Issue

  • The view to assign users to a given role can be paginated. When SPA is disabled, only the users selected from the last page are effectively selected: those selected in previous pages are discarded.
  • This can happen with similar scenarios where several items can be assigned to an entity by navigating through a paginated list.

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.1+

Resolution

  • When SPA is disabled, navigating from page to page means a full page refresh, as it traditionally was in earlier versions, losing previously selected items.
  • In order to make the paginated multi-selection fully functional, you should ensure that SPA is active by setting the portal property javascript.single.page.application.enabled=true.
