Issue

  • In previous versions of Liferay DXP, users could configure portlets such as the Asset Publisher on a content page (blank page) without needing to enter the "edit" view.

Environment

  • Liferay DXP Quarterly Releases

Resolution

  • This is expected behavior, as editing a content page outside the "edit" view can lead to possible data loss, this feature has been removed. As such, users now need to edit the page to configure the portlets.

Additional Information

  • This is not the case for Widget Pages, as they only have one view.
