I'm trying to make some changes in search and navigation product pages at storefront. For my modifications, I modified productListerGridItem.tag and productListerItem.tag, but nothing happens at storefront, I cant see my modifications.
The structure of my storefront tag folder after sync with addon:
(addon has been previously installed following basic instructions)
The tag must be used by searchresults gridcomponent.jsp cms component. I guess there is no need to explicitly modify the path to product taglib, shouldn't it work automatically? Maybe I'm missing something?

I need to obtain a property that is set in portal-ext.properties from my theme's portal_normal.ftl file. Using Liferay 7.
All my searches have come up short, but I can't believe I'm the first one to have this need.
For background, I need to display a web content that is stored in the global site. This needs to be displayed on every site, which is why it's going into the theme. It also needs to be updated by the content editors, so the content can't be included in the theme.
I can display the web content easily, using the journalArticleLocalService like this
journalArticleLocalService.fetchArticle(10197,"1260480")
but I obviously don't want to hard code the group ID and article ID like this; and they are already stored in portal-ext.properties for another reason.
Also, I know about theme configuration values, I use them for a lot of other configuration needs, but those require the values to be entered for each site and there are hundreds of sites in our implementation so this is not an option.
Thanks in advance for any solutions or advice you can provide.
Properties are (as far as I know) not available in Liferay's Freemarker Templates - and as everything in Liferay tries to phase them out in favor of OSGi based configuration) I'd not recommend keeping up the configuration there. Any change requires a restart of the portal - proper configuration would make them hot-changeable.
However, as you now have this situation and probably look for a quick solution: You can create a TemplateContextContributor and make the required values available for your template.
Is it possible to generate a direct admin link to the Media Library App on a specific Gallery and Folder Path?
In the example above, I'd like to have a link to Media Library Gallery, with the Test folder selected.
I've tried setting the objectid (library id) as such http://localhost:51872/Admin/CMSAdministration.aspx?objectid=3#436564ee-89e9-4719-939a-0d7b57ece744 but doesn't seem to work.
I'm on a latest hotfix v8 site.
I don't think that it's possible, because Kentico UI has been built on WebForms and it uses UpdatePanels for ajax POST calls and all values related to the current path are held in hidden inputs. In other words you can only update basic page UI via Post requests with specific values in inputs.
I have created portlets for liferay and prepare couple of pages. Now I want to create installation script, which create pages definition in customer liferay server. I know that pages export/import is possible using LAR file, but this could be done only manualy, or using remote publishing which i am not able to do.
I was searching on net and found ddm tool. Which should be able to do that. Unfortunately i'm not able to get it work as it export only web content, blogs, wikis, etc, but not pages with portlets. It is probably because one of the condition is "Every Template must be assigned to a Structure. Don't create any templates on the Liferay server which does not have a structure connected to it.
". But how can I assign page to structure ? Cant find anything.
Or is there any other option for automatic page creation, which could be used ?
In case you created a custom theme, you can easily use the "resources importer" to create an entire site via the "sitemap.json" file (define pages: choose layout, assign portlets to the columns, ...). You can also export existing content as xml from the current instance and import them via the theme. Same thing for web content structures and templates.

Unfortunately theme is produced by another supplier, so this solution isn't suitable for me.
at the end i find working solution which consist of following steps:
create plugin hook
in hook setup upgrade process
in the upgrade process create pages with appropriate layout, friendlyUrl, etc. All these is possible to do using liferay api

We set up the SharePoint 12 hive folder for a custom theme with a new xml entry and folder.
Is everything required for a custom theme living in the theme folder? I'm asking because we are seeing CSS files that appear to be dynamically named rendered on SharePoint pages in the folder that are not actually in the folder.
Will we have to use SPD and custom site changes to get a custom theme to work?
I've got a designer working only in the theme folder, but he is seeing rendered css that he can't get to. He is not using SPD
That 1011-65001 squence file is found nowhere? what is that an where can I find it. Any way to have my custom theme all hard fixed name css files in that folder without using SPD?
/_themes/MYNEWFOLDER/MYNEWTHEME1011-65001.css?rev=12%2E0%2E0%2E6421
===
Update: I just realzed that css is creatd when I apply the theme and so it's in my _themes site folder. But now, when I attempt to re-apply the theme, that was working before, now i get a write error on _themes.
I can answer your first query why its dyanamic name this is because themes which you installed are ghosted version and when you apply them an unghosted version is created for the specific site where it is applied. so a dyanamic naming is required and it cannot be hard coded in MOSS even if you try using SPD you can do it but you have to remove the theming then.
the same you have also have notified in update that the css name is changed only when you apply it.
regarding your second issue of reapplying it did you try applying another them and then back to first one and is giving error then please check the 12 hive logs it will give you cause of failure and if still you are not able to figure out the same plz share the relavent log here we will try to help you
I've downloaded Drupal 6 and installed it on my local server, and ported a basic web site as a custom theme. I've set this as the default theme and everything works okay; the page appears nice with all the images and layout.
The problem is that now, no matter what I type as the URL I always get to my page. So how can I go to the admin page? /q=user does not work. I can change the theme from the database but that is not what I want. I just want to keep this theme and be able to access all the Drupal functionality.
For the custom page i've created the page.tpl.php and .info file. Along with the CSS file I've put them all in a new folder in the themes directory.
#abhaga's answer is spot on - you've turned the entire site's theme into a single page's HTML, so they're all going to be the same.
If you'd like to avoid glitching the admin side of things with a bad template file, you can set one of the core themes as your "administration theme" (in Site Configuration) - that way, the admin backend will always use that theme regardless of the other templates.
Ah! Basically page.tpl.php specifies the over all structure of site. Look at the original page.tpl.php file - it will be printing a variable called $content somewhere. That is the variable holding all the content of your specific page. You will need to print it at appropriate place in your pge.tpl.php
