As we all know, Magento is the well known open source software widely used to develop online stores with overall functionalities such as Magento design, Search box, Payment gateways, Product description, Product display with multiple images, searching product through  Size, Category, Colour, Variation type and more. Certain online traders wish to develop an online store according to their own needs which suits their business requirements perfectly. Custom Magento designs; custom magento templates fulfil these needs of the businesspeople. Online traders can get a fully customized Magento store including all the functionalities.

Getting a stunning ecommerce store developed on such a brilliant ecommerce platform can be the first step towards success for an online business. To get this task done, Magento developers are required. Currently, Magento developer(s) are in huge demand. However, before commencing the magento development, here are some cues that can be of great use for the Magento Professionals:

  • Backend:  Select “System> Configuration, then Advanced > Configuration.  A dialog box as shown below will appear. In the Debug section, enable “profiler” and in the “Template settings”, enable “Log settings”. You can see File Location directory is /var directory. Please ensure that this directory allows writing in the file.
  • Then activate the “Developer Mode” in the programming part, in vhost configuration. To activate the developer mode, insert this command in the vhost configuration :
  • Altering the index.PHP file:
    In order to activate the Varien Profiler and display the errors, the index.php file is to be edited. The index.php should view as given in the below image:
  • Checking MySQL: With respect to know which queries take long time to load the page; we can log all the queries to determine the query that takes the longest time. This can be done by modifying the script as follows :
    • By altering the lib/Varien/Db/Adapter/Pdo/Mysql.php and set to true: $_debug, $_logCallStack and set to “0″ the $_logQueryTime value.
    • Preparing a writable directory in var called debug (that is, var/debug) in your magento directory.
  • Necessary Magento extensions:Extensions are installed to get help while developing an ecommerce store on Magento. All extensions are not Magento compatible.  The compatible ones are Web developer toolbar and Layout analyzer.
    • Web development toolbar: This extension is used to add tool buttons in the top right website corner. This allows us to see block information, clear cache, allow translation, block any pages, allow blocked content and more.
    •  Lay out Analyzer:  With the help of this extension, the preview of the store layout can be seen before making it live.  Final XML Layout can also be viewed.

Using all the above mentioned tools and some more, Magento development can be accomplished easily. However, the tools should be handy as at times it becomes difficult to establish and modify   the Magento based online store.
