Magento Open Source 2.2.6 Release Notes

Patch code and release notes were published on September 18, 2018 and last revised October 29, 2018.

We are pleased to present Magento Open Source 2.2.6. This release includes 25 critical enhancements to product security, over 150 core code fixes and enhancements, and over 350 community-submitted pull requests.

Although this release includes these security enhancements, no confirmed attacks related to these issues have occurred to date. However, certain vulnerabilities can potentially be exploited to access customer information or take over administrator sessions, so we recommend that you upgrade your Magento software to the latest version as soon as possible.

See Magento Security Center for a comprehensive discussion of these issues. All exploitable security issues fixed in this release (2.2.6) have been ported to 2.1.15, 1.14.3.10, and 1.9.3.10, as appropriate.

Highlights

In addition to 25 critical security fixes, look for the following highlights in this release:

Core code highlights

This release includes significant performance improvements to the core Magento code:

Substantial improvements to performance

Performance-tuning enhancements focus on catalog indexing and include:

Category product indexer logic has been optimized, and re-indexing time has decreased up to 98%, from 40 minutes to one minute for 100,000 categories. Previously, when your store contained many categories (100,0000), Magento could take up to 40 minutes to re-index product catalogs.

The catalog:images:resize command execution time has been reduced by up to 90% in the release. However, this improvement necessitates these additional steps after upgrading your Magento instance to 2.2.6:
- Remove pub/media/catalog/product/cache . (Removing this folder frees up space.)
- Run bin/magento catalog:images:resize to generate a new image cache. (This step is necessary because we’ve changed the path to cached images and must remove the previously cached images.)

The catalog rule re-indexing operation has been optimized, and the average re-indexing time (which depends on rule conditions) has improved by more than 80%. Previously, a full catalog rule re-index operation on a medium B2C store took more than 20 minutes.

The catalog price indexer is now scoped and multithreaded, which improves the performance of layered navigation, search, and indexing actions for Magento instances with multiple websites and stores. This makes it possible to parallelize catalog price indexing by websites and customer groups. To re-index in parallel mode, add the MAGE_INDEXER_THREADS_COUNT environment variable to env.php.

The time required to load category or product pages for products that are configured with many attributes (more than 500) has been significantly reduced. Refactoring the logic for product attribute retrieval has resulted in a reduction of load time of almost 90% for scenarios with a large number of product attribute sets. (Performance will not noticeably improve for deployments with only one attribute set configured with 500 attributes. However, deployments with many attribute sets that contain only a few attributes will show significant performance improvement. For example, a deployment with 100 attribute sets, each of which contains 50 attributes, might see a 40-90% reduction in load time.)

The time required to load a store’s home page has been reduced noticeably when the top menu contains many categories. (Load time is still affected by the number of categories and the structure of the top menu.)

Merchants can now improve store performance by disabling Magento Report functionality. A new configuration setting (System Configuration: General > Reports > General Options) allows merchants to disable Magento Reports, which is recommended practice if a merchant’s business function does not require this capability.

Improvements to the reliability and ease of the checkout process

A shopping cart’s contents remain constant even when the checkout page is repeatedly reloaded. Previously, if a customer reloaded the checkout page several times, Magento emptied the shopping cart, and the customer could not place the order. (This problem primarily affected stores running on HTTPS.)

Refreshing the checkout page no longer deletes the shipping address when a guest checks out. Previously, when the persistent shopping cart was enabled, refreshing the checkout page affected information entered into form fields for a guest checkout.

The speed at which Magento places an order is no longer affected by how many shipping methods are available. Previously, when a customer placed an order for which multiple shipping methods were available, Magento took more than 20 seconds to place the order.

Additional enhancements

Configurable products are now sorted by visible prices as expected. Previously, sorting a catalog by price produced sort results that included the prices of out-of-stock products and disabled child products.

Magento no longer sends duplicate delete requests as a result of an unstable Internet connection. Previously, unintentional mass deletion of products sometimes occurred as a result of an unstable Internet connection.

Magento Cloud highlights

We’ve added a Docker Compose configuration to the Cloud ece-tools repository for deploying a local development environment.
Merchants can now change store locales without the exporting and importing configuration process.
A new workflow lets merchant add a robots.txt file and generate a sitemap.xml file for a single domain configuration without requiring a change to the infrastructure.
Merchants can now define multiple locales for each theme using the new SCD_MATRIX environment variable, which reduces the amount of theme files to deploy.
Zero-downtime deployment has been implemented through a “connection holding” capability, which ensures no lost connections or site unavailability, providing smooth shopper experience even during deployments involving database schema changes.
We’ve fixed an issue that caused downtime between the deploy and post-deploy phase. Now, the post_deploy phase begins immediately after the deploy phase ends.

Community contribution highlights

Highlights of community contributions include fixes that improve checkout flow and the sorting of simple products:

Customers can now successfully complete an order when it contains a configurable product with an option that is deleted after the product has been placed in the shopping cart. Previously, the shopping cart could not load the shopping cart after the configurable option was deleted. Thanks to community member jonshipman! GitHub-15467
Magento now maintains the default sort order for products (“newest first”) when you upgrade your Magento deployment. Previously, after upgrade, the default product order in categories changed from “newest first” to “oldest first”. Thanks to community member Danny Verkade! GitHub-15627
Merchants can now successfully change the applied theme setting for a store view (Content > Design > Configuration). Thanks to community member Daniel Ruf! GitHub-14968
Magento loads pages faster because it no longer redundantly calculates product taxes when loading category pages. Thanks to community member JeroenVanLeusden! GitHub-14941

Core bundled extension highlights

This release includes many enhancements to our core bundled extensions:

Amazon Pay

Enhancements to Amazon Pay include these features:

Implementation of the Magento payment provider gateway, which provides developers a mechanism for integrating stores with payment providers.
Improved handling of virtual products.
New entry in the Admin that allows Amazon Pay to be displayed in the list of payment options.
Combined Synchronous, if possible and Asynchronous settings for authorization mode into one setting. Current settings are now Immediate (previously Synchronous) and Automatic (a combination of the previous Synchronous, if possible and Asynchronous).

dotmailer

Enhancements to dotmailer include these new features:

You can now request and capture the consent of customers and guests using dotmailer’s new Consent Insight.
You can import only those Magento contacts who have opted in (customer subscribers, guest subscribers, and other subscribers).
A warning alerts you when you are about to sync non-subscribers into a dotmailer account.
Improvements have been made to the retry process that results after a failed attempt to access EDC.

Klarna

Enhancements to Klarna include support for these new features:

The Klarna Payments section now includes a link to Klarna automated onboarding and account sign in.
If an approved order is later identified as fraudulent, Klarna notifies the merchant and requests that they try to stop the order from being delivered. In addition, Klarna attempts to cancel the order automatically by sending notification to the merchant. See Managing Your Account for more information.
Shipping and discount order lines have been added to order management calls.
Klarna now passes shipping details in capture requests.
The Klarna API now returns the name and logo URL to use for each payment method instead of hard-coding the payment method names into the module.

For more information on these new features, see Klarna.

Magento Shipping

Batch Processing provides merchants with the ability to
- Specify and modify packages and experiences for orders assigned to a batch
- Book shipments for a batch
- Print all packing slips and printing labels for the batch
New Shipment Reference field associates bookings between a carrier and a customer

Magento has removed the Magento Social Facebook integration, and no longer supports the extension.

Looking for more information on these new features as well as many others? Check out Magento Developer Documentation and the Magento Commerce User Guide.

Fixes

In addition to security enhancements, this release contains the following functional fixes.

Installation, setup, and deployment

You can now use the app:config:status command to check whether configuration propagation is up-to-date. (This fix restores this command, which was inadvertently deleted in a previous release.) Fix submitted by Pieter Hoste in pull request 15174. GitHub-14104

The app:config:dump command now has an argument that supports dumping only the specified settings that are required to prepare static content on a build system, not all system settings. This new option (config-types) makes it possible to dump scopes and themes automatically (which are needed for a build system) while managing system settings manually using config:set --lock-config. Fix submitted by Juan Alonso in pull request 12410. GitHub-11396

Configuration backend models are now populated as expected with all fieldset data, which makes it possible to access all configured values from a current group. GitHub-16712

The magento-deploy-ignore setting in composer.json now works as expected. Previously, files specified in this setting were overwritten during deployment.

The timestamp fields in oauth_nonce now include indexes to avoid deadlocks while erasing old records. Fix submitted by Carlos Lizaga in pull request 13328. GitHub-10346

Sorting has been disabled in the glob and scandir functions to improve performance. Fix submitted by Leandro F. L. in pull request 16052.

The nginx.config.sample file no longer includes an option for PHP 5.x. (Magento 2.2.x is not compatible with PHP 5.x.) Fix submitted by Sean Breeden in pull request 16883.

Autoloading performance has improved on production environments as a result of the reduction in file_exists calls. Fix submitted by Pieter Hoste in pull request 16435.

Setting deploy mode to production mode by using the --skip-compilation flag no longer clears generated code in generated/code/ and generated/metadata/. Fix submitted by platformvaimo in pull request 16211.

We’ve made two changes to Magento/Config module: Magento/Config/Test/Unit/Block/System/Config/Form/Field/ImageTest.php::testGetElementHtmlWithValue() method no longer references a invalid backend model, and the anonymous function no longer has an unused $data in Magento/Config/Model/Config/Importer.php. Fix submitted by Marcel Hauri in pull request 15511.

The upgrade check implemented during setup now indicates success if the latest version of Magento is already installed. Previously, the message indicated that the latest product version was already installed was presented as error. Fix submitted by Daniel Ruf in pull request 15012.

The Add Block Names to Hints configuration setting has been renamed to Add Block Class Type to Hints. Fix submitted by Chris Pook in pull request 14939.

The cron:run command now reads cron/enabled configuration setting and if this value is set to 1 (the default value), then the cron:run command will execute. A value of 0 determines that cron:run will not be executed, and prompts Magento to send the customer email indicating that cron is disabled.

New command-line interface (CLI) commands support setting and showing indexer dimension modes:
- bin/magento indexer:set-dimensions-mode sets indexer dimensions mode
- bin/magento indexer:show-dimensions-mode shows dimensions mode of indexer

Amazon Pay

Amazon Pay no longer appears as an option during checkout when a customer selects Check Out with Multiple Addresses. Previously, Magento displayed Amazon Pay as an option, even though Amazon Pay does not support multishipping.

You can now change and save Amazon Pay configuration settings from Configuration > Sales > Payment Methods > Amazon Pay when deploying Magento in a Cloud environment. Previously, Magento did not save changed settings.

Bundle products

Magento now successfully imports bundle products. Previously, bundle products were not visible in the product catalog, and were listed as out-of-stock on the storefront.

The Magento_Bundle module name has been added to the relevant template files to meet Magento standard coding format. Fix submitted by Namrata in pull request 15825.

The option variable has been renamed to quoteItemOption to improve code readability in app/code/Magento/Bundle/Model/Product/Type.php. Fix submitted by Leandro F. L. in pull request 16143.

Magento now accurately displays the status of bundle product stock when Add to Cart is enabled for bundle products. Previously, bundle products with the User Defined field unchecked could not be back ordered as expected. GitHub-10061

Catalog

The breadcrumbs component no longer relies on the mageMenu widget. Fix submitted by Vova Yatsyuk in pull request 15178. GitHub-14987

The data-container class name is now based on view mode. Fix submitted by sunilit42 in pull request 15350. GitHub-15319

Breadcrumbs now work as expected when a product name contains quotation marks. Previously, the breadcrumbs on the product details page caused this syntax error to be thrown, SyntaxError: Unexpected token x in JSON. Fix submitted by Jignesh Baldha in pull request 15347. GitHub-15037

Disabling a product now removes it from the flat index as expected. Fix submitted by Mr. Lewis in pull request 15019. GitHub-14966

The success message that Magento displays when a customer adds a product to the compare list now contains a link to the comparison list. Fix submitted by Andreas von Studnitz in pull request 13862.

Cache problems no longer occur when currencies are used without a currency symbol. Fix submitted by Dmytro Cheshun in pull request 15902.

Catalog component blocks now contain correct return type suggestions, and typos have been corrected where needed in the PHPDocs. Fix submitted by Dmytro Cheshun in pull request 15913.

Widget cache errors that resulted in one widget being loaded twice on the storefront have been resolved. Fix submitted by Alexandr Kozyr in pull request 12764. GitHub-4389

Magento no longer makes redundant requests on the ‘customer data’ on the checkout page. Fix submitted by Andrey Bezyazychnyy in pull request 14314. GitHub-13765

Administrators with permission to change product names on one website only cannot change product names on any other sites. Previously, an administrator with permission to change a product name on one site only could change product names on all websites in a multisite deployment.

Administrators with limited privileges can now save products as expected.

Magento now uses the current date as expected when setting the start date for a special price. Previously, Magento set the start date for a special price a few years in the future, which prevented the special price for being active.

Magento now reliably displays category images on the custom store view level. Previously, the category image on custom store view level alternately disappeared and appeared after every save operation.

Magento no longer removes downloadable product links after an attribute is updated.

Extra POST requests are no longer sent if the Synchronize widget products with backend storage option is set to yes.

You can now create a product date attribute that contains a day value than exceeds 12 (in the format dd/mm/yyyy). Previously, when you created a product attribute with a default date specifying a day greater than 12, Magento did not save the attribute, but instead displayed this error, Invalid default date.

You can now use the Magento\Catalog\Model\ProductRepository class to assign a product to one website as expected. Previously, using this class to save a product assigned the product to all existing websites, not just the specified one.

Images now load as expected on the product display page (PDP) when the image name contains double quotation marks.

The SEO-friendly URL for the Category page now works as expected.

The Use Default Value checkboxes in the design section of the category page are now enabled by default as expected.

Customers can now use the Add Product By SKU button to add configurable products to a sales order.

Empty dropdown or swatch type product attributes are no longer visible on the product page.

Attributes that have empty values across all products being compared are not displayed as rows in the comparison table. Previously, Magento displayed these attributes with an N/A value on the Compare Products page.

The Catalog page now displays breadcrumbs as expected.

Tiered pricing and quantity increments now work as expected with decimal-based inventories.

Magento now updates the catalog_category_product_index table as expected after a category is deleted.

Customizable options are now configured the same for all websites to which a product is added. Previously, when a merchant added a product with customizable options to an additional site, the options were corrupted.

The Use default value option is no longer unchecked unless the user overrides the value of the attribute in the store view scope. Previously, after creating an item, if the user changed to store view scope and did not make any modifications to the item’s attributes and only clicked Save, most of the attributes that were set as Use default value became unchecked.

Category product indexer logic has been optimized, and re-indexing time has been noticeably reduced. Previously, when you had many categories (100,000), Magento could take up to 40 minutes to re-index product catalogs.

Widget selection by Enabled Products no longer causes a fatal error on a storefront when the Flat Product is configured.

Merchants can now change the status and update attributes from the product page. Previously, Magento returned a 404 page when bulk enabling or disabling products in the Admin with a restricted user role that is limited to a specific website.

Magento now maintains the default setting for a product’s status attribute when you create a new product. Previously, when creating a new product after changing the default option from Enabled to Disabled for this attribute, the status is incorrectly set to enabled by default.

The print preview of product comparison results (that is, the page of results that Magento produces when you click Compare after selecting two or more products) now displays as expected. Previously, only a subset of page elements was displayed.

Magento now maintains the correct dates in the results of filtering the Admin Product Grid Filter: Set Product as New from Date. GitHub-11517

As you type additional characters into the text field for a product’s custom option, the hint showing the number of characters left before reaching the maximum now decreases as expected.

Merchants can now set custom option fixed prices with negative values in the Admin. GitHub-7333

You can now unset a category image on the store-view level when the image is defined on all store views.

The Catalog Products List widget can now display products on the storefront that have specific attributes.

The shopping cart now correctly displays images of configurable products that have only size options (that is, no color options). Previously, when a customer added a configurable product that had only size options to her shopping cart, the shopping cart did not display the expected product image. Fix submitted by Ronak Patel in pull request 16863. GitHub-16843

Magento now throws an exception as expected when a user tries to submit a product review without selecting a star rating. Previously, if a user submitted a product review without selecting a star rating, Magento assigned a one-star rating.

Magento now successfully displays product prices in currencies without minor units if the price amount is less then the number group size. GitHub-11711

Magento now displays the correct price on the product page for storefronts running Japanese locales. Fix submitted by Vishal Gelani in pull request 15909. GitHub-11711

Magento now correctly saves the value of a product’s custom options. Previously, Magento saved all objects by using the same value object for all values. Fix submitted by Jeroen Van Leusden in pull request 13569. GitHub-5067

Magento now displays the product name as browser title as expected. Previously, the meta title tag was missing, which prevented Magento from displaying the product name. Fix submitted by Riccardo Tempesta in pull request 15532. GitHub-15501

Magento now maintains the default products sort order of “newest first” when you upgrade your Magento deployment to 2.2.4. Previously, after upgrade, the default products order in categories changed from “newest first” to “oldest first”. Fix submitted by Danny Verkade in pull request 15629. GitHub-15627

Links on product pages are now linkable as expected. Previously, when Magento displayed a product page, none of the provided links were clickable. Fix submitted by simonjanguapa in pull request 15687. GitHub-15393

Deprecated methods in Message Manager have been replaced with valid methods. Fix submitted by Tiago Sampaio in pull request 16924.

Array short syntax usage has been standardized in these files: app/code/Magento/Catalog/Test/Unit/Model/ProductTest.php, app/code/Magento/GroupedProduct/Test/Unit/Model/ProductTest.php, and setup/src/Magento/Setup/Module/Di/Code/Reader/FileScanner.php. Fix submitted by Leandro F. L. in pull request 16880.

The error message that Magento displayed when a duplicate error key occurred during product import has been improved. Fix submitted by Vishal Gelani in pull request 16389.

We’ve removed the direct use of the object manager when saving Admin attribute sets. Fix submitted by AnshuMishra17 in pull request 16217.

Breadcrumb JSON configuration has been moved to the view model and serialized using the Magento JSON serializer. Fix submitted by Diederick Bruin in pull request 15521.

row_id has been added to the flat action indexer, ensuring that index values are not set to 0 for new products when using index on save. Previously, if you used \Magento\Framework\Api\SearchCriteriaBuilder, and the flat product row_id is set to 0, Magento did not show the product in the getList of the ProductRepository. Fix submitted by Mr. Lewis in pull request 15010.

Magento no longer inserts redundant links to the homepage into breadcrumbs on the product page. Fix submitted by Vova Yatsyuk in pull request 14994.

Magento now correctly displays product information for products that have a negative price as a custom option. Fix submitted by Danny Verkade in pull request 15202.

Product names can now contain a double quotation mark character ("). Previously, when a product name contained this character, Magento threw a JavaScript error. Fix submitted by Vova Yatsyuk in pull request 15162.

Administrators who lack access to the CatalogRule module can now perform operations as expected in the Admin cart price rule edit page. Fix submitted by Neos2007 in pull request 14886.

Magento now updates product options and quantity by checking the item ID when updating a cart that contains configurable products with different options. Fix submitted by Nitin Khalasi in pull request 14765.

Product meta descriptions no longer contain unnecessary HTML tags. Fix submitted by David Windell in pull request 14538.

Attributes that have empty values across all products being compared are not displayed on the Compare Products page as rows in the comparison table. Previously, these attributes were displayed with a value of N/A.

Inputted data in filter fields now persists unchanged after you leave the product edit page. Previously, the values in the Set Product as New from Date field were not saved as expected.

Company Admin can now use Quick Order to buy products. Previously, when a company administator tried to use Quick Order to buy products, Magento displayed this error: The SKU was not found in the catalog.

CAPTCHA

Customers can now successfully log in when guest checkout is disabled and CAPTCHA is enabled. Previously, Magento threw the Provided form does not exist error when a customer tried to log in under these conditions.

CAPTCHA validation now works when the Website Restrictions setting is enabled.

The \Magento\Captcha\Observer\CaptchaStringResolver class is now covered by unit tests. Fix submitted by Yaroslav Rogoza in pull request 16065. GitHub-14966

The CheckGuestCheckoutObserver class is now covered by unit tests. Fix submitted by Yaroslav Rogoza in pull request 16680.

Cart and checkout

Placeholders for the password field no longer suggest that a password is optional. Previously, the placeholder for the password field in the checkout page suggested that the password was optional, but after validation, Magento indicated that the password field was mandatory. Fix submitted by hitesh-wagento in pull request 16379. GitHub-16378

The dropdown toggle icon on the shopping cart now works as expected. Previously, the arrow did not change direction as expected when you toggled the Discount or Tax options. Fix submitted by Karla Saaremäe in pull request 15991.

The shopping cart icon on the checkout page on mobile screens now displays hover color and regular color as expected. Fix submitted by Karla Saaremäe in pull request 16002.

Free shipping coupons now work as expected with Table Rates shipping. Previously, Magento displayed this message when a customer tried to use a free shipping coupon: Sorry, no quotes are available for this order. GitHub-8172

Magento now displays correct store view prices for cases when a merchant uses a CSV file to add products by SKU from the Admin.

A merchant can successfully use SKU values that contain capital letters to add a product to a cart from the Admin.

Magento now displays a message when a gift card card is removed during checkout.

Guest orders placed with gift cards can now be canceled.

Fix submitted by jonshipman in pull request 15468. GitHub-15467

Magento now displays the manufacturer attribute on the Admin on the Catalog page for configurable products. Previously, Magento displayed these attributes on the simple products catalog page, but not on the configurable products catalog page.

When two simple products of a configurable product have different prices, Magento now uses the lowest price as the default price on the product detail page. Previously, if one of the simple products had price=0, Magento did not use it as the default. Fix submitted by Torrey Tsui in pull request 16540.

The missing check for a false value has been added to ConfiguredRegularPrice. Previously, when the parent method returned false, Magento threw this fatal error: NOTICE: PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument 1 passed to Magento\Catalog\Pricing\Price\ConfiguredOptions::getItemOptionsValue() must be of the type float, boolean given, called in /app/vendor/magento/module-catalog/Pricing/Price/ConfiguredRegularPrice.php on line 74 and defined in /app/vendor/magento/module-catalog/Pricing/Price/ConfiguredOptions.php:24.

Cookies

Customer account

Magento no longer logs out a customer after a successful password change.

Magento no longer displays the State/Province instead of the State field on U.S. customer address forms.

The validation process for new subscribers no longer permits subscribers to be enrolled multiple times into the new subscriber program.

A merchant can now successfully create a new user and displays the appropriate welcome message. Previously, Magento threw an error during the creation of a customer or subscriber, although the new user/subscriber was created.

EAV

Magento now correctly renders multiselect product attributes with a custom source model in adminhtml. Previously, the selected value was saved the first time in the catalog_product_entity_varchar table, and the attribute was added to the eav_attribute table, but the selected options were not highlighted against the attribute.

Magento now displays the fixed product tax attribute label as expected according to the specified store view.

You can now successfully save a product after setting its special requirements multiselect attribute. (This means that attribute values are saved as expected to the database, checked in _catalog_product_entity_varchar_ table, and displayed as non-selected on product page in the Admin.)

Frameworks

In multi-site deployments, a customer requesting a password reset on a non-default store should receive the password reset email from the non-default, not the primary, store.

The trigger_recollect quote attribute no longer causes a time out. Fix submitted by Philipp Sander in pull request 14719. GitHub-9580

Framework\Math\Random now uses PHP 7.x features, including random_bytes and random_int.

The catalog:image:resize command execution time has been reduced by up to 90% in the release. However, this improvement necessitates these additional steps after upgrading your Magento instance to 2.2.6:
- Remove pub/media/catalog/product/cache. (Removing this folder frees up space.)
- Run bin/magento catalog:image:resize to generate a new image cache. (This step is necessary because we’ve changed the path to cached images and must remove the previously cached images.)

We’ve fixed a display error that occurred when both a Critical Admin Notification and Release Notification window were opened.

Changes that were made to file permissions for lib/internal/Magento/Framework/View/Asset/Merged.php and its associated test that were made in an earlier release have been reverted. Fix submitted by Ihor Sviziev in pull request 16937.

Web API framework

The array_push function has been added to the list of forbidden functions. Fix submitted by Leandro F. L. in pull request 16144.

A generated admin API token no longer expires immediately. Previously, when you created a token for an Admin user and have set Admin Token Lifetime (hours)) to empty, Magento denied access because the token immediately expired. Fix submitted by Maikel Martens in pull request 15598. GitHub-15564

The GET /V1/returns?searchCriteria endpoint retrieves tracks arrays as expected.

The GET /V1/returns/:id endpoint retrieves tracks arrays as expected.

General

Magento now uses the correct amounts when creating a credit memo for an order that was placed using store credit, a gift card, or reward points.

Magento no longer sends duplicate delete requests as a result of an unstable Internet connection. Previously, unintentional mass deletion of products sometimes occurred as a result of an unstable Internet connection.

When a customer creates a product review, the link to the product from the review in the customer’s My Account > My Product Review is now SEO friendly.

Fix submitted by Maksim Gopey in pull request 15826.

Fix submitted by Marcel Hauri in pull request 15258.

The product video feature is now GDPR-compliant.

Gift cards

Magento now displays the Credit Memo link at the top of the page for orders with a total of 0 (zero). Previously, this link was missing, which prevented users from creating a credit memo for the order.

You can now save gift cards without the price being changed on the Admin to an unacceptable format. Previously, Magento tried to save amounts in unacceptable formats (such as the inclusion of a comma in a four-digit price), which triggered an error.

Magento no longer permits users to save a new gift card without first completing the required values. Previously, when creating a gift card, users could save the card without having designated an amount, but the card could not be purchased. Magento also created a report.CRITICAL: Warning error message in the system.log.

Orders now retain gift message information on both item and order level. Previously, gift messages disappeared from an order when a customer logged into his account during checkout.

Magento now maintains relationships between new gift card accounts when a customer purchases several gift cards in the same order.

Magento now refunds only the exact amount used on a gift card if only the part of the gift card was used. Previously, when a customer used a gift card account code to partially pay for an order, and Magento subsequently created a credit memo for a portion of the order, the full amount of the gift card was refunded.

Magento now generates the same number of gift card codes when the full order is invoiced as the customer selected when creating an order. Previously, for orders that included both physical products and multiple gift cards, the number of gift card codes generated on an order corresponded to the quantity of the previous physical line items that the user had added to the cart before adding gift cards.

Gift message

Orders now retain gift message information on both item and order level. Previously, gift messages disappeared from an order when a customer logged into his account during checkout.

Google Analytics

Google analytics pageview is no longer triggered twice. Fix submitted by Torben Höhn in pull request 15765. GitHub-12221

Magento\GoogleAnalytics\Observer\SetGoogleAnalyticsOnOrderSuccessPageViewObserver is now covered by unit tests. Fix submitted by Yaroslav Rogoza in pull request 17137.

Google Tag Manager

The addToCart event triggers on the Google Task Manager console only when an item is added to the cart. Previously, the event was triggered before the cart was updated.

Google Analytics events are now triggered as expected. Specifically, the addToCart and removeFromCart events are not triggered until after a customer adds a product to the mini cart.

Magento now accurately updates the mini cart when a customer removes a product while accessing a storefront using Internet Explorer 11.x. Previously, when a customer removed a product from the mini cart, Magento did not remove the product but instead threw this error, (SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support property or method 'find'. File: sidebar.js, Line: 237, Column: 13 ).

Google Tag Manager product category data is now fully reported. Previously, the Google Tag Manager product category (Enhanced Ecommerce) data did not report all information.

HTML

Responsive table headers now work as expected. Previously, when no heading was present in the data-th attribute on a column for a responsive table in Magento, only a colon was present. Fix submitted by Sean Templeton in pull request 16517.

Corrected HTML syntax in the report.phtml error template. Fix submitted by abcpremium in pull request 15454.

Import/export

Product import now updates the Enable Qty Increments field as expected. Fix submitted by Sergey P in pull request 14379. GitHub-14351

Infrastructure

Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) calls now return order items and comments as expected.

Payment methods

Braintree

You can now cancel an order that was placed with Braintree when the Braintree authorization had expired.

Previously, when a merchant tried to enable more than one payment method from the Admin, Magento displayed this error in the console, Found elements with non-unique id billing-address-form.

A type error in the payment void method of the Authorizenet module has been fixed. Fix submitted by Oleh Kravets in pull request 16194. GitHub-16184

Pagecache

Full-page cache now works as expected in multistore deployments. Previously, when you opened the URL of a non-default store in a multistore deployment, full-page cache did not return the URL.

Performance

The catalog rule re-indexing operation has been optimized, and average re-indexing time (which depends on rule conditions) has improved by more than 80%. Previously, a full catalog rule re-index operation on a medium B2C store took more than 20 minutes.

Merchants can now improve store performance by disabling Magento Report functionality if business function does not require this capability. A new configuration setting (System Configuration: General > Reports > General Options) allows merchants to disable Magento Reports, which is recommended practice if a merchant’s business function does not require this capability.

You can change store locale without the exporting and importing configuration process. While Magento is in Production and the SCD_ON_DEMAND is enabled, the Magento store and admin locale options are available. See Change locales.

The time required to load category or product pages for products that are configured with many attributes (more than 500) has been significantly reduced. Refactoring the logic for product attribute retrieval has resulted in a reduction of load time of almost 90% for certain scenarios.

The time required to load a store’s home page has been reduced noticeably when the top menu contains many categories. (Load time is still affected by the number of categories and the structure of the top menu.)

The speed of catalog price rule save operations has been improved by these changes:
- elimination of unnecessary reindexing
- improvement to the way that the getMatchingProductIds function fetches products, which has eliminated unnecessary checks of the data set. Fix submitted by Andrey Zabara in pull request 14707.

The ID to SKU lookup process for tier prices has been optimized. Previously, with a large number of tier or group prices, each tier would separately make a database query to look up the associated SKU. Fix submitted by Todd Christensen in pull request 14699.

Product video

Magento now populates the YouTube video URL and Title fields with the same values as are populated on the default store view on multisite deployments. (These fields are global scope attributes and should be the same on all storefronts.) Previously, Magento left these fields blank in multisite deployments.

Quote

Magento now displays the correct product price for an order created from the Admin in multisite deployments. Previously, when an order was created from the Admin in a multisite deployment where products were assigned different prices per store view, Magento defaulted to the product price of the primary storeview if the order was edited or updated. Fix submitted by Riccardo Tempesta in pull request 14904. GitHub-14869

Magento now successfully saves the value of REMOTE_IP when a customer uses an IPV6 (Internet Protocol version 6) address. Previously, this value was only partially saved in the sales_order and quote tables. Fix submitted by George Schiopu in pull request 14976. GitHub-10395

Coupon codes now work for guest users through the web API as well as from the storefront. Fix submitted by Marcin Dykas in pull request 15320. GitHub-14056

Fix submitted by Yogesh Suhagiya in pull request 15173.

Rule

A cart rule that uses a subselection condition now works as executed. Previously, cart rules with this condition automatically granted a discount.

The retrieval of first array elements in the following files has been improved: app/code/Magento/Rule/Model/Action/AbstractAction.php and app/code/Magento/Rule/Model/Condition/Combine.php. Fix submitted by Thomas Klein in pull request 16053. GitHub-15940

The condition category chooser now handles multiple nested categories as expected. Previously, if a cart rule contained several nested categories, no categories appeared on the page, the page became unresponsive, and eventually crashed. Fix submitted by Keith Bentrup in pull request 15265. GitHub-15121

Sales

Order status now remains in the Complete state after Magento refunds store credit on a partial credit memo. Previously, under these circumstances, Magento changed the status of the order to Closed.

You can now create multiple credit memos in one session and save each successfully. Previously, Magento displayed this error when you tried to save a second credit memo after creating the first memo: Could not save credit memo.

Magento now displays any errors that occur during order creation in the browser console. Previously, Magento displayed this message: Uncaught ReferenceError: order is not defined during order creation instead of a specific error message.

The POST /V1/shipment endpoint processes tracks arrays as expected.

Magento no longer reverts to the country associated with the default website when a customer edits the billing address for an order. Previously, if a customer edited the shipping address for an order, Magento would reset the billing address to the default address specified for the default website.

Swagger now handles searchCriteria-related requests as expected. Fix submitted by Jakub in pull request 15040. GitHub-15322

You can now use an asterix when searching on customer names. Previously, if you used an asterix in a search query, Magento displayed this message, Something went wrong with processing the default view and we have restored the filter to its original state. Fix submitted by Riccardo Tempesta in pull request 14905. GitHub-14855

Magento now displays validation messages as needed on advanced searches. Previously, Magento did not display a message even after a customer submitted the advanced search form with no entries. Fix submitted by Ben Robie in pull request 16952. GitHub-8131

Server load has been reduced for advanced searching. Previously, when a customer entered text in the search suggestion box, Magento immediately sent every character to the server. The auto-complete box now delays sending the request. Fix submitted by Sean Templeton in pull request 16669.

You can now successfully clone the minisearch widget. Fix submitted by Daniel Ruf in pull request 15485.

Elasticsearch

Bundle products are now indexed as expected in Elasticsearch.

Elasticsearch now correctly calculates the relevance of quick search results according to selected attribute search weights.

Admin global search

Admin global search preview now works as expected. Previously, this feature worked inconsistently, and search results differed depending on which area was being searched (for example, Products, Categories, or Customers).

The Admin global search now returns results that match the keyword for all available pages, or if a user searches in specific sections, the search feature now returns only the results that matched the key words in those specific sections. Previously, the Admin global search did not return results that matched the specified keywords and did not restrict results to specified sections.

Catalogs are now correctly filtered by the Admin search bar. Previously, if you attempted to use the Search tool in the Admin, and selected “XX in Products”, Magento displayed the full catalog view without narrowing down the list. Fix submitted by Pavel in pull request 12735. GitHub-12193, GitHub-7861

Shipping

You can find Magento Shipping-specific release notes in Magento Shipping Release Notes.

The free shipping cart price rule now works as expected when UPS shipping method is enabled and Free Shipping is set to “For matching items only”.

The shipping progress dates displayed in tracking popup for FedEx shipping are now accurate.

Sitemap

Sitemaps generated by cron no longer display /pub/ in image URLs when docroot is set to /pub. Previously, if the docroot was set to pub and BASE MEDIA URL was not set, the cron-generated sitemap generated incorrect image URLs.

Magento now generates correct product URLs for sitemaps. Previously, when the Use Categories Path for Product URLs attribute was set to no in Configuration > Catalog > Search Engine Optimization, Magento generated the wrong product URL in the sitemap.

Images in XML sitemap are no longer always linked to the primary store in a multistore deployment. Fix submitted by Steven de Jong in pull request 15689. GitHub-15588

Split sitemaps now use the index sitemap name as a prefix. Previously, when generating large sitemaps that result in a single index sitemap and several smaller split sitemap files, the split sitemap files did not use the same name prefix as the parent. Fix submitted by James Halsall in pull request 14836.

Store

The getUrlInStore() method no longer returns URLs that contain the store code, which has shortened the extremely long URLs it previously returned. Fix submitted by Burlacu Vasilii in pull request 16468. GitHub-16273

Swatches

The process of switching attribute input type has been fixed, which resolves multiple issues that customers were experiencing when working with swatches, including:
- inability to change attribute types from swatch to dropdown
- inability to remove swatches from existing products when changing an attribute type from swatch
- no updates to product attributes on the storefront. Fix submitted by Eugene Shab in pull request 12771. GitHub-9307, GitHub-11403, GitHub-11703, GitHub-12695

Tax

Redundant product tax recalculation has been reduced during the loading of category pages, which has improved page loading. Fix submitted by JeroenVanLeusden in pull request 15089. GitHub-14941

JavaScript code in the *.phtml file of the Tax module has been refactored to meet Magento coding standards. Fix submitted by Vishal Gelani in pull request 15343. GitHub-15352

Translation

The translation.json file now contains translatable strings for the phrases “Store Credit” and “Gift Card”. Previously, these strings were not translated for the shopping cart, one-page checkout, or order view in the customer account on the storefront.

We’ve added client-side caching of js-translation.js.

Removed the unused translation for comment tag from these files: app/code/Magento/Analytics/etc/adminhtml/system.xml, app/code/Magento/Catalog/etc/adminhtml/system.xml, app/code/Magento/Swatches/etc/adminhtml/system.xml, and app/code/Magento/Ups/etc/adminhtml/system.xml.

Known issues

Issue: Merchants cannot save a newly created multiselect or dropdown customer attribute or edit existing customer attributes from the customer’s account on the storefront after upgrade to Magento 2.2.6.

Workaround: Download and apply hot fix MAGETWO-95591. This issue will be fixed in Magento Open Source 2.2.7, which is scheduled for release by the end of 2018.

Issue: The catalog:image:resize command execution time has been reduced by up to 90% in the release. However, this improvement necessitates these additional steps after upgrading your Magento instance to 2.2.6:

Remove pub/media/catalog/product/cache. The path for cached images was changed in this release, which explains why you need to clean this directory after upgrade to free up space.
Run bin/magento catalog:image:resize to generate a new image cache. This step is necessary because we’ve changed the path to cached images and must remove the previously cached images.
