Magento 2.x Feature Requests and Improvements

There is no easy way to automatically add a widget to every product within a specific category.   Every time a new product is added, you have to go and edit the widget and add this new product to the list. Which becomes a problem when we are talking about 1000 of products.   The use case for this is a product type where we want a global instruction text for all these products within a specific category.   We do not want to include this text in every single product description, because we want to update it centrally on one location if needed. ...

please add the checkbox on customer register page of " I have read and agreed to terms of use and privacy policy"  since the customer privacy is so important and paid attention to by many countries. ... 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 M1, On checkout page there is following 2 option for customer to checkout ,   Checkout as Guest Register and Checkout In Register and checkout there is Password and Confirm password field which is for registering a customer. I would like to have this feature in Magento 2 when guest checkout is disable. Right now we can't force customer to register while guest checkout is disable.   If this is functionality that all Magento 2 customers are having to pay developers to fix/customise, I would suggest that it is something that Magento should add to its core functionality. ...

Using the Order API in either SOAP or REST mode with XML returns the payment's `additional_information` in an unidentified list, an array of strings without keys:   <additionalInformation> <item>0</item> <item/> <item/> <item>Credit Card</item> <item>1</item> ... These values are fairly useless and should be identified with something like this: <additionalInformation> <save>0</save> <acceptjs_key/> <acceptjs_value/> <method_title>Credit Card</method_title> <response_code>1</response_code> ...   The keys are being stripped by the Magento\Framework\Reflection\DataObjectProcessor, though I don't think that is the real cause as I was not able to change the way this data is sent. ...

On the ORDER > INVOICE > CREDIT MEMO form, the field Grand total is not updated when you change any value in the Refund totals block.   We should be able to see and confirm the $ amount to be refunded to a Customer before submitting a refund to a credit card (or to any form of payment). ...

It would be great if there is an option to add Robots Meta tag as "NoIndex" on product pages or CMS pages. So the pages can't get indexed into Google or other search engines if we don't want to.   This can be done using Robots.txt easily but an option in the backend would be great. ... View more

Feature request from bansavage, posted on GitHub Jan 25, 2018 I would like to display out-of-stock products at the end of my category pages. This option does not exist in neither the system configuration nor store configuration. There is also no effective way of programmatically accomplishing this task. Also, please note that this issue has been documented since November 2016 and has still not been resolved. This has been and is continuing to be a major issue. (https://github.com/magento/magento2/issues/7589) Preconditions Magento 2.1.7 Apache Webserver PHP 7.0 Steps to reproduce Create a catalog with both in-stock AND out-of-stock products View a category page and attempt to display the out of stock products at the end of the category page Expected result Out-of-stock products are displayed at the end of category pages. Actual result In-stock and out-of-stock products are mixed together. Out-of-stock products are not solely at the end of the category page.

I tried to create a new model, different from what Magento has and I was unable to create a fixture for that entity when I wanted to create an integration test for a method. I also tried to create a fixture for an out-of-the-box model (Catalog Product) and I was able to access that entity in the test method, so I was able to assert properties.   I am using: $objectManager = \Magento\TestFramework\Helper\Bootstrap::getObjectManager(); to create new objects. This works fine for core classes like:  ->create(\Magento\Catalog\Model\Product::class) But when I try to use it on a custom made module the data is not saved and I cannot load it inside my test. Is there an extra step or something we have to take in order to achieve the desired outcome?   ... View more

Hello Magento 2 allows the website administrator to specify the number of times a purchased downloadable product can be downloaded at the product configuration stage. I would be glad if Magento team takes this to the next level and allow backend admin to specify the expiration date for a downloadable product from the backend during the same configuration. For example: Set expiration date: Day/Month/Year or Unlimited... Thanks ... View more

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

Hello, Ive started developing magento2 and the cli tool is very nice and easy to use. But I was missing some tools for code generation like modules and themes. Everytime you create a module or theme you have to create the same boilerplate registration.php, module.xml and other config files.   For example to create a new module: php bin/magento module:create Vendor ModuleName   This code could be generated through the CLI tool. A good example is the @angular/cli tool for Angular.     ... View more

We would like the ability to import a CSV that includes a full redirect map of old URLs to new URLs when a site is being replatformed on Magento. We have found with many clients that they have hundreds of redirects for various pages on the new site that needs to be created. It would be incredibly efficient if we could do a bulk import function with this so we avoid spending hours building server level redirects or entering them one at a time. ... View more

I  know there are endpoints for both fetching an address by id and deleting one by id. Listed below: (customerAddressRepositoryV1) as listed here http://devdocs.magento.com/swagger/index_20.html#/ 1) To get a address  Endpoint: /V1/customers/addresses/{addressId} Method: GET 2) To delete a address Endpoint: /V1/addresses/{addressId} Method: DELETE The issue with either of them is that they are not accessible by customer token. They seem to only work with Admin Token Authentication. If a customer adds multiple addresses and selects a specific one to fetch entire details or delete it, it should be allowed from his customer access. Please suggest. ... View more

(From https://github.com/magento/magento2/issues/7852)   Steps: Run "bin/mage module:disable Magento_Review" in a standard Magento installation Actual Result: The module can't be disabled because Magento_Customer depends on it. Expected Result: The module Magento_Review is disabled. Is it really necessary that the Customer module depends on the Review module? It's the only reason why I can't disable the Review module and a quick search for "Magento\Review" in the Customer module's codebase reveals that only a single file references a class in Review: \Magento\Customer\Block\Adminhtml\Edit\Tab\Reviews. I'm sure this can be refactored to remove the dependency, right? ... View more
