Subject: RE: [m5u] Using just the MIVA back end for
processing orders
Well ok then if you know PHP here's the function I use. I
send all "Add
to Cart" links through this page. It does two things.
First it pulls part information out of one of our existing
databases and
uses the part name to populate the clickstream analysis
software I'm
using.
Second, typically it opens the ADPR screen of Miva and posts
the product
information to the cart which initiates the generation of
the
htscallerid cookie. This posting method eliminated an error
where
refreshing the page once inside the Miva cart would add
another product.
Finally it redirects the user to the cart with the cookie in
place.
All this happens on the server end so the user never notices
the
transition.

Thanks. No, I've developed my own CMS with php/mysql and
I've got it
the
way I want it. I'll also be developing site nuances not
yet available
in
other CMS, so I don't want to abandon it and start a whole
new learning
curve. It's offered with my hosting package though, so why
not chop
what I
need out of it, and forget the rest.

MM5 with MySQL eliminated this issue on our end. I just use
the pricing
information from Miva itself to determine the price in the
rest of the
site. Same with inventory levels.
Vic is right in one sense though. Doing a store this way is
complicated, can be messy and if you don't already have a
site with
product info, it's usually more efficient to do it all with
one system.

Yes, its very possible.
The question is why? You really take away from the purpose
of the
software
if you do not allow it to do what it was intended -
dynamically create
and
manage your content.
Then you just have to update pricing in two places when you
make changes
-
doubling your efforts.
