Also let's add back the "Create a Brevo account" block with the "Create free account" button (pointing to https://get.brevo.com/5f897rrc6cwa) the same way like it's been done in the Sendinblue plugin. Now it's not shown in Brevo. Insert it right before the "API v3 key" input:

Add a way to keep plugin data when uninstalling

version: 4.60

We need a generic way to keep plugin data when uninstalling to avoid creating such a method in each plugin.

Suggestion: https://www..com/boards/topic/84184/remove-all-plugin-tables-on-plugin-uninstall-setting

Performance issue - NopResourceDisplayNameAttribute uses async methods synchronously - which leads to threadpool starvation in high traffic

version:
4.5, 4.6

Steps to reproduce the problem:
We noticed issue in our production enviornment that site becomes unresponsive in some peek load, we have captured memory dump in the event scenario and during analysis found that many threads are waiting in NopResourceDisplayNameAttribute.DisplayName.get()

Problem is DisplayName property calls LocalizationService.GetResourceAsync() and waits for result

I think possible solution could be to not load localized resource from the NopResourceDisplayNameAttribute.DisplayName instead handel it from NopLabelTagHelper.ProcessAsync so that it keeps all async stack

Elasticsearch search

Recently we've already introduced the ISearchPluginManager and search providers out of the box. It's used in the "SearchProductsAsync" method of "ProductService". So we can implement this full-text search engine out of the box quite easily.

This task does not require any additional details.

Implement Multi-Language Support

Expand the reach of the e-commerce platform by implementing multi-language support. This feature allows users to browse and shop in their preferred language, improving accessibility and user satisfaction.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Access the website.
2. Navigate to the language settings or options.
3. Observe the absence of multi-language support.
4. Try to change the language preference.
5. Notice the lack of language options or translations.

Add setting to log honeypot detection entries

version: 4.60

How can we control the logging going on from Honeypot? I had to turn it on and also recapcha v3 as it didn't take long for bots to attack my contact us form, etc. Now that I have honeypot in use and recaptcha v3 it appears to mitigate it but I'm getting a ton of log entries from this honeypot / bot. How can I disable logging for bots?

Source: https://www..com/boards/topic/98627/honeypot-clogging-up-log-with-bot-entries

Let's add an advanced (without UI) setting LogHoneypotDetection in SecuritySettings and log entries only if this setting is enabled.

Develop an order tracking system that allows users to track the status of their orders from placement to delivery.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Log in to the application with a user account.
2. Place an order for one or more products.
3. Navigate to the order tracking page to view the status of the order.

1. Navigate to the application's homepage.
2. Click on the 'Sign Up' or 'Log In' button.
3. Fill in the required details and submit the form.

Enhance Product Filtering Options

The current product filtering options are limited, making it challenging for users to narrow down their product search. Enhance the filtering options by adding additional criteria such as brand, size, color, and price range.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Navigate to the product list page.
2. Observe the existing filtering options.
3. Try to filter products based on specific criteria.
4. Notice the limitations in the available filtering options.
5. Attempt to narrow down the product search with additional criteria.

Allow to filter message templates by email accounts

There's no way to see what message templates are assigned to an email without clicking into each message template, or using the database directly.

Let's add a new filter to the "Message templates" page.
Name: "Email account".
Possible values: "All" and a list of email accounts. These email accounts will be displayed in the following format - Email display name (Email address) - the same way as they are displayed now on a message template details page

We should display this dropdownlist when a store has two or more email accounts

Implement Multi-Currency Support

Allow users to view prices in multiple currencies. Implement multi-currency support.

RTL Support

RTL Is not Supported by languages and layout is not switching when changing language

Unify ProductPriceModel from ProductDetailsModel and ProductOverviewModel

version:
4.60.6

Steps to reproduce the problem:
none

---

Unify ProductPriceModel from ProductDetailsModel and ProductOverviewModel to have a single price calculation method.

Resolve Payment Gateway Integration Issue

Users are experiencing issues with the payment gateway integration. Investigate and resolve.

Implement Product Sorting Feature

Currently, the product list page does not have sorting options, making it difficult for users to find products based on their preferences. Implement a sorting feature that allows users to sort products by price, popularity, or other relevant criteria.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Navigate to the product list page.
2. Observe the absence of sorting options.
3. Try to find products based on specific criteria.
4. Notice the difficulty in finding desired products due to the lack of sorting functionality.

Forum permissions - Allow Customer to Create Post

I'd like to utilize the forum a little differently, where only administrators/forum mods can make posts and customers and guests are read-only.

Under /Admin/Setting/Forum I'd like to add the setting Allow Customer to create posts to enable/disable this functionality.
Or, add permissions to ACL rules /Admin/Security/Permissions so that the forum permissions can be assigned to any role.

Would you up-stream either of these changes?

Implement exception handling when using search providers

version: develop

Currently SearchProductsAsync method of ProductService doesn't handle any exceptions thrown by search providers (see https://github.com/nopSolutions//blob/develop/src/Libraries/Nop.Services/Catalog/ProductService.cs#L910).

Let's add a setting indicating whether to return default search results when a search provider throws an exception

Add Wishlist Feature

Implement a wishlist feature to allow users to save their favorite products for future reference.

Zettle Inventory doubling on initial synchronization when Inventory Tracking Enabled

version: 4.70

Using nop 4.70 with the zettle plugin.

When adding new inventory items (sync from Nop to zettle) with inventory tracking enabled, the inventory doubles due to the webhook being called to update inventory after creation.

I have added logging into the relevant sections to help me debug since this is an active site that I am unable to connect a debugger to.

This product I am trying to sync has an inventory level of 17.

Here is the data below:

Misc.Zettle information.
Synchronization started at 5:56:44 PM UTC
Add discounts...
Delete products...
  Also delete all existing library items before importing products
Change images...
Update inventory tracking...
Create and update products...
  Prepare 3 records to import
  Import 3 products (#7, #9, #10)
    Import (9164dece-da50-11ee-8f7f-3d465ce14ec0) created at 5:56:46 PM
Synchronization finished at 5:56:46 PM UTC

Then a product creation webhook occurs:

{
  "productUuid": "88398349-da50-11ee-aaa5-074994edb3be",
  "trackingStatusChange": "START_TRACKING",
  "variantChanges": [
    {
      "fromLocationUuid": "35c1f814-d8dd-11ee-80f2-39f9cbd7af56",
      "toLocationUuid": "35c1f856-d8dd-11ee-9912-4e467e438357",
      "variantUuid": "8839836c-da50-11ee-aaa5-074994edb3be",
      "change": 17
    }
  ]
}

UpdateInventoryBalanceAsync is called by webhook "ProductCreated"

{
  "productChanges": [
    {
      "productUuid": "88398349-da50-11ee-aaa5-074994edb3be",
      "trackingStatusChange": "START_TRACKING",
      "variantChanges": [
        {
          "fromLocationUuid": "35c1f814-d8dd-11ee-80f2-39f9cbd7af56",
          "toLocationUuid": "35c1f856-d8dd-11ee-9912-4e467e438357",
          "variantUuid": "8839836c-da50-11ee-aaa5-074994edb3be",
          "change": 17
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
  "returnBalanceForLocationUuid": "35c1f856-d8dd-11ee-9912-4e467e438357",
  "externalUuid": "925991aa-da50-11ee-aaa5-074994edb3be"
}

The problem appears to be the below item, webhook "InventoryBalanceChanged"

{
  "externalUuid": "925991aa-da50-11ee-aaa5-074994edb3be",
  "balanceBefore": [
    {
      "locationUuid": "35c1f856-d8dd-11ee-9912-4e467e438357",
      "productUuid": "88398349-da50-11ee-aaa5-074994edb3be",
      "variantUuid": "8839836c-da50-11ee-aaa5-074994edb3be",
      "balance": 0,
      "created": "2024-03-04T17:56:46.779+00:00"
    }
  ],
  "balanceAfter": [
    {
      "locationUuid": "35c1f856-d8dd-11ee-9912-4e467e438357",
      "productUuid": "88398349-da50-11ee-aaa5-074994edb3be",
      "variantUuid": "8839836c-da50-11ee-aaa5-074994edb3be",
      "balance": 17,
      "created": "2024-03-04T17:56:48.661+00:00"
    }
  ],
  "updated": {
    "timestamp": "2024-03-04T17:56:48.661+00:00"
  },
  "error": null,
  "error_description": null,
  "developerMessage": null
}

The issue:
_zettleSettings.InventoryTrackingIds

This object is newed up each time a new thread gets spawned. This is supposed to be the repository for any external tracking GUID's that are transmitted from zettle to nop. Since there are multiple items synced, multiple threads get spawned, and as a result the memory space for each instance of _zettleSettings.InventoryTrackingIds is not shared across requests.

These id's are stored in the database under table setting (zettlesettings.inventorytrackingids)
The issue here is that since the object is not shared across requests, this database location is overwritten constantly without concurrency.

If three products get added in bulk, three "InventoryBalanceChanged" webhook requests get fired, and each request only knows of it's own tracking id. not the other two leading to a loss of concurrent data.

I have re-worked this section to prevent this from occurring. I will submit a PR.

Payment Gateway Integration

Need To added payment gateways integration as currently it's only pay on receive

RoxyFileman dies on interpreting an invalid image

version: 4.60.5

Steps to reproduce the problem:

1. Create an empty file in wwwroot/images/uploaded
2. Rename it to resemble an image file (e.g. test.png)
3. Try to use an image uploader in any WYSIWYG

RoxyFileman will stop working when this happens, as the call on RoxyFilemanFileProvider.cs#396 returns null and the next line throws an exception.

Expected behavior:

• Do not list invalid images;
  or
• List invalid images with some warning;
  or
• Send a meaningful error message containing the problematic file's path relative to RoxyFileman root.

Multi Theme Support

is it possible to add ability to allow users to add his own theme?

More options on "Tax display type". Allow to display both (with and without tax)

version:
4.60.6

Steps to reproduce the problem:
none

---

Now you can show only prices w/ or w/o tax. Can we have:

• w/ tax
• w/o tax
• both - w/ tax first
• both - w/o tax first

Fix Search Results Pagination Bug

Pagination is not working correctly on the search results page. Investigate and fix the pagination bug.

Question about Returns Policy

Seek information on the returns policy and the process for returning purchased items.

Implement Multi-Language Support

Add support for multiple languages to cater to users from diverse linguistic backgrounds and expand the application's reach.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Navigate to the application's settings or preferences page.
2. Locate the language settings section.
3. Select a different language from the available options and save the changes.

Do not validate model when changing password in admin area

version: 4.60

When attempting to change a customer's password in the backend, a bug has been identified. If you try to click on "change password" in the customers backend with an empty required field, such as "Company Name," the page simply refreshes without altering the password, and no error message is displayed. It leads to confusion as users might expect a notification regarding the missing information.

However, upon providing the necessary information in the required field and then attempting to change the password, the operation is successful, and a green success message is displayed as expected.

Additionally, when attempting to save the customer without making any changes, the system correctly displays an error message, indicating a discrepancy in behavior when compared to the password change scenario.

This inconsistency in error handling poses a usability and feedback challenge for users. The expected behavior is to receive an error message when attempting to change the password with a missing required field, similar to the behavior observed when saving the customer without any changes, or to be able to change the password without the need to check for required fields.

Please investigate and address this issue promptly to ensure a seamless and reliable user experience.

Source: https://www..com/boards/topic/98673/issue-with-password-change-in-backend-when-required-field-eg-company-name-is-empty

We already do it for EmailAccount password.
Also, let's map a password from the entity to the model, but hide it by *, like for EmailAccount.
