Previously, comments might have been trapped in the Liferay UI; now, they are first-class citizens in the API, allowing for seamless discussion threads across any connected platform.

Liferay has expanded its Headless API capabilities to include full management of Object Entry comments. When commenting is enabled for an Object definition, developers can now interact with those discussions via dedicated REST endpoints. This update supports full CRUD operations (GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE) using External Reference Codes (ERCs) for easier identification across systems.

Key Benefits:

• Feature Parity for External Applications: Developers building custom front-ends can now provide a fully interactive "social" experience.

• Complete CRUD Capabilities: Users aren't just able to read comments; users can programmatically create, update, and delete them.

A user-centric consent management approach where consent preferences are securely stored on the server and linked to a registered user account, enabling a persistent, cross-device experience while maintaining user control and compliance.

Key Benefits:

• Seamless experience: Users are not repeatedly prompted for consent across devices or after clearing browser data.

• Stronger compliance & control: Consent is centrally managed, auditable, and can be optionally restricted by the user for cross-device storage.

Include page fragments interactions for Analytics Cloud performance tracking. Previously, only assets displayed via native widgets (portlets) were instrumented for performance metrics

The platform now features a "Reset Consent for All Users" button located within the Instance Settings under the Platform configuration for Terms of Use.

When an administrator activates this button, the system automatically resets the agreedToTermsOfUse flag for every account in the instance, which effectively forces all users to review and accept the current legal version upon their next login.

To ensure complete transparency, this action triggers a specialized AGREED_TO_TERMS_OF_USE audit event rather than a standard user update log. This dedicated event captures critical metadata within its payload, specifically the articleId and groupId, to provide definitive proof of exactly which version of the terms was active at the time of the reset.

Key Benefits:

• Regulatory Compliance: Easily prove exactly which version of your legal terms a user accepted, simplifying audits for GDPR, CCPA, or internal legal reviews.

• Operational Efficiency: Eliminates the need for manual workarounds or technical intervention when legal documents are updated; a single click handles the entire user base.

• Granular Reporting: By using a dedicated audit event instead of a generic update flag, administrators can filter logs more effectively to monitor compliance trends and completion rates.

We’ve introduced the ability to import and export categories and tags directly within the new CMS. This feature allows you to manage your site’s organization in bulk, removing the need to create or edit every individual item one by one.

Key Benefits:

• Saves Time: Quickly set up or update large lists of categories and tags through a single file upload rather than manual entry.

• Better Accuracy: Easily audit and clean up your tags in a spreadsheet to ensure consistent naming and organization across your entire site.

The product currently relies on a legacy CMS alongside a newly developed CMS, requiring parallel maintenance, duplicated functionality, and fragmented content workflows. This increases operational cost, slows down feature delivery, and creates inconsistencies in how content is managed and consumed.

This epic aims to inform the users that we are putting the current CMS in maintainance mode, preparing the field to add the feature flag in next releases

Key Benefits:

• Inform the users about the features set as In Maintenance

During the reviewing of the CMS experience and fixing bugs, we detected some product gaps and improvements that can make the user experience smoother, so this epic’s goal is to tackle them to ensure a stable and reliable user experience.

Key Benefits:

• Allow to search members in a space for non admin users

• Improved category creation

• Filter by space for content structures

• List view for Space home view

Building on the automated database repair routines introduced in 2025.Q4, Liferay DXP continues to expand the set of repair processes that run during the upgrade. Based on additional research into customer upgrade issues, new repair routines automatically identify and correct further sources of database inconsistencies, orphan references, and invalid data — before they cause upgrade failures or performance bottlenecks. These repair routines remain targeted at known issues with data structures only, keeping your critical data content safe. Details of each repair process continue to be provided for review in the Upgrade Report after the database upgrade completes.

Key Benefits:

• Minimize risks for current and future upgrades

• Automates data maintenance
