
  • An optional expiration date can be included which will prevent its useif the date has passed. Enter it in the year, month, day format, eg. 20000724 would be July 24, 2000. If you leave this field blank the coupon will never expire. However, you can still delete it manually through the admin interface.
  • A fixed value OR percentage discount off the order total is assigned to each coupon. The default is fixed value/price, e.g. $5.00 off the order total. If you put the % sign in the next input field AFTER the value field, it will calculate the coupon value based on the assigned percent of the order total. The %, if used, is entered in the separate field to the right for that purpose. If left blank, the calculation will be based on the fixed value of the coupon. See the note below about restricting discount calculations to specific products instead of the order total. A maximum redemptionvalue can be assigned to each coupon.
  • Free shipping coupon option. If you enter the letter S in the field to the right of the value field, the coupon will be used to allow free shipping for the entire order. Other criteria for the coupon must be met, e.g. minimum order amount, eligible products, etc.
  • Optionally, a coupon can be allowed only when an order total reaches a specific amount. For example, you can give a 10% discount when the order total reaches $200 as an incentive or promo. In all cases where a raw value is used, you must make this value equal to or greater than the value of the coupon. If you usethe percent calculation, this value can be any value, including zero.
  • Based on your state's tax requirements, the coupon can be designated toreduce the sales tax or not reduce it. The coupon's tax effect is onthe order total, not on individual products. For example, in some states, a store coupon reduces the cumulative value of products purchased before the sales tax is applied, hence you would want it to reduce tax. The exception to doingthis is if your products are likely to be non-taxable, making a coupon reduce tax could result in a negative tax calculation. Another type coupon might be the manufacturer coupon. In some states, manufacturer coupons do not decrease the tax liability. You should determine your state's tax requirements before adding coupons to your store.
  • Coupons can either be used:
    • multiple times - The coupon can be used at every visit by any customer who shops at your store. This is usually used as a promo to customers,user lists, clubs, etc. They often have a short expiration date to limittheir use. A typical usage might be a special holiday sale, eg 10% offeverything in the store if used by a specified date. This would eliminatethe need for special price groups if the intent is that everybody who hasthe coupon code can use it. In the compiled version you can limit the number of times a multiple coupon is redeemed.
    • only one time for each customer - The coupon can only be used for one visit per customer. When the same customer shops at your store a secondtime, if he/she uses the same coupon code, it will be rejected. This isprobably the most common coupon and is usually used in print ads or as a promo, eg. "$5.00 off on your next visit".
    • only one time for a unique coupon code - The coupon can only be used once. Once any customer has used this code, it becomes unavailable for any other purchase. This is often used as a customer relations tool, e.g. "sorry for the inconvenience, please accept this coupon.....".
  • Global or product related. You can restrict usage of a coupon in your store so that it can be used only if a specific product is ordered. You can list several product codes,any of which in the basket would make the coupon valid if the other requirements are met. Leaving the product code blank means that customers do not have to order a specific product as long as they meet the other requirements the store owner has specified. If you check the box to the left of the product code list, and are using the percentage discount, only those products in the code list will be used in the calculation using the qualifying products subtotal. If you do not check the box, the percentage discount will be applied against the order total. Youcan use a wildcard for the product list, e.g. 1AA* would make all productsbeginning with 1AA eligible for the coupon discount.
  • Use instant coupons on the individual product pages and for specific products. These coupons are redeemed at the product page and instantly appear in the basket as a line item discount related to a specific product. Unlike the global checkout coupons, customers can redeem multiple instant coupons in a single order. From a marketing standpoint this gives the merchant the opportunity to offer a promo code atthe product level which gives an impending event (expiration of the promo)to encourage sales while not lowering the value of the product with an overtprice discount.
  • You can restrict the coupon usage down to the attribute level. For example, you can limit the coupon to product codes beginning with 1AA and the attribute "Version" with the specific option value of "4.5". The format for the input would be 1AA*~Version~4.5|
  • If you precede the product list with a - (minus) character,the coupon will be excluded from use with those products.
  • You can limit the coupon to be used only if the customer is in a specific zone. You can use ONE of six possible zone limitations for each coupon (ship to: country, state or zip; bill to: country, state or zip).
  • Appropriate error messages are displayed when coupons don't meet theusage criteria established by the store owner. When the shopper entersa coupon code that is not valid based on the criteria you establish, he/she will see an error message just below the coupon codeinput when the page is re-displayed.
  • In admin, the coupons can be easily displayed and edited. The couponsare displayed in a table format with configurable number of coupons per page displayed. The entire coupon database is searchable by coupon code or beginning portion of the coupon code.
  • Expired coupons can be removed from the database (to cut down on disk usage) one at a time or in mass. In admin, you can either put a checkin the remove column and select update or select purge expired coupons, then select update.
  • A historical database, which can be imported and analyzed in database orspreadsheet software, is maintained on all coupons used. The couponuz.dbfcan be FTPd to your PC for further analysis in MS Access, MS Excel, or other data management software. This could be useful in determining which coupons bring you the most activity. The number of uses for each coupon is also displayed in the admin table.
  • The coupon usage report module can provide historical data within your admin. You can summarize or list each coupon used for a specific time period. You can also restrict the output to a specific coupon code or a string of characters in a coupon code. This latter is useful when you have assigneda series of coupons to an affiliate or advertising campaign. You can determine how much business was brought in with the coupons from various sources.

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.

20 Contact Manager v5 Emporium Plus / Miva Central

Sales, support and other inquiries between you and your customers are seemlessly integrated into your MIVA Merchant store. This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.

Features:
<- Easily integrate customer contact and inquiries
- Collect typical name, email, subject and inquiry
- Collect unlimited extra required and/or non-required fields
- Hide your store's email addresses from spammer email address harvesters
- Change the email address you want inquiries to go to through the admin panel
- Launch the Contact Manager from Merchant or from a static page
- Use a form or link to launch the Contact Manager
- Assign the contact record to a specific technician or department with ease
- Customer can select the target to send the inquiry to with a select list option
- Contact is logged and is not effected when email servers are down
- User interface is easily customized, even by html novices, from the module's admin configuration screen
- Use store morph technologoy to fully customize the form
- Department codes, descriptions and email addresses are configured through admin
- Admin section allows you to search one or more criteria to find messages
- Edit the status and/or respond to the sender
- Can send autoresponse email to customer so they know you received their inquiry
- Includes a contact tracking number in the email subject

Feature Details.
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.
