Frequently Asked Questions

Our license allows you to use your extension on a single installation of Magento. The license is not limited to one domain, but to one instance of Magento. In other words, if you use several domains (multi-site) on the same instance of Magento, you can use the normal license. If you need to use your extension several times, for several of your sites, you will have to buy a license for each of them. However, you can install the extension on more than one instance of Magento if you use them for development and/or validation, and if they are closed to the public.

As an Adobe Solution Partner, we develop our extensions according to Adobe's writing and design standards.
However, if our solution conflicts with an existing third-party extension on your environment, please contact us via the helpdesk.

In the meantime, here are some quick fixes that we invite you to try:

• Disable the conflicting module: Check if the functionality of the third-party module is necessary for your business.
  • Most of the time, conflicting extensions have similar functionality. And are therefore redundant with those of our modules.
  • There are also cases where third-party modules have features that are no longer supported in the latest versions of Magento. In this case, the best is to disable them:

bin/magento module:disable [-c|--clear-static-content] [-f|--force] [--all] <module-list>

 

• Modify module loading order: It is also possible to resolve conflicts by modifying the module loading order using the Magento "/etc/module.xml" configuration file.
  For example, if a Blackbird module needs to be loaded after a third party module, it is possible to define it in the "/etc/module.xml" file of the project: 

config>  <module>   <Blackbird_X>    <sequence>      <Company_Module/>    </sequence>   </Blackbird_X>  </module> </config>

 

• Check the changelog of the extension: we invite you to consult the changelog, available for each extension via the presentation page of the extension on our store, in order to check the last modifications and evolutions made.

 

• Update your extension: It is possible that a new version of your extension is available and that updating it will solve your current problem. We therefore invite you to go to your customer area and install the latest version using composer or download the corresponding zip file. The online documentation, available on the presentation page of the extension on our store, will explain you step by step how to proceed to the update.

 

The changes from Magento 1 to Magento 2 are major. We had to rewrite entirely our extension to make it compatible and functional with Magento 2, that's why it is not a simple upgrade.
