This article is mostly general php and not strictly Symfony2, but sometimes you will find this useful in your project.

Just to be clear: there is native Symfony 2 way to do that with using:

CheckItOut, alternative checkout for Magento

If for some reason you are not a big fan of Magento’s default One Page Checkout concept / workflow, it might be worth checking out alternative. Usually these alternatives come in a form of so called “one step checkout” where main difference is that entire customer data / payment data / shipment data is displayed not just on one page, but in one “piece”. Why is this important? Well, it usually leads to a bit better user experience. Even a fraction better user experience can make a difference between new order and abandoned cart. No one likes abandoned carts :) . Read more

Magento Trusted Extensions

About ten months ago I wrote an article titled Magento Extensions Quality Assurance Certification. If you read it, then you know it was a pure result of my imagination.

Certification program that would be in charge of checking several important parts of your extension inner working, etc. All with the final goal of classifying your extension as safe. Read more

New Magento Sample Data

New Magento Sample Data

Official Magento sample data is a bit old (Magento 1.2) and it takes too much time to install new Magento over them, since installation is updating too many tables at once. Also, there are some tables not present in default CE version, so we thought it would be great idea to update and clean them up a bit.
