A while ago we took over a Magento 1 shop that was migrated over to Magento 2. Some products and categories has a “.html.html” url postfix and the merchant wanted to have this fixed. When data was migrated from Magento 1 shop, the url keys came with ".html" suffix. On Magento 2, you have url_key and url_path attributes that help creating the urls for products and categories. Since the url_key attribute contained the “.html” postfix and url_path appended an additional “.html” postfix, the source of the problem was found.

After upgrading a Magento 2.1 instance to Magento 2.4, I realized some problems with serialized data. In Magento 2.1 PHPs serialize() and unserialize() functions have been used whilst in Magento 2.2 the default serialization uses json_encode() and json_decode().

Recently, we took over a Magento 2 project where data was migrated from an older Magento 1 instance. The merchant complained that after the migration some customers are not able to log in anymore. Even a password reset did not work.

Whilst I migrated from Linux to Windows and WSL 2 more than a year ago, I had a plan to install any development-related tools like Git or PHPStorm in WSL2. PHPStorm worked quite ok in WSL 2 except that filesystem changes (e.g. adding or removing files) made directly in WSL 2 were not properly recognized by PHPStorm. Even triggering a manual refresh from the disk did not always work. That made me install PHPStorm on Windows and open PHP projects via the WSL 2 integration of PHPStorm. That works better but still has its issues with larger projects.
