Is it possible to have HMC in Hybris 6.7.0?

[ansellsilvans]

I am comfortable with HMC. Are there any changes in configurations to get HMC back?

No, HMC has already been deprecated in Hybris 6.6: https://help.hybris.com/6.6.0/hcd/8bb15ed586691014a948d1553f4947cf.html

The planned re-release is Q1 2018.

By 6.7, you should already be using backoffice.

hMC extension was deprecated starting with version 6.0. Please refer https://help.hybris.com/6.0.0/hcd/8bb15ed586691014a948d1553f4947cf.html . However, the extension was shipped with the hybris download and I was able to use it till version 6.4 with some configuration. I have not tried it with any other version after 6.4 and I hope the extension must have been altogether removed in version 6.7. As already mentioned in other answers to this question, I strongly recommend you to start using backoffice and I am sure you will become comfortable with it in a few days.

Some features from hmc do not exist in backoffice or smartedit. There's a way to reactivate hmc module?

[arvind-kumar_avinash]

You can try adding hmc extensions from a previous version:

 hmc
 platformhmc
 solrfacetsearchhmc

As usual, you need to build and update the system after adding the extensions.

Just extract the hmc extensions from a release prior to 6.7 and add them to your localextensions.xml. I can confirm that this still works in 6.7.

Could you share the required extensions you have added in the localextensions.xml for bringing back the hmc.

[tino_kissig]

At least you have to add:

 <extension name="hmc" />

Additionally all extensions ending with "hmc" according to your needs (like "solrfacetsearchhmc").

That is the problem with HMC that when you get used to it backoffice feels strange 🙂 But give backoffice a chance , you will like it.
