Guys hi,

We have small legacy magento 1.9 store which we are in process migrating to another system.

Recently forms (contact us, checkout) checkout stopped working with no changes at all.

When submit button is clicked nothing is happening at all. Admin log in form works fine.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

This order notification module helps the admin to alert for new orders that arrive in the admin. Admin can choose the option for play sound or speech for order notification. This extension help admin to alert for a new order. The admin will also have the options in the backend to enable/disable the module, choose to play audio sound or speech with customer name and order id, and upload audio file what he/she wants to play for notification.

Hi all,

When it comes to the Punchout Catalog process flow in an eProcurement system, is there any data that “leaves” either the buyer’s or supplier’s platform? I.e., do the likes of Punchout2Go and Greenwing Technologies/SCS Cloud process either supplier or buyer data on their servers?

Thanks!

While experimenting with a cache crawler, I noticed that Magento is clearing the cache for items in the order. Is there a configuration to disable this feature?

Magento is an open-source ecommerce platform providing a flexible shopping cart option, and control over the features, design, content and functionality of the store. Magento is known to provide powerful marketing, search engine optimization, and catalog-management tools.

In this case study, I have shared a client’s success story about how a well-known custom Magento development company made some customizations in the existing website and upgraded it to a latest Magento version, which resulted in a 36% hike in sales.

About The Client:- The client is a wholesaler of custom designed and engraved crockeries. The business is physically located in Canada. The company has an existing Magento store, selling tons of crockeries and related items on an average. But due to lack of some enhanced functionalities and upgradation, the client was desperately searching for the optimal solution.

Finally, he reached a leading eCommerce development company who suggested to him a solution he was really looking for. So he decided to hire that custom eCommerce development company named Galaxy Weblinks Inc., to do this task for him.

Requirements –

The client was asking to keep all the data safe and secure while migrating the website along with the passwords and other details.

The data to be transferred between the two websites should be extra secured.

How Galaxy Weblinks Inc. Fulfilled It?

Galaxy Weblinks Inc. has a team of skilled eCommerce developers who utilized their expertise and started from configuration part, import and export data and customization of the store to give an enhanced experience.

By leveraging the advanced tools and Magento extensions, the team was able to migrate all the data into a new version successfully without losing any important information. Passwords, custom records, credentials and other sensitive data was also kept safe and was securely migrated from old version to new.

Categories, customers data, catalogues, product inventory, website navigation and important functionalities were turned into a new version and appearance for the users. It almost gave a new look and feel to the website, improving sales and traffic.

The Challenge

Galaxy Weblinks Inc., deeply focused on every requirement of the client and came up with the desired solution to migrate the old version of Magento to a newer one.

Migration of existing data and functionalities into an enhanced version of Magento required few expertise and skills.

• While migrating an online store from Magento 1 to Magento 2, one cannot take the current theme into consideration and need a fresh theme to move ahead.
• Needs regressive testing when moving your store from Magento 1 to Magento 2. There are some automation tools provided in Magento 2, which makes it easier for testing the newly upgraded store.
• Tough to transfer sales data & customer base.
• Having completely different database structures, SEO becomes quite complicated. Some most common issues encountered are -re-indexing, website traffic loss, sales loss, URL structure optimization, etc.

Improvements & Sales Growth-

After succeeding with the website upgradation and enhancement, the new Magento store picked up 36% increased sales and 52% website traffic in a few days.

Earlier the website was selling a upto 40–48% crockeries online and had a weaker customer base online, due to lack of functionality and website optimization.

Hello,

I’m having a real struggle with the concepts of layouts, I’ve done a few courses and read an absurd amount of blog posts, but still get stuck on some basics.

So for example I am trying to output CMS static blocks into the footer.

In app/design/frontend/MyCompany/MyTheme/Magento_Theme/layout/default.xml I have:

<referenceContainer name="footer" htmlClass="footer-content container"> <container name="footer.block.one.container" htmlTag="div" htmlClass="footer-block"> <block class="MagentoCmsBlockBlock" name="footer.block.one"> <arguments> <argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">footer_block_one</argument> </arguments> </block> </container> 

<!– more blocks –>

</referenceContainer>

Which does render the content from my CMS block ‘footer_block_one’, which is all well and good. But when I want to add more blocks in the same way, it ends up rendering them all out, and I cannot for the life of me find the .phtml file it is using.

I want to wrap each of the blocks within their own specific divs and have more control over the rendering out of the content, but it seems to simply just output it out as if by magic.

I have seen blog posts suggesting the following:

<?php echo $this->getLayout() ->createBlock('MagentoCmsBlockBlock') ->setBlockId('footer_block_one') ->toHtml(); ?> 

​

But it *feels* like the blocks should be passed through the layout. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

Many thanks

Problem with Magento 2.4.x for us is the high maintenance that is needed for every update due to the fact that we use custom theme and custom third-party modules, so if one of the modules hasn’t yet to offer an update before next Magento release, we are stuck with an unpatched installation.

My question is: Is OpenMage still viable for the future? We’re going to upgrade to PHP 8 and even database server will be continually updated, so we don’t want to get stuck with PHP 7.3 and old MySQL.

We have open-sourced an extension for M2 doing that.

May come handy if you need to send people to other websites for certain products (think about Amazon referral links, products that are available only with resellers or retail partners).

If there is an interest in that – I’ll share link in comments. Had experience of get banned by Reddit bots, so don’t post it immediately.

So if you are interested – upvote or comment here.

I find the standard Magento 2 Paypal express order review page very confusing for customers. It looks a lot like an order confirmation page and we lose a few customers from not selecting a delivery method and clicking place order.

Has anyone seen any good designs of this page that makes it obvious that the customer has to select a delivery method?

So on a particular cms page I want to change the color of links that are generated using WIDGETS like CATEGORY CATALOG LINK using the widget/link/link_inline.phtml template.

I access Inspector Tool only to find:

create-return .action.remove, .form.send.friend .action.remove, .minicart-items .product-item-name a, .product-item-info .product.name a:hover {

color: #0a2e50;

}

​

This changes every link in the header, footer but what if i just want to concentrate on the body of a particular CMS page using inline css. What am I looking for to change? I tried a, a:hover, .pages a.page, .pages a.page { and nothing is working.

I’m running on a VPS (15TB bandwidth / 24GB RAM / 6 CPU Cores) and so far I’m very impressed with how the shopping car is responding even with a random themeforest theme.

Last time I tried to switch to Magento it was 2.4.1 and I honestly couldn’t use the cart unless it was in production mode and fully cached.

My only complaints so far is that pagebuilder wraps my blocks in a div that don’t float. So I had to insert a row and then insert my html into that row for each block.

Also the changes to .htaccess in 2.4.2 were a little hard to get use to. I haven’t gotten url rewrites to work, but I think it’s because I installed magento in a subdirectory.

​

I’m pretty isolated in the dev world and this is such a hard subject, I thought I’d reach out and see if I could have a conversation here. I have to create this throwaway as my main account is known here as well as IRL.

​

I’m feeling a bit stuck in my career. I’m mid 30’s in a mid-sized US town. I’ve been a web dev for over 15 years. I’ve been at my current employer for almost 8 years, I came in with no magento experience and am now lead magento dev for a team of 3 other magento devs at a large multinational direct to customer and b2b biz using ece.

​

I am having another child and struggling a bit with bills and making ends meet. I’ve been getting alot of emails from recruiters on linked (just shotgun spam I guess) and the salaries they throw around are always better than mine by a bit). I get exactly 100k salary. I looked up entry level (97k) and median (115k) salary and found that I’m getting paid at the bottom end, basically getting entry level wage, despite 7 years experience and being lead dev. My last raise was 5% last spring, so after inflation a 1% reduction in pay.

​

I have no certs, I havn’t found time to get them because I’m extremely overworked at around 55-60 hours a week as well as trying to spend time with my family. plus the costs for certs are expensive and I have no room in my family budget.

​

I do really like the company I work for, they are great people, very accommodating, good benefits, the kind of people who would pickup your sick kid from school if need be. Also they make really positive products that my family is really proud of me for being apart of.

​

My question is this, do I take this salary information to my boss (who is known for refusing ultimatums) or do I just apply for another job and go somewhere else? Should I start perusing certs via work sponsored training, or outside or work training?

​

I know this is alot but I’m really just hoping to talk to someone about this because I’m so isolated and feeling pretty terrible about it all

Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction. Got magebapck installed on a site and have been asked to add a script that where it will only generate for UK only.

Im stuck!
