New Advanced Tutorial – Showing Subcategories on Parent Category Page
An Advanced subscriber asked for help with a site update. As is the case with Advanced subscribers, if a topic seems like it would be interesting to my subscribers, I often offer to do the work in exchange for being able to do a tutorial. In this case, I thought it was an interesting project - having parent categories show subcategories, with images, on the page if they exist. It's available within the Advanced tutorial list, or, if you're an Advanced subscriber, you can click below.
New Introductory Miva Merchant Admin Tour
On the Miva Merchant site, they use one of my tutorials to demonstrate the admin. I decided a couple of days ago I didn't like the version that was up there, so I created a new one. It's a quick 6 minute tour of inside Miva Merchant admin created for people to see who have never seen inside admin before.
If you know anyone considering Miva Merchant, or have users who are intimidated by admin, pass along this link. It should help.
