Magento Hosting News

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. 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.

Lately, I have seen a decline in the business of custom e-commerce using Magento as a tech. People are either choosing Shopify or a custom solution say microservice-based architecture and building it in MERN or Springboot.

How does this look like from your side folks?

We are looking to update our Magento version. It is currently version 2.4.3-p2 and we’d like to be on 2.4.6. Our dev has estimated that it would take about 50 hours to complete this process. Does this seem like an accurate estimate to complete the job? We just wanted an outside perspective on this and to see what others have experienced in timeframes for an update like this before we give him the green light to do so.

Hello,

I just started using Magento and I’m trying to get rid of TinyMCE, it’s not helping at all. When I try using ALT + 0149(or any other code) it prompts the tinymce pop-up with Shortcuts and Plugins which I do not want. I just want to add the bullet points, which for some reason disappears on the front end if I use the bullet points in the editor. My colleague is able to add the bullet points using ALT + 0149 and I’m not. We’re both dumbfounded trying to fix this. Help.

Hello,

I’m starting my journey with Magento 2, have everythins setup and running on my localhost.

I want to achieve a task of changin the product availabilty and create a “Pre Order” simple procedure.

Already created a new property in the product to set a date.

Then, created a class that handles the logic and determine if the date is after current date, shows PRE-ORDER in the front end. Otherwhise it shows the normal availability of the product.

So far i think i’ve made it, but i cant show it in class=”product-info-stock-sku” div,

The task is simple, help me to fix this and walk me trough the process so i can learn.

If you are good at Magento and explaining, we can make an arrangement for more lessons to teach me or help me to solve problems because i’m in the learning process and need a mentor in this journey.

My budget is $25 for the task and if it’s complete we can discuss more tasks like this. I can provide my code if it’s faster or you can do the module from scratch, as far as i can tell , wont take more than an hour to someone that is experienced.

Thanks in advance.

Does anybody know if there is an alternative to the Google Maps API alternative, I would have liked to use Mapbox as it has a lot of customization options. As my developer knowledge is limited, I first would like to hear for someone if it has been done before.

Anybody about to give any advice about terminating authentication outside of normal magneto? I’d like to tie a few different systems together and handle authentication in a way that always me to make sure a customer is actually logged into “the system” without having to do something super hacky with cookies or something.

In the past I’ve generated bearer tokens with magneto and used those with external systems and then exchanged them for a “normal” login cookie for Magento FE, but it always felt a bit hacky.

Itd be nice to have a nice clean well designed way to handle this.

Thanks for any recs!!

What is Magento like for shop owners once a developer has properly set it up? The back-end looks fairly straightforward as far as adding products, managing orders, etc.

I want to use reOrderItems mutation. But the issue is that when i re order a specific product magento throws error that “The order number doesn’t belongs to the current customer”. even though the order is of the same customer and also the customer is authenticated by jwt. What can be the possible issue?

Hi! I’ve been out of the Magento development game for a while (see my previous post history here :)) but am interesting in learning a bit about the current landscape of packages / frameworks / libraries out there for doing headless integrations / implementations with Magento. In the area I work the chance of me doing a “traditional” Magento project (e.g. where Magento owns the “glass” e.g. html delivery) has passed, everything I’m doing is “headless.”

I’m specifically interested in any packages or libraries (paid, OS, whatever) where I might be able to pick and choose “components” and use them in some degree of isolation, vs a full “application.” Currently I’m thinking about Magento for a larger project where company X (not to be confused with X the company :)) has a homegrown CMS optimized for quickly delivering static HTML. They won’t change this, but are interested in adding some limited commerce functionality. They have a very small catalog so no listing pages / no search / no filtering / etc, just a number of bespoke PDPs basically, and a mini cart, and checkout, and account management / history pages, etc.

In other words, to an outside observer it might be a “just build it yourself with simple JS or whatever”, but I know enough to know that there is a lot of complexity that comes up and I would prefer not to reinvent the wheel.

With Shopify there are things like Hydrogen which can be used as standalone components (e.g. I just want the product listing component and it’s children, and just the mini cart, and i’ll only use them on those pages).

Lots of words, hopefully the spirit of my question is clear-ish. Looking for a general “vibe” of the landscape or any specific recommendations if you didn’t want to write everything from scratch but also didn’t want a full commerce “app” and had to live in a system controlled by another CMS.

Thank you!!!
