On one of our staging instances we had the problem, that the SEO urls didn’t get generated. Long story short: The problem was, that the queue worker didn’t work. Why? Because from shopware 6.4 to 6.5 the default queue was renamed from „default“ to „async“ and from 6.5 we need to set the queue name […]
A colleague wrote a plugin and the customer said, the translation doesn’t work. Our plugin loads more data via a form and AJAX. The problem: Always queries base url The problem is, that our JS plugin always queries the base url https://example.com instead of https://example.com/en so Shopware didn’t had any chance to find the correct […]
TIL (Today I learned) that on Vue.js if you give a DOM element/vue component it is only saved on the $parent.$refs. I’m writing this down, because coming from Magento 1, my assumption was, that $refs is some kind of a library or singleton, so I can find ALLE components in it – this is not […]

Shopware writes a ton of log messages. That is great if you’re looking for something, as you can be quite sure that it’s in there – somewhere. But getting an overview and finding the right error message in 100 lines of log per request can be tricky, so highlighting helps. Today I configured Ideolog to […]
We are currently implementing a payment plugin, and one of the things we want to have is a button to test the configuration. So we need to make an AJAX call to the PHP „backend“, which is all API driven in Shopware 6. Shopware is offering a nice way to do this: The ApiService implemented […]
Unlike technology conferences, where people gather to watch panels and talks, the Unconference is an open space where participants bring and decide the topics for discussion. The informal aspect of the event and the familiarity of the WEUC community provide a special space for sharing experiences and impressions, far beyond the everyday discussions about code and efficiency – even for a newcomer like me.
Today we discovered, that the typo and font sizes we configure in our theme aren’t displayed in the frontend. What we did: TL;DR Solution is below. But if we attach C to a sales channel, all the configuration isn’t used in the frontend. Our frontend developer Carl discovered, that the necessary scss code to apply […]
I’m a Magento developer and therefore I save entities. I’m used to it and using a class to set all properties on it is a great way to interact with an entity. Shopware doesn’t. To create a new entity you call create on a repository and pass an array to it. Like this example from […]
