My client is an organization in several countries. For each country
there are differents organizations and brands.
All this is managed very well with Liferay using a hierarchy of sites.
All of these sites inherit from a single site template.
My client would like to distribute content on several sites at the
same time while respecting this hierarchy.
The idea is therefore to use an asset publisher that would search on
the current site, then the parent site and its parent... up to its
country and finally the global site if it is a global communication.
For the creation of web content, it's simple, you just have to create
it on the global site or the site of the country or the site of the
organization... but then let's imagine that we have 300 sites, you
have to configure the 300 asset publisher manually and the modified
page of the site will be dissociated from the site template whereas we
would have liked to configure only the asset publisher of the site
template by checking a checkbox indicating that the search must be
recursive on the parent sites.
I think it's not very complex to modify the asset publisher and it
would be so convenient.
To do this, adding a simple boolean on the asset publisher jsp and
then do a small recursive loop to search the current site and its
parent sites in the service will do the job.
