To reorder products within a given category
in your admin section, click on Categories on the left hand side
Then to the right of the category you want to reorder products for
click the “Edit” button
Once the page loads, click the Products tab
Then click the Assigned button
This will show you the products specific to this category
To the right of Product order is a link that should say Hide, if not click the word Show
You can now see the order products will show up on this category
If you wanted the Product 2 to be the first item, you can go to its box, change the 2 to a 1 and hit enter, not Update
You will then notice the order of products has changed on your category that you edited

So you have some categories (image one) and this is what they look like (image two). Then you add a third Category (image three) and you see what it looks like (image four), but you feel this is a sub category, or a sub type of a main category. So what you want to do, is set it as a sub category. To do this, in the admin, on the far right, click Edit (image five). Click the Look Up button (image six) and chose the appropriate parent category (image seven). Then Click the Update button (image eight). Now, if you go to the site, the site by default looks like Image two, but if you click on Category One, it shows you the sub categories (image nine)

Schrödinger’s cat is not dead.

This error message means you are trying to load the Assemblies likely found in .NET 3.5 Service pack one and the server you are on does not support nor include it.  Easy to fix, download the zip file below, unzip it, create a folder named “bin” sans quotes in your webroot and place the 2 files within the zip into that folder.  That’s it.  I have taken these files from a server I had running the correct version.  As with any download, be cautious and use at your own risk.

Click here for the zip file.

Scripts seem to have been upgraded but the backend was not, so the scripts are looking for a field that does not exist.  From my understanding may be related to core 14.

This post is primarily for when going from 4-5 to find out what module the missing one was.

For all of those like me that can never remember, when looking for the OINF page, look to the OCST and ORDL pages instead.

If customer is not logged in -> OINF Goes to ORDL
If customer is logged in -> OINF Goes to OCST

To edit your settings log into your PayPal Manager Account, Click on Service Settings, and then Click on Configuration.  You will find the correct settings to set these to within your Miva Merchant admin section, at the screen where you edit the Payment settings for your Verisign Payflow Link module.
