Redesigned Administration Interface The MIVA Merchant administration interface you've grown to know and love is now better than ever. We've redesigned it with a whole new color scheme, simpler navigation controls, updated wizards, and new functionality. Top of Page
Attributes with Weight Some product attribute options may weigh more than the base product. In MIVA Merchant 5, you can account for those changes. With new weight controls on attributes, all attribute prompts and options can have an individual weight that is added to the base product weight. So now your "buy in bulk" option can weigh 5 pounds more, ensuring proper shipping calculation. Top of Page
Import Customers and Categories Flat-file import for products is a very helpful utility. MIVA Merchant 5 now adds to that functionality with both customer and category import modules. Quickly build your list of customers, or organize your product catalog. Top of Page
Automatic Updates Gone are the days of manual module updates and frequent software upgrades. We've implemented a new software update server that streams module updates and new product features directly into your MIVA Merchant 5 administration. Top of Page
Multiple Database Formats The power of SQL: now supported by MIVA Merchant 5. Multiple database access schemes are now available. Choose from the new MIVA-SQL format for standard installations, or connect your store with a MySQL (Native) database. Top of Page
Smart Commerce Libraries New smart commerce library detection in MIVA Merchant 5 makes it easier than ever to see which payment and shipping modules are supported by your web host's server. If a certain commerce library is not available, its respective module will not be displayed as available. Top of Page
