Here is the link to how to create a gift certificate in Miva:

http://www.miva.com/videos/articles/...icate-tutorial

We will be expanding on this to include information on redeeming certificates for account credit, generating and managing keys via the admin and customizing the gift certificate email.

Also keep in Miva, in order to use the new gift certificate features on the front end (redeem a certificate, manage account credit) you will need to make the page template changes which can be found here:

Re: 9.03 Gift Certificate Docs

The template changes (9.3+) outline multiple additions to the order contents blocks for pages such as the INVC and ORDS. Are these supposed to detail the split payment and gift certificate payment info? I added the template changes but nothing shows up. Gift Certificates and split payments ARE working fine, there's just no line item indication to the customer on how they paid. Is there an item that still needs to be assigned.

For example, on the ORDS > Order Contents section, we add this code below. However, nothing appears to be different when looking at an order in order history. That same block is added to the INVC page but the final customer invoice looks the same as always, whether a gift certificate is used or not.

 <mvt:foreach iterator="payment" array="order:payments">	<tr class="order-payments">
		<td colspan="4"> </td>
		<td class="charge-description">
			<mvt:if expr="l.settings:payment:type EQ 6">
				Refund:
			<mvt:else>
				Payment:
			</mvt:if>
			&mvt:payment:desc;:
		</td>
		<td class="charge-fee">
			<mvt:if expr="l.settings:payment:type EQ 6">
				&mvt:payment:formatted_amount;
			<mvt:else>
				&mvt:payment:formatted_amount_negative;
			</mvt:if>
		</td>
	</tr>
	</mvt:foreach>

Thanks.

Re: 9.03 Gift Certificate Docs

This article appears to explain how to setup a Gift Certificate on an individual basis. Is there a way to create one with drop down box, $25, $50, $75 etc on one page?

Thanks


Edit - Never Mind, attributes.. Brain Fart Here.

Re: 9.03 Gift Certificate Docs

Hi Dan, you can setup a product with the gift certificate values as attributes and build inventory variants. The pricing needs to be set at the variant level "sum of parts".
