Changelog¶

All notable changes to the Tax calculator and shipping country switch plugin for end users.

[5.1.0] - 2026-04-15¶

✨ New Features¶

Country selection popup on first visit (PAngV compliance): First-time visitors now see a blocking popup asking for their delivery country before any prices are rendered. This ensures the displayed gross price matches the price the customer pays at checkout — a legal requirement under the German Preisangabenverordnung.
Optional GeoIP pre-selection: If you supply a MaxMind GeoLite2-Country database, the popup pre-selects the visitor's country automatically. Falls back silently to the sales channel default when GeoIP is disabled, the database is missing, or the detected country is not shippable.
Checkout address mismatch reconciliation: If a customer's shipping address country differs from the country they selected in the popup, prices and the country cookie are automatically reconciled at /checkout/confirm with a visible info notice.
Static fallback hint: When the popup is disabled, a small notice near the country widget reminds visitors that prices reflect the currently selected country.
Automatic composer install for dependencies: The plugin's executeComposerCommands() is now enabled, so Shopware installs the new GeoIP library automatically during plugin install or update — no manual composer require needed.

🔧 Improvements¶

Decoupled popup from country widget toggle: The popup can now be used independently of the header country switcher. You can enable one without the other.
Stale cookie guard: If the persisted country cookie points to a country that is no longer shippable (because the sales channel configuration changed), the cookie is cleared automatically and the popup re-appears.
Shopware 6.6 and 6.7 parity: The popup data is attached via StorefrontRenderEvent, which works consistently on both majors — 6.7 loads the header via an ESI sub-request where the previous pagelet path was not available.

⚙️ Configuration¶

New settings in the plugin configuration under Country popup:

Show country selection popup on first visit — toggle
Country cookie lifetime (days) — default 30
Enable GeoIP pre-selection — toggle
Absolute path to GeoLite2-Country.mmdb — merchant-supplied path

[5.0.0] - Unreleased¶

✨ New Features¶

One codebase for Shopware 6.6 and 6.7: Starting with this version, the plugin supports both Shopware majors from a single installation. You no longer need to switch between plugin versions when upgrading Shopware.
Automated updates via GitHub Actions: New versions are validated, built, and uploaded to the Shopware Store automatically — faster bug-fix cycles.
Conventional changelog: Future versions generate their changelog automatically from commit messages.

🔧 Improvements¶

More robust country detection: The target country lookup in the cart, shipping, and product price path now uses a more compatible Shopware call that works reliably on both majors.
More stable factory integration: The internal integration with Shopware's sales channel context layer was migrated to the official adapter architecture — you benefit from more stable upgrades for future Shopware versions.

⚠️ Important Changes¶

Shopware 6.5 is no longer supported: If you are still on Shopware 6.5, please stay on plugin version 2.x. Version 5.0.0 requires at least Shopware 6.6.
Minimum PHP version: 8.2 or higher — make sure your server meets the requirement.
