[FIXED] How to use Magento 2 with an openlitespeed (free) web server?

Issue

I'm trying to setup Magento 2.3.0 server with OpenLiteServer and keep on bumping weird Rewrite rule errors:

Here's the full list of errors.

The website is working, but CSS and JS cannot be loaded so there are lot's of 404s

I'm thinking that I may be doing something wrong, or that OpenLiteSpeed does not support all of those commands inside the .htaccess files.

The magento 2 installation is just a basic magento 2.3.0 composer installation without anything added to it, and thus is set to default mode.

The file permissions are looking good too, but note that files are missing from the pub/static/frontend/luma/en_US/ directory:

Any hints?

Thank you

Solution

Assuming that the website is under /magento2 you'll need to insert the rewrites on the virtual host, at the rewrites section, enable the rewrite module as well.

  RewriteRule ^/magento2/pub/static/version.+?/(.+)$ /magento2/pub/static/$1 [L]
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
  RewriteRule /magento2/pub/static/.* /magento2/pub/static.php?resource=$0 [L]
  RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^TRAC[EK]
  RewriteRule .* - [L,R=405]
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
  RewriteRule .* /magento2/index.php [L]

[FIXED] How to add/Insert Extension in magento 2.0?

Issue

I tried to add the external magento-2 extension but I can't add it because I can't find magento-connect in admin side. I think the admin panel doesn't have magento-connect. Do you have any idea about this to share, or a good tutorial that could help?

Solution

Installing Magento 2 extension is an easy task .. you just need to extract your extension zip file and place the folder inside your Magento 2 app/code directory so that the structure should be like app/code/namespace/module-name

then you have to run some commands for registering your Magento 2 extension

open terminal inside your Magento 2 directory, parallel to the app directory

run these commands-

1. giving read write permission to your magento 2 directory

   sudo chmod -R 777 /path of Magento 2 folder such as /opt/lampp/htdocs/Training/Magento_2.0

if you are using linux operating system then you have to run this command . for windows it is not necessary.

2. for registering your extension

   /opt/lampp/bin/php bin/magento module:enable Namespace_Modulename /opt/lampp/bin/php bin/magento setup:upgrade

3. for compiling your extension code

   /opt/lampp/bin/php bin/magento setup:di:compile

now flush your cache , delete cache folder from your Magento 2 var directory.

[FIXED] How to remove "My Wish List" and "Compare Products" blocks from Magento 2.0 Luma template?

Issue

I have spent a lot of hours trying to remove "My Wish List" and "Compare Products" blocks from Luma template. Besides, I need to change and remove some of the bottom links.

I cannot find where to modify. Can you help me, please?

Thanks

Solution

I've tried following step it worked for me.

1. My Wish List

For wish List you need to remove it via Admin > Stores > Configuration > Customers > Wish list > General Options make to enabled to no and then save it.

2. Compare Product

Here you need to do some coding level changes. follow me

Go to vendor > magento > theme-frontend-luma > Magento_Catalog > layout > default.xml

Open this file find this tag "" and before body end tag put the following code

<referenceBlock name="catalog.compare.sidebar" remove="true"/>

Make sure this will remove compare product from category product listing however you can uses this to any layout.

Once you done with this don't forget to clearing cache if enable otherwise you will not get desirable output.

Let me know if you have still any query

[FIXED] How to get Product Attribute Options by attribute code in Magento 2.0

Issue

I am trying to retrieve the list of dropdown attributes and check if the value exists (if it does i need to get the value and assign it to the product) and if it doesnt i will have to create it and get its value to assign it to the product.

$attribute = $this->objectManager->create('Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute');
$attributeId = $attribute->getIdByCode('catalog_product','manufacturer');
$model = $this->objectManager->create('Magento\Catalog\Model\ResourceModel\Eav\Attribute');
$model->load($attributeId);
print_r($model->getFrontendLabel());

Solution

Following Magento 2 guidelines, you should not use ObjectManager by yourself. Instead, you must use dependency injection. More info here

In your Block/Controller/Helper..., create a constructor and inject \Magento\Catalog\Api\ProductAttributeRepositoryInterface class. For example :

private \Magento\Catalog\Api\ProductAttributeRepositoryInterface $productAttributeRepository;

public function __construct(
    \Magento\Catalog\Api\ProductAttributeRepositoryInterface $productAttributeRepository
) {
    $this->productAttributeRepository = $productAttributeRepository;
}

Then, in your dedicated method, you want to call (PHPDoc added for clarity) :

/** @var \Magento\Eav\Api\Data\AttributeOptionInterface[] $manufacturerOptions */
$manufacturerOptions = $this->productAttributeRepository->get('manufacturer')->getOptions();

You can now get options values and labels this way :

foreach ($manufacturerOptions as $manufacturerOption) {
    $manufacturerOption->getValue();  // Value
    $manufacturerOption->getLabel();  // Label
}
