• Shop shopware Connect hint during checkout: Show a hint that the current product is a shopware Connect product
• Set "noindex" meta tag: Set "noindex" tag for shopware Connect products so that search engines don't find duplicate content with on other shops with the same product

FromShop

The backend module

...

ToShop

Dispatch

By default any dispatch can be used with shopware Connect. You might want to disable some dispatches, however. In order to do so, just open Settings->Shipping and edit the shipping type you want to disable. In the "advanced configuration" you can now uncheck "Allow with shopware Connect".

Updating

In the shopware Connect plugin configuration, for prices, names, longDescription, shortDescription and images the update behaviour can be configured:

• Always overwrite with the data from fromShop
• Always manage by hand

This is the global configuration you can overwrite or inherit this configuration on per-product base

Importing images

Images can be directly imported whenever a new product is transfered to the shop. This will, however, massively slow down the actual import. shopware Connect will automatically register a CronJob so images can automatically imported via the default shopware cronjob. In order to test this, you can just call http://www.your-shop.com/backend/cron.

Prices

• If the fromShop configured fixedPrices, prices will always be imported and cannot be modified in the local shop
• If the fromShop configured default prices, toShop can configure if prices should be overwritten or managed by hand

Images

• Manually added images will never be removed
• In "overwrite" mode, updates will always recreate all the shopware Connect images which have changed since the last update
• In "non-overwrite" mode, images will imported only once at initial import

Manipulating and extending the plugin

Overwriting parts of the plugin will make the plugin unable to be updated, so it is best practice to use a seperate custom plugin, that makes use of events and hooks, to extend the Shopware Connect Plugin. We are using the same kind of events as Shopware, so you can define listeners in the exact same way.

Events

The SDK is accessed by RPC calls over a single route, this is handled by the Connect Gateway. We will throw events before the request is handled, and after it has been handled. These are the two event names:

• 'Shopware_Connect_SDK_Handle_Before'
• 'Shopware_Connect_SDK_Handle_After'

Both events will receive the request as their first parameter. The request contains the XML document that is used by the RPC call. It contains the service and the command that will be executed. You can find the available services and commands in the DependencyResolver in the Plugin Library.

The After Event will also contain the response that will be sent back to Connect. The Events will be fired on any time Connect calls the shop for any function.
