Shopware 6.6.0.0

Guide for the Shopware Major Release of 2024

As in every annual major release of Shopware, Shopware version 6.6 also includes exciting innovations but also so-called breaking changes - this is part of Shopware's update strategy.

After the update

Adjust default layout for product pages

In addition to the shopping experience layouts for product pages that Shopware subsequently implements, there is a standard product page in all Shopware versions < 6.6. This standard product page was not part of the shopping experiences and was always used when no shopping experience layout was assigned for product pages. This was the predominantly used representation of the product page so far.

With Shopware 6.6, this logic changes completely and adapts to the behavior of category page layouts. The standard product page is replaced by the standard product page layout of the shopping experiences, which is now automatically assigned to all products. The theme standard view of the product page is replaced by the Default product page Layout of the shopping experiences.

The product page of your shop will therefore change in the display of the storefront until you have adjusted the product page layout of the shopping experiences.

Theme default layout (< 6.6)

In the default product detail layout of the theme, the product name is placed in the buy box.

Theme Standard Ansicht

Shopping experience default layout (>= 6.6)

In the shopping experience default layout of the product, the headline of the product is positioned horizontally above the gallery and buy box.

To change the layout of any product, you can click on Assign layout (2) in the Layout (1) tab of the product configuration and assign a layout.

To restore the original display, you can create your own layout for the product page. We'll show you how to do this in just a few steps:
