Issue
- When clicking on an asset shown in an Asset Publisher, the asset's content can be configured to show the content in the same portlet or in a default one. In either case, the page will scroll to where the asset publisher is if it's located downwards in the page.
-
Reproduction Steps:
i) On a clean instance, create a widget page
ii) Add several portlets to this page and an asset publisher at the bottom of the page in order to clearly see the scrolling
iii) On this page set this asset publisher as the default asset publisher for this page
iv) Create a basic web content and set this page as its display page
v) Browse to this page and, in the asset publisher, click on this content's title
Expected behavior: Have a way to configure if:
(i) Users want the page to be scrolled to where the asset publisher is
(ii) Users want to show the page from the top
(iii) The default value of this configuration should be option 1
Observed behavior: The page is scrolled down showing the asset publisher
Environment
- Liferay DXP 7.1
- Liferay DXP 7.2
Resolution
-
The observed behavior in all versions of Liferay from DXP 7.1 is the expected behavior of the portal and it was introduced from LPS-70268
- After that LPS, evaluated the possibility of making said behavior customizable, though it was determined that if this feature is provided, propagating the change to maintenance branches such as 7.1 would be unfeasible.
- However, this missing functionality is fixed in Liferay DXP 7.2 Fix Pack 15
