Magento 2.x Feature Requests and Improvements

Feature request from RMcLeod79, posted on GitHub Mar 31, 2015 Whilst the Magento documentation for Coding Standards state that PSR-2 should be used, there are multiple instances of protected properties being prefixed with an underscore i.e protected $_someProperty This does not conform to the PSR-2 Standard. As the docs state that PSR-2 is used instances of $_ should be removed. ... View more

Feature request from HirokazuNishi, posted on GitHub May 06, 2015 Magento1.x has serious issues of discarding decimals for some currencies (e.g. JPY, KRW, VND...). These currencies don't use under decimal numbers for currency. If merchants that hope to use these currencies, they have to use 3rd party extensions. Is it possible to add some configurations for handling under decimal numbers of currency? ... View more

When we were on Magento 1, we used a Crius Dropshipping module (no longer around) which created a purchase order with the customer info for each vendor who had a product in the order. The POs were generated at the same time as the order confirmation and they were sent to a designated email address for each vendor (I had them sent to me and I forwarded them to the vendor).   The module utilized transactional email templates that I set up for each vendor. It was pretty basic, but the email PO is all I really needed since I don't manage inventory.   It seems like this would be a fairly easy feature to add from a development standpoint since it mimics much of the order confirmation functionality. ...

Feature request from dbsdsun, posted on GitHub May 18, 2015 Problem: One block may template files. The Module Name is used to determine the template file location. MoudleB_BlockB can extend ModuleA_BlockA by specification in di.xml as following: In this case, the MoudleB_BlockB should use ModuleA as its module name, rather than MoudleB. Solution: Set target module name when generating a block as follwing. And this is last chance to set target module name. in file lib/internal/Magento/Framework/View/Layout/Generator/Block.php, after line 157, add one line line155. $block = $this->createBlock($className, $elementName, [ line156. 'data' => $this->evaluateArguments($data['arguments']) line157. ]); new line. $block->setModuleName($block->extractModuleName($className)); line158. if (!empty($attributes['template'])) { line159. $block->setTemplate($attributes['template']); line160. } ...

Feature request from SKovbel, posted on GitHub Jun 07, 2015 Small question, could you add column 'Attribute Id' to grid "Product Attributes" in backend? Column very useful for production site, its support and developing when you want to sort attributes by last created or separate by new and system, sync,. Alphabetic sorting by code not the same. Sometimes also lacks Attribute Set Id from "Product Templates" :) ... View more

Feature request from nevvermind, posted on GitHub Jun 18, 2015 As Composer packages get used more and more, if not careful, some of their extra configuration may clash at some point in the future. Not only that, but having an en-gross extra object, it won't be easy to figure out which config belongs to what package. It would be great if Magento 2 would spearhead good practice (in my opinion at least) and use namespaced configs. We already have the best candidate for this: the package vendor + name combo - magento/magento2ce : "extra": { "magento": { "magento2ce": { "component_paths": { "package-specific": "stuff" } } } } If not good practice, at least M2 will shield itself from possible conflicts with other package configs. This seems like a small change anyway. But with lots of benefits from where I'm standing. ... View more

Feature request from johngrogg, posted on GitHub Jul 22, 2015 It would be super useful to have the Categories assigned to a product be added to the returned data (similar to how extension_attributes are available). Even better if you could filter based on them as well via searchCriteria . ... View more

Feature request from danslo, posted on GitHub Aug 15, 2015 There are things like Magento\Customer\Block\Adminhtml\Edit\BackButton which don't contain any customer specific functionality, preferably they should be moved to a more generic place ( Magento\Framework\View or Magento\Ui ?) so other modules can make use of them without having dependency on Magento_Customer . ...

Feature request from licentia, posted on GitHub Oct 15, 2015 Magento should save the fee charged by Paypal for the transaction. This is very useful when trying to calculate Customer Equity & LTV. We have precise values and not approximate ones. Check this doc: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/api/merchant/GetTransactionDetails_API_Operation_NVP/ and the FEEAMT field. FEEAMT should be added to the protected $_getTransactionDetailsResponse in Magento\Paypal\Model\Api\Nvp And stored in the sales_order_payment table ... View more
