Introduction So I was recently working with a team that was completing an upgrade assessment for a client wanting to upgrade from 7.2 to 7.4. A big chunk of the work in upgrading the client was going to be taken upgrading the themes. The client had one primary theme which contained the common style rules, but they also had 8 "child" themes, based upon the primary,...

Introduction A community member recently posted a question about how to make their component wait. I of course pointed them at my Power of Patience blog which I have been using for years now to wait for the portal to be ready. They came back and said it didn't work, which seemed quite odd to me because I and many others have been very successful with it. After...

So just a quick one today about an issue that I helped a coworker with. A client had reported that after they restarted Liferay, they had to redeploy their custom module that had a replacement @Component for one of Liferay's components, otherwise the custom component would not work. I replied back, "Oh, they just need to blocklist the Liferay component so their custom...

Introduction So I kind of have a "famous" blog post on Liferay Scheduled Tasks: https://liferay.dev/blogs/-/blogs/liferay-7-ce-liferay-dxp-scheduled-tasks. I say "famous" because it has been used by many folks to create scheduled tasks for Liferay 7, but it has also been the source of some bugs (i.e. undeploying from a cluster could cancel a job ...

Introduction In today's Office Hours session, the first question out of the gate was "If I'm using OpenID Connect for SSO, how can I synchronize UserGroup membership?". And, well, I just didn't know, but I said that I'd find out and then write a blog post to share the details, figuring that others doing OIDC may face similar sorts of concerns. I thought that...

This article explains how to deploy npm packages bundled with webpack that export and import stuff through the standard ECMAScript modules feature. This is a sequel of the Moving from AMD to Browser modules in Liferay DXP blog post, so it’s recommended reading that if you haven’t done so already. Why use webpack with ES modules? The main goal of using webpack and ES...

Introduction Recently I was pulled into a client project that was created for Liferay 7.4 and they needed to share content, structures, templates, documents, etc with multiple sites. Then I found out that they had done this the old way using the Global Site, and I was like "No No No, we have to fix this, we have to use Asset Libraries!" And everyone just...

Introduction So recently I was helping a client eliminate some FreeMarker from their site. As many who have read my blogs, I'm a quick one to call out "FreeMarker Abuse!" when I find that folks are doing things in FM that Liferay never intended (i.e. making any additional service calls). Liferay's intent with supporting FreeMarker is that you are just...
