Hello:

I'm new to this user group. I've been seeking help from the merchant =
users group and they can't seem to help me. I'm hoping you can since it =
probably involves modifying one of my Miva files.

Here's what I need to accomplish:

I'm running Miva version 4.20, MMUI. This involves the Checkout link. =
Right now, the standard Miva navigation bar appears at the top of the =
screen. I'm only interested in working with the Checkout link. I know =
how to remove the navigation bar from appearing at the top. What I need =
is to have is the Checkout link to appear in my View Basket screen below =
the items in my basket.

I know there is a way to achieve this because someone helped me out with =
this same problem with version 4.13 with the following storefront:
<A HREF ="http://www.truebluetackle.com/Merchant4/merchant.mv. If you place an =">http://www.truebluetackle.com/Merchant4/merchant.mv. If you place an =</A>
item in the basket, you'll see the Begin Checkout button next to a =
Continue Shopping button.

Unfortunately, I am not able to locate this individual. So, I'm hoping =
that someone from the coding group can help me out. In the admin area, =
I can't even find a way to change the setting of moving the navigation =
bar from the top of the screen to the bottom of the screen?

------------------------------------------- Here is what I did try =
-------------------

In the admin area, in Edit Store>Headers/Footers/Basket Content =
Footers; I placed HTML code which would go to checkout. But, when =
someone places an item in the basket and click checkout, they receive a =
message saying that their basket is currently empty.

Here is my HTML code: =20
<a style=3D"text-decoration: none; color: #000000" =
href=3D"https://www30.addr.com/~rooftool/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=3D=
LOGN&Order=3D1&Store_Code=3DMRT">Checkout </font></p>

I did notice a difference between my HTML URL for checkout versus Miva =
standard checkout link. The Miva standard checkout link has the =
following URL:
https://www30.addr.com/~rooftool/Mer...ion_ID=3Db802=
7cc4d3f4dad41a4de56d8497cdd3&Screen=3DLOGN&Order=3 D1&Store_Code=3DMRT.

The difference is that the Miva checkout link contains the Session ID =
and my HTML code checkout link doesn't. This probably explains why the =
basket is empty. How can I modify my HTML code to include the Session =
ID so my checkout link would work?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------=
------------


Can someone help me out with this issue to get a checkout link to =
properly work and appear below the contents of my basket?

Thank you so very much in advance. A very desperate designer.....

Helen,

Since your new store is compiled, in order to edit the Miva Merchant .mvc
files you'll need the compiler and the limited source code kit. The compiler
is $695 at <A HREF ="http://www.miva.com/products/compiler/ and the Limited Source Kit">http://www.miva.com/products/compiler/ and the Limited Source Kit</A>

Then, you checkout link will look like this Checkout which will

If you buy the compiler and source kit, this is the list for questions as
you learn MivaScript.

You can also put that link that Chuck mentioned in basket footer, just
change the var to the secure link to your checkout (make it match the
"checkout" link from the Nav).

Or you can do as Chuck suggests and add OUI to your site and then you have
a greater amount of flexibility in what you can accomplish. Viking Coders
also has an excellent module called "Continue Shopping" (visit them at
www.vikingcoders.com) and this will add both an intelligent "continue
shopping" and a "checkout" link at the bottom of your basket.

Hope that helps.
