Issue

  • How do I upgrade a 7.x Maven theme to be a Maven theme for any next 7.x version?

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.0+

Resolution

  • It should be possible to update the pom.xml to be compliant with the new version and then build the theme. For, example, if you wish to upgrade from 7.0/7.1 to 7.2:

    1. blade create -t theme simpleTheme -v 7.2 -b maven
    2. compare pom.xml in simpleTheme/pom.xml to your own theme's pom.xml
    3. upgrade the versions of all relevant tools
    4. Run mvn verify to build the theme
