Does anyone know the easiest (cheapest) way to change the term "price" which shows up within category pages and the all products page? Instead of it saying the word "price", I want it to say "fulfillment fee". I'm looking for the simplest and easiest way to do this. Ideas? Thanks. John

In case you got OpenUI with OpenLanguages activated then you can change it in the OpenLanguages settings for english. Just search for the text string and change.

I don't have Open UI at this time. Can you think of any way of doing it without having OpenUI? Thanks for the suggestion.

Nope. Unless you have the limited source kit and can make the changes directly in the merchant.mv source files, and recompile.

Easiest way is to get OpenUI Basic (http://www.mivacentral.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=m&Product_Code=OPENUI-BASIC&ref=WPAW) and Label Wizard Pro (http://www.mivacentral.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=m&Product_Code=SFMALL-LW&ref=WPAW), or OpenUI Advanced (http://www.mivacentral.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=m&Product_Code=OPENUI-ADVANCED&WPAW) and make the changes.

My only other idea without using a module is a Miva Script compiler to change it directly. I don't know if the latest free compiler would do the job and you would need anyway the uncompiled Miva code.

Thanks for the great info. I'll probably go ahead and get OpenUI Basic and Label Wizard Pro. You sure I don't need the OpenLanguages to do it? Label Wizard Pro would do the same thing? Thanks. John

OpenLanguages provides a host of other OpenUI feature enhancements, such as being able to create custom fields, meta tags, page titles, and a few other niceties to assist SEO.

No, you don't need OpenLanguages if that's all you want to do. Label Wizard Pro will handle the change throughout the entire store for you - providing you are not overriding any screens (such as with template modules, where you could do the change there as well) - but my guess is that won't be a problem since you aren't running OUI yet anyway.

Pamela, thanks for the info. I don't have a lot of plans for major changes to standard Miva...I'm assuming I could go either OpenUI Basic or Advanced and then add the Label Wiz Pro on top of it...correct? Any other things that pop out about Advanced versus Basic that might point me in one direction? Thanks.

If you just want a means to install and run third party modules, BASIC is all you need.

If you want the additional features ADVANCED offers... well, only you can determine that.

You can learn MIVA Script, purchase the Limited Source Kit, and Compiler and edit the source files.

Or, you can invest in a few modules that will help you achieve your goals.

It would help if you were more detailed about what you want to do exactly.

This all depends on what you want to do. Even seasoned developers tend not to re-invent the wheel, and many of us use modules whenever possible, as simply modifying the backend code greatly decreases the ease of growth for the site.

What are some of examples of what you want to do?
