Magento 2.x Feature Requests and Improvements

Currently Special Prices on Configurable Products show only after a customer clicks on a color/size. Special pricing is not displayed on Grids or Product Pages until after options are chosen (strikethrough regular price next to new price). Only the regular price shows until after the options are chosen. Magento Support confirms that this is default behavior. I would like for my site to function in this regard like all other M2 sites that have products on sale (sale price is shown on product grids and on product pages - without first choosing attributes). I literally can not find one M2 site that does not show sale prices on the grids or the product pages (before options are chosen). M2 sites like Le Creuset demonstrate the logical behavior I'm describing: https://www.lecreuset.com/special s   If this is functionality that all Magento 2 customers are having to pay developers to fix/customize, I would suggest that it is something that Magento should add to its core functionality. ...

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

In several cases when we are developing a B2B store for customer, they have a need for a role that could make purchases, but would not see the pricing structure. It would make Magento B2B module much more desirable, if this would be a basic feature in it. ... View more

Feature request from davidverholen, posted on GitHub Jan 16, 2018 Preconditions Magento 2.2.2 Commerce Edition (Most likely the same behavior in OS) API Integration in place Steps to reproduce Create a custom required, global product attribute that can be used for configurations (e.g. select) Create one or more simple products with different values for the attribute Create a configurable product over the rest api for the created simple(s) and leave the required attribute empty (I think the API point is only important for reproducing since creating the product in the backend would most likely lead to have the default value / first value in select for the attribute submitted) Expected result The created attribute should not be required for the configurable product when it is used for configurations Actual result The attribute is required for the configurable product "message":"Product with id \"%1\" does not contain required attribute \"%2\" Current Workaround is to set the attribute to not required ...

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. And in-stock products are not solely at the beggining of the category page ... View more

Magento 2.2.1 with 3 store view / languages In product ID 192, the product has a color option with 20 color value, and I have translated it for 3 different store view / languages In default store view: In French store view: In product ID 191, the product has the same custom options like in product 192. I click on import options in Customizable Options in default store view, and import it from product ID 192, then save. And then, I changed to French store view, the value should be in French as I translated in product ID 192, but all be covered by default value. And I tried to import it in French store view, but the value also be covered by default value.   So, for multi language site, import custom option should import with different store view, that will be much easier to add products. ...

The "Update" button for the billing address field is completely counterintuitive and bad user design. Customers do not expect to need to (and should not have to) hit an "Update" button for their billing address to take on an order. We've taken hundreds of calls from customers who don't understand why their billing address is incorrect on their order.   It would be much more intuitive if, when the checkbox for "My billing and shipping address are the same" is unchecked, address validation on the billing address ran when the customer clicked the "Place Order" button. Conversion rates go down for every step you put between a customer and hitting the "Place Order" button. This counterintuitive "Update" button step undoubtedly has a negative effect on conversion rates and should be fixed. ... View more

Feature request from m-spyratos, posted on GitHub Dec 21, 2017 I would like to request the ability to add additional charges depending on the payment method that a user has chosen. For example: [ ] Bank Deposit: Free [ ] Cash on Delivery: + $3.00 Paid solutions already exist for this, like Extra Charge of Payment Method from Emipro, but I believe that this should be part of the core functionality of Magento. ...

Feature request from DREC69, posted on GitHub Jan 04, 2018 An issue raised a while back, finally resolved in Sept '17 has now been made redundant. The issue was meta descriptions allow 255 characters, and this should be truncated since search engines didn't allow so many. As of Nov '17, Google will report meta descriptions over 300 characters. So Magento's now cutting short this useful form of CTA for its clients. Having had it reduced, can we see it enlarged?! ... View more

Our products are very heavy 65 lbs in a 24 x 49 in box, normally we would request a call tag option via FedEx for them to go out and pickup the product (they bring the label) instead of us creating an RMA label for the customer and having them deal with it. Fedex would then pickup the package on the date we request. I would love to see this option incorporated as it is best practice for us and the large packages we ship.  ... View more

Hopefully I'm not wrong by agree-ing, that this idea hasn't being postet yet. Well, even I'm pretty new here on magento, I miss a very important option to link pages external via the main menu. Let me explain what I mean; Since approx. 10 years I'm working with joomla! Because I now can clearly see, that magento is way better, faster and much more reliable than virtuemart (common joomla! online shop extension), I would love to integrate magento into my joomlasite, by linking back and forward via the main menu bar. I'm already working at a dublicate template for magento. If such a new Option would exist, than other cms user could use magento as they'r online store. Couldn't it be useful to add or to edit a category widget, which can point to a custom external link?   Have a good day and best regards! ... View more

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

Activate Bluefoot on Scheduled Events CMS  We have bluefoot installed on Magento EE 2.2.1 and it functions as designed, however we are trying to do scheduled events on CMS pages and the "Activate Bluefoot" button is not available in this section.  If you go to CMS page the wysiwyg will have the activate bluefoot, but from there if you want to schedule a change to the page and open the slider "Scheduled Events" the wysiwyg editor does not show the activate bluefoot.   If there something we can do to get this to show? Is this going to be fixed? Do we need to just extend the bluefoot ourselves to fix this?   Thanks ... View more

We are using "Match products by rule" in Categories and whenever we add any new products it is not assigned to categories in which we are using "Match products by rule". When we manually go and save categories then it assigns products. But in M1 EE products are assigned to category by smart merchandising cron, but in M2 we haven't find any cron timing tab to schedule such cron. So please help to include this feature, as we have many categories and to save category one by one is very time consuming. Thanks. ... View more
