Magento 2.x Feature Requests and Improvements

Please make ionCube or SourceGuardian available on Magento Cloud for PHP 7.4.   We were trying to resolve this issue with partner commerce support in a ticket 354101, but Naga Harika Yarlagadda said ionCube is not supported for PHP 7.4 on Magento Cloud and recommended to create this feature request.   Jus FYI, ionCube officially supports PHP 7.4, so it seems like it is Magento Cloud not supporting it. ...

Feature request from FiveDigital, posted on GitHub Apr 16, 2014 Right now, there is not possibility to translate (or change) the routes generated for the frontend. The route to the basket is always /checkout/cart and it would be nice if we could configure or change the routes on a store view base. So that we can have /warenkorb in the German store view and /basket in the English one. Other frameworks like Symfony take the route in the templates and look up how to generate the URL for the frontend in the config (see http://symfony.com/doc/current/book/routing.html). Perhaps this could be a way for Magento too. The route name for the checkout could remain /checkout/cart but it resolves to whatever I have configured for in my store view and have a fallback to a default URL. Are there any plans to change the routing / URL behavior in Magento 2? If not, perhaps you might think of taking it into your backlog. ... View more

Feature request from ihor-sviziev, posted on GitHub Jul 17, 2014 For now in Magento 1 and Magento 2 when we editing product we have 3 scopes attributes: global, website and store view, but we have select only can select global and store view scope. As result - we have only two levels in value fallback: Global -> Website or Global -> Store view. Would be great have three levels in value fallback, like in config: Global -> Website -> Store view ... View more

Feature request from seansan, posted on GitHub Aug 22, 2014 Request for the ability. That when you have a grouped or bundle of products based on configurable products and when the simple product attribute identifier is the same: that you only have to choose it once So. When you buy a bundle of tshirts. (Where tshirt is configurable product. And per size is simple) that you only have to select the size drop down once - and this counts for all the configurable products in the bundle or group http://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/5002/multiple-configurable-products-as-a-bundle ...

Feature request from tzyganu, posted on GitHub Sep 16, 2014 I'm adding a new category in the backend, select one product and fill in a position value. After doing any action on the grid (filter, sorting, change page) the product I previously selected is still selected but the position is empty. In this example I change the sorting ... View more

If you use \Magento\Framework\Filesystem\Directory\Write::create() and the to-be-created directory is a symlink, the creation fails with an exception. In my opinion \Magento\Framework\Filesystem\Driver\File should implement a function isLink() with function usage of is_link() and the create() function should check for if ($this->driver->isDirectory($absolutePath) || $this->driver->isLink($absolutePath)) In our use case, a media subdirectory should be created, but already exists as a symlink to an external drive. In this case the function should not break.   --   Use case: In our case pub/media/catalog/product is a symlink to an external drive. If you execute bin/magento setup:upgrade, the upgrade fails with the message that it cannot create the directory. The check if the directory needs to be created should check if it's a symlink and if yes, do not try to create it as it exists.   (Support request 349912) ... View more

Feature request from mageman, posted on GitHub Jan 13, 2016 After creating a configurable product with 1 generated associated product, saving to a new attribute set, then re-open the configured product. and click on edit configuration: There are options to add an attribute whose type is not a dropdown, i.e. yes/no or text field, but after submitting these changes, the values do not appear in the new configuration! Furthermore, the new attribute is not being added to the attribute set! It seems wrong that non-dropdown attributes cannot be added. Why is it not possible to add these types? I am recommending the following: Despite the fact that the magento manual states that only dropdown types are supported, I am requesting support for attribute types other than dropdown, rather than the removal of options that are not supported. This would make working in the admin pages a-lot easier. For example, I could have a numerical or boolean attribute that I can generate associated products for. I was hoping to have the same user experience here in many ways similar to M 1.9. ... View more

Feature request from miketsl, posted on GitHub Jan 17, 2016 Is it possible (easily) to make one of the attribute products the default for the base configurable product? In other words, if I have black, red, and green watches.... someone clicks on the watch product, and the product details screen automagically shows a configurable default color. Also, if someone hits "add cart" from the catalog grid, it adds the configurable default color item. ... View more

Feature request from MonteShaffer, posted on GitHub Jan 18, 2016 I have noticed that the Captcha plugin is available, and I have implemented in my Magento 2 store. However, in the past, I have used much simpler Captcha plugins, and am curious why this version is considered the core, without the option to choose from one of several Captcha plugins. A little counter-intuitive to the abstraction goals of Magento 2. For example, Visual Captcha ... drag and drop an icon ... or click on an icon to prove you are a human. https://github.com/emotionLoop/visualCaptcha-PHP ... View more

Feature request from devdesco-ceo, posted on GitHub Jan 19, 2016 I have a situation where I have custom theme (Porto, based off blank theme) installed and active, and prepackaged Luma theme is not active anywhere in my Magento stores, so no need to trigger compilation on it. BWT when I run static content compiler, both Magento/blank, Magento/luma and Smartwave/porto are being compiled. That would be fine, but I am compiling 6 locales for my multistore/multilang setup, and that takes awhile, believe me! The command I trigger: php ./bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy en_US fr_FR de_DE pt_PT es_ES it_IT What can I do to pass a command to compiler to skip compilation of Magento/luma? ...

Feature request from lisovski, posted on GitHub Jan 22, 2016 Right now there is no way (I'm not sure) to remove columns from CSV/XML export using UI component.

Feature request from Vinai, posted on GitHub Apr 07, 2016 Before going through the work to create a PR, I wanted to ask if this feature maybe already is being developed internally. More details: Currently there is no service contract API to manage the system configuration in the core_config_data table. I am aware of the \Magento\Store\Api\StoreConfigManagerInterface and \Magento\Store\Api\Data\StoreConfigInterface , but having a more generic interface to build extensions to help with deployment and provisioning of dev systems would be very useful. Currently the only way to do that I have found was to use direct SQL inserts into the table, or use \Magento\Config\Model\Config directly. In addition to not being blessed with an @api annotation, the public interface isn't easy to use with the PHP array it uses. What I would like to have in the to be added service contract API would be a data object with a scope, scope_id, path and value. And a repository to save and get them. So if this isn't already part of an internal task and you think it is a good idea, please give me a go ahead. ... View more
