If you don't know which OpenUI product you need, then THIS IS THE ONE!
The OpenUI Advanced (formerly OpenUI Standard) is ULTIMATE enhancement for your Miva Merchant store! Too many features to even begin to list, and all for a VERY LOW PRICE!! It gives you all of the features you are already used to from OpenUI Look & Feel Basic, and the following addons are include:
And the new OpenUI Turbo (double your OpenTokens speed!)
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.

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.
Attribute Level - Checkbox This message is shown to the user on the product page next to a checkbox option.
Attribute Level - Radio Buttons This message is shown to the user on the product page next to each radio button option.

Attribute Level - Select Box This message is shown inside of the drop down on a select box. HTML should not be used here.
Other Messages*
Out of Stock - Basket Line Marker 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) %%basket_quantity%% - Displays the amount in the basket and is unlikely to be used. (1,2) %%available%% - Displays the amount of stock left before hitting the out of stock level. (1,2,3) %%oos_level%% - Displays the out of stock level.

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.
Amount considered out of stock Overrides same setting under Global Configuration.

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. This array contains all of the product code, attribute code, and option code combinations for a specific product. It also contains the available stock, out of stock level, and other information shown below. This token makes it easy to create a stock table using OpenUI tokens in Viking Coders templates or in a product header or footer. Code examples are available in the help pages on the NetPush.com site. Array Structure: g.NP_Inventory_StockList[i]:attribute_code - Attribute Code g.NP_Inventory_StockList[i]:option_code - Option Code g.NP_Inventory_StockList[i]:stock_level - Stock Level g.NP_Inventory_StockList[i]:oos_level - Out of stock level g.NP_Inventory_StockList[i]:available - Stock Level minus out of stock level g.NP_Inventory_StockList[i]:allow_pur - Allow purchases even if out of stock from admin settings g.NP_Inventory_StockList[i]:low_amount - Low amount from admin settings g.NP_Inventory_StockListLen - Variable that tells you how many items are in the array (represented by i above)

Take a look over the shoulder of a Miva Merchant professional as he takes you through every step, every module (almost), every function. Complete with "live" comments unedited, you'll learn while feeling like you're sitting next to a Miva Guru.
This tutorial subscription is different than all other Miva Merchant training methods because it is constantly updated, there are OpenUI and MMUI tutorials, as well as extensive tutorials on most popular third party modules, including offline products like Storeman. With the cooperation of third party developers, when a module is updated, or a new module is released, Merchant How To will create a new tutorial.
And more as it is released. Click the link to see examples of tutorials.
NOTES: Please allow up to 24 hours for activation. Tutorial Flash files can be large, so it is recommended that you have a broadband Internet connection to enjoy the tutorials. This tutorial subscription is new, so not all tutorials listed at MerchantHowTo.com are immediately available. Also, since this subscription is essentially electronic distribution of knowledge, and since there are several examples and a list of tutorials available prior to purchase, no refunds can be granted on these tutorials.
The CheckOut SuperMod allows your customers to determine the shipping method for each individual item in a single order and then the appropriate shipping and tax calculations are made to determine the total shipping amount for the entire order. Items in an order that are using the same shipping method are grouped to properly calculate the shipping price for the group of items. Now your customers can check out of your store with multiple shipping methods or shipping addresses* in the same order and the shipping is calculated properly.
Key Benefits Include:
Advanced Shipping Screen that gives customers the ability to select a different shipping method for every item in the order
When the Advanced Shipping Screen is used, the items in the order are internally grouped by shipping method so that items using the same shipping method are calculated and displayed together
Customer can choose to go to Advanced Shipping Screen to ship every item via a separate shipping method or can choose to not go to the Advanced Shipping Screen and instead ship everything in the order using the same shipping method
Configurable title for the link to the Advanced Shipping Screen from the payment/shipping selection checkout screen.
Shipping charges from the Advanced Shipping Screen can be viewed on further checkout screens including the Screen Invoice and emailed invoice
Return to shopping after having used the Advanced Shipping Screen and the settings are remembered for checkout and shopper is automatically taken to the Advanced Shipping Screen upon checkout
Ability to split line items of multiple-quantity products into individual line-items for different option selections including shipping and address* selections.
Works with existing third-party shipping modules
Integrates and shares data with the Shipping SuperMod and Address SuperMod from Copernicus giving you even more functionality!
When used with the Address SuperMod, each item in the order can be shipped to a different address. Upon checkout, items to common addresses using common shipping methods are grouped together, and proper shipping charges are applied to each shipment. Further, items are then grouped by address for proper tax calculations to each address in the order.
Extra functionality for users of the OpenUI SuperMod – Special Virtual Modules and tokens are provided for advanced control over checkout displays. Bonus Virtual Module provides the ability to “Split Line Items” in the basket (normally only appears on advanced shipping screen).
Note: Multiple address selections are only available when used with the Address SuperMod.
For complete control of the checkout process the Address SuperMod™, CheckOut SuperMod™, and Shipping SuperMod™ all work together. Each item in the basket can then be shipped to a different address using a different shipping method. Shipping methods available to each address can be filtered based upon the products in the basket, the destination, etc., and shipping and tax for each shipment is calculated individually.
Please Note - The CheckOut SuperMod significantly alters the checkout process of your store. The CheckOut SuperMod takes the checkout process beyond that allowed by Miva Merchant, which is why the module allows your customers to checkout of your storefront with multiple shipping methods and/or to multiple addresses (when used with the Address SuperMod) in a single order. Please be sure to test-drive this module on Miva Mia with any other third-party modules you have installed. To get a free distribution of the CheckOut SuperMod for use on Miva Mia, just fill out a Trial Request Form at http://www.copernicusllc.com/support/free/trial.
In addition to the standard StoreMan features, StoreMan4 Advanced offers these additional features and benefits:
Direct Table Edit: Directly edit any product-related database table, including additional fields added to the standard databases.
Erase Tables: Selectively delete data by database. For example, create a completely new category structure without deleting your products, attributes or options.
Attribute/Option Import: In addition to the standard import of products, categories, products in categories, and subcategories in categories, you can import attributes and options as well. All product and category imports support the importing of their respective headers and footers.
Attribute/Option Export: Export attributes and options.
Global Price Change: Add or subtract a fixed amount or percentage from all or selected products, attributes or options.
Bulk Delete: Delete a group of records with one click.
StoreMan Advanced is a standalone Microsoft Access database application shipped with its own runtime files. (You do not need to have Access installed on your system.) StoreMan Advanced manages your actual Merchant database tables that store products, categories, attributes, options and other product-related information.
StoreMan Advanced works with either the Standard Look and Feel UI module (MMUI) or the OpenUI UI module (OUI)
System requirements for StoreMan Advanced: Operating system: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000, Window XP. CPU: 500+ MHz Pentium compatible processor RAM: 64 MB (128 recommended) Disk space: 100 MB free Video: 800x600-16 bit color (1280x1024-24 bit color recommended) Internet connection
If purchased separately, it would total $169.85! Get it now for only $209.95! It's like getting the OpenUI Look & Feel for FREE!
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.
The Power Search module is a plugin module which implements field specific, keyword searching within a Miva Merchant 2.x storefront. License is for ONE mall. Within that single mall, it can be used in multiple stores without additional license.
The purpose of powrsrch.mv is to allow a customer to search one or more fields which are made selectable by the store owner. The store owner can choose any fields within the products.dbf structure to be available. If you have an altered products.dbf structure, it will even allow selection of those additional fields (see screen shot below).
You can also exclude a word or phrase. An example of an exclude word usage might be: You sell health food but want the ability for customers to NOT list ingredients they are allergic to. So in the product name field you might have Soup. Then if you have a field in your database called Ingredient the customer could check the name and ingredient fields for searching. In the keyword input they would put soup. In the exclude input they could put MSG. It would search both fields. If it found soup in either it would compile those products to the list. But if the word MSG appeared in either field, it would remove it from the list.
Specific category, if selected, allows one category only searches. This feature may be too intimidating if you have hundreds of categories as the pull down select would be quite long.
New for the compiled version is the ability to specify a price range for the search. Also, in the compiled version we added the ability to display links to numbered pages when the search results exceed the number of matches displayed on a single page. You can use OpenUI Tokens to place the search form in several locations in your store. You also have the ability to replace the default form with one which you design with your own html (for those who know how to write html forms). The alternate html form can also be placed at one of seven different locations on the storefront screen. You'll use the default form as a template and can then add your own layout to improve the look and feel. Also if you are using the compiled Power Search AND the compiled Tell A Friend module, customers can send the search string from Power Search to friends. The store owner also has the ability to allow customers to search the category headers and footers for the search word. Because this may slow the search, you should only use it if your store has a moderate number of categories, e.g. 100 or less.
Faster servers may get decent search times with many more than that though.
Added new search algorythms "Any of these", Exact phrase", and "Start at beginning".
Store owners can create a list of words which will not be
searched in the "All of these" or "Any of these" searches. These are words like a, an, the, and, or. It will not exclude those words in the "Start at the beginning" or "Exact phrase" searches.
If you choose to use the "search single category" listing, you
can modify that from the admin control panel and only list certain categories in the select list, but provide searches of all of their sub-categories. This top down search adds greater flexibility over how broad you will allow your customers to filter the categories.
After going to the product page from a Power Search rendered search, a convenient "return to search" link on the product page will bring the customer back to the original search page if using OpenUI.
Power Search (version 4.63) has been tested with OpenDB (version 2.2)
and is compatible. In tests by James at Copernicus, the Power Search
improved the performance of the already, very fast, SQL searches.
118k products in the database, 2456 categories, two search terms "PC133 RAM"
- Normal Miva Merchant Search: ~60 seconds
- OpenDBv2 Standard Search: TT time=07s0620u
- OpenDBv2 Power Search (limit to code, name & desc fields and no
category specific search): TT time=05s0259u
For store owners who have found their searches
take too long, you can reduce the search time by only searching one or two fields. The Merchant default is eight fields, including fields such as weight. Now, how useful is that? Finally.... the store owner has control without editing the db.mv code library.
The total number of products found is displayed along with the list of products matching the search criteria.
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. Additionally, it helps you identify keywords which might be useful to include in the narrative descriptions or the meta tag for search engine submissions.
This module works with both the MMUI and OpenUI User
Interfaces (versions 2.22-4.x). If using the MMUI, six
edits in the mmui.mv file are required,
and one optional edit if you want to remove the
archaic standard Merchant, keyword search. If you have
compiled Merchant (4.14 or newer) that requires editing
and re-compiling, so for compiled Merchant, OpenUI is
required unless you have the compiler license. If you are
using the OpenUI, Power Search plugs into the OpenUI
without editing OpenUI modules and there is no need for
compiling in Merchant 4.14 and newer.
See the screen shot below, then check
out the selected field search in our store. We have
about 600 products in our store so you can get
an idea of search speed on a moderate speed server.
The Power Search function can also be used for pre-defined form pulldowns in your store. As an example, the genre and decade searches on the left side of this screen 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 products.dbf.

Instructions
Installation instrucitons may be found in the readme.txt included in the distribution package. After registering your license key, you can either use the "Product File Name Pattern" and upload the product files quickly with an FTP program, or you can upload individual product files through the "File Attachments" interface in the Product Details (Admin » Stores » 'your store' » Products » 'product xyz' » Email Attachments). You can combine both methods, fo course too - i.e. using the pattern for file names matching the product code (or another token or expression), and uploading individual files that do not match the pattern, through the Product Details.
You can use the module to attach the same file with every order (i.e. the license agreement) - in the MmATTACH » softgoods settings, put the file name instead of a variable/token expression into the "Product File Name Pattern".
We recommend using files of maximally up to several hundreds of kilobytes. Emailing huge files could cause serious delays during the checkout and common mailboxes are often limited in size and may refuse huge attachments. We also recommend avoiding executable files (*.exe, *.js, *.com,...) - many email clients and antivirus programs are set to block them. Use zipped archives instead.
Support
truXoft offers limited free support within 30 days after the purchase of the module. Issues not included in the free support:
HTML or CSS design questions
Any other issues not directly related to MmATTACH
Compatibility
Any UI (MMUI, OUI, KCUI,...)

Currency Magic allows your store to display prices in multiple currencies. Customers to your site can simply pick the desired currency from a menu, and your entire Miva store will instantly start displaying all prices in that form!
Exchange rates can be entered manually, or retrieved automatically from an on-line server.
You can configure the module to retrieve exchange rates from many different servers. Upon installation, the module is preset to use Yahoo.com. The documentation includes settings for several other public currency-converter sites, and explains how to create your own settings for other servers.
Flexible formatting includes international punctuation selectable for each currency, and customized display of negative numbers.
Advanced HTML and CSS formatting can be used, with plain text provided for emails and other unformatted displays.
Supports OpenTokens for easy installation in all template systems.
Compatible with all user interfaces (MMUI, OpenUI, templates).
Currency Magic is available for both compiled and uncompiled Miva Merchant. It does not require OpenUI, but it can use OpenUI tokens if they are available in your store. It is also compatible with the template systems from Copernicus and Viking Coders. If your store does not have any of these features (uses the standard Miva MMUI), you can still use Currency Magic.
Finally, a robust FedEx shipping module! It offers many more configuration options than Merchant's standard FedEx module, such as calculation taking into account dimensional weight, and declared value insurance. In addition, it lets you configure products to be shipping independently in their own box (or multiple quantity per box) and from their own zip code. Individual products can be flagged to have free shipping, products being shipping in their own box can be specified to have free shipping on a per-method basis (eg. free FedEx Home Delivery for product x), and individual methods can be configured to be free (eg. free FedEx ground). Individual methods can be discounted (eg. FedEx Ground 25% off). Individual methods can also have specific handling charges assigned to them. The merchant can specify the maximum weight to put into individual shipping boxes as well as a maximum number. The module uses a sophisticated algorithm to pack the boxes to the maximum weight while maintaining the lowest number of boxes. The methods seen by the customer in the drop down shipping selection list can be sorted either ascending or descending (or not at all).
The module calculates it's rates by direct XML communication with FedEx's servers and obviously offers FedEx's shipping options but otherwise is similar in functionality to the
UPS Online Advanced.
It's Back! After a brief hiatus, the UPS Online Advanced module is back and ready for business. The module no longer connects to the UPS server, thus adhering to their restrictions, but it now downloads zone and rate tables from Miva's web site using the same methodology as their own UPS module. Unfortunately, this means that the module can currently provide only domestic UPS rates and methods. I'm working on that though...
This new version of the module is a direct upgrade to the previous versions of the module so you can upgrade, if you desire, from older versions with no problems.
This isn't your father's UPS module! It offers many more configuration options than Merchant's standard UPS module, such as calculation of "oversize" and "dimensional" weights, declared value insurance, and Hazmat. In addition, it lets you configure products to be shipping independently in their own box (or multiple quantity per box) and from their own zip code. Individual products can be flagged to have free shipping, products being shipping in their own box can be specified to have free shipping on a per-method basis (eg. free UPS ground for product x), and individual methods can be configured to be free (eg. free UPS ground). Individual methods can be discounted (eg. UPS Ground 25% off). Individual methods can also have specific handling charges assigned to them. The merchant can specify the maximum weight to put into individual shipping boxes. The module uses a sophisticated algorithm to pack the boxes to the maximum weight while maintaining the lowest number of boxes. The methods seen by the customer
in the drop down shipping selection list can be sorted either ascending or descending (or not at all).

New for the compiled version is the ability to specify a price range for the search. Also, in the compiled version we added the ability to display links to numbered pages when the search results exceed the number of matches displayed on a single page. You can use OpenUI Tokens to place the search form in several locations in your store. You also have the ability to replace the default form with one which you design with your own html (for those who know how to write html forms). The alternate html form can also be placed at one of seven different locations on the storefront screen. You'll use the default form as a template and can then add your own layout to improve the look and feel. Also if you are using the compiled Power Search AND the compiled Tell A Friend module, customers can send the search string from Power Search to friends. The store owner also has the ability to allow customers to search the category headers and footers for the search word. Because this may slow the search, you should only use it if your store has a moderate number of categories, e.g. 100 or less.
Faster servers may get decent search times with many more than that though.
Added new search algorythms "Any of these", Exact phrase", and "Start at beginning".
Store owners can create a list of words which will not be
searched in the "All of these" or "Any of these" searches. These are words like a, an, the, and, or. It will not exclude those words in the "Start at the beginning" or "Exact phrase" searches.
If you choose to use the "search single category" listing, you
can modify that from the admin control panel and only list certain categories in the select list, but provide searches of all of their sub-categories. This top down search adds greater flexibility over how broad you will allow your customers to filter the categories.
After going to the product page from a Power Search rendered search, a convenient "return to search" link on the product page will bring the customer back to the original search page if using OpenUI.
