Add products to 2 categories?

Hi all,

I’m new to magento, and websites in general, for my work I’ve been tasked to clean up our webshop. Now I have multiple categories, one of which is our sale. The products that are in the categorie Sale also have to be in their own category.

I’ve managed to add the products to both categories but when im in the sale tab on the website the products dont link to their own URL. Does anyone know how i can fix this?

I truly hope that my question makes sense.

Catalog product link widget, changing color

Hey all, I’m hoping someone can help me, I’ve been using a widget to create a link to different products, but to make it stand about in the text, I wanted to make the link a different color, I’m not sure how to do this with this widget though, there’s no obvious option.

I tried adding the color into the code the widget provides, but with mixed results.

Here’s what it looks like before I change anything.

{{widget type=”MagentoCatalogBlockProductWidgetLink” anchor_text=”product name” template=”product/widget/link/inline.ptml” id_path=”product/41″}}

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

I’d love to hear your feedback. Also, feel free to share any ideas you have. I’ve got some free time and would be happy to work on something new!

Cms Publishing, Versioning

We’re looking at a rebuild this next 2 yeats with Hyva and Commerce Cloud, but one thing I really want to get right is the CMS. I’ve read and implemented numerous different types (PWA, Hybrid, local stack, etc), but I’m struggling with the “right” solution for our case. 40 or so pages, lots of content and imagery.

Ideally, I’d like to stick with Magento if possible, I don’t want headless as we’re a small team and I see no need for the extra overhead for such a small amount of pages and content overall. But Page Builder just isn’t..enough. It’s ok for someone that’s a light FE dev but not terribly intuitive for marketing departments who want to make minimal changes without causing issues elsewhere in the page/block. Ways to cut down on complexity for editing means more finely tuned layouts, widgets, or custom bits on the engineering team. All good, but if we can save time, that’s the idea 🙂

On to the nitty gritty: We use Staged changes quite often, have integration/staging/prod (we bypass cloud integration env as it’s probably the worst hosting for a paid service as you could ask for), but we’re constantly doubling up work from staging to prod – a waste of time and also prone to human error. We could build something that would version and connect the two environments together, but my question is if anyone has used or built a solution already?

Basic needs: – publish changes from one environment to another (promote) – support all CMS features, nice to haves on product / category or others. – version in the true sense – rollback, view, preview – diff/compare is a nice to have

If anyone has any ideas I’d greatly appreciate it!

New iOS App for Magento 2 Store Management in works

Hi everyone!

I’m excited to announce that I’m working on M2 POS, a native iOS app designed specifically for Magento 2 store owners. While platforms like Shopify have had mobile management solutions for a while, we Magento users have been forced to use the default magento admin panel on our laptops.

Key features:

  • Real-time sales monitoring
  • Inventory and product management
  • Order tracking and customer management

Everything optimized for the mobile experience.

We believe in the Magento 2 community and want to create a tool that truly serves our needs. Your early support will help us make this app a reality! We’re aiming for a beta release in a couple of months, and we’d love your input along the way.

  1. Visit our website: https://m2-pos.app/
  2. Sign up for our newsletter to stay updated on the beta release date
  3. Consider pre-ordering to get 50% off the launch price

Questions? Comments? Suggestions for features you’d like to see? We’re all ears!

Importing a large catalog with many EAVs considerations

Background: we have an existing 2.4.6 site that’s working well with a few hundred products and a few EAV options(length, width, color, size). We sell specialized industrial products so I’m not worried about traffic spikes or many concurrent visitors. A supplier has recently offered us access to their entire product dataset, but it’s about 200,000 simple skus, with maybe 1500 attributes and 3000+ values. Many should be switched to configurable products by some of the EAVs for easier navigation.

Questions:

  • Is this something I can reasonable import without problems? I’m looking into import plugins and I read the adobe article about EAVs and mentions limiting them for performance but doesn’t really offer any guidance about what that means.

  • Will indexing be a problem? Other than maybe a weekly price update I expect the catalog to be fairly static.

  • Is there any difference between text and drop down EAVs? Am I better off with one dropdown with hundreds of options like box of 10, box of 20 or one dropdown with words like box plus a text box for 10 or 20?

  • Are there any good strategies/plugins/software for doing simple to configurable, besides manually?

Appreciate any insight anyone can offer! Also if anyone has any good resources about largish catalogs I’d welcome those too. Most I’ve found have been super-unspecific seo style blog posts. I realize there are a lot of variables like traffic and server specs but I’m trying to figure out if this is doable.

Does an extension exist for putting magento into holiday/vacation mode?

We’ve not taken a holiday for 10 years and it’s getting to the point where we need a 10 day complete break without worrying about orders etc. I know I will still be able to reply to customer email queries whilst away but I’m trying to find an extension where we can basically put the site into a “holiday” mode i.e

  1. Putting up a very visible banner stating we are away with a return date
  2. Disable add to basket buttons
  3. If we decide to not disable add to basket then on each product put up a notifcation of orders will ship on xx date when we are back

In the past going on holiday wasn’t an issue because we had staff to cover but because it’s just my wife and I now (various staff went off to have babies, so we streamlined and automated (during covid) a lot so we didn’t need to replace) but we really need to take a break now.

Breeze theme question

Hi, I’m new in this subreddit and after reading a lot of comments there are two themes that are bring up a lot hyva and breeze.

In the company that I work we been always fighting to make Magento faster but we always had to make luma compatible changes, we now have a opportunity to break that and after looking the docs of Breeze I see a lot of work involved to make the custom plugins work.

Have anyone has been down this road? Is this a possible way to go or the cost will outweigh the benefits of change of theme?

We also thought of pwa but that is another post for another time!

Thanks in advance!
