Hi !

Hi i am using crystal x theme can anybody will tell me where in portal_normal.vm file i will have to make changes so that i can add header and footer in theme

You can find the portal_normal.vm file under your liferay-portal-/tomcat-/webapps/crystalx-theme/templates. If you want to add something in your header and footer, add your code under <head></head> and <div id="footer"></div> of your portal_normal.vm file.

how to change that background gradation as image is not there of that type. please help me in that sort......

For this, you need to modify in the custom.css file which is under liferay-portal-/tomcat-/webapps/crystalx-theme/css.

You can also create your theme by using plugins sdk and do these type of changes. If you want your theme to be like crystal-x then you can copy the files and use it in your own theme and modify it as per your requirement.

Thanks,
Bavithra Rajendran

Hi,

I have changed the look and feel of portal_normal.vm. But it is not reflecting in browser ASAP (approximatly it is taking 5 to 6 mins to refresh). if i restart the Tomcat(webserver), then it got update.

You need to enable several developer flags to disable caching and other items that are necessary when doing theme development. Check out this thread for details.

One more Query


Currently in Liferay 5.2.3, in Chat portlet only 20 users are visible(Ref.Screenshot).

How to extend this limit in chat portlet?

For this I have add the below code in portlet.porperties(\liferay-portal-5.2.3\tomcat-6.0.18\webapps\Chat\WEB-INF\src\)

buddy.list.maxbuddies=500

But there is no change in output. emoticon

Hi James,

I got the Patch file(patch.diff) for Chat portlet(liferay 5.2.3).

How to apply this patch.diff file in 5.2.3 bundle?.

whether we have to place this file(patch.diff) under deploy folder?

Because I created a file called Buddies.jsp, pasted the particular code in that file.

I restarted the webserver, But there is no change in Chat Portlet emoticon


Please help us on this.
