10.12.00 Resources (Release Date: 5/13/24 )
Miva Merchant updates include code and database changes that can take a short time to process. While we thoroughly test all updates to ensure they will not affect up-time it is still a good precaution to run updates outside of peak hours.
Miva version 10.12 includes AI powered Search, a vector-based search engine designed to revolutionize product discovery within ecommerce platforms, and is the first feature of Miva’s new product Vexture.
Unlike traditional keyword searches that demand exact matches, Vexture interprets shopper intent, delivering accurate results even when queries are vague, misspelled or incomplete. By understanding the semantics behind search terms, it ensures that customers find what they're looking for, enhancing user satisfaction and driving conversions.
Seamlessly integrated into the Miva platform, Vexture requires no additional plugins or external APIs, ensuring lightning-fast performance and maintaining data privacy, by keeping all information within your store. It works harmoniously with existing filters, facets and pricing logic, making it ideal for businesses with extensive or complex product catalogs.
Whether you're managing a vast inventory of auto parts, industrial supplies or bundled DTC products, Vexture adapts in real-time, reducing the need for manual tuning and constant rule updates.
Vexture is available in Beta only for now. To request access to the Beta visit: https://www.miva.com/vexture-search
Miva continue to improve on the industry’s best no-code website editor, PageBuilder, adding the new Theme Editor to its already highly capable functions. With the Theme Editor, PageBuilder moves ever closer to being a total no-code solution by offering easier control over things like Typography, Call to Action Buttons and Layouts
The Typography section gives you complete control over your website’s text; from headings to body text, the fonts used, the font weight and color and you can also set different typography for your mobile website versus your standard site.
The Call to Action section allows you to change the look and feel of five different Call to Action buttons that can be used on your website. Options include font, font size, button color, padding and more.
The Layouts section is where you can add breakpoints to create new sections within the Typography and Button styles that have been created.
Related to Theme Editor, the 10.12.00 release also includes Font Manager.
With 81 fonts loaded by Default, with 13 set to active, Font Manager allows you to further tailor your website look and feel, as fonts added to it then are available within the Theme Editor font family.
For additional information visit the Theme Editor documentation.
The Product Details Flex Component is Miva’s latest PageBuilder component that allows you to create and configure a Product Display page all within the Miva admin. This gives you the ability to create your own customized Product Display page without needing to make code changes.
Customers can, for example, create different versions of the same product page, with two different messages and calls to action – one page could give customers the option to buy while a second could provide customers a button to click to request a quote.
For additional information visit the Product Details Flex Component documentation.
The release of version 10.12 also includes updates and improvements the Miva admin’s scheduled tasks function. Previously, the Miva admin would only run one task at a time. But as stores have evolved and their needs have changed, there’s a need for the ability to run multiple tasks.
Now stores will be able to run multiple tasks – allowing stores to run more urgent tasks while more difficult, or longer tasks, can run at a different time. In addition, A new Scheduled Task Status box will let users know the status of the various tasks they have established.
