Hi there, this post dedicated to the topic of SSO authentication within Liferay 7 DXP version. Single sign-on is a pretty popular property that allows users to access multiple applications using same credentials without re-login.

In Liferay 6 when you needed to change default permission set for some resource, then Ext plugin could be used to override such definitions. The reason of Ext using was the point that all permission definitions were stored in portal-impl.jar and Ext was the only way to override it. Starting from Liferay 7 the portal is moving to OSGi architecture where the other rules take place. Since now each OSGi module (e.g. Calendar) has its permissions defined in its own module, and not in the core of the portal. That’s why a new approach should be applied and this post shows how to achieve this.

Alfresco’s out of the box search engine Solr is configured in a way that searching of special characters is disabled by default. So, for instance, if you would like to find all documents in a system containing “c++” string then you may get tons (depending on the uploaded documents amount) of results that contain “C”-character without “++”-signs in its name and content: document content Fusce dapibus, tellus ac cursus commodo, search key c++, results “Fusce”, “ac”, “cursus”, “commodo”. In order to configure the correct search behavior please follow down to read current post.

This article describes how to build already existing Theme and customize it using Liferay SDK Ant builder.

Hi everyone, I’m writing this post to describe an installation process of Odoo and its debug in Eclipse IDE on Windows. There are articles exist on the internet dedicated to this theme, but none of them covers this task in relation to Odoo version 10.

It’s well known, that Liferay includes special types of portlets called PHP Portlets which allow to use a standard PHP code in order to provide desired functionality.

Such common issues are covered in this post, solutions to them are also provided.

During Liferay customizations one may need to embed playable videos to portal: to a body of a page or to a popup.
