Release notes Shopware 6.6.9.0 ​

Abstract ​

This minor release contains some interesting features as well as technical improvements like Accessibility improvements and OpenTelemetry enhancements.

System requirements ​

  • tested on PHP 8.2 and 8.3
  • tested on MySQL 8 and MariaDB 10.11

Improvements ​

Improve category and product indexing for many entities at once ​

Before the CategoryIndexer, every child of the to-be-updated categories was put into one indexing message. This single message could stay within the message size limit if there are fewer categories. The children and parents are now chunked and put into new messages.

Fill the last_usage_at column in the integration table during the authentication process between the App/Service and the Shop. ​

The last_usage_at date is now filled when an integration is used.

Public metrics configuration interfaces ​

Changed parts of the future public interface (metrics emitting view and metrics transport view) from @internal to @experimental

Add global exports to Shopware object ​

Added all Vue exports to Shopware.Vue

Hot Reload: Support for Multiple Themes (SCSS Variables) ​

Improved support for multiple themes by skipping unselected themes during Hot Reload

Custom Field Integration in Layouts ​

Merchants can now use custom field data in layouts. Updates to custom fields automatically reflect across all layouts, reducing manual updates. This includes:

  • Selecting entities in data mapping.
  • Using custom field data as variables in text fields and entire blocks.

Elasticsearch Search Explanation ​

Added the ability to view search explanations in the browser's network tab when using the preview search API, integrated with the Preview search UI.

Exclude products from sitemap ​

Added the option to exclude hidden products from the sitemap.

Accessibility improvements ​

A bypass mechanism was implemented to enhance site navigation by providing ARIA landmarks, internal skip links, and headlines for site areas. Additionally, accessible names for <iframe> elements were added, and methods such as collapsible sections and labeled landmarks were recommended to improve usability for screen reader and keyboard-only users.
