Background image is managed by CSS.

In your theme, you could add code to portal_normal.vm that would assign a class to the body based upon the current page.

Right, so in your portal_normal.vm you determine which page is being rendered. Add an appropriate class to the <body /> tag that has the CSS for the background image and you're done.

This is not a 'fixed' solution, it would allow you to determine the class to add to the <body /> tag dynamically. Class changes, background image changes. QED.

Hi, to add dynamic bg image, you can define bg class(s) for page(s) body in css any can apply that you can apply on In your theme "portal_normal.vm" file. you can apply the condition to apply particular class of css on basis of page id.

Hi,

You could set a custom attribute on the page and pre-fill this with a value of an image name that is the default. Then you can set the background image for each page so it can be configured by a community admin or admin (or anybody who is allowed to change your page settings).

This can then be used to either set a class for the body element or set the image directly in a style setting of your page header style element.

I find David's one the best solution, I had a similar problem because I wanted to change the header banner in every page, but this was part of my theme, so in my portal-normal.vm I wrote:

#set ($headerbase = "header-")
#set ($page_name = $page.getName($locale))
#set ($header_id = "$headerbase$page_name")

<div id= $header_id class="headerpictures"></div>

and in custom.css I could set a background image based on the class "headerpictures", that is always the same, or using the id created dynamically for every page in order to have a custom banner in every page.

It's basically what most of you suggested, but if Biswajit didn't solve yet, I hope a bit of code could help ;)

You can follow IPC "Inter portlet communication" concept here.

Please give me solution for this immediately. Its urgent.

1. I created two portlets.
2. First- Trigger Portlet and Second-Listener Portlet.
3. I added that two portlets on a page. First at left side and second at right side.
4. I have given two hyperlinks on Trigger Portlet.
5. When i click on any particular link, I have to show some data whatever i have to show on Listener Portlet.
6. Again when i click on another hyperlink i have to show data on the same Listener Portlet.

I resolved this problem using javascript. But when i access that portal as a administrator at that time listener portlet works fine. But when i access as a user at that time listener portlet is not showing output whatever it has to show. Please give me solution for this.

I would create a theme setting in liferay-look-and-feel.xml

<setting configurable="true" key="header-image-url" type="text"/>

then in init_custom.vm

#if ($theme_settings.header-image-url)
#set ($header_image_url = $theme_settings.header-image-url.data
#else
#set ($header_image_url = ${image_folder} + "custom/default_background.jpg")
#end

<style>
body{
background: url($header_image_url);
}
</style>

END of init_custom.vm

Then manage page and add the url to the setting.

PRO: no need to update theme css
