initial version
Technical
To take in account third party payment extensions using custom implementations of Magento_Checkout/js/action/place-order.js to submit the order, this extension sends
the order comment in a separate request during the validation, before the order is placed. It should therefore work out of
the box.
Uninstall
If you installed this module through composer, then you can run php bin/magento module:uninstall Bold_OrderComment to automatically
remove the code and drop the columns added by this extension.
note: the uninstall command seems bugged and might get stuck at Removing code from Magento codebase: (It worked fine for me on a 2.1.0 install but not on a 2.1.4 install). When this happens you should
exit with ctrl+c and run
composer update
php bin/magento maintenance:disable
Alternatively you can manually remove the extension and remove the column bold_order_comment from the tables

Compatibility
Each Magento release line is installed on its supported PHP versions, then the module is built (DI compilation + static-content deploy) and its unit and integration suites are run. The matrix shows the lines and PHP versions the module is confirmed to install and run on. Code-quality results further down (phpstan, phpcs, …) are reported separately and never affect compatibility.
| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | not tested | Pass | ||
| 2.4.8 | not tested | not tested | ||
| 2.4.9 | not tested | not tested |
Code Quality
Advisory checks against the module's source. Static analysis runs once across the whole module; PHPStan re-runs per Magento + PHP version because resolvable symbols differ between releases. These NEVER affect the Compatibility badge. A phpcs finding can't make a module incompatible.
Static analysis
Coding standards (phpcs), mess detection (phpmd), copy-pasted code (cpd), PHP cross-version compatibility, composer.json validity. Each runs once for the whole module.
Tests
Unit and integration suites, run for each applicable Magento and PHP version. A test failure speaks to the module's behaviour, not its compatibility with a Magento line, so it is reported here separately and never reddens the compatibility matrix.
Security
Security checks run directly against the module: an audit of its declared dependencies for known vulnerabilities (composer audit) and a scan of its source for malware and web-shell signatures. Each runs once. A malware detection fails the version outright.
Turn an existing module into recurring revenue.
If you already maintain a Magento 2 module on GitHub or GitLab, listing it on Packagento takes about five minutes. We mirror your tags, handle distribution signing, and route paid licenses through Stripe Connect, so you can keep shipping the way you already do.
