Other Page Types

Content pages are the most commonly used page type, but there are uses for the other page types.

Two of these page types, Full Page Application and Panel, are deprecated as of Liferay DXP 2026.Q3 and are scheduled for removal in a future major release. Both are governed by the Widget Pages deprecation feature flag, which restores both types when enabled.

Utility Pages

Utility pages are content pages you can apply to system-level pages, like 404 error pages. See Types of Utility Pages for more information.

You can create 404 error page like this one using a utility page.

Full Page Application

Deprecated for Liferay DXP 2026.Q3+

The Full Page Application page type displays a single application that fills the entire page. See Using the Full Page Application Page for more information.

A full page application page displays a single application that spans the entire width of the page.

On a new installation, the Full Page Application type does not appear in the page creation wizard. On an upgraded installation, the type still appears and is marked Deprecated. Existing full page application pages continue to work and remain editable. No converter exists for this type, so replacing a page means adding the same widget to a content page and scoping it.

Page Set

The Page Set option creates a container for subpages that is not actually a page itself.

A page set page acts as a container for other pages.

Link to a Page

The Link to a Page of This Site option links to a page within the same site. This is often used to make a page available in multiple parts of a site’s hierarchy.

Panel

Deprecated for Liferay DXP 2026.Q3+

The Panel option creates a page containing several applications as selected by an administrator, but only one appears at a time. Users select the widget they want to display from a menu on the left side of the page. The selected application takes up the entire page on the right side.

A panel page shows a list of configured applications on the left and the chosen application on the right.

On a new installation, the Panel type does not appear in the page creation wizard. On an upgraded installation, the type still appears and is marked Deprecated. Existing panel pages continue to work and remain editable. No converter exists for this type, and content pages have no direct equivalent to the panel’s single-application menu, so replacing a panel page means rebuilding its applications as one or more content pages.
