Does magento 2.4 not have option for different billing and shipping address? Yes, it does show “billing address” and “shipping address”, but on checkout its just one, and it sets both billing and shipping the same.

Or am I missing some setting?

For registered users under accounts on front end, it does show billing address and shipping address, but upon checkout, there is just one, and this one address is both billing and shipping as far as info go to documents

Let’s Collaborate: Seeking a Magento Store for a Unique AI Project!

Hello!

I am on the lookout for Magento store owners who are keen on harnessing the power of AI to address some distinct challenges in their business.

The idea is this: I want to create a bespoke AI solution or automation specifically designed for the unique requirements of your store. Whether it’s creating an AI shopping assistant for your store or any other AI-powered tool that solves a particular problem you’re facing, I’m all in. Your involvement will be vital in shaping this endeavor! I’ve created ChatGPT plugins, GPTs, and AI chatbots that personalize product recommendations to shoppers.Here’s what I’m looking for in a collaboration partner:

  1. An operational Magento store with at least a year in business and active sales.
  2. Availability for a weekly one-hour call to discuss progress and refine the AI solution.
  3. having a brick and mortar store to explore the possibility of voice assistants is a plus, but definitely not needed

Regarding the financial aspect, here’s my offer: I will take on all costs for the first month after we’ve developed a functional solution, so you have a period to evaluate the solution better.This project is rooted in the spirit of partnership and shared benefits. Once the first month is over, if you see value in the solution and wish to continue, we can talk about a cost arrangement that’s equitable and manageable for your business needs.

I’m embarking on this project because I deeply believe in the power of collaborating within our community and the transformative role AI can play in enhancing our businesses. If this resonates with you and you’re interested, please feel free to send me a direct message.

Thank you!

So many dev folk hate magneto- what’s actually better?

I’m a business owner. We have a magento site. It’s a very complicated site with a lot of customization including “2-sided” marketplace functionality. We’ve spent a ton. Whenever we speak with someone outside our org, they say magento is old and far from the best. So- ok, what’s a truly robust alternative. We first tried Shopify and couldn’t have done we what did as quickly etc, so Shopify’s out. Help pls. Thx!

Should the GraphQL API endpoint be publicly accessible? How do you protect it?

Obviously if the FE is making GraphQL requests to Magento that has to be available to the client.

That said, I wonder if there are techniques or strategies or best practices around protecting the GraphQL API endpoint in Magento from abuse.

One option could be introducing a middleware layer that reduces the potential exposure / scope of the API exposed, or of course a customization within Magento itself to limit the GraphQL resources exposed.

Anyway, thanks for any thoughts / expertise!

Magento 2 – Category Products index taking 10mins

Hi,

I am on 2.4.6 and baffled with a certain behaviour of this indexer.

After uploading a batch of 1000 new products into the store, I was terrified to notice the Category Products index process jumping from 4 seconds to 10 minutes.

To troubleshoot, I split the file into smaller batches based on category. So 1 upload may have had 100 products and another file may only have 1.

I was able to determine that even 1 product can trigger a jump of as much as 35seconds, i.e. going from 4seconds to reindex this indexer to 40. the worst batch took reindexing to 4mins 30secs.

Deleting the respective products immediately after takes the indexer time back down to 4secs.

I have looked at the custom attributes of these products and I cannot see a pattern that is any different to the products that do not impact the indexer negatively. Attributes are shared between these sets of products and they may or may have Show In Listing turned on, it makes no difference.

Anyone has experienced anything similar?

thanks

What LiveChat sofftware do you use? We’re considering leaving LiveChatInc

Long story shot, their software is good but it can’t quite be configured how we need it. It’s also getting expensive, with them going through their second large price increase in 12 months.

The problem is with whatever replacement we go with, we need it to show customer basket contents in realtime. LC offers this feature, I can’t find any others that do that though.

Any suggestions?

Magento sucks

I bet this was said many times before, here’s my take : I’ve had the misfortune of working with magento for the past 5 years, starting with 2.3, (I only worked with community edition) and it’s been hell. The developer experience is the worst, good luck debuging issues, improving performance with a large catalog, changing functionality for business needs. Etc etc. As a developer I encourage you not to work with magento, As a business owner literally use anything else. Fortunately i learned other things so i could find another job or i would’ve been miserable.

Moving to Hyva theme becuse website is slow. Immediately, in test environment, get a 99% LightHouse score. Adobe really should make Hyva the default Magento theme.

Moving to Hyva theme becuse website is slow. Immediately, in test environment, get a 99% LightHouse score. Adobe really should make Hyva the default Magento theme. Just buy out Hyva, and bam, make it the default theme. I think that would do away with so many of Magento’s issues.

So far, in my test environment on adobe cloud, I’ve implemented Hyva Theme / Hyva, and Hyva Checkout. And they’re both fantastic. I have to do some customization to the child theme for website particulars, like branding and such. But already, it’s a night & day difference. Wow.

Do you guys have any input on pros and cons of Hyva? I haven’t ran into any cons yet. Just had to read documentation and hit their slack channel.
