Jay Patel 12 Years Ago Awesome feature Ray...thanks for sharing!! Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel Ray Augé Jay Patel 12 Years Ago - Edited @Jignesh, Settings exist in a simple key value pair from in 6.0. The more advanced use that I describe here is for 6.1.@KK, I don't foresee any great performance penalty for using many settings themselves. I would take more care though in the implementation of features that use settings. Implementing a costly synchronous external request in the theme that is configured or managed by a setting could have devastating performance consequences, but doesn't really fault the setting itself.

dauphine laure 10 Years Ago hello. nice tut'sCan we use this tips for upload a banner for the theme ? Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel Ray Augé dauphine laure 10 Years Ago Hmm. Should be possible..However, it would require you to provide a UI portion (which you could easily do) which delegates to a Documents and Media edit/upload view then collects the resulting asset url and stores than in the theme properties.

Ryan Decker 10 Years Ago Can this theme setting be accessed from Journal Article template (VM)? When I output $request() in a Web Content Display I see that it includes the VIRTUAL_HOST_LAYOUT_SET which in turn includes a themeId=classic and settings=, So it appears we should be able to access it, but it seems this themeId always returns classic, even if I set my page and my portal default theme to my custom theme (I've tried this both in the control panel and via portal-ext.properties).If it helps, the driving idea here is that I would like to use a theme setting to alter the site logo and other global elements (via logic in portal_normal.vm) based on the setting. I have this working with no issues. However, I'd like to also be able to access the setting from a WCD template (possibly a macro) to be able to output "The Brand Name" or "The Other Brand Name" in a WCD to mirror the logo change. Is this possible? If so I would greatly appreciate a bump in the right direction! Thanks in advance!Ryan Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel
Avinash R 10 Years Ago Hi, I have a question regarding the settings. if i add a settings with key 'show-powered-by', is there any way to add the language value for the same?Right now this shows up as "show-powered-by" in the GUI, Can it be shown as "Show Powered By"? I believe this is done for the variables of the built-in themes using the Language.properties supplied in the root context, and changing the same using hooks will do the trick to show the show-powered-by correctly. But is there a way to supply your own Language.properties with the theme to support this? Please sign in to reply. Reply as...

Adnan Yaqoob 8 Years Ago RayI've attempted the color picker but it didn't appeared. I can only see a readonly text input with color number but no option to choose color at all. I'm using Liferay 6.2 EE sp11.In addition to this I want to achieve following scenario, it would be great if you provide some hint or refer any tutorial to learn more about using advance controlsWe have two settings (based on checkbox control), I want to disable the second if first one unchecked. I tried to locate the control based as belowvar source = A.one('#[@NAMESPACE@]option-one');var target = A.one('#[@NAMESPACE@]option-two');It give me the values for checkbox with target.val() but how to set the value (check/uncheck) and enabled/disabled? When I tried to attached event on source checkbox it didn't worked either. I tried to alert (source) that not the exact checkbox input like when we work using regular html & javascript.
