The vendor has deprecated OpenSSO/OpenAM, so there's no reason for us to keep it. The alternative, which is PingAM can be integrated using our existing OpenID connector or SAML Authentication.

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. |

Provided an option to turn the “Out-of-date” feature on/off. When turned on (the default behavior before this release), ongoing publications created in previous Liferay versions were labeled as “Out-of-date” after the upgrade and could not be modified or published. This feature is now off by default, and users can publish these publications without Liferay support.
Key benefit:
Increase manageability over publications and the ability to publish any previous modification, including after Liferay upgrades.

Improved keyboard navigation and column resizing for Miller columns. Users can now navigate between columns both horizontally (deeper levels) and vertically (same level) using the keyboard. Column widths are also responsive, adapting to different screen sizes.

Added logging to indicate the completion of fragment deployments via the deploy folder. This provides better visibility into the deployment process and allows for tracking deployment duration.
There are some advantages of including a message like that, for example:
- Count the duration of a deployment
- See the fragment progress deployment until it is deployed.

Liferay Cloud now provides CI/CD support for Client Extensions on Liferay PaaS. Developers can integrate Client Extensions into their Git-based CI/CD pipelines, ensuring automatic builds and deployments alongside core Liferay services. This update enables automated validation, independent deployments, and faster release cycles for Client Extensions.
Highlights:
Dedicated CI/CD Pipeline: Separate build pipeline for Client Extensions to prevent conflicts with core Liferay services.
Automated Builds: Every commit triggers a new Client Extensions build, packaged as a LUFFA archive.
Independent Deployments: Client Extensions builds deploy separately, improving release flexibility.
Seamless Integration: Works with existing Git-based workflows on Liferay PaaS.
Zero Downtime Deployments: Deploy client extensions without affecting the main Liferay service.
Beta
Until now, there was no way in batch engine to export and import object entries and their permissions simultaneously. This new capability allows users to do that, streamlining workflows and reducing manual effort.
Key benefits:
Execution in only one call.
Possibility for users to choose to take into account (or not) permissions with object entries.
Generally Available (aka OOTB)
Data imports, using batch engine, now allows users to preserve content creator information (if required). Previously, imported content with batch was always assigned the user performing the import, resulting in loss of original authorship data when moving content. This update ensures accurate attribution of content ownership (if required).
Key benefits:
Able to keep critical user information during data promotion between environments
Can be configured separately per import process
