Geo-blocking Regulation: how to configure OXID eShop to be compliant?

  0 Comments/in / 
  , , ,

In the context of the new geo-blocking Regulation, it will become necessary to ensure that potential customers from across the EU internal market have access to and buy from your online shop. However, no online merchant is obliged to deliver, but has to create possibilities that the shipments can be picked up e.g. in the countries of delivery specified by you, if the purchaser gives a delivery address in this country and organizes the onward transport himself. In this tutorial we will show you how to configure the shop so that you comply with the new regulation on 3rd of December.

I’ve been asked several times how to run OXID eShop in a subdirectory like https://myluvelydomain.com/shop/. Actually, there are several methods to achieve this goal including the adaption of your apache vhost or via .htaccess forwarding. In this blog post I will describe how to use unix symlinks to resolve the situation as it is a very smart solution that can even be used to roll out and back between several versions of your project without any downtime.

We’ve experienced requests concerning the “Right to data portability” (Art. 20 GDPR) on several channels. The legal text states someat like ” … receive the personal data … in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format…”.
