Use caution when considering any modules from modStop. Their support has been reported by umpteen Miva Merchant users as suspect and worse. Some of their modules are simple and shouldn't require support. Please contact us with any questions concerning them or their modules.
Find a string of text in the product descriptions and replace it with a different string of text. This admin module quickly steps through each record in your store's database and makes the find and replacement. The user can choose either case sensitive or case insensitive.
A list of product records containing the find text will be displayed with a checkbox next to each along with a checkbox for ALL. The user can select one, several or all records for the find and replace.

Collect information from you customer before they complete the order.
This addendum module provides two stock questions to help find out where they heard about you. A drop down question to gather other information, with 6 reponses. Most people would use it to gather how the customer found you, but the question, and responses are configurable. 6 choices in the drop down selection allow for most possibilities. Another question is also available, to gather a text imput such as other information - or enter a new Question for the customer to give a text answer. Gathered information is sent along to the Merchant e-mail.
Module is similar toi the Customer Agree, but the responses are not required to continue.
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. At this time we have not had a problem. Modules will be moved to the top of the queue as needed.

Have you ever wondered why you're not getting massive hits on your Miva Merchant Store when you have the best prices on the Internet? Ever searched the internet through a search engine only to find that some ancient, inefficient and cumbersome old site is getting all the hits that you deserve?
Well now its time to get serious, its time to get even... its time to bring in the Search Engine KILLER.
THE PROBLEM merchant.mv?thisandthat
The problem with Miva Merchant and other database driven stores is that the technology used to access and display the product information is NOT search engine friendly.. In fact, most search engines will ignore EVERY PAGE of your eStore!
Someone somewhere made the decision that URLs with arguments, information passed long with the URL eg. file.mv?argument1&argument2 etc, indicates that the page isn't worth indexing, but these arguments are essential to any database driven store. Some search engines even refuse to index pages that are .mv! (Northern Light for one).
As a result, your state of the art Miva Merchant Store is missing out on major search engine exposure, and your competitors lousy mall which they hand create using FrontPage97 is getting all the hits.. JUST BECAUSE EVERY PAGE IS A STATIC HTML PAGE.
In an ideal world, what you need is the sophistication of your Miva Merchant Mall and the search engine pulling power of a good old HTML site too.
THE SOLUTION Now YOU can live in that ideal world!
Search Engine Killer (or SEK for short) is perhaps the most significant software release for Merchant stores EVER!
While it adds NOTHING to the functionality of Merchant, it wages war on search engines - those sites who may well decide how much money you make next month.
It is a sophisticated complementary product which runs seperately from Merchant, but knows everything about your store!
The mirror site is:
100% HTML
Designed with the Search Engine in mind using the Title tag, Meta Tags, text placement, IMG ALT attributes and more to get you the best possible search engine ranking.
automatically generates HTML pages from the information stored within Merchant:
- an index.html page for submition to search engines with a link to every other generated page - an html page for each category and subcategory, eg. your_category_code.html which lists every product and links to.. - an html page for each product
product pictures througout! The SEK Mirror references the URL of the product images already online in your real merchant store!
multiple links on every html page to both the SEK Mirror pages (so that the search engines find and index every single page) and directly to your Merchant Mall..
dynamic referencing technology is used so that the links back to your Miva Merchant Mall are context sensitive. eg. SEK Mirror product pages click straight through to the appropriate BUY ONE page in your real Merchant Store!
remembers your previous preferences to allow ultra-fast regeneration after significant changes to your mall
SAME NAMING CONVENTIONS AS SEK1
the html files generated are named using the Merchant Category and Product codes you have specified in Merchnat so that even after a new mirror is generated the Search Engines find previously indexed files.
Even if search engines DID spider every page of your Merchant Store, there is NO WAY that it would get the same high rankings. Your SEK Mirrors site is built from the ground up with search engines in mind by a developer with many years of experience in site promotion.
and here is the trick..
EVERY PAGE IS DESIGNED TO GIVE THE IMPRESSION THAT IT IS YOUR STORE WHEN IT IS REALLY JUST A TEASER PAGE
What will it mean to your business to be able to submit a single html page to search engines and have their spider catalog every category and product you have?
How would you like to be able to strengthen your position by submitting an html page for each category that can also be submitted seperately?
Sales, support and other inquiries between you and your customers are seemlessly integrated into your Miva Merchant store.

Feature Details.
This module keeps your store'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. You can launch the contact manager form from a button in the category column or from a static page. You can also use a http link format for launching the support manager form from static pages or within Merchant. The contact manager allows you to assign the contact record to a specific technician or department with ease.
The contact manager form characteristics are controlled from a merchant 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.
The customer can select the target/department to send the inquiry to with a select list option. This expedites the delivery to the specific techician/department's email address. As with the uncompiled version, the email addresses are hidden from email harvesting spammers. Department codes, descriptions and email addresses are configured through admin.
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.
In the Main admin screen of Merchant 4.x, under Store Notifications, the module provides you with a quick summary of how many messages are Pending. Upon clicking the link for Contact Manager, a popup window displays the subject and message ID of all pending contact messages.
This module provides a free solution to a bug present in Miva Merchant 4.16.
Bug Description/Symptoms:
When a shopper places an order with a total of $0.00 (whether due to purchasing free products, or a third-party Coupon or Gift Certificate module or similar, including but not limited to CouponTrk / GiftCertTrk and other modules we offer), they will receive an error on the invoice screen similar to "Runtime error in modules/ui/mmui.mvc @ [00000032:00004a04]: Line 2998: MvDO: Unable to find function 'PaymentModule_Invoice_Icon'". Also, the store admin will be unable to pull up order details, modify or delete the order through the admin interface, getting "Runtime error in 4.16/admin.mvc @ [00000077:00000c54]: admin.mv: Line 16813: MvDO: Unable to find function 'PaymentModule_Order_Tabs'".
Anyone running Merchant 4.16 who may have $0.00 order totals (particularly users of any third-party Gift Certificate/Coupon modules) is urged to download and install this bugfix. The module will fix all future orders, and has an admin option to go back and fix past orders (to allow the order to come up properly in the admin interface).
Most agree, Yahoo! is the king of commercial and non-commercial directories on the Internet. Their new venture to create a listing of actual items for sale across the Internet, rather than pages 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 Yahoo! Product Search index. If you are a Miva Merchant store owner you CANNOT afford to miss this
opportunity, especially since inclusion in the beta test index is currently free. How much have you invested in getting your store's search engine rankings? If you find you are getting traffic and earning revenue from this venture, you may find it beneficial to stay on after
the beta period has ended. This gives you an opportunity to "test the waters".
Include an affiliate code in the URLs so that you can better track where actual sales are coming from
If your store is a single store in the domain, you
can remove the Store_Code from the URL to aid in search engine spidering
If you are using our Flexible Product Description (recommended) or our Edit More (only for the very experienced) modules, the additional field data can be added to the description for the general products data feed.
Y Feed plugin module creates the datafeed flat file directly from your admin
As this is a new endeavor for Yahoo! Inc., I expect them to change
their format and add new capabilities over time. Licensees of the 4.x version of this module will have free upgrades of the module through the 4.x version.
Limitations: 1) Currently the module can only be used for the general products export for Merchant 4.x uncompiled. With the compiled version (Merchant 4.14 and newer) of the module, you can export book, music, and video type products if you are using one of the additional field methods above.
2) We will be upgrading the Y Feed module for compiled Merchant (4.14 and newer) to include the following product categories in the future: video games, computers, and electronics.
Payflow Link allows you to keep your existing internet-enabled merchant account and automatically capture payments for your Miva Merchant store. It's a fast and easy way to collect secure payments.
The Payflow Link system is a cost-effective means of handling order processing which uses VeriSign's secure system.
Payflow Link is the ideal choice if you process low-to-moderate levels of orders, and prefer a solution that is especially easy to implement and maintain. You will find that you can payment-enable your Web sites with little or no assistance from a third party (yet we'll install and configure the gateway at no additional cost).
How It Works: Users shop as usual, but upon checkout, they are taken to VeriSign's secure system for payment. Once the order is complete, they are returned to your store.
How You Save: Because it's independent from your merchant account, it's a less expensive option. There is only a monthly fee for the gateway for up to 1,000 transactions per month. There are no per-order charges. (Your merchant account fees still apply).
Why It's Better: Since you have a separate merchant account (if you don't, we'll find one for you), you are not "married" to any gateway system nor any merchant account.
Why It Makes More Sense: The Payflow Payment system allows you to handle all administrative duties right online, in a secure environment. You can run reports, capture cards, issue voids and credits, even search for past transactions.
The Benefits of DesignExtend.com: Here, you'll save $29 off the setup fee and $3 per month. Right now you can opt to pay just $150 setup (reg. $179) and $16.95 (reg. $19.95) for the first month, then be billed $16.95 a month thereafter). Or, you can pay one year in advance and save even more. We'll also help support the system. While VeriSign does offer full and complete support, don't be afraid to call on us with questions.
Information is POWER! The bigger the store, the harder it is to find things - and when people can't find something, what do they do? They SEARCH
With Search Logger you can see what people are looking for. You can use this information to: Change your product descriptions to include the words that customers use when looking for things and know what people are looking for. If you don't sell it then maybe you should!
Search Logger keeps track of all searchs made at your store through the standard Merchant Search Screen and gives you access to the results including: Date time, Search String, Result ( success or failure ), and Customers IP address ( so you can group searches by person )
You can view and reset this log through your Merchant Admin screen.
This module provides your store with a more configurable and robust search page. It permits you to offer your customer the option to search categories and attributes and to limit their search to particular fields in the Products database. Searches can be made case sensitive, restricted to searching only the entire phrase, and made to use either AND or OR. In addition, the module provides for the separate configuration of keywords for your products and those keywords can be included in the search. The module supports the Viking Coder's Additional Product Fields Manager module and you can provide your customers with the ability to search the fields that you have configured for your products. All of the configurable options, including the particular fields to search on, can selectively be made default options and hidden from your customers. In this way you can restrict the search to only those fields you want your customers to search in.
The module comes with two distinct admin interfaces. One provides for the simple configuration of a default layout for the search page and display of results. For those familiar with HTML and looking for a specific layout, there is a template based configuration option which provides for complete token and template based control over the layout of the search page and results listing. Support is also provided for Third Party modules in the same manner as my Category Page Templates and Product Page Templates modules.
A sampling of the module's features:
Can be configured to replace the standard Merchant Search link and will use the same search button. So you can have the standard search link instead point to the Search Manager search page
The search page can be linked to from a static link with a link of the form: áááhttp://yoursite.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=SRCHM&Store_Code=storecode
Customers can search the categories for their search terms and the results are displayed above the product results (in the standard display format; they can go anywhere you want with the template formatting).
Customers can restrict the search to find only the entire phrase they entered by surrounding the search terms in double quotes. Eg. "Clown nose" will find only those products which contain the exact phrase "Clown nose"
Keywords can be saved for each product and category and those can be used to search in. To search the keywords for the products is an option for the products. The keywords are searched automatically for the categories. In both cases a tab is added to the individual category and product screens so that the keywords can be added.
You can redirect customers who add products from the results listing either back to the search page or to the basket.
All of the buttons (eg. "search", "add to basket", "previous", etc.) are configurable w/ images and alternate text.
When using the Template formatting option, you can use tokens to add drop down select lists with terms your customers might want to search for. They can then search for those with a simple selection from the list.
When using the Template formatting option, you can provide the customer with the option to sort the displayed results ascending or descending by product name, product code, or product id.
When using the Template formatting option, you can use multiple search fields to prompt your customer to search for multiple terms. For example, you could provide a field for "title" and a field for "author" to prompt our customer to narrow their search
The ultimate Miva Merchant autoresponder module - send specialized emails at the completion of the order. These emails are in addition to or in place of the standard emails which are sent at order completion, e.g. merchant notification, customer confirmation and even vendor specific notification.
Features: (some features are only in the compiled version)
- Autoresponder - specialized emails at the completion of the order
- Merchant notification and customer confirmation
- Vendor and product specific templates
- Include coupons or promo codes when specific products ordered
- Easy to use checkbox configuration of vertical or horizontal layout emails
- Highly configurable free form template layout emails with embedded tokens
- HTML or text email formatting
- Archive flat file is created for each template, easily track sales activity
- Mail Manager Report module can display the flat file contents by time period or product
- Ship to, bill to and other email addresses for each template
- Send emails to your company's internal departments, e.g. shipping
- Emails to web enabled cell phones
- Open architecture so that other events can also trigger an automated response
- Send a welcome email before the order completes and include a promo code
- Include 3rd party data with tokens, e.g. Addendum responses
- Display shipping and payment invoice messages
- Create packing slip and label emails
- Ship to country address formatted according to the applicable country's postal recommendations
- Restrict email to a specified order dollar value range, reward big spending customers with a coupon
- Restrict email to a specified list of countries, thus allowing for language specific emails
- MMUI and OpenUI compatible. No editing of the mmui.mv is needed and no OpenUI hook points are used
In admin, you create one or more template emails. Each
template 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:
Email to any of your
drop-ship manufacturers listing the Ship To
address and the products to be shipped if using real time credit
card authorization. The module will sort out which drop shipper gets which emails, including listing the products to be shipped. You can still use the module if you are not using real time authorization, but you would send the email to your pending mailbox until manual processing verified the charge, then forward to the drop shipper. This would save hand entering the order. In addition to the email, an archive flat file is created which you can use to easily track sales activity related to each of your drop-ship manufacturers.
Email to Ship To or Bill To or both thanking them for
a
donation to your sponsored charity on your site.
Email to
your shipping department listing Ship To address
and products ordered if using real time credit card
authorization. Products section can be torn/folded to
result in a shipping label with your company address included. If not using real time authorization, use the pending mailbox technique similar to the drop shipper scenario above.
Email a
promo coupon code if a customer purchases a specific
product or from a list of products
Email service, warranty, shipping and contact information on
specific products or
product lines
Send an email to your cell phone's text messaging
when orders are placed in your store (requires a cell phone
plan that assigns an email address to your phone)
You own a mall with multiple stores within the mall. Those
store owners rent the stores from you for a percentage of
their gross. Use mail manager as an audit tool to track their
sales. In addition to the autoresponse email, mail manager
produces a flat file with order ID, date, product name,
product code, quantity, price for each, and price extended.
Periodically retrieve that flat file and import into a spreadsheet
for easy analysis.
With compiled Merchant, the included Mail Manager Report
module can display the contents of that flat file
through admin. It can filter the report by specific time
periods (daily, weekly, monthly) within reason. The limits
of your PC or server may prevent very lengthy reports for
excessively long time periods. It can also limit the
report to only one product code. Since the templates can
be designed for each vendor, you can create individual
vendor flat files with a corresponding report for each
vendor.
Literally, you can have a different autoresponder for every
product in your store.
However, Mail Manager has a somewhat open architecture so that other events can also trigger an automated response. For example:
Send a
welcome email before the order completes, but after
the customer completes the registration process (for those that
create an account)
Send a thank you for
rating a product (using our Rate This system)
along with a coupon code for taking the time to do so
Essentially any event in the mmui, oui or even another third party module can trigger an email which you write for the
particular event
You can use the
ifvar script or var token in these "other event" emails. For example, generate a unique
coupon code with a module token and insert it in the welcome email to give the new customer an incentive to buy now. If you don't have an account with us yet, sign up and you'll see how it works.
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:
In the compiled version is a free form template using an
extensive list of
tokens and mini-scripts to customize the emails that
are sent at the time of order completion. They can vary
from mimics of the standard
merchant notification and customer confirmation emails to brief order notifications for better acceptance within cell
phone emails. The emails can be plain text or HTML formatted emails for better readability. You can change the fonts, colors, layout and even add images to your confirmation and notification emails. You can include data from other 3rd party modules, like Addendum, by using tokens. You can also create label emails with the "ship to" country address formatted according to the applicable country's postal recommendations when using the HTML template.
Customize your email and store's physical address
Designate email recipient, i.e. Ship To and/or Bill To and/or fixed email address
List full or partial Ship To and/or Bill To address
Restrict email to a specified order dollar value range, reward big spending customers with a coupon for their next visit
Restrict email to a specified list of countries, thus allowing for language specific emails
Write a different body for each of the email templates you add
Link to one or more product codes or entire inventory with wildcard
No need to go to each product to link the email, a copy and paste from a flat text file will add hundreds instantly
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 it
to make connections not directly related to sales, yet
linked to a specific sale.
Customer buys a kayak from your store. Tell them about
the kayak camp 20 miles from your store and give them the 800 number of the guy with the info about a big get together next month.
Customer buys an orchid from you which would lead you to believe he/she may have a specific variety you have been looking for. You autorespond with your want list for your nursery in hopes of finding the needle in a haystack.
As you can see, this list could be endless. Targetted,
intelligent autoresponders are designed to increase your store's
business and decrease the amount of time employees spend on sending out product specific, followup emails.
MMUI and OpenUI compatible. No editing of the mmui.mv is needed and no OpenUI hook points are used. Thus, module conflict does not occur. The pre-formed templates are easy to configure and do not require programming experience. In the compiled version of Merchant (4.14 and newer), 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.

Feature Details. 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:
Email to any of your drop-ship manufacturers listing the Ship To address and the products to be shipped if using real time creditcard authorization. The module will sort out which drop shippergets which emails, including listing the products to be shipped. Unlike some other vendors' drop ship notification modules, this one only includesthe products belonging to the associated drop shipper. Thus a drop shipper doesnot see the products being supplied to the customer by other drop shippers when the order contains multiple product sources. Youcan still use the module if you are not using real time authorization, but you would send the email to your pending mailbox until manual processingverified the charge, then forward to the drop shipper. This would savehand entering the order. In addition to the email, an archive flatfile is created which you can use to easily track sales activity related to each of your drop-ship manufacturers.
Email to Ship To or Bill To or both thanking them for a donation to your sponsored charity on your site.
Email to your shipping department listing Ship To addressand products ordered if using real time credit card authorization. Products section can be cut/folded to result in a shipping label with your company address included. If notusing real time authorization, use the pending mailbox technique similarto the drop shipper scenario above.
Email a promo coupon code if a customer purchases a specificproduct or from a list of products
Email service, warranty, shipping and contact information on specific products or product lines
Send an email to your cell phone's inbox when orders are placed in your store (requires a cell phone plan that assigns an email address to your phone).
You own a mall with multiple stores within the mall. Thosestore owners rent the stores from you for a percentage of their gross. Use mail manager as an audit tool to track theirsales. In addition to the autoresponse email, mail manager produces a flat file with order ID, date, product name, product code, quantity, price for each, and price extended. Periodically retrieve that flat file and import into a spreadsheetfor easy analysis.
The included Mail Manager Report module can display the contents of that flat file through admin. It can filter the report by specific timeperiods (daily, weekly, monthly) within reason. The limits of your PC or server may prevent very lengthy reports for excessively long time periods. It can also limit the report to only one product code. Since the templates canbe designed for each vendor, you can create individual vendor flat files with a corresponding report for each vendor.
Literally, you can have a different autoresponder for everyproduct in your store.
However, Mail Manager has a somewhat open architecture sothat other events can also trigger an automated response. For example:
Send a welcome email before the order completes, but afterthe customer completes the registration process (for those thatcreate an account)
Send a thank you for rating a product (using our Rate This system)along with a coupon code for taking the time to do so
You can use the ifvar script or var token in these "other event" emails. For example, generate a unique coupon code with a module token and insert it in the welcome email to give the new customer an incentive to buy now.
Use a render token to send an email from any page in the store. For example, put it on the product page to send a specific email when a specific product's page is viewed by a customer who is logged in. The email goes to their password recovery address (but could be bill to or ship to address). If you want it sent to a hard coded address, e.g. yours to monitor traffic,you would put your email address in the 3rd parameter of the token. The uses of this feature are endless. Send a coupon to entice customers to buy when they visit specific product screens. Tell them about other products related to the one they just viewed.
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:
Show or hide any of the data elements
Orient your email either horizontally or vertically
There is also a free form template using an extensive list of tokens and mini-scripts to customize the emails that are sent at the time of order completion. They can vary from mimics of the standard merchant notification and customer confirmation emails to brief order notifications for better acceptance within cell phone emails. The emails can be plain text or HTML formattedemails for better readability. You can change the fonts, colors,layout and even add images to your confirmation and notificationemails. If your shipping and payment modules are configured withinvoice notices, these can be included in the emails with a token. You can include data from other 3rd party modules, like Addendum, by using tokens. You can also create packing slip and label emails with the "ship to" country address formatted according to the applicable country's postal recommendations when using the HTML template. In the free form template you canalso set the time so that it can be offset from the server time,thus display for a different time zone in each of your emails.
Customize your email and store's physical address
Designate email recipient, i.e. Ship To and/or Bill To and/or fixed email address
List full or partial Ship To and/or Bill To address
Restrict email to a specified order dollar value range, reward big spending customers with a coupon for their next visit
Restrict email to a specified list of countries, thus allowing for language specific emails
Resend order emails if the customer knows and enters the order number and email which match the actual order. The form for these two data elements can be placed anywhere you can edit the store user interface, e.g. headers, footers, welcome screen.
You can specify the product code and an attribute/option value that must also be met before the email will be sent. This is particularly useful when the emails are used for vendor notification. A certain product might bedrop shipped by two different vendors and the only difference is the selected attribute/option value.
Insert a "require" token that has to be met before the email will be allowed. As example,have a checkbox using Addendum to ask a customer if they want to be added to a list server (mailing list). Then if they check the box, the "yes" response is sent to Mail Manager. The Mail Manager can then generate a specifically formatted email to activate an email address at your list server, if you have one.
Write a different body for each of the email templates you add
List products and prices or just the products without prices
Link the email usage to one or more product codes or entire inventory with wildcard
No need to go to each product to link the email, a copy and paste froma flat text file will add hundreds instantly
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.
Customer buys a kayak from your store. Tell them about the kayak camp 20 miles from your store and give them the 800number of the guy with the info about a big get together next month.
Customer buys an orchid from you which would lead you to believe he/she may have a specific variety you have been looking for. You autorespond with your want list for your nursery inhopes of finding the needle in a haystack.
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.
For compiled v4.14-4.23.x stores, this product has been replaced by the OpenUI Advanced, and OpenUI Basic, products...
The OpenUI Look & Feel module replaces your MMUI module and provides central 'hooks' through which module developers may easily add features and performance enhancing solutions without having to reinvent the wheel with each Merchant release.
UDPATED VERSION - NEW AND IMPROVED!
We went all out with this latest release of the OpenUI. We have included the following enhancements:
OpenBatches™ - This simplifies order processing in Miva Merchant like never before. You no longer have to go back and forth between the left-hand tree and right-hand main window. From the right hand main window, searchable lists allow you to search, view, edit, or delete batches. This screen also allows you to view orders within a particular batch via OpenOrders™, shows if you have new orders, and even enables you to create a new batch. This all happens from ONE interface.
OpenOrders™ - Using the main window, you now have a searchable order list that allows you to filter by all orders, only unbatched orders, or by orders within an individual batch. You can further filter by order number, product code, order total range, and by date and time range. From this screen, you can also edit and delete individual orders. Once again, this all happens in ONE interface.
An optional statistics interface that works with both the OpenBatches™ and OpenOrders™can be unlocked with the purchase of an OpenUI Pro license key. Find out your top sellers, revenue generators, sales by the hour and day, and much MORE! Read More Detailed Information!
This additional license key is solely for statistics features and will have NO impact on existing or future OpenUI installations. All stores will continue to function with the same capabilities as before and include the great features listed below.
Shorter URLS for Google - It was recently announced in a newsletter geared toward search engines and Miva Merchant that category and product pages without the store code in the url were being readily indexed by the top search engine in the world, Google. If you only have one store, the OpenUI will automatically remove the store code from all urls in the category tree, product list, search results, and basket contents screen. If you have two stores, your store code will remain in the url.
Example:Instead of merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=CODE&Category_Code=CATEGORY, it will be: merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=CATEGORY This applies to compiled stores with the mvc extension as well.
Feature added based on recommendations from JMH Web Services (jmhonline.net). *This information has been updated to reflect new findings from JMH. Google now does not have a problem with the store code.
Category and Product Names First in Title Tags- Miva Merchant and previously the OpenUI put your store name before the category and product names in their respective screens title tag (i.e. Store Name: Category or Product Name). Depending on the length of your store name, your category and product titles may not be appearing in your search engine listings title phrase! With the new and improved OpenUI, your category and product titles will be first in the title tag, resulting in better listings within search engines (i.e.Category or Product Title: Store Name).
Feature added based on recommendations from JMH Web Services (jmhonline.net).
A New (Optional) Interface for the Miva Merchant Navigation Bar (navbar)- You now have better (and more) control over which navigation buttons are displayed, as well as many other features including:
Ability to specify cellpadding and cellspacing of navbar.
Optional navbar background image.
Options to align navbar (i.e. Full, Center, Left, Right).
Ability to change navbar buttons including the logo to space, text, etc.
Token replacement in the Cell "links" can be done using the %VAR(varname )% convention. For example, to include the g.sessionurl, just use "%VAR(g.sessionurl)%". To include the store id, use "%VAR(Stores.d.id)%". Most available variables can be used, but they will all be filtered through the encodeentities() function before they are substituted.
Feature added based on recommendations from Rich Chatfield (customMvDesign.com).
Support for New Attribute Types Built-In- New Attribute Types were previously only supported in the uncompiled versions of Miva Merchant, but will now be in both the compiled and uncompiled versions, and will not require the Admin Extension installation.
Support for module Order Tabs Built-In- module Order Tabs were previously only supported in the uncompiled versions of Miva Merchant, but will now be in both the compiled and uncompiled versions, and will not require the Admin Extension installation.
Body and Head Tag Options - You don't need additional modules anymore for these two fields if you use the latest version of the OpenUI! Include javascript, cascading style sheets, meta tags, margin height and width, preload images, and much more. For example:
<Select One> Option for Drop-Down Lists - You can now include Select One as the default prompt for attributes, shipping options, and payment option drop-down lists. The default prompt is also customizable for each one. (i.e i.e <Choose Color>, <Select A Shipping Method>, <Select Payment Method>)
The OpenUI Look & Feel Pro License Key unlocks a special feature of the latest OpenUI module. Once you unlock this feature with your license, you will be able to see the total stats for the orders in one batch, all unbatched orders, or all orders regardless of classification. The stats page gives a total sales summary, and then breaks the total sales down by day-of-the-week and time of day (by the hour) the orders were made. The stats page also lists the top selling products and top revenue generators for the specified parameters. The stats are based on the filtering options you currently have set, allowing you to specify exactly what information you would like to generate. For example, if you are in the customer screen on the OpenOrders™ tab and click on the stats button, you will see the stats of that customer's order only. If you have filtered the orders based on the order total and the date range, then the stats will be based on this filter. The stats button gives you immense flexibility because it allows you to view stats using a single filter or any combination of filters. For example, you can see the top 20 products from those that purchased SOMEPRODUCT, or those that have spent over a designated amount....or use both filters. All these resources are available simply by clicking the stats button, which appears on both the OpenOrders™and OpenBatches™ screens.
This additional license key is solely for the new stats features and will have NO impact on existing or future Open UI installation. All stores will continue to function with the same capabilities as before. You can purchase a key by clicking here.
