Release Notes

Deposits & Damage Waiver Extension 1.0.0 Released September 17, 2026 #

• New featureFirst release of salesigniter/waiverdamage, an optional extension that adds refundable security deposits and damage waivers to a rental order. It is included with Rental Booking Pro, and requires version 1.2.197 or later of the rental extension
• New featureSecurity deposits. Charged with the order so that they can be refunded, on their own line, not taxed by default. Priced as a flat amount, a percentage of the rental charge or an amount per day, optionally per unit rather than per line, with a minimum and a maximum
• New featureReleasing a deposit from the order page. Give the whole balance back, or give part of it back and keep the rest against damage or a late return. Keeping any of it requires a reason, which is stored on the order rather than left to somebody’s memory
• New featureOr release it on a schedule – a set number of days after the hire comes back, counted from the return or from the order date. The automatic release only ever fires once every unit on the order has been returned; anything still out, overdue or lost keeps its deposit until a person decides
• New featureDamage waivers on the product page. Offered as mandatory, optional and pre-ticked, optional and unticked, or not at all. Priced as a percentage of the rental charge or a flat amount per item, per day or per order. It is revenue, so it is taxable by default, has its own tax class, and is non-refundable unless you allow refunds
• New featureThe customer is shown the rule rather than a figure – "10% of the rental charge" – because on a percentage waiver the amount is not knowable until the hire dates are picked. The accept or decline decision is recorded on the order and survives admin order edit, reorder, a request for quote and extending a live hire
• New featurePer-product overrides on the product’s Rental group: deposit type, waiver type and how the waiver is offered. Each defaults to Use config and follows the store setting. Setting one to None is different – the product actively opts out and does not fall back, which is how a hire whose damage risk is covered elsewhere escapes a charge the shop applies everywhere else
• ChangeThe rental extension’s old Use Global Config for Damage Waiver Amount switch is superseded by the new waiver type attribute. Every product is migrated once on upgrade, and the migration only fills in products that have no value of their own, so a deliberate choice is never overwritten
• Upgrade noteInstalling the extension changes nothing on your existing orders: the deposit panel renders only on an order that actually has a deposit
• Upgrade noteA refund the gateway keeps refusing stops after a configurable number of attempts and is parked for a human, rather than being retried forever
• Known limitationA damage waiver limits what a customer owes for accidental damage under your hire contract. It is not insurance, the default product-page wording says so, and selling insurance is regulated in most countries. Note also that an optional paid extra that arrives pre-ticked is restricted for consumer sales in the EU and the UK – that mode is there for shops hiring to trade customers

Version 1.2.199 Released September 15, 2026 #

• SecurityNine unauthenticated inventory endpoints have been removed. They sat on the public rental route with no login and no permission check, so anyone who knew the address could rebuild a single product’s inventory, rebuild every rental product’s inventory – a response that also listed the whole catalogue back to the caller – or alter early-return data. Nothing in the extension linked to any of them
• SecurityThe browser-triggered inventory update behind the checkout success page and the admin order view is gone too. It swept every unreserved order on each of those page views, from the same unauthenticated route. Placing an order has reserved its inventory immediately since 1.2.197, so it bought nothing; the cron remains as a reconciler and still logs any order it has to catch up on
• FixA whole-day hire gave its last day back too early. Reading a date-only rental returned its end as midnight at the start of the last day rather than the end of it, so the calendar showed that day as free while the kit was still out with a customer. One-day hires were unaffected, which is why this survived: it only showed on rentals of two days or more
• FixRentals > Dashboard rendered its frame and no panels. The minifier Magento’s static content deploy uses could not parse one line of the dashboard script, and a file it cannot minify is skipped silently while the deploy still reports success – so the page shipped fully styled, completely empty, and with nothing in any log
• OptimizationIndexes on the columns every report, scan and join actually filters on. Availability lookups, the serial-number lookup behind a barcode scan (which was reading the whole fleet on every scan), the report joins and the per-source columns all had none. Four of them had to be converted from text to varchar first, which is lossless here – the longest value measured across two live installs was twelve characters
• ChangeThe legacy inventory grid table left behind by an inventory cache that no longer exists is dropped on upgrade. It was empty on every install checked, and nothing had read or written it for several releases
• Upgrade noteAfter deploying, run bin/magento setup:upgrade and redeploy static content – the dashboard fix is a static file, so the dashboard stays blank until the deploy is run again

Version 1.2.198 Released September 13, 2026 #

• New featureA GraphQL API, on Magento’s own /graphql endpoint – there is no second endpoint and nothing to switch on. Storefront fields cover availability, rental pricing and the calendar; back-office fields cover serial numbers, bookings, reservations and orders
• New featureThe back-office fields are gated by the permissions you already have. An admin or integration bearer token that reaches /rest/V1 reaches these fields, checked against the same ACL resources; storefront fields stay open
• FixRental products now resolve in Magento’s standard products query. Without a concrete GraphQL type for the rental product type a mixed catalogue returned null for every rental row, which is exactly the products the extension sells
• FixUtilization report: serial numbers were measured against the wrong capacity. Once one unit had an acquisition date inside the reporting period, every unit listed after it was divided by that unit’s shortened capacity and read far too high. Each unit is now measured on its own
• FixA unit’s capacity ran to the end of its last booking rather than the end of the report, so a unit that sat idle for the rest of the period still read as fully used, and the answer changed with the order the bookings happened to be read in
• FixUsage and capacity are now measured over the same window. With the calculation method set to Product, capacity started at the acquisition date while the hires were still counted over the whole period, so anything bought recently could report well over 100% utilized
• ImprovementUnits that never went out now appear on the report, at 0%. The serial rows were built from what had been shipped, so the one unit worth knowing about – the one earning nothing – was the one you could not see. In the report below, GENI-003 is a personnel lift that has not left the yard all year
• FixThe report no longer stops dead on a product with no rental stock, or on a report whose start and end are the same day. Both raised a division by zero that ended the run and left the report stuck on "running" for good. A product that cannot be measured is now logged and skipped, and the report always finishes
• OptimizationThe serial list for a product is read once instead of once per unit per booking – thousands of queries for a busy product, and most of the reason the report takes as long as it does to build
• Upgrade noteThe maintenance ticket fields live in the Maintenance extension, whose 1.2.48 release requires this version or newer

Version 1.2.197 Released September 11, 2026 #

• New featureFour storefront date pickers, chosen with one new Date Picker setting under Stores > Configuration > Sales Igniter > Rental > Calendar Styler: In Line Range Picker (the new default), Popup Range Picker, Separate Date Pickers, and Previous Date Picker – the jQuery UI calendar that shipped before this release, kept unchanged so you can rule the new one out if anything misbehaves
• ChangeThe new Date Picker setting replaces the old Calendar Engine and Always Show Calendar settings. Every store that had either of those is migrated to the equivalent picker on upgrade, so no store changes calendar by itself. The per product "Show the calendar in line" attribute is unchanged and still overrides the store setting
• New featureA guided booking flow on the two range pickers: pick-up date, then pick-up time, then return date, then return time, one step at a time, with each answered step revealing the next. A progress row names the steps, shows what has been chosen, and lets the customer click back to change one, which clears anything that depended on it. Steps are only offered for decisions the customer actually makes, so a date-only product asks for two and a fixed length product asks only for the start
• OptimizationMoving between days in the calendar no longer makes an availability round trip to the server – everything the calendar needs is sent with the page
• New featureNew Calendar Styler settings group with a live, interactive preview of the real calendar beside the fields: style (airy, card, bold or classic), main colour with presets, corner radius, months shown, time slot interval, whether to show the progress row, the units left in each day, and the legend. The Date Picker and Style are chosen from picture cards that show what each option looks like, and the preview can be switched between a product column width and full width
• ImprovementTime of day is now a slot grid rather than a dropdown: the chosen day’s times at your configured interval, grouped under Morning, Afternoon and Evening, with the store hours in the heading
• New featureA greyed time slot now says why it is greyed – Booked for someone else’s reservation, Disabled for an admin closure, before pick-up on a same day return, or too short for the minimum rental period
• FixThe old jQuery timepicker dropdown is removed from the new pickers. It was also the cause of a Maximum call stack size exceeded crash that stopped the calendar initialising after repeated date or quantity changes, leaving a page that looked normal but had no working calendar
• ChangeNumber of months shown is now a single setting of 1, 2 or 3. Stores that stored the old rows and columns pair are migrated automatically, and two or three months scroll sideways rather than being clipped when the product column is narrow
• New featureRight to left locale support. The calendar now renders right to left in RTL locales, including popup calendars, which previously rendered left to right with Sunday on the left while the inline calendar beside them was correct
• FixThe day grid is now fluid instead of a fixed pixel width, fixing the Saturday column being cut off on custom skins, corner radii and month counts
• OptimizationRewritten availability engine. Availability is now derived on read from the reservations table with a date windowed query and a sweep line builder, instead of a serialized inventory array cached per product. The rental cache type, its cron job and its console command are gone. This also fixes a calendar that could show a booked day as free for up to 24 hours, because the old cache was only invalidated when a product was saved and never when a reservation was written
• New featureNew Rentals > Dashboard: units going out, due back, overdue and currently out for any chosen day, the next 7 days, an overdue list oldest first, and a money card with revenue this month, the last 30 days against the previous 30, the average rental order, orders awaiting payment, a 12 week paid against ordered chart, and the top five products by revenue. The whole page arrives in one request, so stepping a day or changing source is a single round trip
• ImprovementRebuilt Inventory Availability report on the standard Magento data grid toolbar: keyword search, a filters popover, removable filter chips, a columns popover, paging, and CSV export. Day, week, month and 90 day views, a heat map over the booked share with distinct sold out and overbooked states, sticky product and day headers, a hover card with the reserved breakdown by order, manual, maintenance and RFQ, and full keyboard navigation
• ImprovementRebuilt Rental Calendar report. The new default view is Out / In, showing per day how many units go out and come back, the orders behind them and any overdue units, with a day popover listing every pick-up and return with Send and Return actions. By order, week and timeline by product views are also there, and the FullCalendar library it used to load is removed entirely
• ImprovementRebuilt Serial Number report as Serial Numbers: one row per physical unit, with a bar for each booking labelled with the order and customer, so a row reads without a click. Adds a retired status, bulk send, return, new maintenance ticket and change status actions, a serial record drawer with cost, acquisition, utilisation and booking history, and a CSV export
• FixFixes found while rebuilding that report: it rendered blank on arrival because the first request carried no source or stock scope, the source and stock filters were swapped so a source filter silently became a stock filter, and the stored serial status and maintenance ticket were ignored so a workshop hold looked identical to a customer booking
• OptimizationFirst phases of removing the HTML round trip plugin, which re-parsed rendered HTML on every block of every page. Each behaviour that has been replaced keeps its own compatibility switch under Stores > Configuration > Sales Igniter Rental > Theme Compatibility, all off by default, so a heavily customised theme can put any one of them back. Measured on the admin order view, 0.421s down to 0.208s; the product page is 37ms faster and the category page 57ms faster
• ChangeRental date storage moves to the MySQL date format. The conversion is scheduled by the upgrade and runs on the next cron passes in bounded chunks, so nothing long runs inside setup:upgrade. To convert immediately instead, run bin/magento salesigniter:rental:migrate-dates –dry-run and then without the flag. It is idempotent and one way, and any row it cannot parse is reported and left untouched
• New featureRental dates can now be displayed the way your store writes dates. A new Rental Date Output Format group under Stores > Configuration > Sales Igniter > Rental sets the format separately for emails, for orders (the admin and customer order views, invoices, shipments, credit memos and PDFs) and for the cart, checkout and mini cart. Fourteen presets from 2026-06-23 to Tue, Jun 23, 2026 10:00 AM, or your own PHP date() or ICU pattern
• ImprovementA preset with no time in it still shows the time on products hired by time of day, so choosing a date only format does not quietly drop the pick-up hour. Presets that include a time always show it
• ChangeThe default is Store locale, which is what every store did before this release. Nothing changes on any store until the setting is changed, and each of the three can be set per store view
• CompatibilitySupport for Magento 2.4.9 on PHP 8.3 and 8.4
• FixHyvä theme detection now recognises Hyvä child themes. It previously matched only the theme path Hyva/default, so a store running a child theme – which is what Hyvä’s own documentation tells merchants to do – silently got the Luma code paths unless the Force Hyva Theme Mode setting had been found and turned on
• ChangeHyvä theme support now lives in a separate optional extension, salesigniter/hyvarental – see the entry below, and the install and updates page for the one extra command. Nothing changes for stores on Luma or a Luma derived theme
• FixFixes: the admin order view fataled for orders whose product had since been deleted; the rental calendar fataled every admin page that renders it; the Status column scrolled away from the rest of the header; Start Date and End Date showed a double colon on the admin order view, in the cart and in the mini cart; Send and Return quantities now pre-fill with the outstanding amount; the rental options rebuild no longer wipes other custom options; each rental shipment row now links to the sales shipment it belongs to; the shipment grid Serial column renders again; the pricing card rate table starts collapsed; and no Instalments panel is shown when Partial Payment Pro is not installed
• Upgrade noteUpgrade note: after deploying, run bin/magento setup:upgrade and then clear pub/static/frontend, pub/static/adminhtml and var/view_preprocessed before flushing the cache. Several JavaScript and CSS files moved between directories in this release and Magento leaves the previously generated symlinks in place; if they are not cleared those files return 404 and Luma’s top navigation collapses to zero height, which looks like a menu problem and is not one

Hyvä Compatibility Extension 1.0.0 Released September 11, 2026 #

• New featureFirst release of salesigniter/hyvarental, an optional companion extension for stores running the Hyvä theme. It is not needed on Luma or any Luma derived theme, and the rental extension works without it
• New featureIt comes from the same composer repository as the rental extension, so installing it is one extra command, composer require salesigniter/hyvarental, followed by bin/magento setup:upgrade. The full instructions are on the install and updates page
• CompatibilityRequires version 1.2.197 or later of the rental extension, and hyva-themes/magento2-compat-module-fallback, which is supplied by the Hyvä composer repository your store already uses to install Hyvä
• New featureHyvä ships no RequireJS, no jQuery and no Luma JavaScript, and its product page markup is not Luma’s. This extension supplies the Hyvä versions of the few templates that depend on that: the rental add to cart button with the Rent and Buyout labels, the pricing card, and the out of stock modal, which is rewritten with Alpine and Hyvä’s own modal helper instead of emitting a RequireJS call on every page of the site
• FixIt also moves the pricing card next to the calendar on Hyvä, where the layout instruction that places it before the price on Luma silently matches nothing, leaving the card rendered below the review form near the footer
• CompatibilityEverything in it is wired through the Hyvä compatibility module fallback and Hyvä’s own layout handles, both of which only apply on a Hyvä theme. Nothing here can reach a Luma page, so Luma output is unchanged by installing it
• Known limitationKnown limitation: the Previous Date Picker is not available on a Hyvä storefront, because it needs the jQuery UI widget and therefore RequireJS, which Hyvä does not ship. A Hyvä store always gets the new calendar whatever that setting says
• Known limitationWorth knowing when you switch a store to Hyvä: Magento binds widget instances to a theme, so calendar widgets configured under Luma will not appear until they are placed again against the Hyvä theme. This is standard Magento behaviour, not a rental extension limitation
