1 OpenUI Look and Feel Advanced OpenUI Developer Consortium / Miva Central

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:

OpenFields (custom product/order/customer/category fields)
OpenLanguages
OpenMaintenance
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.

See Interface Screen Shot
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.

See Interface Screen Shot

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).

See Interface Screen Shot 1- Interface Screen Shot 2

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:

<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/Merchant2/cssjs/mivamerchant.css" type="text/css" />
<script language="JavaScript" src="/Merchant2/cssjs/nsresizefix.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<meta name="distribution" content="global" />

<body bgcolor="#ffffff" onload="preloadImages('/Merchant2/graphics/2.gif');" leftmargin="2" topmargin="0">
</head>

  See Screen Shot.

<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>)

See Interface Screen Shot

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.

6 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

Sort by name
- This example has the add to basket button disabled
- This example contains StatCat generated individual product pages
Sort by category
- Click through returns to the originating static page after addition (alternatively you can have it remain at the merchant.mv basket)
- This example contains StatCat generated individual product 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 Froogle^TM. It contains the header and data for the basic file format.

7 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.
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.

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. (1,2,3)
%%line_items%% - Displays a list of line items that are effected. (1,2)

1. Is used for the low stock email body and subject
2. Is used for the out of stock basket message and out of stock checkout message
3. Is used for the in stock and out of stock messages on the product pages.

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. 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)

9 Mini-Basket Display Weiland / Miva Central

Display a brief summary of items currently in each customer's basket as they shop within a Miva Merchant store, provide a storefront display of the shipping charges, and list their recently visited product pages in your store with quick link and add button.

Features: (some features are only in the compiled version - see details below)
- Summarize basket contents on most Merchant screens
- List product name or code, quantity, and price
- Use image to alert new additions made to basket
- Display a checkout link when order minimum is reached
- Use store's assigned shipping modules to preview shipping options and charges
- List recently visited product pages with easy add to basket button
- Optionally use OpenUI token to place the mini-basket in many places on the screen
- Optionally use token to place visit history outside of the mini-basket
- Owner can monitor live activity of customers visiting product pages through admin
- Customize mini-basket look in admin (color, size, headings)
- Built-in link to view main basket
- Optionally hide mini-basket if no products are in it
- Licensed per domain
- OpenUI or MMUI compatible (OpenUI recommended in compiled Merchant)

The Mini-basket "view" is configured in the admin interface. The title of the Mini-basket, column headings, font size and color are configurable. You also have the option of a checkout link appearing in the Mini-basket when a specific order subtotal has been reached, thus allowing for minimum orders if you have disabled the checkout button in the standard Merchant nav bar. You can also allow customers to preview shipping options and costs with a single click if they enter ship to location info. Customers do not need to be logged in to view the shipping options. The Mini-basket title, checkout button, and shipping option link can be displayed with either text or image. The basket title is linked to the full basket contents display and the checkout is linked to the checkout screens. The shipping option link runs the installed shipping modules to display the available methods.

In the compiled version of Merchant we have included footsteps of customers' recent travels to the product pages in the store. The display remains closed unless the customer clicks the link for the recent visits, thus not taking too much space. When displayed, an Add to basket button can be included so the customer can easily add products which they had visited earlier and now they want to add them without having to search or drill down though the categories. This reminder of pages visited lessens the chance of forgetting something before the customer checks out. The convenient links allows the customer to quickly go back and take a look at the products again. The recent visit history will remain available for the length the store owner has set for basket timeout. Additionally, for your customers who login, you can have the history availability extended for any number of additional hours, as they are more likely to return and make a purchase. The recent visit history can be included within the mini-basket table or outside of it. If you want to place the visit history outside of the mini-basket, you can use tokens in the header and footers of screens if you are using the OpenUI. We have included a "view" feature in admin that allows the store owner to monitor live activity in the store. All recent product page visits are listed the admin screen. Customers not using cookies or whose browser is creating a different session ID with each page click will not be able to display their recent history, however the store owner will still be able to see the pages currently being visited.

In the compiled version are new admin configuration options, e.g. border color and text to display when the basket is empty. If you are using one of the sort shipping modules like our Shipping List or our Sort Shipping Plus Free Shipping Option or the Shipping SuperMod from Copernicus, you can configure the Mini-basket module to use the sort order of those modules. You can configure the product data column to display the full product name, or code, or a portion of the product name (20, 30, or 40 characters). In addition to the several locations available using OpenUI hook points, you can use OpenUI tokens to place the display within headers and footers of the Miva Merchant screens. You can also make the mini-basket invisible until at least one item is added to the basket. You can also include an image in the mini-basket immediately after addition of a product to the basket. Many times customers don't realize a product was added so they click the Add to Basket button again. By displaying a noticeable, e.g. animated, image in the mini-basket, their attention is drawn to the basket and they clearly see the addition was made.

Version 2.x., 3.x Available

License is for ONE mall. Within that single mall, the module can be used in multiple stores without additional license. It functions within both the Miva Merchant (mmui.mv) and OpenUI (oui.mv) look and feel modules, appearing at either the top or bottom of the category column. If using the mmui.mv, you will add one line to the mmui.mv file. Note that if your Merchant version is 4.14 or newer, you'll need to edit and recompile the mmui.mv to mmui.mvc (compiler license from Miva Corp required). Hence, OpenUI is highly recommended if you are using Merchant 4.14 or newer. If using the OpenUI, the hook is automatically set when you install the module. There are several hook point screen locations available, of which one can be selected in the module's admin screen.

10 Wait List Manager Weiland / Miva Central

Customers can identify products that they would like to purchase but are currently out of stock. Once you place the product in stock, you can run the Send Email routine from the admin interface. It sends an unlimited number of notifications as one process, using Miva Engine functions to prevent timeout. Each waiting customer will receive an email telling them that the product is back in stock.

If you are using my Inventory Management (IM) module (version 2.x or 3.x) or Miva's Inventory Management (version 4.x), the wait list manager will automatically insert the Wait List link on the product page when the quantity is zero or less (version 2.x or 3.x) or out of stock (version 4.x configurable on a product by product basis). If you have modified your IM (version 2.x or 3.x) to allow ordering at less than zero to a specified lower amount, you can modify the Wait List Manager to account for that. In 4.x, this is determined by the global default or individual product's "out" setting. You can even block the automatic link insertion by including the product code in the blocking list through the admin interface. If you are not using an Inventory Management module, you can still use the Wait List Manager by manually inserting the link into the product description of products you want to "Wait List". In the case of "other" inventory management systems, you can insert the link into the code that those systems generate for out-of-stock messages.

When the customer clicks the Wait List link they are taken to a form to verify/enter their email address. If they are logged in, it inserts their email address for them. If not, they just type it in. The form also lists the number of other customers waiting for the item if that number is 5 or above (just to the right of the product name). This will give customers a sense of urgency when they receive the in-stock notification. When they add themselves to the list, you have the option (in admin) of sending them a thank you (for their interest) email. If you employ this option, it will also tell them their position on the Wait List. When products are in short supply, that may be something your customers would like to know. Also, if they are already on the Wait List, and sign up again, it will not duplicate their record, rather it will email them that they are already on the list and what their current position is on the list.

The admin configuration screen allows you to vary the name and/or image associated with this program so you aren't locked into the term "Wait List". You can also change the colors and fonts in the form along with the verbage in the form and notification email. You may even want to pass on a coupon code in the notification email for customers who have been waiting for a product.

When editing an individual product in admin, you can also display all of the Wait List records associated with that product. They can be deleted manually in this screen if you don't plan to restock the item. There is also a handy link for mailing them to verify their continued interest in the item. For those not using an Inventory Management, this is also the screen that allows you to use Wait List to notify customers when an item is re-stocked. The Inventory Override works with either no online inventory system or inventory systems from other 3rd party module providers. Naturally, it also works with mine (version 2.x and 3.x) and Miva's (version 4.x) inventory systems. You can even limit the notification in this screen to just some of the waiting customers. This is useful when you only receive a small number of the out-of-stock item and there are many more waiting for it. Since the entries are arranged in order, it is easy to give those on the waiting list the longest, the first shot at the newly re-stocked item.

You can quickly get a summary of all of the items on "Wait List" to provide you with a re-order, based on demand, tool.

When you Send Email, the module searches all products with a stock level (if using mine or Miva's Inventory Management systems) above zero and checks the product code against the Wait List database. Pending Wait List customers are notified of the re-stock of the product and their Wait List record is then deleted.

This module works with both the Miva Merchant and OpenUI look and feel user interfaces. Minor editing is required if you are not using the OpenUI.

To help the store owner identify needs quickly, an optional CC email can be sent when an item is wait listed.

In the compiled version, you can use this module with the standard MMUI, as mmui.mv edits are not required in Merchant versions 4.14 and newer.

New in the compiled version is an alternate template form for the customer to enter their name and email address. This template can be HTML customized to suit your look and feel. If you are not skilled at coding HTML, you can still use the default (built in) form which is customized with colors, fonts, etc with easy inputs in admin.

The compiled version of this module can use OpenTokens instead of hook points within OpenObjects. The OpenDesigner screen lists the OpenObjects which can replace all or some screens within the OpenUI user interface. The OpenObjects provide a template screen which contains the existing hook points (backward compatibility), OpenToken capability, and the ability to move output around within the OpenObject screen. Since the tokens in this module conform to OpenToken functionality, they may be used in other template type screens like those provided by Viking Coders. Place the wait list button on the Merchant pages so that it better fits your desired look.

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

12 Power Search Weiland / Miva Central

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.

14 HTML Formatted Customer Confirmation truXoft / Miva Central

This module will allow you to send customer order confirmation or notification emails optionally by HTML formatted e-mail, in plain text or in plain-text with an HTML page as a file attachment.

The HTML Formatted Customer Confirmation module lets you totally customize the email confirmations to include descriptions, images, and more.

Merchant users and owners often complain about the readability of the notification e-mail. They are not aware of the fact that classical e-mail protocol (SMTP ) does not have any text formatting features. For these reasons, IT professionals use to set their mail clients to display messages in a fixed width font. That allows seeing formatting of such texts like Customer Order Confirmation E-mail, without any hassle.

There is also the possibility to send e-mail messages for example in the HTML format. HTML is supported by all current major mail clients. Among IT professionals, the HTML e-mail is not too popular, because of related security problems in some client versions, because of increasing the transferred data volumes, and maybe because of few other reasons.

However, HTML offers possibilities not available with plain SMTP and the formatting is often requested feature. The way MmHTMLc module implements the HTML format is secure for both sides and the transferred data is only slightly higher than at a plain-text message (in contrary to messages formatted within Outlook or other clients, where the volume may be easily the multiple of the original size).

The store owner may select between HTML, plain-text or a combination of both formats (Plain text in the message body and an HTML page in the file attachment. MmHTMLc allows you to customize the look and feel of the notification message. You can change colors, fonts, sizes, add logos, images, formatted text and anything else you may need.

NEW: MmHTMLc can be now configured to display the customized invoice with all the additional features (headers, footers, formatting, additional expressions, additional column, sorting,...) also instead of the standard checkout on-screen inovice.

15 Shipping by Product by State Zone Weiland / Miva Central

Calculate shipping by product as a fixed amount or as a percentage of the product's cost AND by the method of shipping AND by the "ship to" State Zone. Each products' shipping cost is summed to arrive at the order's shipping cost. This module provides flexibility to combine flat rate and percentage of subtotal calculations on a product by product basis.

The store owner initially sets up the available storewide shipping methods and rates for the store. You can have multiple methods for as many State Zones as you establish. You establish which states belong to which State Zone. You can then let the storewide methods and rates apply to each product in the store or you can establish "Shipping Override" by product or by category. If you desire every product in a category to have a shipping cost different from the storewide costs, you set up that category's "Shipping Override" methods from the Category tab. You can even use some storewide and some category specific. Then if you have specific shipping costs for specific products, you can select the "Shipping Override" tab in the product edit screen. You can use the storewide methods and rates or override with the product specific rate. The product specific rates take precedence over the category specific rates and the category specific rates take precedence over the storewide rates.

The "Shipping Override" costs can be set as percentage or fixed amount and need not use the same calculation formula as the storewide calculation for the same method. The "Shipping Override" charges can even be zero so that shipping can be free for certain products or categories. As an example, the store might charge $4.00 for each item for priority mail. However, they may charge 2% of the item's cost in the jewelry category. As the shipping module summed the costs, it would apply the $4.00 to each item that did not have a "Shipping Override". Then it would multiply the 2% times each purchased item's cost in the jewelry category and add it to the sum.

The module even provides an input for a handling or base charge. That amount can be different for each method of shipping and is added after all of the individual product shipping charges are summed.

Like our other State Zone shipping modules, you can have different methods and rates for different areas of the country. When the customer enters their "ship to" address during checkout, the module determines which shipping methods will be available to that customer. Only methods established for their "ship to" state will be visible in the shipping and payment selection screen.

This module is compatible with the MMUI and OpenUI look and feel user interfaces. It is licensed per domain which means if you have multiple stores under one domain, there are no additional license fees for this module within that one domain/mall.

16 Shipping by Product by World Zone Weiland / Miva Central

Calculate shipping by product as a fixed amount or as a percentage of the product's cost AND by the method of shipping AND by the "ship to" World Zone. Each products' shipping cost is summed to arrive at the order's shipping cost. This module provides flexibility to combine flat rate and percentage of subtotal calculations on a product by product basis.

The store owner initially sets up the available storewide shipping methods and rates for the store. You can have multiple methods for as many World Zones as you establish. You establish which countries belong to which World Zone. You can then let the storewide methods and rates apply to each product in the store or you can establish "Shipping Override" by product or by category. If you desire every product in a category to have a shipping cost different from the storewide costs, you set up that category's "Shipping Override" methods from the Category tab. You can even use some storewide and some category specific. Then if you have specific shipping costs for specific products, you can select the "Shipping Override" tab in the product edit screen. You can use the storewide methods and rates or override with the product specific rate.

Like our other World Zone shipping modules, you can have different methods and rates for different areas of the World. When the customer enters their "ship to" address during checkout, the module determines which shipping methods will be available to that customer. Only methods established for their "ship to" country will be visible in the shipping and payment selection screen.

17 HTML Formatted Merchant Notification truXoft / Miva Central

No more broken lines and column aligning in order notifications! MmHTML allows you to format the merchant notification: proper aligning, fonts, sizes, HTML header and footer, embeded images, hyperlinks. MmHTML adds also the payment data and a detailed user tracking information to the report.

Merchant users and owners often complain about the readability of the notification e-mail. They are not aware of the fact that classical e-mail protocol (SMTP ) does not have any text formatting features. For these reasons, IT professionals use to set their mail clients to display messages in a fixed width font. That allows seeing formatting of such texts like Miva Merchant notification e-mail, without any hassle.

However, HTML offers possibilities not available with plain SMTP and the formatting is often requested feature. The way MmHTML module implements the HTML format is secure for both sides and the transferred data is only slightly higher than at a plain-text message (in contrary to messages formatted within Outlook or other clients, where the volume may be easily the multiple of the original size).

MmHTML allows you to customize the look and feel of the notification message. You can change colors, fonts, sizes, add logos, images, formatted text and anything else you may need. At the Merchant notification, fancy e-mail formatting is probably not as important as aligning of the columns, but it may be more interesting at the Customer Notification Module MmHTMLc.

18 PayPal Payment Acceptance Weiland / Miva Central

The purpose of this module is to allow customers to place an order at a Miva Merchant™ Storefront Development System © Miva Corp which they will then pay for using their PayPal © x.com account. This payment module is licensed per domain. No additional store licenses are required if used within the same mall. The current version works with Merchant 2.x, 3.x and 4.x.

If your PayPal account is either a "Business" or "Premier" PayPal account, this module guides the customer to the PayPal payment screens so that they do not get to the invoice screen without properly entering pay data. When the customer clicks the Pay button at the PayPal site, you can have the PayPal Instant Payment Notification (IPN) send a silent update back to your payment history file which can be viewed in your Merchant admin:order edit screen. Unlike some other modules, if the customer does not return to Merchant, his order will still be processed and email notifications sent. When returning to your store, the invoice page will be displayed. You can also add additional instructions to inform customers what to expect at the PayPal site through the admin interface. If you are using Addendum in your store, you will need to use Addendum version 3.08 or newer when using the PayPal module. If your PayPal account is a "Personal" account, the flow for payment is a bit different. Contact me if your PayPal account is a "personal" PayPal account and I will give you the details.

Although the PayPal system is not like real time credit card processing and authorization systems, it is more like using the simple credit card validation. PayPal does the authorization using it's web accept and sends you a confirmation email. You match the Merchant notification emails with the PayPal confirmation emails. For added security, it is advisable to check the status on the PayPal web site (linked within Merchant admin). Once confirmations are verified that the money has transferred to your account, you can ship the products.

The Merchant version 2.x, 3.x and 4.x PayPal payment module can be used with both the MMUI and OpenUI look and feel. A single edit is needed if you are using the MMUI AND your PayPal account is a "Personal" account. If you have a "Business" or "Premier" PayPal account, the MMUI edit is NOT needed. An optional code edit can be also made to include the payment method in the merchant notification email. You may find it advantageous to use our Show Payment Type module instead which lists all payment methods in the email, not just PayPal. No code edits are needed if you are using the OpenUI for either the PayPal or Show Payment Type modules.

New in the compiled version is a report module. You can list orders by any time frame and specify only orders with a specific product code in them. You can also sort it by state or country according to their paypal.com account registration

This module is particularly useful for the small sized Mom and Pop store which does not want the added expense of setting up Merchant credit card accounts and having to meet minimum sales quotas. This store is a prime example, as I do not take credit cards directly. Rather you can pay for software at this store using PayPal, by signing up and debiting your credit card at PayPal. Try it out, I think you'll like it.

Additionally, it is a nice option for the big guys in that it makes online fulfillment possible for those customers who don't have credit cards but have built up an online balance through their own sales, e.g. through eBay. PayPal is the predominant method of payment at eBay. There are over 16,000,000 million PayPal accounts. Do not overlook these as potential customers at your store. Over 30,000 websites accept PayPal and are listed in the PayPal Shops at paypal.com. Can you afford not to be in that list? PayPal accounts are available to customers in the United States and many other countries around the world.

19 Vendor Notification Email truXoft / Miva Central

With MmVENDOR you can define individual notification for each of your suppliers so that he automatically receives notification about products assotiated with him upon the purchase. Unlimited number of individual notifications may be defined and each vendor receives the notification only if a product associated with him is included. Products not assigned to the respective vendor are being filtered out.

Merchant users and owners often complain about the readability of the notification e-mail. They are not aware of the fact that classical e-mail protocol ( SMTP ) does not have any text formatting features. For these reasons, IT professionals use to set their mail clients to display messages in a fixed width font. That allows seeing formatting of such texts like Miva Merchant notification e-mail, without any hassle.

However, HTML offers possibilities not available with plain SMTP and the formatting is often requested feature. The way MmVENDOR module implements the HTML format is secure for both sides and the transferred data is only slightly higher than at a plain-text message (in contrary to messages formatted within Outlook or other clients, where the volume may be easily the multiple of the original size).

MmVENDOR allows you to customize the look and feel of the notification message. You can change colors, fonts, sizes, add logos, images, formatted text and anything else you may need.

20 Paypal Subscription Payment Weiland / Emporium Plus

The purpose of this module is to allow customers to place a subscription order at a Miva Merchant (? Miva Corp) store which they will then pay for using their PayPal (? x.com) account. This module is licensed per domain. No additional store licenses are required if used within the same mall.

This module is specifically designed for subscription payments. It allows scheduling one or two trial periods, with or without a charge on the first trial. The second trail, if used, would charge the customer. You can skip the trial periods and only offer the regular subscription. The subsciption allows intervals established in days, weeks, months and years. The customer makes the first payment. They then pay at the store's preset interval automatically. PayPal notifies them as each payment due is paid. If the customer cancels or does not pay at any interval, the store owner is notified so that he/she can turn off the subscription. PayPal manages the payments and intervals and deposits the payments into your account automatically.

This module guides the customer to the PayPal payment screens so that they do not get to the invoice screen without properly entering pay data. When the customer clicks the Pay button at the PayPal site, you can have the PayPal Instant Payment Notification send a silent update back to your payment history file which can be viewed in your Merchant admin:order edit screen. Unlike some other modules, if the customer does not return to Merchant, his order will still be processed and email notifications sent. When returning to your store, the invoice page will be displayed. You can also add additional instructions to inform customers what to expect at the PayPal site.

The module default will allow all of your products to be purchased with subscriptions. However, you can limit that to only product codes which you want to sell as subscriptions. Use this module for magazine or ezine subscriptions. You can even use it for membership programs. As long as the customer keeps their payments current, you keep their membership active. If they fail to keep current, PayPal notifies you of the status. Use it to manage domain registrations or web hosting fees. If you sell software licenses which are renewable, PayPal can keep track of the renewal dates and notify the customer and you.

Although the PayPal system is not like real time credit card processing and authorization systems, it is more like using the simple credit card validation. PayPal does the authorization and sends you a confirmation email. You match the Merchant notification emails with the PayPal confirmation emails. For added security, it is advisable to check the status on the PayPal web site (linked to the specific transaction within Merchant admin). Once confirmations are verified that the money has transferred to your account, you can supply the products.

The Merchant version 2.x, 3.x and 4.x PayPal payment module can be used with both the MMUI and OpenUI look and feel. If using the MMUI, an optional code edit can be also made to include the payment method in the merchant notification email. You may find it advantageous to use our Show Payment Type module instead which lists all payment methods in the email, not just PayPal. No code edits are needed if you are using the OpenUI for either the PayPal or Show Payment Type modules.
