Liferay 7.4 introduces the ability to manage language translations directly within client extensions. This enhancement allows developers to provide multilingual support for custom labels and properties without relying solely on OSGi bundles.

Key benefits: 

• Developers can now define and manage language keys and translations within the client extension itself, ensuring that all labels and custom properties are displayed correctly across different languages.

• This feature eliminates the issue of untranslated labels with dashes, providing a consistent and professional appearance on multilingual sites.

• Simplifies the process of adding translations, reducing the need for manual intervention and external OSGi bundles, thus accelerating the development and deployment of multilingual features.

• Empowers developers to create more flexible and fully localized custom elements and themes, enhancing the overall versatility of the Liferay platform.

It is now possible to subscribe to documents and folders, allowing users to receive notifications when they are updated.

Highlights:

• Users can now subscribe to documents and folders through the “Subscribe” action and through the Subscribe icon in the Info Panel

• If a user subscribes to a folder, all documents and subfolders within it will be automatically subscribed to as well
