Evolving the user experience when object validations fail specifying which information field end-users need to update.

 

This feature allows admin users to configure whether to send one email with everyone in copy or many emails individually to each email address.

Enabling this feature will allow users to dynamically populate fields using expressions with information created from data filled and provided by other fields.

Traditionally in Liferay, it has been hard to manage features deprecation because customers kept using the old features even if we announced deprecation and eventual replacements.

Now, we are able to better manage deprecation processes with the following changes:

• Features deprecation notice is increased from 6 months to 12 months. It applies to the Intended Functionality, as described in our Support Policy.
• Now, deprecated features might be kept inside a Deprecation Feature Flag during the deprecation period. These feature flags work as follows:
  • For upgrades, Deprecation Flags are active by default, therefore customers still see the deprecated feature. No disruption is perceived.
  • For new instances created, Deprecation Flag is inactive by default, therefore, the deprecated feature is hidden and it requires activation to be used. It prevents users from unconsciously using a deprecated feature.

• Deprecated features are identified in DXP with a new deprecation badge.
