Unable to create friendly url mapping with javascript in Liferay

I've set up friendly URL routing for my Liferay portlet, and it's working fine when I generate URLs with the standard JSP tags like so: <portlet:renderURL var="resetUrl">     <portlet:param name="start" value="5" /> </portlet:renderURL> which, given my mapping, produces a lovely URL like: localhost:8080/web/guest/welcome/-/myportlet/5 But when I generate URLs using the JavaScript PortletURL module, I get the full unfriendly URL. For instance: var filterUrl = Liferay.PortletURL.createRenderURL(); filterUrl.setPortletId("<%= portletDisplay.getId() %>"); filterUrl.setParameter("start", "5"); location.href = filterUrl; will generate localhost:8080/web/guest/welcome?p_p_id=myportlet_WAR_MyPortletportlet&p_p_lifecycle=0&myportlet_WAR_MyPortletportlet_start=5 So the question is: How can I generate friendly URLs from JavaScript? Solution : Here is the Hack - Just give it a try <portlet:renderURL var="resetUrl">     <portlet:param name="start" value="changeStart" /> </portlet:renderURL> then write javascript and replace param values like this - function createStart(copyNavigationPointURL) {     var start = document.getElementById("navigationPointId").value;     copyNavigationPointURL = copyNavigationPointURL.replace(/changeStart/i,start);     submitForm(document.hrefFm, copyNavigationPointURL); } And you have your friendly url .... localhost:8080/web/guest/welcome/-/myportlet/5 Your are just done, Try & Enjoy the function.....:)

How to migrate existing data and configure to use image.hook.impl or dl.hook.impl in Liferay

Sometimes we have to change the File storage Location through HOOK IMPL to Database or File System.
In that scenario we also have to migrate existing data which is already stored through previous HOOK.

Here is the solution -

1) Go to Document library/image gallery,click Export/import option on the top of rightside of the portlet,
click 'export' button for export the content & save the lar.

2) Stop the server and add "image.hook.impl=com.liferay.portal.image.FileSystemHook" in portal-ext properties
& comment the "#image.hook.impl=com.liferay.portal.image.DatabaseHook" in portal-ext properties.

3) Clear the database cache from serverAdministration and delete work temp folders in tomcat.

4) Start the server, Go to Document library/image gallery and 'import' the lar file.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Add Hidden/Admin portlets in Add more Applications Menu (Liferay)

Most of the requirement from the client comes by saying that they want the same user portlet as available in Control Panel. This can be achieved by below details.

1) Create a hook name addUserToAddApplication.
2) Create structure WEB-INF/jsp/html/portlet/layout_configuration.
3) copy view_category.jsp from source html/portlet/layout_configuration.
4) Add below lines in your jsp on line no 53 just above the while loop -

//   Use your own Category.

if(Validator.equals(portletCategory.getName(),"CATEGORY.NAME"))
{
     // 125 is portlet id of ENTERPRISE_ADMIN_USER PORTLET.

Portlet userportlet = PortletLocalServiceUtil.getPortletById(user.getCompanyId(), "125");
portlets.add(userportlet);
}

5) Deploy your hook.
6) Check your Add Application menu, you are free to add user portlet to your page.
