With the release of Liferay DXP 2025.Q2, we are deprecating the Elasticsearch 7 compatibility due to the end-of-maintenance and upcoming EOL of the Elastic Stack 7.17. Liferay strongly recommends all customers with 7.17.x or earlier deployments to upgrade to the latest compatible version of Elasticsearch 8.x. Learn more.

Deprecated
The Concurrent and Sync Reindex Modes, providing high-availability, introduced in Liferay DXP 7.4 Update 98 / Liferay DXP 2023.Q4 are now GA.
Reduce downtime, improve operational and resource utilization efficiency with the new Concurrent and Sync reindex execution modes providing high-availability in search capabilities while the operation is running.
In this release a new type of Data Set called System Data Sets is introduced, which will allow admin users to clone Java/Code Data Sets, making them editable and customizable through the Data Set Manager, which allow to customize any administration part of DXP built with a customizable Java/Code Data Set.
In this release the Data Sets from Order Pages have been made available as System Data Sets:
Pending Order Items
Placed Order Items
Order Returns
Pending Orders
Placed Orders
In the next releases more and more Data Sets will be added to the list.
Key Benefits
This epic increases the flexibility of Liferay DXP by enabling partial customization of previously hardcoded Data Sets.
Admins will have more control over the user experience, enhancing the platform's ability to meet diverse and evolving business requirements.
This also reduces the need for custom development efforts to modify or replace hardcoded Data Sets.
Release Flag (opt-in)
When an admin user is managing a Data Set, they might create sorting options, filters and actions. Until now, if the admin user chose not to show them to the end-user, they had to be deleted. From now on, these sub-entities can be deactivated, hiding them from the end-user without losing editing progress.
Key Benefits:
- Easier management of sub-entities without requiring deletion and recreation.
- Improved usability by allowing admins to configure visibility dynamically.
- More flexibility in defining experiences without modifying underlying data.
