Personalization has become a key part of customer experience. Essentially, by tailoring content for individual users depending on their characteristics, preferences and behaviour, companies can communicate, engage and delight customers across multiple channels, ultimately increasing both revenue and customer base. Liferay has been at the forefront of helping organizations understand...

One more year, Liferay Developer Conference (DEVCON) will bring together developers from all around the world to learn about Liferay, our platform, available tools and the people behind the product.

A FAQ about Application Display Templates (ADTs) is how to render the fields in an structured web content when it is listed on an Asset Publisher portlet. Paulo Fernandes proposed in a blog entry a widely used approach based on parsing (via iteration or xpath) the underlying XML. As an alternative, this time I'll show you a divide-and-conquer solution for this use-case. ...

One more year, it's been great to meet many of you at our events. This time I dedicated one of my workshops to the migration of 6.2 plugin projects to Liferay 7.0. I knew that some of you had already started planning this migration and you would find it helpful, so thanks for the good feedback. And thank you even more for all your questions, as they help us know what your concerns...

What a coincidence (or maybe not...) that Doc and Marty landed in the future on October 21, 2015, the date of the Liferay Spain Symposium. Maybe we didn’t see any overboards or self-tying shoes, but this event was indeed a window to the future of Web Experience. With Liferay 7 just around the corner, it was the best chance to learn about all its new features first hand from...

Liferay Developer Conference and Unconference 2015 were simply great. Lots of sessions, games and chances to meet some of the most active Liferay developers. It was also very exciting and encouraging to register the attention that Audience Targeting has drawn among developers in just one year. Both the session and the workshop led by Julio, Pavel and me were packed and we...

Liferay Developer Conference (aka DEVCON) is a great chance for us to meet Liferay developers from all around the world every year. As for the last months we’ve been working on the new version of Audience Targeting, Julio and I very willingly proposed a talk about its new features and how to use them to integrate your apps with it.    But...

It was great to participate in the Liferay North American Symposium this year. With hundreds of Liferay users (customers, partners, community members...) and dozens of presentations, it was not only a huge success but also a great opportunity to share user experiences and get your feedback. North American Symposium is over, but Liferay World Tour 2014 is not! There are still ...

It’s less than a week left until Liferay North America Symposium (NAS), the first of a series of events where we’ll have the chance to first-hand explain to our users what we’ve been working on this year. In particular, workshops will give us the opportunity to go deeper in some of our most popular features, as we will have the time to review and solve some real use cases. In...

Application Display Templates have become one of the most popular features in Liferay Portal 6.2. Last year we reviewed how to use this powerful tool to customize some Liferay portlets. Furthermore we explained how developers can apply the same feature to their custom portlets in just a few steps. The Liferay Community provides a great feedback about how you use Application...

Middle Eastern languages, such as Hebrew and Arabic, are written predominantly right-to-left (RTL). However, many sites written RTL also have left-to-right (LTR) content mixed in, making them bidirectional in nature. Conveniently, browsers use language and direction information of HTML tags to automatically adapt and align page content. However, sites may consist of elements...
