This feature allows you to leverage the functions of Liferay’s caching framework. Our current measurements indicate about 10%/30% performance increase in database writing operations, also 10 times faster reading performance!

The user experience of the Management Toolbar present in multiple applications (Web Content, Blogs, Documents & Media) has been improved:

• Separate sections for filter and order.
• Changed “+” with “New” for clarity.
• Moved info icon to the right.

Now, admins can customize the configuration of the Rich Text Editors with this new client extension, allowing them to set the toolbars that are available on different applications. In the form, you will have to define the instances in which the configuration will be taken into account as well as the JS that contains the configuration:

We refactored the way Liferay scripts were managed, so admins can define stricter policies like:

script-src '[$NONCE$]'; script-src-attr 'unsafe-inline';

Limitations: If a policy like the one above is configured, the parts of the product that uses a rich-text editor will not work correctly. Analyze your scenario to identify how strict your policy can be in order to make the solution work.

Now users can configure the values for the following properties from settings (system, instance or site settings):

• session.timeout.auto.extend
• session.timeout.auto.extend.offset

When the Upgrade Report is enabled, the output directory of the report can be configured with the new portal property upgrade.report.dir

If this property is not set, the upgrade report can be found in the default directory:

• portal-tools-db-upgrade-client/reports for the upgrade tool.
• {liferay-home}/reports if upgrade was executed on startup.

With this feature we extending the SCIM implementation with User Group un/provisioning as well with the User Group membership un/provisioning.

Previously customers would add captchas using a TagLib. But this is no longer useful since customers are not deploying JSPs. The Captcha API enables this functionality to be used in arbitrary contexts.
