As a theme developer in Liferay I start this blog with the goal of sharing all type of useful content. I want to speak about a little frequent problem with dockbar, sometimes the dockbar could disturb if our portal design collides with it. The first advice that I can give you is to show the dockbar only when the user really needs it, for this we only need to change the permissions and adapt them to your needs. We never should delete the dockbar because the administrator users would lose much of his advantages. Thinking on this problem, I have worked on themes which change the aspect, position, colors and add 'responsive design improvements' of our dockbar. The first theme is based on _styled and tries to get the style of 'Classic responsive dockbar' adding the posibility of customice colours, for this we only need to add dockbar_classic.css in our _styled theme, into main.css: main.css, last line: @import url(dockbar_classic.css);
Theme Internationalization & Localization - Forums.
Embed Language Portlet in Theme. Sampsa. One of the current front-end trends is seems to be AngularJS.
Last week we had HelsinkiJS Meetup and again there were couple presentations talking about AngularJS. Our Developer Unconfrence at Berlin we had an unconfrence discussion about AngularJS. So AngularJS is for sure the framework that Liferay developers are keen to use. I decided to take a look AngularJS and how to use that in portlet development. Using any framework with portlets means that they should behave well in portlet world. As most of you already know, portlet's UI limitation is rendering area, which means that portlet should always stick to its area. By looking AngularJS tutorial I see that AngularJS application contains modules, which have controllers.
<html ng-app="myapp"> .. By looking this, my first impression is that AngularJS is not portlet ready since portlet does not own the page. Angular.bootstrap(<dom element>,<list of modules>); Following example demonstrate how this is done: and correseponding html: Theme Variables documentation. Expand all Utility macrosShow What's a macro?
A macro is a function that does text manipulation inside of Velocity. You can feed it parameters, and it will print out a string for you. Macros are not like traditional methods or functions, in that they don't return data, and while they can manipulate text based upon the parameters you pass in, it can only print. #css(FILE_NAME) Creates a link element like so: <link href="FILE_NAME" rel="stylesheet" type="text/stylesheet" /> #js(FILE_NAME) Creates a script element like so: <script src="FILE_NAME" type="text/javascript"></script> #language(LANGUAGE_KEY) Prints out the language string related to the LANGUAGE_KEY.
Customizing Social Office 3.0 using plugins. In the Liferay Developers Guide there is a nice little tidbit titled "Creating Plugins to Extend Plugins" found here.
This basically allows a lot of the same principles used with hook plugins when customizing Liferay. The difference here is that it allows you to customize portlet plugins with plugins. As with hook plugins this allows a degree of separation between your customization's and the default application. This same concept can also be used to customize Social Office plugins (including Social Office EE plugins). The name of the new plugin must match the name of the original plugin since the so-hook expects the original name. We had a need to hide the two public Site types in Social Office (Open and Public Restricted) since we share our Portal instance with our Clients.

You disable it in portal.properties: # # Set this property to true to load the packed version of files listed in # the properties "javascript.barebone.files" or # "javascript.everything.files". # # Set this property to false for easier debugging for development.
You can # also disable fast loading by setting the URL parameter "js_fast_load" to # "0". # javascript.fast.load=true However, I wouldn't recommend disabling it since it can degrade your site performance significantly, you should try to figure out why it's breaking. In general, it breaks if you've written custom javascript that is syntactically incorrect. If you had written custom js, I would suggest removing them until you find which one is wrong. Embedding Portlets in a Layout Template - Development. Are there portlets you need displayed in the same location on all pages using a particular layout template?
