Enhancements

This section describes changes in this release that are not full-fledged features or bug fixes, but that add noticeable improvements to product performance or ease-of-use.

As part of the process of adding CyberSource support, we’ve made improvements to the Multishipping module to simplify integration process for other payment methods.

  • You can now use the app:config:status command to check whether configuration propagation is up-to-date. Fix submitted by Juan Alonso in pull request 12441.

  • The bin/magento maintenance:allow-ips command now has the --add flag, which appends a new IP address to the list of allowed IP addresses. Previously, when you added a new IP address, you had to copy the existing addresses. Fix submitted by Barry vd. Heuvel in pull request 13586.
  • The config:set command now has a lock-config option, and configuration values are always stored in app/etc/config.php instead of app/etc/env.php. Fix submitted by Andreas von Studnitz in pull request 13280.

  • Magento no longer throws an error when you re-save a product attribute with a new name. Fix submitted by Raul Mateos in pull request 11617. GitHub-6770

  • The getAttributeText($attributeCode) method now returns string values as expected. Previously, this method returned an array of attribute values. Fix submitted by p-bystritsky in pull request 12003.

  • You can now delete rows in the the dynamicRows component. Fix submitted by Roman K. in pull request 921. GitHub-8830
  • You can now add a new product with custom attributes that has the same name and attributes as a previously deleted product. Previously, Magento did not let you add this new product because a request_path with the same value already existed in table url_rewrite from the previous product. Fix submitted by Nickolas Malyovanets in pull request 12167. GitHub-12110
  • The og:type meta tag content value has been corrected from <meta property="og:type" content="og:product" /> to <meta property="og:type" content="product" />. Fix submitted by Atish Goswami in pull request 12530.

  • You can now duplicate and save a product successfully. Previously, you could not successfully duplicate a product, and Magento displayed this message: Notice: Undefined offset: 0 in /home/software/public_html/vendor/magento/module-catalog/Model/Category/Link/SaveHandler.php on line 124. Fix submitted by p-bystritsky in pull request 983. GitHub-12259
  • The REST API now saves all product properties as expected. Previously, Magento did not save the price and weight, and these attributes were not returned in the result of the POST request. Fix submitted by Nickolas Malyovanets in pull request 1018. GitHub-6486
  • Duplicate email IDs no longer occur on the Magento default contact page when running Google Chrome { Version 63.0.3239.84 (Official Build) (64-bit) }. Fix submitted by Serhii in pull request 1036. GitHub-12712

  • Magento now loads type-dependent layout handles before more specific ID/SKU layout handles. Previously, when Magento updated a product page layout for a specific ID with catalog_product_view_id_<product_ID>.xml, some changes were overwritten by a less specific catalog_product_view_type_<product_type>.xml. Fix submitted by Andreas Schrammel in pull request 12807.
  • Unused temporary variables have been removed from Adminhtml/Category/Save.html. Fix submitted by Pierre Martin in pull request 13663.

  • In cases where imagebuilder makes multiple calls, it no longer re-uses attributes from the first call if attributes from a second call are empty.

  • updateCart.phtml now uses dynamic rather than hardcoded validators. Fix submitted by Gil Greenberg in pull request 13462.
  • An unused constructor dependency has been removed from the Product Link Save handler. Fix submitted by Ihor Sviziev in pull request 13436.
  • A database backup created by setup:backup --db and restored with setup:rollback -d now includes triggers as expected. Previously, the restored database did not include triggers, which meant that indexes could not work correctly. Fix submitted by Denis Ristic in pull request 11369. GitHub-9036

Fix submitted by Mohammad Haj-Salem in pull request 12650.
  • We’re resolved issues with product creation that occurred on installations of Magento Commerce with B2B installed and Update by Schedule indexer mode set.

Cart and checkout

  • Magento no longer adds addresses with saveInAddressBook set to 0 to the address book for new customers. Previously, if you placed an order as a guest and set the save_in_address_book setting for an address to 0, Magento still copied that address to the customer address book when registering as a new customer on the checkout success page. GitHub-7691
  • Magento no longer combines the Custom Checkout and Shipping steps when Magento loads the checkout page. Fix submitted by Roman K. in pull request 975.
  • You can now successfully change currency for an order before you complete the order. Previously, if you changed currency, when you proceeded with checkout by choosing a Bank Transfer Payment as Payment Method, Magento displayed, Your credit card will be charged for. Fix submitted by Roman K. in pull request 993. GitHub-12526
  • Magento no longer throws a JavaScript error on the cart from postcode validation when United States is deselected in the Allowed Countries Admin option (Admin > Stores > Configuration > General > Default Country). Fix submitted by codekipple in pull request 13051.
  • Street format spacing when multiple streets are present is now consistent across Shipping and Review & Payments checkout steps. Fix submitted by nfourteen in pull request 13082.

Configurable products

  • You can now use custom price symbols when assigning prices to configurable prices. Previously, Magento did not properly display prices for configurable products when you used a custom price symbol when assigning prices. Fix submitted by pradeep-wagento in pull request 13025. GitHub-12430
  • Magento now reorders configurable attribute options as expected on the product page. Fix submitted by wardcapp in pull request 12963. GitHub-7441
  • Magento now displays elements of the Catalog > Products > Create Configurations page correctly. Previously, the currency symbol overlapped with the attribute option’s price during creation of a configurable product. Fix submitted by Vasilina in pull request.
  • If you enter an invalid value for an SKU during the creation of the configurable product, Magento now displays a warning and does not let you save the product. Previously, you were not warned about invalid SKU values, and when you clicked Save, all the product information you entered was lost. Fix submitted by Zamaroka in pull request 12737. GitHub-11953
  • Magento now correctly runs a partial attribute (EAV) reindex of configurable products whose child products’ visibility is set to Not Visible Individually. Fix submitted by Roman K. in pull request 1023. GitHub-12667

  • The product price indexer (catalog_product_price reindex) no longer stalls during reindexing.
  • Product records inside the catalog_product_super_link table are no longer updated needlessly when you save a configurable product. Previously, saving configurable product erased and then reinserted records in the catalog_product_super_link table even when child products were not changed. This practice quickly resulted in an unnecessarily large catalog_product_super_link table, especially in multi-website installations.

Customer accounts

  • Magento now trims trailing and leading spaces when saving the name of a new contact. Fix submitted by wardcapp in pull request 12964. GitHub-10415
  • We fixed the invalid parameter configuration that was provided for the $block argument of Magento\\Ui\\Component\\HtmlContent. Fix submitted by Tomasz Gregorczyk in pull request 12964.

  • You can now import customer addresses from websites with country restrictions.
  • Magento no longer displays the Too many password reset requests error when the max wait time between password resets setting has been disabled. Previously, when you attempted to reset a customer’s password through the Admin, Magento threw an error even when you disabled the max wait time between password resets setting in the store configuration settings. Fix submitted by Cole Hafner in pull request. GitHub-11409
  • Magento no longer throws an exception when you try to open your account address book immediately after creating a customer. Fix submitted by Chris Pook in pull request 12220. GitHub-12180
  • The isConfirmationRequired method in the AccountManagement class is now public, which makes it available for plugins. (For example, you can now develop custom business logic to decide if confirmation is required (yes/no) for certain customers.) Fix submitted by Derrick Heesbeen in pull request 11878.
  • When configuring a customer account, you can now leave the prefix or suffix fields as optional. Previously, if you did not select an option for these fields, Magento defaulted to selecting the first option in the list. Fix submitted by Andreas von Studnitz in pull request 11462. GitHub-7241
  • The storefront Back to Sign in button now works as expected. Previously, when you clicked that button, Magento simply reloaded the current page. Fix submitted by StasKozar in pull request 12759. GitHub-12715
  • The window.checkout.customerLoginUrl now contains a URL that includes the referer in base64 encoding (for example, https://myShop.com/customer/account/login/referer/aHR0cHM6Ly9teXNob3AuY29tL2NoZWNrb3V0). Previously, the login URL did not include a referer (for example, https://myShop.com/customer/account/login). Fix submitted by Tommy Quissens in pull request 12630. GitHub-12627
  • When you are on the cart page and click a product’s Edit link, the product page now correctly displays the product quantity currently in the cart. Fix submitted by Arnoud Beekman in pull request 13310.

Dashboard

  • The top destinations configuration field is now configurable on a store level. Previously, it was configurable on the global level only. Fix submitted by Andreas von Studnitz in pull request 13052.
  • When multiple validation errors occur while saving a customer address, Magento now shows unique messages in the adminhtml customer edit page. Fix submitted by adrian-martinez-interactiv4 in pull request 12922.
  • The scroll bar on the Admin store switcher is now scrollable on machines running OSX. Fix submitted by Juan Alonso in pull request 12931.

Directory

  • The \Magento\Directory\Model\PriceCurrency::format() method no longer fails if you do not configure a conversion rate from the base to the specified currency. Previously, if you did not specify this conversion rate, Magento rendered the price (amount) in the base currency, not the specified currency. Fix submitted by Nickolas Malyovanets in pull request 1022. GitHub-6965
  • Magento now requires that customers select State/Province when shipping orders to India, and the checkout page now provides a drop-down field with appropriate values. Fix submitted by p-bystritsky in pull request. GitHub-12378

EAV attributes

  • Creating new configuration attributes no longer causes naming collisions in the JavaScript UI registry. Previously, when you created a new default attribute and then subsequently created a new product, JavaScript errors occurred. Fix submitted by Volodymyr Zaets in pull request 12945. GitHub-12555

  • Magento now saves multiselect attributes for a product that has a related product using another attribute set. Previously, multiselect attribute values were not saved for a product in the Admin panel when it had a related product that used another attribute set. Fix submitted by awarche in pull request 12767.
  • The product attribute repository save method no longer resets the source model to null when you create a new product attribute through code. Fix submitted by Nickolas Malyovanets in pull request 1012. GitHub-10814
  • Magento now uses the correct entity_model in table eav_entity_type for invoices (Magento\Sales\Model\ResourceModel\Order\Invoice). Previously, in table eav_entity_type for entity_type_code = "invoice" the entity_model was Magento\Sales\Model\ResourceModel\Order. Fix submitted by Nickolas Malyovanets in pull request 980. GitHub-10123
  • When a validation message is returned, Magento no longer displays the attribute code ($attrCode), but instead returns the label ($label). This change makes it easier to translate messages. Fix submitted by Hewerson Freitas in pull request 12120.
  • You can now perform a mass update on products that have more than 60 attributes.
  • Magento\Eav\Model\Config::getAttribute now stops the Profiler before it returns Profiler run time. Previously, Magento\Eav\Model\Config::getAttribute did not stop the Profiler from returning early, and consequently reported incorrect run time. Fix submitted by Nick Anstee in pull request 12810.
  • The beforeSave method encodes an attribute value only when it has not yet been encoded. Previously, the JSON-encoded attribute value was loaded correctly, but when you saved a product multiple times, the attribute value was also encoded multiple times. Consequently, Magento did save the product, and displayed this error, Unable to unserialize value. Fix submitted by Tibor Kotosz in pull request 13551.
  • The deprecated each() function has been removed from the code. Fix submitted by Ihor Sviziev in pull request.

Email

  • Order confirmation emails from the Admin in multistore environments no longer default to the primary store, but instead are sent from the store that the customer used. Fix submitted by Roman K. in pull request. GitHub-11740
  • Magento no longer sends misleading feedback when sending tracking information email. Previously, instead of sending a notice that a shipment was underway, this response was sent, You sent the shipment. Fix submitted by Nickolas Malyovanets in pull request 1245. GitHub-5697

Frameworks

  • You can now switch to default mode from production mode. Previously, if you tried to switch back to default mode, Magento displayed this error, Cannot switch into given mode 'default'. Fix submitted by Etty in pull request 12752. GitHub-4292
  • vendor/magento/framework/composer.json now declares a dependency on magento/zendframework1. Previously, packages depending on magento/framework packages failed to execute. Fix submitted by Ihor Sviziev in pull request 12990. GitHub-12967
  • The filePutContents('file.txt') now contains content as expected. Previously, Magento threw this error, The specified "file.text" file could not be written*. Fix submitted by Nickolas Malyovanets in pull request 962. GitHub-7467
  • You can now subscribe to events that contain a number in their name. Fix submitted by Mobecls in pull request 12758. GitHub-5035
  • PhpDoc now shows correct parameter types. Previously, PhpDoc showed only a type of string, although array was also a valid parameter type. Fix submitted by Freek Vandeursen in pull request 12826.
  • Content no longer jumps when pages are reloaded on the Admin because notices-wrapper now has a min-height setting. Fix submitted by Anna Völkl in pull request 12985.
  • We’ve corrected a typo in the Magento\Ui\Controller\Adminhtml\Index\Render action. Fix submitted by Nick in pull request 12951.
  • X-Magento-Vary and PHPSESSID now have the same expiration time. Previously, the X-Magento-Vary cookie had an expiration of session, which meant it was not considered expired until the browser was closed. In contrast, the PHPSESSID cookie had a finite expiration time (not session). At times, this resulted in Magento caching the wrong page for the logged-in user.
  • \Magento\Config\Model\Config\Structure\Reader::processingDocument now throws a more helpful validation exception. Fix submitted by Patrick McLain in pull request 12859.
  • Creating an observer that uses ObserverInterface no longer triggers a patch-level dependency on magento/framework. Fix submitted by Kristof in pull request 13759.
  • RewriteBase directive has been added to the .htaccess file in pub/static to support the potential installation of Magento code under a directory inside the web root. Fix submitted by Cristiano Casciotti in pull request 13678.
  • The doc block of the walk method in a collection now correctly describes that the method accepts a string or array. Fix submitted by ByteCreation in pull request 13373.
  • The report processor now returns an HTTP 500 status code (which better communicates the need for user action) instead of a 503 status code. Fix submitted by Andrew Howden in pull request 11513. GitHub-11512

Fix submitted by Roman K. in pull request 12241. GitHub-10128
  • CAPTCHA labels now reflect both the symbols and letters associated with the CAPTCHA image. Previously, the text labels referred to the CAPTCHA image referred to letters only, despite there being numbers in the CAPTCHA images, too.

Fix submitted by Kristof in pull request 12477.

Previously after import, the alt text field on the Admin was empty, even though the label was imported and was visible on the product list page as alt attribute, and the Product Detail page missed the alt attribute on image fields.

Infrastructure

  • Zoom now works as expected when using dropdown menus.

Fix submitted by Mayank Zalavadia in pull request 13084. GitHub-5129
  • RequireJS loading issues that occur when ad blockers are active have been resolved. Previously, uBlock (or any ad blocker) forbade the trackingCode.js file from loading, which prompted RequireJS to throw an exception.

  • continue() has been removed from templates. Fix submitted by Ihor Sviziev in pull request 13076.
  • The comment that marks the \Magento\Checkout\Model\Cart class as deprecated now includes a pointer to an alternative class.

Orders

  • Magento now shows all products as expected in the Recently Ordered list when a customer places an order that contains products from multiple stores. Previously, in installations with two storefronts, if a customer added products from both stores to the same shopping cart, and placed a single order, the recently ordered product list would not show all ordered products.
  • The getDefaultStoreLocale() method has been added to allow for the fetching of scoped values. Use this method in getCreatedAtFormatted() to ensure that Magento translates the created_at order date in emails for the locale being used in that store view. Fix submitted by Jeroen in pull request 11067.
  • You can now successfully open the Order edit page for orders that contain an address with extension attributes. Previously, when you tried to open this page, the page load failed with this error, Recoverable Error: Object of class Magento\Sales\Api\Data\OrderAddressExtension could not be converted to string in .../module-sales/Model/AdminOrder/Create.php on line 503.

  • Credit memos can have the state open (\Magento\Sales\Model\Order\Creditmemo::STATE_OPEN). As a result, you can create a credit memo with an ID that still has to be refunded, and existing credit memos should be refundable if their state is open. Fix submitted by Anton Evers in pull request 11550.
  • The Magento\Sales\Service\V1\OrderCreateTest test now has the correct shipping method fixture. Previously, this test contained an incorrect shipping method fixture, which produced an error whenever an order’s shipping method was treated an object. Fix submitted by andrew-garside-temando in pull request 12227.
  • When you create a credit memo comment with POST /V1/creditmemo/:id/comments, Magento now sends credit memo update emails as expected. Previously, Magento did not send this email, and no other transaction emails were sent to the customer.

Previously, when a text block spanned more than one page, Magento threw a Zend_Pdf_Exception error, and displayed this error: Font has not been set. Fix submitted by Serhii in pull request 1016. GitHub-11743
  • Magento no longer exports extra records when you export invoices for multiple orders. Fix submitted by Sanjay Patel in pull request 13208. GitHub-12714

Previously, when you canceled an order, some of these methods did not accurately calculate the amount of restored stock. Fix submitted by Danny Verkade in pull request 12668. GitHub-9969
  • Join extension attributes are now added as expected to order results when the order is created using REST. Fix submitted by Nickolas Malyovanets in pull request 1168.

  • Invoices now display the exact quantity of a product ordered, even if it is a fractional unit (for example, 6.5). Previously, when Magento tried to invoice an order that had products with quantities that required decimals, it rounded down the quantity to the nearest whole number in the invoice. Fix submitted by Nickolas Malyovanets in pull request 11997. GitHub-11941

Payment methods

  • The multishipping checkout flow now supports the CyberSource payment method. This payment method is supported on Magento Commerce only. However, as part of the process of adding CyberSource support, we’ve made improvements to the Multishipping module to simplify integration process for other payment methods.

Users of the CyberSource payment method should note that that CyberSource uses the Magento Vault module only to store and retrieve tokens. Stored CyberSource tokens won’t be displayed on the checkout page or customer account.

  • Third-party developers can now customize payment errors messages for payment integrations based on the Magento Payment Provider Gateway.

  • Magento now correctly adds checkout agreements data to requests and validates payment information when you place an order using PayPal Express. Previously, you could check this box, but Magento did not parse the agreements data or pass it to the set-payment-information API. This failure in turn triggered the CheckoutAgreements validation plugin, which failed to validate. Fix submitted by Ričards Zālītis in pull request 12401.
  • Magento no longer archives active orders that are placed using PayPal Express Checkout. Previously, if you placed an order using PayPal Express Checkout, Magento would place the order as expected but also add it to the list of archived orders.
  • Magento now correctly displays transparent PNG watermarks on JPEG images.

Quote

  • Magento now handles errors that occur during sitemap generation in a less intrusive way. If Magento throws an exception when generating a sitemap, it now sends the errors through email as configured in the sitemap configuration XML.

GitHub-10502

Swagger

  • The code formatting in the Swagger block and template has been updated. Fix submitted by Jeroen in pull request 13485.

Swatches

  • You can now use REST to import visual swatch attribute options. Previously, you could not add swatch options using service contracts unless a swatch option already existed for the attribute. Fix submitted by gonzalopelon in pull request 12044. GitHub-9410, GitHub-10707, GitHub-10737, GitHub-11032
  • Visual swatches that have a color assigned now show that color in the swatch box. Previously, Magento did not display any color in the color swatch box. Fix submitted by Chris Pook in pull request 13101. GitHub-11828
  • The error message displayed when you do not supply enough information during swatch creation has been edited for clarity and grammatical accuracy. Fix submitted by Nickolas Malyovanets in pull request 1117. GitHub-5550

TargetRule

  • You can now successfully save a Related Product rule.

Tax

  • The default selector on the Admin’s tax rule edit page now selects only the correct container (tax rate) following the Tax Rate multiselect. Previously, the default selector selected three elements, which resulted in inaccurate results. Fix submitted by Pieter Hoste in pull request 13643. GitHub-12791
  • We’ve removed the redundant default discount tax calculation (tax/calculation/discount_tax) from Magento/Tax/etc/config.xml. Fix submitted by Vincent Marmiesse in pull request 13449.
  • The Not yet calculated text string immediately adjacent to the string Tax on the checkout page is now translated as expected. Fix submitted by Roman K. in pull request 1147. GitHub-7849
  • Magento no longer displays incorrect tax amounts for orders when using a non-default tax configuration. Fix submitted by Pieter Cappelle in pull request 12639. GitHub-10347

Testing

  • We’ve added MagentoStyle to console input and output in Travis tests.
  • We’ve re-implemented tests using Jasmine as part of the process of removing the legacy JavaScript test framework and completely removing JSTestDriver support. Fix submitted by Carlos Lizaga in pull request. GitHub-12342
  • functional.suite.dist.yml now handles custom backend names. Previously, the value for the backend_name configuration was hardcoded. Fix submitted by scribam in pull request 12884.
  • We’ve added a missing preference for ObjectManager\ConfigInterface in integration tests. Fix submitted by Fabian Schmengler in pull request 12845. GitHub-12844
  • The inline documentation of the static test for XSS vulnerabilities now reflects that @escapeNotVerified is disallowed in Magento versions equal or greater than 2.2. Fix submitted by Matthias Zeis in pull request 12639.

Themes

  • Magento no longer caches warning messages as often as a customer clicks the Update Shopping Cart button while the shopping cart page loads. Previously, Magento cached a warning message each time a customer clicked this button while the page loaded in FireFox or Chrome, and this action resulted in multiple warning messages appearing on the top of the shopping cart page.
  • If a customer is logged in while Magento loads, then the welcome message displays the customer’s full name. Fix submitted by Oleh Kravets in pull request 12738. GitHub-12719
  • Protected method getHtml now checks each child for an existing class and then appends the $outermostClass if true. Previously, when creating a dependency injection for the Magento\Theme\Block\Html\Topmenu class, you could not change class names on children in a beforeGetHtml method because getHtml declares setClass() on all child items. Fix submitted by jonshipman in pull request 12862.
  • Customers can now successfully close full-screen zoomed product images displayed on an iPhone 4s, 5s, 6, or 6s with the Safari browser. Previously, if a customer chose full screen zoom for any product image, he could not close the full screen zoom.

Translations and locale

  • Inline translations and custom translators now work for Knockout templates. Fix submitted by Dmitry Fedyuk in pull request 12953. GitHub-2156
  • Magento now uses current locale (as defined in Stores > Configuration > Advanced Reporting) when translating the time zone label. Previously, Magento used operating system settings instead of current locale. Fix submitted by adrian-martinez-interactiv4 in pull request 13408.
  • The module responsible for generating the js-translations.json file now contains a routine that translates strings in tags such as <translate args="This won't be translated". Fix submitted by Matti Vapa in pull request 13528. GitHub-12081

User interface

  • You can now configure a form field with validation range words. As a result, the category name is validated, and the category is created (or displays the correct error message, if validation fails). Previously, Magento displayed an error message in the console. Fix submitted by Robin Huy in pull request 12739.
  • The Save Block button on the Add New Block page no longer ignores clicks if the content editor is empty. Fix submitted by Roman K. in pull request 1032. GitHub-8114
  • Magento now disables the promo code input box after a user applies a promo code. Fix submitted by Chirag P in pull request 13030.
  • Magento now displays video and images as expected when you select a video or click to view a full-screen image for a configurable product. Fix submitted by Chumak Roman in pull request 12469. GitHub-12268
  • The PHP notice that Magento displays when an invalid ui_component configuration is used has been improved. Fix submitted by Vova Yatsyuk in pull request 12239.
  • Magento has added verification for previously set filters in Magento/Ui/Component/Filters, which has eliminated duplication of filters in collection where conditions.
  • Inconsistency in the animation of the Admin spinner progress indicator has been corrected. Fix submitted by Neill Robson in pull request 13700.

URL rewrites

  • When using a store code in a URL, Magento now retrieves the value of Store_Code from the store if the store code value is empty. Previously, under these circumstances, Magento threw an error. Fix submitted by Oscar Recio in pull request 12529. GitHub-8615

Web API framework

  • You can now use the REST API to make requests that include a slash (/) in an SKU. Fix submitted by Roman K. in pull request 949. GitHub-8615

Wish list

  • Magento now correctly displays a product’s special price when you add it to a wish list. Previously, if you added a product with a special price to the wish list, Magento displayed the product with its regular price.
  • You can now remove an item description from a wish list. Fix submitted by p-bystritsky in pull request 981. GitHub-12582
