In fact, by default, an Elasticsearch instance is embedded in Liferay DXP (it’s a good moment to remind everyone that this is not supported for Production environments, where a separate Elasticsearch instance must be created). In this article we’re going to outline how to use the...
In the previous blog post we covered the beginning of the project, this includes a description of the app features, advantages of using Liferay Screens and lastly the wireframe. In this one, we will cover how we can “screenletize” the different screens of the application and build them combining different screenlets. We will also organise the 10 days and plan what are the tasks we...
Before we begin with this story, for those of you that don’t know about Liferay Screens.

In Liferay 7.1 we presented a new vision to the page authoring process.

To make it possible we introduced the fragment concept. In our vision fragment is a construction block...

What's Context Contributor? While developing a theme I was thinking how can I know all the variables that I can access in my free marker templates? Won't it be great if I can write a utility program which can list out all the variables and objects that can be accessed from our theme or other templates files? Context Contributor concept can be used for this purpose. Actually using...

Probably the two most notable concerns are the end of public updates for Java 8 and the uncertainty of the rights to use Oracle JDK without paying...

Here are my thoughts on how some of these changes will affect Liferay Portal/DXP users: Starting with JDK11, you will no longer be able to use Oracle...

Whether it's bar charts, line charts, pie charts, scatter charts, spline charts, or even donut charts, the Chart taglib has you covered....
