7.2 A1 - Web Content Within Fragments https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_thread?p_l_id=119785294&threadId=112603822 2026-04-04T11:57:25Z 2026-04-04T11:57:25Z Lee Jordan https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_message?p_l_id=119785294&messageId=112634468 2019-03-07T18:41:54Z 2019-03-07T18:41:54Z

Yeah it&#39;s very exciting. The fragments are really coming on strong. I would keep the widget portlet toppers and move the configuration icon into it. That would seem to solve the need for the opacity layer and allow for the widgets to be interacted with. I fear loosing the portlet topper from widgets within fragments will be a negative so would certainly advocate to leave them as is because they work really well.<br /><br />I looked at the two web content menus issue, and reported the loss from 7.0<br /><a href="https://community.liferay.com/forums/-/message_boards/message/112633538">https://community.liferay.com/forums/-/message_boards/message/112633538</a>
