We are excited to introduce a new feature that allows you to create multi-step forms within the Page Editor.
This functionality provides a more intuitive and engaging user experience, especially for complex forms.

Key Features:

• Easy Conversion: Easily convert any existing form into a multi-step form by adding a stepper fragment.
• Flexible Step Management: Organize your form into multiple steps, and easily move inputs between steps.
• Intuitive Navigation: Users can navigate between steps using the step menu or form buttons.
• Customizable Buttons: Configure form buttons to act as "Next," "Previous," or "Submit" buttons, providing a seamless user experience.
  This new feature allows you to create more complex and user-friendly forms without extensive coding.

The new Date Range and Range aggregation types unlock powerful search capabilities for your Liferay assets, including Web Content Structures and Objects.

By configuring any date or numeric index field, you can:

• Group and Filter Results: Create dynamic search filters based on specific dates or numeric ranges.
• Customize User Experience: Offer flexible search options with predefined ranges or custom input fields.
• Visualize Data Effectively: Leverage out-of-the-box display templates for a seamless user interface.

Think of Date Range as a versatile extension of the Modified Facet. You can now select any desired date field to refine search results precisely.

This update enhances the transparency and accountability of your Process Builder definitions. By tracking modification dates and user information, you can easily identify changes, troubleshoot issues, and ensure compliance. With this improved version history, you can effectively manage your processes and make informed decisions.

This new feature allows users to configure Collection Providers based on Liferay System Objects, such as Users and Accounts.

The Centralized Products Eligibility and Configuration Management feature empowers catalog managers to efficiently manage individual products through multiple configuration pages containing all catalog’s products. With tools for manual configuration, eligibility-based visibility, and some bulk editing, this feature ensures streamlined operations and enhanced control over product offerings. Additionally, it enables faster and smarter management of product eligibility for channels, order types and accounts.

The new Multishipping feature lets customers ship items from a single order to multiple addresses during checkout. Whether customers are sending gifts to different recipients or shipping products to various locations, the Multishipping feature offers a seamless and flexible shopping experience. Site administrators can enable this feature, and customers can easily manage shipments to different addresses within their order details.

Liferay Labs is an innovation hub within Liferay Marketplace dedicated to exploring newer technologies and developing experimental features. It provides a wide range of useful applications developed by Liferay staff. Liferay Labs serves as a platform for rapid prototyping and testing new ideas. These apps may often be integrated as future Liferay features.
All apps offered by Liferay Labs are free but without support, but users can provide feedback on apps containing beta features as it helps in improving them for a future release.
 

Official release of Liferay Data Sets, moving from Beta to Release! Data Sets are a powerful and flexible way to retrieve, manage, visualize, and interact with structured data in Liferay DXP. Built on top of Objects and leveraging Liferay’s robust ecosystem, Data Sets exemplify the “build Liferay with Liferay” philosophy. With seamless integration with compatible Headless APIs, administrators can easily configure Data Sets and empower end-users with a rich, customizable experience for consuming and interacting with data.

Key benefits:

Retrieve Data: Fetch information from any compatible Headless API to use as a Data Set source.

Manage Flexibility: Administrators can customize what parts of the API response are included, along with filters, sorting options, and available actions.

Visualize Data: Multiple visualization options make it easier than ever for end-users to consume data meaningfully.

Enable Interaction: End-users can interact dynamically with data using the filters, actions, and tools configured by administrators.

This release introduces in-context translation for text-based form fields (Text, Rich Text, and Textarea) directly within the page editor. This empowers content creators to easily create localized form experiences for their users, enabling them to complete forms in their preferred language. Only designated localizable form fields will be translated, ensuring precise control over localized content.

Make it easier to offer the payment options your customers prefer. You can now install free cloud payment method apps from the Liferay Marketplace directly within DXP—no need to leave the platform or manage manual integrations.

This update gives users quicker access to a growing set of payment options, helping you better meet local and global customer needs. It’s a simple way to expand your capabilities while keeping your workflows smooth and centralized.

Building multilingual applications is now simpler. You can now translate Object form fields marked for localization directly within the page editor—no need to leave the editing experience or use external tools. This enhancement streamlines the localization process for application interfaces, making it easier to deliver user-friendly experiences across languages. Teams have full control over which fields are localized, ensuring flexibility and precision.

Build Pages Faster with Marketplace Fragments and Low-Code App Support
Liferay now makes it easier for customers to discover and install page-building components. With this update, users can now access and install pre-built fragments from the Liferay Marketplace directly within the page builder, giving them more design options without leaving the editor. In addition to native and installed fragments, a broader selection of high-quality components from Liferay, partners, and the community is now just a click away.

Publishers can also share their own fragments, Client Extensions, and Composite Apps on the Marketplace, offering even more flexibility for Liferay customers to download and install these tools seamlessly into their DXP instances.

Imagine a personalized storefront for your products within the Liferay Marketplace. We've created dedicated "Publisher Pages" where vendors can showcase their brand, products, company information, and contact details.

We've introduced a powerful new feature that allows your customers to upload files directly when purchasing a product. Whether it's a photo for a personalized gift or a design for a custom print, buyers can now seamlessly provide their own files during checkout. Merchants can also set this as a required option.

Connecting Asset Libraries to Site Templates allows content creators to validate new assets directly within a template before deploying them to live sites. This feature fills a critical gap where templates currently can’t access Asset Library assets, forcing users to create full sites just to test content. This inefficiency leads to errors and poor user experience.

With this release, the Liferay DXP is now built with the modern, cloud native technology provided by the Jakarta EE 10 platform. The legacy Java EE platform will no longer be supported on this and future releases, allowing Liferay DXP to continue to evolve and build innovative solutions to meet your business needs.

In order to assist users in the migration to Jakarta EE required for 2025.Q3 and beyond, Blade and Workspace users now have a command to automatically convert their source code from Java EE to Jakarta EE for DXP-provided libraries.

The DXP database upgrade process has been enhanced with a suite of verification checks that are executed before any data modifications are made.

These checks have minimal impact on the overall upgrade process execution time, but they can be optionally disabled with the property

We've enhanced our "Search Blueprints" to allow for more precise filtering of content types and subtypes (e.g., specific web content articles or document types). This means you can now create dynamic collections of content that are incredibly relevant to what your users are looking for.

This enhancement allows administrators to seamlessly duplicate an existing role along with all of its current permissions.

Similar to creating a new role from scratch, Role Duplication can be initiated directly from the Roles list. Administrators can simply select an existing role, choose Duplicate, and assign a unique name to the new role. The system then creates a fully configured duplicate, including all existing permissions, and redirects the administrator to the Role Details page for further adjustments.

Please note that only the role’s current permissions are copied at the time of duplication. If new applications are deployed later, their permissions are not automatically added to the duplicated role.
