Liferay articles

Liferay articles can be written by any Liferay user, to be published on the Arena site for patrons to read and comment upon. Liferay articles use the Web content display portlet.

Starting with Arena 4.0, you are recommended to start using Liferay articles instead of Arena articles. The workflow in Liferay articles is more intuitive and it is easier to work with images. There is also support for version handling and restoring of deleted articles. Articles can be published and unpublished at a certain date and time. Arena articles will still be supported but will not be further developed.

Liferay articles can only be shared locally; not with other Arena sites. Liferay articles cannot be linked to catalogue records – Staff picks is used for this functionality.

You find articles and assets related to these, such as the Documents and media library, forms, tags and categories, under Content in the administration menu.
