Hello. My husband is a software engineer and understands web building and says he understands the concept of MIVA Merchant5, in general. If he jumps in and plays around with the different ADMIN features/functions and creates a "sample" of my store front, would it be easy to back out those changes and start over in a week or two to build the real store? Or will much of what he "plays around with" be stuck in MIVA Merchant - sample products/prices/inventory/etc...?

The goal is to get some experience with the tool before we make design decisions for the store - doing it is different than reading the documentation. I can read all day about riding a bike but until I get on a bike I won't know much about the reality of bike riding.

My customers have not been directed to MIVA Merchant yet so it will not effect business.

Thanx for your help.

Everything can be removed or reset in MIVA Merchant. Unfortunately there is not a big "reset" button in the Merchant Admin, but if this is what you are after, your hosting provider should be able to help you out.

I would consider running Miva Mia on your PC and running a copy of your store offline for the purposes of experimentation.
