Support avif file format in media, because it is still not supported yet: https://docs.shopware.com/en/shopware-6-en/content/media#overview
avif is fully supported by modern browsers except Microsoft Edge (in beta): https://caniuse.com/?search=avif8 votes -
Automatically transform images into webp / avif format
Make it possible to transform images (especially product images) into into webp or avif. Here, you should select which one to use. Also: if you want to delete the original from the media storage.
Why: For SEO, you get a better rank while the website loading faster. The plugins for doing this are terrible.12 votes -
Support for dynamic Thumbnails through services
Short: Implement plugin FroshPlatformThumbnailProcessor into the core
Longer: Add the ability to define a pattern for thumbnails to be used instead of creating or requesting thumbnails from storage. Additionally, shopware could host a service to convert images on the fly, f.e. see imgproxy.net - maybe just with nicer links. Just add a caching before that and win.
Advantages: Any shop owner has webp/avif-images with the best compression and suitable sizes without wasting storages.

Automated Calculation of Fees (Customs & Taxes) in Checkout for International Orders
Currently, Shopware 6 does not provide a native feature for automatically calculating variable fees such as customs duties, import taxes, or country-specific charges during checkout.
However, this functionality is increasingly important for international merchants to ensure a legally compliant and transparent order process.Competing platforms (e.g., Shopify) already offer this functionality as a built-in feature. It enables automated calculation and display of additional fees (e.g., customs duties, import VAT, service fees) based on product value, shipping destination, product category, or customs tariff number (HS code).
In Shopware, this can currently only be achieved through manual configuration using the shipping method price matrix, which is not dynamic and cannot handle complex calculation logic (e.g., article-based or country-based variations). Additionally, surcharges added via the price matrix are included in the cart subtotal, leading to incorrect tax and duty calculations when these are applied again on top.
Use Cases:
International Shipping: Merchants shipping outside the EU (e.g., to the US, UK, Canada, or Switzerland) need to automatically calculate and display customs and import duties.
Legal Compliance & Transparency: Customers should be informed of all applicable fees during checkout to prevent unexpected costs or returns.
Automation & Efficiency: Merchants want to automate fee calculation via integrations with external tax or logistics services (e.g., Avalara, Zonos, FedEx API, etc.) rather than maintaining manual tables.
Competitive Edge: Competing eCommerce systems like Shopify or BigCommerce already include this capability, putting Shopware at a disadvantage, especially for international merchants.
Suggested Implementation:
-
Introduce a dynamic fee calculation module within checkout, based on:
- Shipping destination
- Product item data (including tariff/HS code)
- Total cart value
- Potentially also carrier or fulfillment method
Provide API endpoints and plugin interfaces for integrating external tax or customs calculation services.
-
Add configurable admin settings to define:
- Which fee types should be calculated (customs, taxes, service fees, etc.)
- Whether the fees should be shown in the cart or added during checkout only.
The technical foundation could be a core-level extensibility module that third-party providers can build upon.
Benefits:
Increased legal compliance for international trade.
Transparent cost display for customers.
Reduced cart abandonment rates due to unexpected delivery charges.
Improved competitiveness and attractiveness for global and enterprise merchants.

Checkbox für AGB entfernen, weil rechtlich unnötig
Laut https://www.heise.de/hintergrund/Warum-im-Netz-Checkboxen-fuer-AGB-und-Datenschutz-meist-ueberfluessig-sind-10449542.html braucht man keine Checkboxen für Datenschutzerklärung und AGB.
Durch das Entfernen der Checkbox für die AGB im Checkout ist der Checkout viel schneller und einfacher.
Bei der verlinkten Seite sind Formulierungen für den Text angegeben. Ohne Checkbox muss der Text angepasst werden.
Viele Besucher übersehen die Checkbox, klicken auf den Kaufen-Button und bekommen dann eine Fehlermeldung, dass sie erst einen Haken setzen müssen.

Highlight incomplete CAPTCHA field in checkout
In the current Shopware SaaS checkout, which uses FriendlyCaptcha, users sometimes overlook the CAPTCHA field. After filling out all required fields, they attempt to continue the checkout process, but nothing happens. There is no indication that the CAPTCHA is missing.
While other required fields are highlighted in red or otherwise marked when incomplete, the CAPTCHA field does not receive any visual feedback. This can lead to confusion and interrupt the checkout experience.
It is therefore suggested that the CAPTCHA field be visually highlighted (e.g., marked in red) when it has not been completed, consistent with the behavior of other required fields. This improvement could help ensure a smoother and clearer checkout flow for users.

Option for B2B Components order related mails send to customer Orga employee mail
In B2B environments, orders are often placed by employees acting on behalf of their organization. Currently, Shopware sends order confirmation emails only to the primary email address of the customer account (Main Account).
However, in many cases, it is desirable for the employee who submitted the order to also receive — or solely receive — the order confirmation email or documents.
To address this, a new configuration option should be added to the customer or organization settings, allowing administrators to define the default behavior for order confirmation emails.
Functional Proposal:
Add a setting in the B2B customer configuration:
Option A: Send order confirmation to the organization’s main (default) email address.
Option B: Send order confirmation to the email address of the employee who placed the order.
The setting should be adjustable per organization.
Optionally, allow sending to both addresses.

Add more granular permissions for PayPal
Currently, every admin user with the permission to edit an order (order.editor) can issue refunds of PayPal payments. It would be very helpful to add more granular permissions so that employees can modify orders but cannot issue refunds.

Improvements to the thumbnail generator
One customer noticed these limitations of the thumbnail generator:
Square dimensions are used by default. This means that images with different widths and heights can vary greatly in quality when portrait and landscape images are used at the same time.The media manager allows the width and height to be set differently, but thumbnails that deviate from this format will be of poorer quality.
In the customer's words:
A square display is rarely the case. The most common display is landscape format.For optimal quality, the shortest side should be used rather than the longest side.
This is the only way to ensure that images are always (!) optimally used in the respective resolution and based on the srcset / sizes attributes.

Category-specific visibility of individual CMS elements in experience worlds
The customer wants to:
- hide a single CMS element for specific categories,
- without having to maintain multiple nearly identical layouts.The request clearly focuses on a more granular layout configuration that can be flexibly adapted to the category context.
Current situation (as of Shopware 6 standard):
- CMS elements are hard-coded into the layout.
- While a layout can be assigned to multiple categories, individual elements cannot be shown or hidden depending on the category.
- Although the Rule Builder offers controllable visibility (via CMS extensions), the active category is not available as a condition in the rule context.
- Therefore, it is technically impossible to control element visibility contextually at the category level.Impact / UX limitations:
- For shops with many categories, this limit leads to high maintenance effort, as layouts have to be duplicated.
- Changes to the main layout then have to be manually transferred to all duplicates → error-prone and confusing.
- The lack of category context in the CMS is increasingly perceived as a restriction, especially in larger catalog structures.The customer wants to:

JSON LD

Es ist deutlich einfacher zu warten, separiert die Daten klar von der Markup ... und ist von Shopware zu erwarten ;)

Improving admin management for product reviews
In order to work effectively with product reviews, improvements are needed in the admin management for product reviews.
Currently, managing reviews is not possible; there are no filters (e.g. product, stars, sales channel, language, approved, date) and after editing a review, you are taken straight back to the first page.4 votes -
Quick check for plugin and dependency updates compatible with current Shopware version
Right now, there’s no quick way to see which plugin or dependency updates are actually compatible with the installed Shopware version.
composer outdated shows all new versions, ignoring compatibility.
The Admin popup just says “updates available” without details.
It would be very helpful to have a CLI command and/or an Admin view that lists only installable updates based on the current Shopware version.

Payment method change after order receipt with new payment method
Currently, when changing the payment method of an existing order (/account/order/edit-payment), the rule engine is not re-executed.
Instead, Shopware continues to use the payment methods that were available at the time the original order was placed.
This results in the following scenarios not being handled correctly:
- Payment methods become valid for the customer retroactively (e.g., based on tags, customer groups, or rules) → but do not appear in the selection.
- Rules change retroactively (e.g., "Always valid" is added) → no update occurs.
- Changes to customer data, addresses, or order items are not reflected.This means that customers cannot select an updated payment method, even if they meet the requirements after placing the order.
The payment method cannot currently be changed in the admin panel either.
When changing the payment method for an existing order, the payment methods should be determined dynamically based on current data and rules – not based on historical data.
The customer should therefore always see all currently valid payment methods.

Add promotion code via link
It would be a nice feature if discount codes could be redeemed via link in the same way that EasyCoupon does it for example. This would allow merchants to send mails already including a working link to get the customer shopping with their discount. For the customers, this would make the journey smoother because they don't need to back and forth to get some code and find the field to enter it and so on.
Plus, the customer is probably much more likely to actually complete the checkout if they see their shiny discount applied at all times right from the moment they visit the store.

Make Advanced Search 2.0 more configurable
EN
Advanced Search 2.0 / OpenSearch already offers good results. However, not all users can make optimum use of it because, for example, it is not possible to set how much deviation a result may have compared to the top-ranked result. In the technical trade, product names can be very close to each other, so an exact match is often required here. Although the best results are presented first, similar results are also presented. For example, S25 and S25+ would be very close to each other and therefore offer the potential for a bad purchase with subsequent returns.For customers with such search requirements, it would be helpful if they could set how high the deviation in the ranking may be or how far the distance may be in the fuzzy search.

Advanced Search 2.0 / OpenSearch bietet bereits gute Ergebnisse. Jedoch ist nicht für alle Nutzer eine optimale Nutzung möglich, weil zum Beispiel nicht eingestellt werden kann, wie viel Abweichung ein Ergebnis im Vergleich zum top gerankten Ergebnis haben darf. Im technischen Handel können Produktbezeichnungen sehr nah beieinander liegen, daher wird hier oft eine genaue Übereinstimmung benötigt. Zwar werden die besten Ergebnisse als erstes präsentiert, aber ähnliche Ergebnisse ebenfalls. Somit würden als Beispiel S25 und S25+ sehr nah beieinander liegen und bieten somit Potenzial zum Fehlkauf mit anschließenden Retouren. Für Kunden mit solchen Anforderungen an die Suche wäre es hilfreich, wenn sie einstellen könnten, wie hoch die Abweichung im Ranking sein darf oder wie weit die Distanz bei der unscharfen Suche sein darf.EN

Enable Variant Changes Directly in the Shopping Basket and Checkout
Currently, when customers want to change a variant of a product already added to the shopping basket — for example, choosing a different size or color — they are required to leave the basket or checkout and navigate back to the product detail page. This process interrupts the purchasing flow and increases the likelihood of order cancellations or customer frustration.
With this enhancement, customers should be able to easily modify product variants directly from the basket or checkout interface.
Functional Proposal:
Add a variant selector for each product line item in the shopping basket and checkout.
When a customer changes a variant, the system automatically updates the line item’s price, stock information, and product image accordingly.
