Magento 2.x Feature Requests and Improvements

Hi, I am facing a problem with configurable products. If you create a configurable product and create some product variations based on lets say color & size, if you change the price and image for a specific variation and select this variation on the configurable product page, the price and image will change. This is a very good feature altough the expected behaviour for me would be that the description and specifications for this selected variation would be shown, in stead of the specifications of the configurable product itself. Why does it change the price and image, but not the description and product specifications? I attached a screenshot to give you an idea of the issue. I also used to have this problem in Magento 1 and found a module for this which solved the problem. However this module is not supported for Magento 2. https://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/sdocp-simple-details-on-configurable-products-1.html Is there a way this can be done programmatically or fixed in the core?   Kind regards, Falco ...

Currently in 2.4+, the process of applying category rules requires a manual save of each category.  This is extremely time consuming for a store that has a lot of categories and also could severely impact the cache if done during business hours.  These rules should be applied automatically or at least on a schedule.  A bonus would be to do this in a cache-preserving way. ...

We want to use single image for multiple products to avoid image duplication in pub/media/catalog/product folder. What we understand today is when we import same image for multiple products Magento will create separate directories for each product and copy the same image to each directory.   Can we improve this process to have single directory created for both the product which has same image and copy this one image only once to that directory and this used by both the products? ...

Magento 2, just like Magento 1, uses a WAY too aggressive image compression when product images are uploaded. They look blurry and dirty, and almost unusable - regardless of the quality or the resolution of the uploaded image. It would be great to be able to turn off or adjust the level of compression applied by Magento.   Catalogue images need to look crisp, sharp and professional.   Thank you! ... View more

In the EU a Gift card (single-purpose voucher) has to be sold with tax applied to it - in other words, gift cards are taxable products also before they are redeemed.   Example: A gift card with the face value of €100 including. tax, will be €80 excluding tax at a rate at 25%. The Gift Card has to be sold at €100 including. tax.   It is required by law in the EU to sell Gift Cards incl. tax and this can't be configured with the current configurations available in the Commerce Gift Card module. Commerce Gift Card product type does not have an option for setting it to use a Tax Class: https://docs.magento.com/user-guide/customers/account-dashboard-gift-cards.html https://docs.magento.com/user-guide/configuration/sales/tax.html https://docs.magento.com/user-guide/configuration/sales/gift-cards.html (Not to be confused with “Tax Class for Gift Options” which is another functionality) Example resources:  https://erply.com/all-that-you-need-to-know-about-taxation-of-gift-cards-in-eu/ https://www2.deloitte.com/ie/en/pages/tax/articles/vouchers-new-vat-rules.html ...

We always run into errors when including "additional_attributes" column because one of our custom attributes uses commas/description-type box. Changing the delimiter is not a good solution as it also means updating it on your machine. Our CSV's are usually transferred to multiple people and should always be ready to go with comma delimiters. We would like Magento 2 to use Magento 1's system of separating each attribute into it's own column. The importer isn't very useful for bulk product uploading if our most important attributes need to be omitted and we've resorted to a Firebear Importer module. Could this be something a future version of M2 fixes? This would avoid a lot of headache and make a much more readable CSV product export. ... View more

For a configurable product that has tier prices can the unit price on the product page update to the correct tier price based on the quantity that the user enters. e.g. Buy 100 for £1.55 Buy 200 for £1.04 each and save 33% Buy 300 for £0.78 each and save 50% Buy 400 for £0.70 each and save 56% Buy 500 for £0.62 each and save 60% If the user enters 100, the unit price displays as £1.55 correctly. However if the user enters 200, the unit price remains £1.55 whereas it should display £1.04. It does not display the correct tier price until you add the item to the cart. ... View more

Given to the documentation it's possible to change the image properties in view.xml. But sadly the quality of the image isn't reflected.   So it's only possible to change the values for the properties: width height constrain aspect_ratio frame transparency background (doesn't work btw.) The quality property is missing.   Please add the possibility to change the image quality property.     ... View more

First of all, I couldn't find a feature request like this one. If there is one, my sincere apologies.    I noticed that view.phtml and list.phtml have an IF-statement that checks the stock availability of a product before showing the Add-To-Cart button. However, when I use 'Allow Qty below 0' and 'Show Out of Stock products' I would like to see an option to configuratie the Add To Cart button so I can choose to show it or hide it for products with < 0 in stock. Both as configuration in general or product specifiek options.    Instead of doing this http://magento.stackexchange.com/a/32415 multiple for every shop over and over again. ... View more

When managing attribute and attribute set data via the REST API, all the endpoints required to create a complete attribute set with attribute groups and attributes assigned to that set and those groups are present and available.   However, the reverse is not true. There is an endpoint missing in retrieving all of this data for an already existing attribute set. Specifically, the attribute group that each attribute in an attribute set belongs to. Attributes for an attribute set are retrieved by set and do not contain the attribute group they are present in either. This is largely obstructive to the process of fully and bi-directionally integrating the attribute set system with an external source.   In short, include the ID of the attribute group that an attribute belongs to in the returned JSON when listing attributes in an attribute set using the REST API. (Or otherwise include an endpoint that would make this information available). ... View more

When selecting options, such as color and size.  The SKU and Tier Pricing should change.  If price and sku are fields when making a configurable product, these should change on the front-end when selecting the options.  I mean, images change when selecting color.   This should happen on the category view and product view. ...

A better way to do imports of configurable products.  Unless there is a better way, you have to type in every combination for the label "configurable_variations".  This can get very annoying.  I'm not sure why the imports do not function like Amazon or Walmart's methods.  Makes a lot more sense being able to make configurable products this way. ...

In my site, when customers click on a product image, a lightbox opens with the large close-up product images. I sell clothing, and customers like to see model stats for each different model image (model height, weight and sizes of garment being worn). Text in images looks terrible in responsive websites so it would be nice to have a way to add a text description to product photos to describe what's in the photo.   But there is no way to show text alongside the images natively in Magento (alt tag is too limited and not functional in all browsers). It would be great to either simply show a text description underneath each photo  -OR-  a more slick solution would be an on-hover block of text overlaying each photo. ... View more

Currently when using configurable products the stock threshold is not working.   For example: You have a configurable product based on 5 simple products. Shirt-S (stock 10), Shirt-M (stock 3), Shirt-L (stock 10), Shirt-XL (stock 10) and Shirt-XXL (stock 10). The stock threshold is set to 5.   When a user clicks size M the stock status should change to: Only 3 in stock. But it does not. ... View more
