We’re excited to roll out a powerful new enhancement to the HDL Commerce dashboard — Dynamic Attribute Filtering. This feature gives teams more precise control when searching through Product and PIM listings by allowing custom filters to be defined directly from attribute settings.
Whether you’re managing a large catalog or refining product views for specific teams, this update brings flexibility and clarity to your workflow.
We’ve introduced dynamic filters to the PIM/Product Listing pages, enabling a more targeted and customizable search experience.
Default Filters Enabled Out of the Box:
Type
Show Variants
Attribute Set
Status
These serve as the baseline, but now you can go beyond defaults by configuring your own.
To support this feature, we’ve implemented new search builder classes that extend our backend architecture:
Modules\\Catalog\\Repositories\\Builder\\Product\\ProductSearchBuilder – for Product listings
Modules\\Pim\\Repositories\\Builder\\Product\\PimProductSearchBuilder – for PIM listings
Note: This dynamic filtering system is not compatible with the existing base filterable logic and runs independently for maximum flexibility.
Clients now have the ability to choose which product attributes appear as filters in the dashboard.
How It Works:
Go to the Attribute Dashboard → Create or Update Form
In the Advanced Attribute Properties, toggle Dashboard Searchable to ON
Once enabled:
If the attribute type is select, multiselect, or categoryselect, it will appear as a filter
If the type is text, it will be included in the global search field and matched on input
Example Use Cases:
Create filters for color, brand, or custom specs
Allow filtering by internal tags, availability flags, or category links
Limitations (Phase 1):
Only text, select, multiselect, and categoryselect attribute types are supported
Filtering by range fields like price and date is not yet available — these will be added in a future release
Database & Migrations:
A new column is_dashboard_searchable was added to the attributes table
Default value is 0, so migrations must be run on the Catalog module to enable the feature
UI Updates:
Filter sections for both Product and PIM dashboards have been redesigned
The new filter layout mirrors the UX of the Order filter UI, ensuring consistency across modules
Only default filters (Type, Show Variants, Attribute Set, Status) are enabled by default
Text-based filters like Name and SKU are disabled by default and must be manually toggled on

We’re thrilled to introduce Phase 1 of the Skrym logistics integration in HDL Commerce — designed to streamline your fulfillment flow with smarter shipment handling and direct label printing. This update makes shipping faster, easier, and more automated right from your HDL admin.
You can now configure shipping methods, automatically trigger shipment bookings, and manage Skrym label printing — all inside your existing order workflow.
Skrym Shipping Method Setup
A dedicated configuration panel for Skrym is now available.
Go to: Dashboard → Configuration → Sales → Shipping Methods → Skrym
You can input integration details including:
API Key
Custom Skrym-specific settings
Booking & Label Printing via Skrym API
This release introduces two key logistics actions:
Shipment Booking triggered when orders are placed
Label Printing available directly in the admin panel
Note: Tracking and status updates will be included in Phase 2.
Automated Booking Flow
Admins can now mark specific shipping methods for automatic shipment creation
When triggered, Skrym bookings are sent via API without manual steps
If successful: shipment is marked as booked, and the “Create Booking” button is disabled
If failed: error details are logged in the Order Comments section
Flat Rate Transporter Mapping
HDL’s flat_rate shipping methods are now fully integrated with Skrym’s transporter mapping.
Each flat rate (e.g. Flat Rate One to Six) can be mapped to a corresponding Skrym transporter.
Set this in: Dashboard → Configuration → Sales → Shipping Methods → Flat Rate
Streamlines your shipping and fulfillment workflows
Reduces manual steps for logistics teams
Integrates seamlessly into your existing order processing
Prepares your platform for enhanced logistics features in future phases
Head to your HDL Commerce Dashboard
Navigate to: Configuration → Shipping Methods → Skrym
Add your API Key and select which shipping methods should use Skrym

We’ve made key improvements to how navigation menus are managed in HDL Commerce, moving from file-based configuration to a more dynamic, database-driven system. This update improves flexibility, scalability, and long-term maintainability for managing navigation across channels and storefronts.
Navigation menu locations (e.g., Primary Menu, Footer Menu) are now stored in the database rather than configuration files. This allows dynamic updates without code deployment and supports multi-channel setups.
We’ve introduced a command-line tool to help developers migrate existing configuration-based menus to the new system:
This extracts existing paths and titles and stores them in the database — ready for use without code rewrites.
The old method of defining menu locations in configuration.php is now deprecated. It will be removed in a future release. We recommend migrating as soon as possible to ensure future compatibility.
Validation Updates: Reserved identifiers such as primary_menu and footer_menu can now be used safely when creating new entries. The system prevents unintended changes to existing reserved identifiers.
Centralised Validation: New validation rules are injected directly via the NavigationMenuLocationRequest, ensuring consistent behaviour and improving testability.
Scoped Logic Fixes: Channel-specific behaviours are now handled more reliably, reducing unnecessary entries in scoped navigation contexts.
Use the navigation:location:migrator command to migrate existing configurations into the database
Test any overridden navigation-related logic in custom projects
The core system now queries menu locations directly from the database
