"Look & Feel" missing on "Web Content Display" widget on a widget page? https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_thread?p_l_id=119785294&threadId=121394729 2026-04-05T04:12:47Z 2026-04-05T04:12:47Z Mark Clarke https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_message?p_l_id=119785294&messageId=121510599 2022-09-08T19:22:41Z 2022-09-08T19:21:59Z

<p>Turns out the that the property &quot;portlet.css.enabled&quot; somehow defaults to &quot;false&quot; now when it had been &quot;true&quot; before. I had to explicitly declare the property in portal-ext.properties to get the option back for Basic Web Content widget.</p> <pre> <code>portlet.css.enabled=false</code></pre>

<p>Wait what?<br /> &quot;but it should still be available on &quot;Widget Page's&quot;</p> <p>Is it gone from widget pages?</p>

<p>It's not your fault.</p> <p>Liferay did this on purpose in content pages. I have been trying for years to demonstrate that we simply cannot migrate from widget pages to content pages because there is no parity between the two. Your best bet for the time being to to give up on look and feel for widgets and use the styles sidebar in the web content display widget on a content page.</p> <p>Titles are missing too.</p> <p>I've tried many times to highlight these issues, perhaps having more people speak up about this can help. I believe they are starting to take notice, these issues could have been resolved in 7.2 or at least by 7.3 it feels like they don't want to hear about it. We as users don't matter and trying to change that culturally is a massive task that can't be done while they don't want to hear what they need to hear.</p> <p>I do know that custom CSS is about to make a come back, as for look and feel though, there's just no mapping between those options and the styles sidebar. Content pages are missing so many features of widget pages and if I can be totally candid with Liferay ... stop trying to copy webflow. It's kinda obvious. This is where this is all coming from. Figure out what is good about Liferay and do that, don't blatently do it this way. We could have mapped looka nd feel to the styles sidebar correctly but it's like even the people coding the product don't know how the product works.</p> <p>Take a look ...<br /> https://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-106495</p> <p>&quot;This has been a conscious decision based on strong user feedback. The Look and Feel pop-up often causes many problems&quot;<br /> <br /> What strong feedback? What Problems? The same fictional users who led us down the Site Builder &gt; Pages UI nightmare?</p>

<p>Hi all,</p> <p>We have upgraded from 7.4 and the &quot;Look &amp; Feel&quot; menu option for &quot;Web Content Display&quot; widget is missing. I understand that it is not available on &quot;Content Page&quot;s but it should still be available on &quot;Widget Page&quot;s. We are on 7.4.3-ga17.</p> <p>Anyone else have this issue? Could be a result of the many upgrades we have gone through over the years so maybe its unqiue to us.</p> <p>thanks</p>
