MIVA Merchant Installation

Answer by:  Frédérique Taillefer, Aplus.Net Knowledge Base Support

MIVA is only available for customers who have subscribed for the eCommerce Unix or eCommerce Windows plan. If your plan is other than eCommerce Unix or eCommerce Windows you can upgrade it by contacting our Customer Care Department at 1-888-301-2516 (toll free) or at 1-858-410-6900 (for international callers).

You can install MIVA Merchant from the Aplus.Net Control Panel:

1. Log in to your Control Panel at http://cp.aplus.net, using your Registration number and Customer password.
2. Select Web Hosting from the top navigation bar.
3. Next, select Hosted Domains and click on Manage Hosted Domains.
4. Now, select the hosted domain that you’d like to manage.
5. Click on the MIVA Merchant icon to activate your Miva.

Two emails will be sent to the contact email address for the account. One of the emails will be from MIVA, and it will contain links to all of the documentation that you will need regarding your new MIVA store. The other email will be from Aplus.Net confirming that your site is set up and giving you the links to your MIVA administration interface and your storefront.

Note that your storefront will not be accessible from a browser until you create a store from within the administration interface.
