Im using Liferay Portal v5.2.3 Community Edition. I have the following two questions which i hope someone would be kind enough to answer.
1.) I want to add some content to the About Us Page of my intranet portal. I added Web Content Display portlet, and maximized the screen after adding content. But accessing the portal, it always appears minimized.
Any way to solve this issue ?
2.) When i try to add a template after creating a structure, i have to select the script file to be used. I found some vm files for 7Cogs portal,but couldnt find any for the organization i created . Where are these vm or css files located and which one to use ?
Please Help.
Thank You.
For 1) There's no need to "maximize" anything if that's the only thing you have on a page. Just choose the single-column layout and place your Web Content in this single column that covers the whole screen.
For 2) you'll have to add the templates yourself. Every template belongs to a structure, so if you create your own structure, you also need to create templates that can display this structure.
You create templates in the same place you create structures: Go to the Control Panel. In the "Web Content" section you find tabs for structures and templates. When you create a template you need to specify a matching structure there. Once you've done that you can choose that template in your web content

I have created a minimal web app with maven following the tutorial
I want to add my own Java components into the webapp. I found these guides: guide1 and guide2
But I still cannot make a page in Pages App using templates from links above (just do not have that templates)
What am I doing wrong? Should I try smth else? Thanks.
There are 2 types of templates that Magnolia supports if you want to use it to render content as well as supply it. There is a page template that is associated with over page and then there is a component template that is used to render components within the page. Each page can have only one page template associated with them while it can contain multiple components of different type and multiple instances of those components as well.
From what I can see, your first guide will only create structure for templates in the generated module, but not actual templates. And your second guide will only create templating function and component template to demonstrate that function, but not a page template.
So first, you should check that in your module structure, somewhere under /src/main/resources/<your module name>/templates you have subfolder called pages and in that folder you have defined page template. And second, you might want to follow this guide for creating and registering page template.
Or if you want to skip java module altogether and do it just as a light module you can follow the guide here.
I am quite new to AEM. I am sharing a git repository with another colleague and both of us can pull and push commits. If I change the html for a component, we both will have the code.
My question is: Let's say I created
a page and included copy for it and a couple of images and components. Is there a way for me to export the page I built on my local AEM instance for my colleague to have it or should they build this page as I did step by step? I need to save time.
Thanks in advance
You can use Package Manager for content transfer between instances: https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/experience-manager-65/administering/contentmanagement/package-manager.html
You can create a package of your page and the required images and share with others. Packages can be easily created in the crxde. Packages or package manager can be used for multiple purposes like moving content from lower environment to higher, taking a backup of your content and many things.
The Package Manager is likely the solution here. Take into account that for a few pages and assets it is very handy, but it is recommended to create proper filters and exclude assets renditions to reduce the package final size as the site (or testing content) grows.
First, go to this URL "http://localhost:4502/crx/packmgr/index.jsp"
click on Create Package Button in the topbar and enter details and click ok.step1
Now, click on Edit and the filter->Add Filter now click on the search icon and select your page from the project and click ok and then save.step2
now click on Build and now you can download. and you can import this into another project.step3

I'm setting up a new web app and came to know that the company name is spelled incorrectly in all the web pages. So, I want to change it in all of them. I am using eclipse neon.
Is there any way to add or replace text from all the web pages in Eclipse ? or Will I have to change them manually one by one?
Tried using ctrl+shift+R but it's for the change of method or variable name in eclipse.
The eclipse IDE is mainly a programming tool, and as such it also supports:
searching for files using wildcards
replacing content using regular expressions within all finds matching your condition
Simply turn to Search"->"File" and enter your search text, a file pattern and then use replace!
And of course: the real answer is to step back and look into what you are doing! Such repeating information (that has to be always the same in many different places) should always come out of 1 source file, not out of 120 different files. That comment about "don't repeat yourself" is the real solution here!
I think, it is better to create a separate header page and separate footer page and include them in all web page. So next time if you make this type of mistake you should not think about the all page, you can just change in one page and see the change in all page.
Eclipse - Search - File..
in this example will be replace "conpany" in all jsp's with 'company'
I am hosting a Wordpress site and would like to use it to publish an open source project. I'd like one of the main menu items to link to the javadoc for the project. For those, unfamiliar with Java, javadoc is a programmatically generated directory hierarchy with many (too many to convert manually) HTML files. The root level contains the index.html file that you start with and all the references are relative to that directory. How can I hook in this structure to the WP site? Converting each page by hand to a WP page is not an acceptable solution because there are too many of them and they change regularly.
The following worked for me:
Within my WordPress folder I created a folder javadoc - right next to wp-admin and the like - and dumped all the created JavaDoc-html in there. Going to http://my-blog/javadoc nicely displays the docs.
I'm a novice in this area, so this might be inadvisable from a best practice or security point of view. I'm actually very interested in an opinion on that!
Im new to Liferay . I have downloaded the Liferay Tomcat bundle v5.2.3 Community Edition from the Liferay website. I am able to run it successfully.
I am now trying to create an intranet portal for our company using Liferay . I created an Organization in Liferay and added some pages and child pages to it.
How to add content to a page ?. I mean, i would like to add some text and images etc to the home page and other pages on the portal. I tried the Web Content Display portlet, but it always appears minimized and i have to maximise it by clicking on the maximize button. And also the option to minimize/maximize the portlet is available only when im logged in.
Is there any other way to add HTML content to a page, to make it look like a normal html page which anybody can view when they visit the portal ?
Thank You.
Web Content Display is indeed the easiest choice. You probably just made a mistake when using it.
Add the web content display portet
Click on "add web content" icon at the bottom-left of the portlet
You get a rich text editor, but you can also toggle to HTML view
When you're done click on "Save and approve".
Liferay CMS is built on the concept of template, structure and article.
structure: the element to be rendered, e.g. one text area + one image
template: the rendering of the structure, e.g. image in top-left + text around the image
article: the actual data that corresponds to a structure
But you should be able to edit your first Web Content Display without having an structure nor template. But I suggest you to have a look at them once your are used to the portal.
Once you have added the web content portlet and then added content, you need to configure the layout template you want. Choose the one column layout to let the portlet take up the whole screen.
I think you are asking how to create a new page of type web content.
note the content_id of your web content
make sure your web content is approved, published, and viewable (permissions)
create your page, entering your content_id into the Web Content ID field
I think when you do it this way, you forsake some of the portlet functionality that Liferay brings you.
