The product currently relies on a legacy CMS alongside a newly developed CMS, requiring parallel maintenance, duplicated functionality, and fragmented content workflows. This increases operational cost, slows down feature delivery, and creates inconsistencies in how content is managed and consumed.

This epic aims to inform the users that we are putting the current CMS in maintainance mode, preparing the field to add the feature flag in next releases

Key Benefits:

• Inform the users about the features set as In Maintenance

During the reviewing of the CMS experience and fixing bugs, we detected some product gaps and improvements that can make the user experience smoother, so this epic’s goal is to tackle them to ensure a stable and reliable user experience.

Key Benefits:

• Allow to search members in a space for non admin users

• Improved category creation

• Filter by space for content structures

• List view for Space home view

We have introduced several new bulk actions to the CMS to help you manage large volumes of content more efficiently. Instead of handling items individually, you can now perform complex administrative tasks across multiple selections simultaneously.

Key Benefits:

• Assign Workflow for Content Structures in bulk

• Expire content in bulk

• Delete versions of a content in bulk

• Export translations of different content in bulk

As part of improving asset management efficiency, this epic introduces bulk Copy and Move actions for assets within the CMS. These actions will allow content creators to organize and duplicate multiple assets at once, across locations in Spaces they have access to. The functionality should maintain the same user experience principles and behavior as the existing single-asset Copy and Move actions, extended to handle multiple selections simultaneously.

Key Benefits:

• Copy assets in bulk

• >Move assets in bulk

The Questions Widget is a legacy application that was primarily maintained to support Liferay Ask. With the recent migration from Ask to Discuss (Liferay's new forum platform), this widget is no longer needed. Therefore, the Questions Widget is being deprecated to reduce technical debt and ongoing maintenance costs.

Search re-indexing has been optimized to deliver shorter re-index windows, especially for Objects-heavy deployments. In testing against production databases and architecture, we observed re-index improvements of 2x or more across the evaluated datasets, with gains reaching up to 10x on specific workloads. The optimizations primarily targeted improvements that scale with the volume and complexity of Object data being indexed.

Key Benefits:

• Shorter re-index windows reduce maintenance overhead and downtime risk

• Validated on a production-equivalent distributed architecture

• Largest impact for Objects-heavy installations

Building on the automated database repair routines introduced in 2025.Q4, Liferay DXP continues to expand the set of repair processes that run during the upgrade. Based on additional research into customer upgrade issues, new repair routines automatically identify and correct further sources of database inconsistencies, orphan references, and invalid data — before they cause upgrade failures or performance bottlenecks. These repair routines remain targeted at known issues with data structures only, keeping your critical data content safe. Details of each repair process continue to be provided for review in the Upgrade Report after the database upgrade completes.

Key Benefits:

• Minimize risks for current and future upgrades

• Automates data maintenance

When using the Liferay DXP Database Partitioning feature, the system now enforces strict access controls ensuring only the authorized database partition is accessible for any given request. This completes foundational security work and extends proper enforcement to all Liferay entry points, including Headless APIs and Client Extensions.

Key Benefits:

• Prevents unauthorized cross-partition data access in multi-tenant environments

• Ensures consistent partition access enforcement across all Liferay entry points (Headless, Client Extensions)
