Issue

  • I have an issue with the feature flags:
    feature.flag.LPD-11131=true and feature.flag.LPD-35013=true
  • I set both features in the portal-ext.properties file in 2025.q1.6-lts. However, after started the instance the features are not enabled by default. The Wiki and Message boards portlets are not available in the UI. 
  • I need to have these features enabled by default system wide. I cannot enable them from the instance settings because we have a lot of instances.

Environment

  • Liferay Quarterly Release 2025.q1.6-lts

Resolution

  • to make the feature flag enabled by default, you will need to set the following properties into your portal-ext.properties file in 2025.q1.6-lts
    feature.flag.LPD-11131.system=true

    feature.flag.LPD-11131=true

    feature.flag.LPD-35013=true

    feature.flag.LPD-35013.system=true
    With the system=true part the features will be enabled by default under the System Settings and both Wiki and message boards will be available on the UI.
