This module gives you template access to the actual
links so you can change them to be
more search engine friendly.
MIVA Merchant 5 does provide basic
template access to the category tree links. This module
gives you multilevel access so you can make each level
of the tree have a different font.
The tree template uses the standard store morph
technology template editor in MIVA Merchant 5. While
basic knowledge of how to edit MIVA Merchant 5 templates
is required, the module comes with the default template
that looks like the original tree. There is an additional
example which replaces the category tree links with
directory style links. Getting started is not that
difficult. This module also provides subcategory navigation
and category breadcrumb navigation.
Features:
- Provides full access to the category tree links
- Create links which are optimized for search engine recognition
- Provides ability to place subcategory navigation on the category screen
- Displays category page breadcrumb navigation
|
Feature Details.
Category Tree Access: The category tree template can be edited from the store edit screen at the tab "My Category Tree"
or from any of the page template screens. The template is global and as such, you only need to
make changes in one location. Those changes will be reflected in all of the screens you have
added this template item to.
If you have .htaccess re-write capability on your domain, you can even create directory style
links. As an example, you can change a link like:
http://www.pinemporium.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=1AA&Store_Code=PE
into
http://www.pinemporium.com/c/1AA/Software.html
In addition to creating a short url, you can include the product or category name in the url
to provide more keyword visibility to search engines.
Subcategory Navigation: You can list the subcategories of a parent
category on the right (main) side of the screen, e.g. right under the parent category title/name.
You can create multiple columns, thereby taking up less screen real estate when you have
categories with large numbers of subcategories.
Category Breadcrumb Navigation: On the category screen you can display the current
category and the heirarchy of its parent categories up to the store root level.
Our test store shows the category tree, subcategory navigation and breadcrumb navigation all on
this screen. You can drill down in the categories by clicking the link to Developer Bundles.
