I can't access Liferay's SVN! What happened?
The following command should now be used for anonymous access to Liferay source code:

svn co svn://svn.liferay.com/repos/public/portal/trunk --username guest --password ""

Using Liferay FAQ

How to redirect to a new page after user logged in successfully?
Please look here Customizing the default page
I configured URL of the portal to be different from localhost:8080, but some of the links still go there (logo, home link). How to change it?
Go to Enterprise Admin portlet -> Settings. You can change the host name there as well as some other things like logo, language, timezone, etc.
I have created a page, then i added a portlet. I can see all the icons(maximise,minimise, close etc ...) , but I want to disable them for some of the users.
To disable icons you need to login as non-administrator user. Administrator by default has all the permissions - to maximize, configure, close, etc. If you create a new user and just add the user to community, the user by default can't change the portlets, it can just view.
How do I set session timeout?
Read this wiki article: Session Timeout
Where do I find properties files (portal.properties, portal-ext.properties, system.properties)?
You usually need to modify portal-ext.properties properties, but you might want to look at the default values in portal.properties.

If you've downloaded and unzipped the portal-source you can find the portal.properties and system.properties file in
../source/portal-impl/classes folder

Your portal-ext.properties file will usually be deployed to the Liferay Home Directory (one directory above your app server directory). Alternatively, it can be placed on the class path of the webapp, ../tomcat-5.5.23/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes .

If you don't have the source you can look at the jar file - portal-impl.jar

Development FAQ

How to redirect to a new page after user logged in successfully?
Please look here Customizing the default page
How to deploy a portlet or make sure it is deployed successfully?
Read the wiki pages:
Hot Deploy Troubleshooting
Exceptions / Problems with deployment
How do I get user information about a user?
The JSR-168 remote user is mapped to the user ID in Liferay. To obtain the User object (which holds the field for the screen name), you have to make a call once you've retrieved the JSR-168 remote user:
1
2String userId = renderRequest.getRemoteUser();
3User user = UserServiceUtil.getUserById(Long.parseLong(userId));
How do I develop a Portlet?
Portlet Development
How do I work with the EXT environment?
The Ext (Extension) Plugin is the preferred mechanism for extending and augmenting Liferay's core behavior. Ext plugins have been created as an evolution of the extension environment provided in Liferay 5.2 and previous versions of Liferay.
Working with Ext Plugins
Where can I find documentation for Liferay version x.x.xx?
How do I add namespace to a javascript function or <div> id?

You can use <portlet:namespace /> before function name ordiv id. If you want to use it in other places, CDATA section for example you can look at this post for more details:

How to use namespaces
How do I add a connection pool or access LiferayPool from my app?

In tomcat you have to place the pool in the global classloader...

for example, add this to server.xml inside the "GlobalNamingResources":

1 
2 <GlobalNamingResources>
3
4       ....
5
6    <Resource
7       name="LiferayPool"
8       auth="Container"
9       type="javax.sql.DataSource"
10       driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
11
12url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/lportal?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8"
13       username="xxx"
14       password="xxx"
15       maxActive="100"
16       maxIdle="30"
17       maxWait="10000"
18    />
19
20    <Resource
21       name="LiferayMailSession"
22       auth="Container"
23       type="javax.mail.Session"
24       mail.transport.protocol="smtp"
25       mail.smtp.host="192.168.0.1"
26    />
27 </GlobalNamingResources>

Then in all the webapps that want to use this pool, setup their
context.xml (in the case of the portal webapp, in ROOT.xml) to contain
the following:

1 <ResourceLink name="jdbc/LiferayPool" global="LiferayPool"/>
2 <ResourceLink name="mail/MailSession" global="LiferayMailSession"/>

Don't forget the delete the other references having the same names...

Now all your webapps can use the same pool.

OR

you can use com.liferay.portal.kernel.jndi.PortalJNDIUtil.getDataSource() from any portlet.
How do I get my current community name?

long x = themeDisplay.getPortletGroupId()
Group group = GroupLocalServiceUtil.getGroup(x);
group.getDescriptiveName() or group.getName()

Re: [Liferay Forums][Liferay English]Does Life ray support Data caching

2008-03-06T00:51:58Z

> Please let me know whether Liferay supports Data caching If yes what are the advantages of having it

Liferay uses caching in two tiers... hibernate caching (a.k.a. sql
result sets and objects), and additionally in other places where post
processed content is cached to reduce costly CPU cycles...

The benefit? It's always much faster to load from memory than either
from disk or DB... updates trigger cache purges of course.

RE: Need help with portlets and children pages within private pages

2007-12-13T18:12:25Z

i looked and only saw wiki articles for updating major and minor releases, but nothing on how to upgrade an "update release" so i wrote an article on it. see here: http://wiki.liferay.com/index.php/Upgrade_Instructions_for_Update_Releases_x.x.1

if you have other questions about it.. i dont know if you have done so already.. but create a new thread and put a link in here.. so other people can search for it. hope this is helpful.
