Initial Scheduling Toggle State in Flex Components

delcorsets — Mon, 25 May 2026 16:46:33 GMT

I'm building a custom flex component with scheduling fields using the can_disable group pattern, and I'm running into a persistent issue: toggles are defaulting to ON when new list items are created, rather than OFF.

Here's the property structure I'm using:

```json
{
"code": "start_date",
"prompt": "Not Visible Before",
"type": "group",
"can_disable": 1,
"properties": [
{ "code": "start", "prompt": "Start Date/Time", "type": "datetime" }
]
}
```

I've tried several variations to get the toggle to default to OFF for new items:

1. "settings": { "enabled": 0 } on the group - toggle still defaults ON
2. "template": { "settings": { "enabled": 0 } } on the group - toggle still defaults ON
3. No settings or template at all (matching the pattern in mmx-mega-menu) - toggle still defaults ON
4. Nesting start/end inside a parent group without can_disable (caret-only collapsible) - child toggles still default ON

The fields are inside a list_type: group list property. When a new list item is created in Page Builder, both the Not Visible Before and Not Visible After toggles are ON by default, which means all new items are immediately date-gated and invisible until toggles are manually turned off.

For reference, I have another component on the same site that uses the identical pattern (can_disable: 1, no settings/template) and its scheduling toggles correctly default to OFF. The only structural difference I can identify is that in the other component the scheduling fields are at the top level of the list item, whereas in my component they are nested inside a group. Also, the component I'm having trouble with is global, the other one is not.

Questions:
1. Is there a correct way to specify can_disable defaults for new list items?
2. Does nesting a can_disable group inside another group affect its default state?
3. Is this a known issue?

Running Miva 26.01.01.

Thanks!

Basket Coupon Charge Not Showing in Basket:charges

Bruce - PhosphorMedia — Fri, 22 May 2026 20:55:33 GMT

Trying to add the Mica coupon redemption feature into a very old site.

The integration seems to work however the basket:charges array isn't populated with the coupon discount, nor does the total or comprehensive total reflect the discount in their values. Once you get to the OPAY page everything renders correctly

URI Import File Example

lesliekirk — Fri, 22 May 2026 19:38:54 GMT

I thought there used to be an example of how to create an import file to redirect (301) to a category. I asked the support chatbot, and it said there wasn't a "specific example." The link in this sentence doesn't work:

Detailed technical documentation on the feature can be found here .

MailChimp Stopped Syncing

Jim Cockerham — Wed, 20 May 2026 13:53:34 GMT

Has anyone had an issue like this with Mailchimp? I have two stores connected to Mailchimp with the Miva built in module. It looks like both stopped syncing about a month ago. The sync logs show an error: MER-FUF-MLCP-00077: Your API key may be invalid, or you've attempted to access the wrong datacenter. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the module but now I am not able to complete the setup to Mailchimp. I can get all of the way through setup to where you select the mailing list and currency but why I try to save I get: "Failed to create Mailchimp store after 50 attempts".

Multi-Domain and QuickBooks

lesliekirk — Tue, 19 May 2026 18:42:26 GMT

I did a little reading ahead of time, and if a store is using the Miva QuickBooks Online module, the docs for it have a note that says "Only one QuickBooks Online company can be connected to a Miva store at a time." How does this work with a Multi-Domain store? I asked the Support Docs AI. It basically told me to contact Miva Support.

The store I'm working with is currently using the T-Hub connector, and it could be worth changing to the MivaConnect QBO configuration if it can import orders and inventory from the two stores into one QB account.

Multi-Domain Additional Store without a domain name

Can a Multi-Domain Additional Store be temporarily configured without a domain name? Can it be changed at a later date?

Multi-Domain and Price Groups

lesliekirk — Fri, 15 May 2026 11:42:08 GMT

Still trying to find the best way to create a second store using the same products from the main store, but offered at a different price than the main store. Reading through everything, I had first wondered if the second store could be a Price Group. It would appear, if I understand correctly, that this Price Group also impacts the main store? So the only option would be to go to the "Additional Store" to offer different pricing?

Export a Branch

lesliekirk — Tue, 12 May 2026 12:23:43 GMT

Is it possible to export just a branch and move it to a dev site or even another store? Or does it still have to be the whole framework?

NTFD Product Name

greggc — Sat, 09 May 2026 20:49:46 GMT

Product Description html layouts broken when using page builder

Ron Frigon — Fri, 08 May 2026 19:54:27 GMT

I must be missing something simple... I have shadows based html/css layouts in my product descriptions. In my dev branch using the latest version of Shadows and page builder my description layouts are all broken. The css rules do not get applied breaking the layout.

If I copy/paste the same html into the edit product > footer template, instead of the description field, it displays as expected.

I don't get it.

"update" and page builder buttons, and dot dot dot menu missing until page scrolled

dreamingdigital — Fri, 08 May 2026 18:35:35 GMT

This is for Miva 26, you can't see the "update" button, ... menu or page builder button unless you scroll down the page and cause the top floatie bar to appear. I'm wondering why this design vs ui/ux vs usability was done and if it can be tweaked somehow so the big main functions (... menu for reload data after pushing with mmt etc, update button for manual update, page builder button to access that stuff...) can be added back to the init view please. Screen show helper to my babble.

I thought the update broke the site I was working on and my heart jumped into my throat. Nope, not broken, just questionable UI/UX vs design.

PS: Thank you for bringing back the fixed width font in the code editors in the Admin.

Shipping upcharge on products

bmotlow — Tue, 05 May 2026 12:49:24 GMT

We currently handle this via attributes, charges and fees, or flat rate shipping methods. A way to add a shipping upcharge to a product that adds to the baskets shipping charge instead of being a fee linked to a specific product could be very helpful when dealing with larger or heavier products.

Change log on a product and order level.

bmotlow — Tue, 05 May 2026 12:45:18 GMT

Something along the lines of the orders notes system showing what user changed what field when. It would be extra nice to see what the data changed from/to. Many of the systems we have used had this feature and it was very helpful.

Miva 26.01.01 is Now Available

Nick — Tue, 28 Apr 2026 17:44:09 GMT

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 Merchant 26R1.1 Release Notes

26R1.1 is minor release including the following feature highlights

MivaPay Wallet Enhancements (Google Pay & Apple Pay Support)

MivaPay now supports Google Pay and Apple Pay, giving merchants faster, more convenient checkout options for shoppers. These wallet payment methods allow customers to quickly complete purchases using stored payment and shipping details.

These features can be enabled through MivaPay without replacing your existing credit card processor, allowing you to continue using your current gateway while adding modern wallet options to your checkout.

Want to learn more? See the MivaPay documentation.

Exclude Products from Search Results

Merchants can now control whether individual products appear in storefront search results using a new "Exclude from Search Results" setting at the product level.

This feature is useful for products that should remain active in the catalog but not be discoverable through search, such as discontinued items with SEO value, custom one-off products, or internal-use products.

When enabled, the product will be excluded from both standard and AI-powered search results, while remaining accessible via direct links, collections, or other merchandising tools.

The setting is available on the Add/Edit Product screen and can also be managed through imports, APIs, and product feeds.

Want to learn more? See the Creating a New Product.

UPS InsureShield Integration

Miva now integrates with UPS InsureShield, allowing merchants to offer shipping insurance during checkout. Customers can add optional protection against lost, damaged, or stolen packages.

Want to learn more? See the UPS InsureShield documentation.
