7. Search Engine and Directory Optimization from JMH Web Services, Inc.

Miva Merchant did not have search engines in mind when they created this shopping cart initially or any of its later versions. It has the store name on every single page of the store regardless of whether it is a category, product, or any other screen. This is not very targeted. It could at least put the store name behind the category and product names on their respective pages. To top it off, it does not include any meta description or keyword tags. While those tags are not as important anymore, especially the keyword tag, it can be useful in some cases. There are quite a few commercial modules out there, but we will focus on some free and easy ways to improve how search engines see your Miva Merchant store.

10. Changing HTML Code at Start of Category Tree from JMH Web Services

Some people don't like the html Miva Merchant generates. They especially don't like how the starting table, td, and other tags start above the category tree. Here is how you can change it with just the OpenUI Look and Feel module. This tutorial assumes you have removed the default navigation bar and included your own in the global header.  If you don't know how, see this tutorial and using your own navigation bar in Miva Merchant.

Step 1: Go to Store Name > Hdr/Ftr - Global

Step 2: Go to Global Screen Header

Step 3: Make sure %OUI% is the very first thing you see at the very beginning of this field.

Step 4: Put the following code at the very end of this field.

This tells the OpenUI that you want to place a starting comment tag at the end of the global header on the storefront (SFNT), category (CTGY), and product (PROD) screens. You can add additional screens as you like.

Step 5: Go to Category Tree Header and add the following to the very beginning of this field

Make sure you copy all the text.  Try right-clicking your mouse within the above field and choose "Select All" before copying. This tells the OpenUI that you want to place a closing comment tag and then your new table code at the beginning of the category tree header on the storefront (SFNT), category (CTGY), and product (PROD) screens. You can add additional screens as you like.

Notes:

  • The table code added here is an exact duplicate of the code merchant outputs. Change it at your leisure by reducing cellpadding, correcting the horrible html, etc.
  • Remember that you don't need the Sign In or Affiliate code if you don't want it.  The beginning section of token code starts with %IF and it ends with %IFEND%
  • An example can be seen here.

Compatibility: OpenUI Versions: 4.x, 4.14-4.23x
