Liferay’s Countries feature was migrated from being a Commerce feature to a DXP feature, thus Commerce’s Countries page was removed. Users that manage Countries will now be able to manage them through the Countries Management page under the Control Panel.
Release Notes
This section contains information about breaking changes in out-of-the-box DXP features and capabilities. For breaking changes or internal code, please check this link.
Content is no longer classified as translated solely upon the translation of its title. Now, when a user translates any field, not just the title, but also the content status changes to "Translating". It will only be considered translated when all fields have been translated.
To bolster permissions management and elevate user awareness concerning content, users will now be prompted to confirm permissions during the initial publishing or saving process, requiring an additional click. Subsequent saving or publishing actions will not require this confirmation.
The "Mine" filter now displays the creation date information instead of the modified date.
The "Recent" filter now displays the creation date information instead of the modified date.
A new SEO menu has been added in Instance Settings with an item selector to include specific Sites or all of them, in the sitemap of the Company through the Company's Virtual Host, and the default site cannot be deleted from the list. If the default site has a Virtual Host defined, it will not be added to the company's XML sitemap although listed in the configuration.
Users are currently presented with a group of features that are not relevant in the configuration page for Utility Pages. These non-applicable features have been removed while preserving the essential HTML Title, HTML Description, and SEO configuration elements.
After searching with a keyword and selecting facets, searching with a new keyword (in either using the header Search Bar or any Search Bar widget instance on a page) will clear all active facet selections.
The old behavior can be enabled via the Search Options widget by ticking Retain Facet Selections Across Searches option.
This affects any custom code using Liferay’s API methods User.getRemotePreference(String) and User.getRemotePreferences().
The API supporting logic has to collect and hold cookies in User object, causing unnecessary CPU and memory overhead. These methods were just a convenient shortcut to get the user's current request's cookies with REMOTE_PREFERENCE_ name prefix. The same logic can be done by directly getting necessary cookies from request.
- What changed? Currently, the translatable object fields use the configured languageId from the user. With this change, it is going to use the preferred Locale given by the DTOConverterContext instead.
- Why was this change made? This change is needed in order to return the appropriate translatable object field values for the language setting in the Accept-Language header.
- Who is affected? Every user that calls the translatable object fields.
- How should I update my features or implementation to better adopt the breaking change? Adding or removing (depends on the cases) the Accept-Language header.
Tag values are now case-sensitive.
The name of the reserved variable ID has always referred to the article ID so it has been changed to: Article ID. A new ID variable has been added that refers to the ID.
Sites are not browsable for non-admin users in Breadcrumb portlet when the site has Membership restricted or private.
The Default Layout permission was replaced with the current Group check.
Disable Group membership checking since it has no relationship to layout browsability.
When we create a new Site the Allow Manual Membership Management option will be disabled by default to avoid uploading malicious files to the Documents and Media portlet.
All filtering in web content now only applies to the current folder. Previously, certain filters exhibited behavior limited to the current folder and now it has been standardized to all filters.
Searching after filtering will clear all existing filters and give a search from the entire data set.
The filtering options for "With approved versions," "With scheduled versions," and "With expired versions” are now designated as "Approved," "Scheduled," and "Expired," respectively. Rather than filtering all web content with a given status, it now distinctly displays content or versions in the specified status.
From now on, the segments tab for the Administrator role will no longer be displayed in the assignees' tab. Assigning the Administrator role through segments is not allowed.
The guest role from the role selector was disabled since it is not possible for it to work. |
The configuration sections in Utility Pages are not enabled, as the other pages, due to their use being more restricted. The implementation of these settings should occur by analyzing each case.
