Magento with Varnish cache : when is a varnish cache flushed ?

Hello ! I’m currently trying to understand how the varnish flushing is done from Magento.

As I don’t have a lot of insights on the varnish side, I would like to know when the varnish cache flush is done. I’m absolutely not sure that this is correct, but I feel that the varnish cache is flushed everytime a user is logging on the magento backend.. would it be possible ? Does anybody have a list of the operations that can lead to this flush?

Thanks for now 🙂

Magento hosting recommendation given requirements

I’m looking to host a Magento multi-site solution in Europe.

u/shivbhadra has got an excellent recommendation here but the thread is about two years old so things might have changed.

The dimensioning is described below on a very high level scale.

There will be around 20 – 30 cloned e-shops sharing the same Magento installation and they will have max 20-30 products each.

I anticipate that at most, I will have 200 active users during the busiest hour of the year, and an total of 10 concurent system users at the busiest hour of the day give or take.

I am looking for something cheap for the beginning, (sub 500euros per year) with decent performance, but if the business does well, I am looking at upgrading to a better tier or a completely different solution.

Do you guys have something to suggest?

Product Page Banner

Hi,

When there’s an ongoing campaign, I add a banner inside each campaign product page to drive traffic to all of our deals. It’s really frustrating however since I’m putting each html img code with href etc. in each product and removing it after each campaign.

Does anyone know of any solutions that would make this task more effecient and easier? Really appreciate any suggestions! Thanks 🙂

2.4.2p1 to 2.4.5 – upgrade process practicalities?

We have a Magento 2.4.2p1 site that needs upgrading to 2.4.4 at least, probably 2.4.5. I understand this is a big upgrade involving PHP upgrades and more. I’ve seen posts here that talk about at least 50 hours work, if not 150. We’re a small agency and there is currently only one of me with any experience with Magento. So I’m trying to do a bit of research so I know what’s involved.

Currently we have the live site and a test backup site. I was planning on doing the upgrade on the test site to start with to see how it goes. Then when I have worked out the gotchas, do it on live. However I can’t really afford to spend at least 50 hours, twice! on this. The client also can’t afford to have their site shut down for a week or more. But I’m assuming we can’t just do updates on the test site and then point to live database as I’m sure there will be changes to the database as well? There are a fair few extensions that would need to be upgraded too I’m assuming – some not too vital but some are important in terms of integration with a warehouse etc so can’t be not working on a production site for too long

So how do people usually actually do this – what would be your process for a big upgrade?

Thanks 🙂

Magento Developers: Where and How to Find Them

No Magento store owner can get the store up and running quickly. Worse, even a simple issue that affects the user experience or store operations can have a strong impact on results. So, as soon as a problem is detected, the customer goes into firefighting mode, which requires a Magento developer or a Magento company.

Common Magento issues that may arise from time to time are:

  1. Management issues on the dashboard

  2. Extension installation issues

  3. Platform update issues and topics

  4. Page promotion

  5. Magento Store Configuration (requires coding)

Business owners struggle to find the best developer to solve these problems. But they will negotiate a price, list their needs, and once all that is done, they will buy the equipment that the developer will need to do the job properly.

Thumbnail image wont display

I use magento 2.3.3. I have a product that used to display the thumbnail on the front end but now that I’ve changed the image it wont display any thumbnail. I’ve tried to reduce file size and reuploaded them over and over.

Im not the website developer, only the graphic designer but this needs to be fixed and our web developer wont get on it. I believe its a cache issue but I havnt looked into it much as I dont want to effect the rest of the site.

what can i do?

Redis with Full page cache module enabled : Full of page blocks in the DB

Hello ! I found something interesting after installing the full page cache module for Magento 2.4.2 and I would like to have your suggestions on that point .

Since I’ve launched the full page cache process, the Redis DB is always full (I put something like 20GB in maxmemory and I’m quickly reaching this limit ! Normally I’ve max 2GB when the full page cache is disabled) . I used redis-cli and UI tools to find what is filling the RAM and I found that there’s a huge amount of blocks filling Redis.

I’m a little bit confused : is it fully normal that there’re so many blocks ? Is there a way to disable this without impacting the rendering speed ?

Thanks for now 🙂

Any recommendations for Magento 2 ecommerce analytics without Google Analytics?

Up till now we have used Google UA together with the Weltpixel Enhanced Ecommerce extension for analytics. Since we have switched on a cookie consent bar, as required by GDPR, we are now missing 2/3 of our traffic … and the rest gets attributed incorrectly to a large extend. As a result, we need to find a new solution … not building on Google Analytics ….

We have looked into several extensions, like
https://mirasvit.com/magento-2-extensions/advanced-reports.html
https://aheadworks.com/advanced-reports-extension-for-magento-2
https://amasty.com/advanced-reports-for-magento-2.html

These extensions provide a lot that would satisfy our analytics needs … however – as far as we could judge – one thing is missing in all of them: tracking users according the traffic source and consequent performance data. We would be interested in the differences of different traffic (traffic coming from paid/organic search, paid/organic social media, referrals, newsletter, etc.) on different performance indicators (e.g. add to cart, abandoned cart, completed purchases).

Could anyone provide a recommendations for an analytics solution that would satisfy our needs?

Magento 2 – How to keep already built cache

Greetings,

I found out that on first visit on category page, Magento 2 cache takes it’s time on the first run, which is expected. After the first run it works great from different locations and devices. As is expected.

Then if we just change 1 small thing on one product in that category page, the entire page goes slow and cache again needs to be rebuilt.

How can I say to Magento that it should leave all .html pages alone (after first rebuild) until we decide it is time to clear and flush cache?
