Examining extensions or plugins

In order to check whether an error or problem is caused by a specific extension (plugin or app), please follow the steps below:

Extensions can be examined in 3 steps:

  1. Deactivate extensions (do not uninstall!)

  2. Clear the Shopware cache

  3. Clear the browser cache

Examining extensions

  1. Open the administration of your shop

  2. Deactivate extensions:

    1. Navigate via the main navigation to the Extension Management ("Extensions" => "My extensions" => Tab "Apps")

    2. Deactivate (do not uninstall!) all active extensions here

  3. Clear Shopware cache (not available in the cloud):

    1. Then navigate via the main navigation to the section "Cache & Indixes" ("Settings" => "System")

    2. Click on "Clear caches"

    3. The Shopware cache will now be cleared...

  4. Reload website and browser cache:

    • After that, reload the page where the problem occurred in your web browser with a cache refresh:

      • Windows: Ctrl + F5

      • Mac: Command (⌘) + Shift (⇧) + R or Command (⌘) + Option/Alt (⌥) + R

Does the problem no longer occur?

If the problem does not occur anymore, ThemeWare® is not the cause and there is a problem with an extension (plugin or app).
