New feature in Liferay 6.0 - Quick reply in message board

Quick reply in message board is another new feature in Liferay 6.0.

If you download latest trunk and look at the message board, you will find a new link names "Quick Reply" along with "Reply" and "Reply with Quote".

When you click on "Quick Reply", you get WYSWIG editor at the bottom of the page without redirecting to a new page.

There are 2 advantage of "Quick Reply":

a) First, as the name suggest, it is a quick way to response to a message without actually reloading the page.

b) In case of "Reply", you can see only one message to which you are replying but while using "Quick Reply", You can see and refer all other messages on the page.

Since this is a quick reply, it does not provide you the facility to preview or attach any file with your reply.

Download trunk and try it out.

Hi Manish,
Today i download liferay 6.0 and installed . I found that the UI needs to be taken care. The portlet icons are not properly displayed. The refresh icon is shown for remove option. The maximize icon is not showing. The return icon is shown for the minimize icon.

Hi Thangavel,

That issue is caused by having the wrong images cached in the browser. Clear the browser cache and it'll be solved.

It happens to me often when I switch between different versions of Liferay in the same domain.
