We have implemented a new translation status feature in the web content editor, labeled "Translating," which provides information about the number of translated fields and those still requiring translation. This feature helps users to quickly identify areas needing translation. Additionally, all translatable fields, including metadata, are now conveniently displayed on the left side of the screen, reducing the likelihood of overlooking them.

Users can readily spot content that is not visible to Guest users through an icon, whether it's in list or table view or within the web content editor. Additionally, this feature is accessible in the item selector, empowering users to discern which content is not viewable by Guest users.

 

We're introducing advanced script loading options for JavaScript Client Extensions in Liferay, providing developers more control over how JavaScript is applied to pages. This update allows the specification of async and defer attributes directly in the extension's configuration, optimizing the loading process and improving page performance.
Benefits for users:

• Improved Page Load Performance: by setting async or defer attributes, scripts can be loaded non-blocking, enhancing page responsiveness.
• Enhanced Control: developers can pre-set these attributes in the YAML configuration or through the UI, ensuring scripts behave consistently across all pages without further adjustment.
• Streamlined Configuration: once set, these attributes are locked at the extension level, eliminating discrepancies and simplifying script management.

Allow developers to specify additional attributes to the <script> tag when deploying in with the JS Client Extension.

Example usage in client-extension.yaml: liferay-portal/workspaces/liferay-sample-workspace/client-extensions/liferay-sample-global-js-2/client-extension.yaml at master · liferay/liferay-portal

    scriptElementAttributes:
        async: true
        data-attribute: "value"
        data-senna-track: "permanent"
        fetchpriority: "low"

Or, developers can configure the attributes via the create Client Extension UI too:

When configuring a JS CX on a page and async/defer Boolean attributes are present in the CX (set in the yaml / defined through the UI), the following behaviors apply in regards to the Load type options:

1. The attribute set in the CX will be used and the ability to change it when applying it on a page will be disabled.
2. When both attributes are set in the CX, async will be applied.
3. When async or defer is set to false in the CS, the related option will be removed from the Load selector. (e.g. if defer: false the load options available for the user will be default and async).

 

This feature introduces the capability to connect Liferay Objects with SugarCRM Objects, empowering users to synchronize and store their data efficiently between the two platforms. By bridging these systems, users can streamline their workflows, enhance data consistency, and leverage the robust features of both Liferay and SugarCRM.

Users can now, with low effort, connect their Liferay and SugarCRM environments, eliminating the need for manual data transfers and reducing the risk of errors. This enhancement not only simplifies data management but also enhances the overall user experience by providing a cohesive and integrated ecosystem for managing customer data.
