Updating 6.2 Init Custom Theme Template

Updating 6.2 Theme Templates

Step 3 of 3

The Lunar Resort theme has a couple theme settings defined in init_custom.ftl. The syntax has changed slightly in Liferay DXP 7.2. Follow these steps to update the theme setting syntax:

1. Replace the getterUtil.getBoolean(theme_settings method with getterUtil.getBoolean(themeDisplay.getThemeSetting:

   Original:

   <#assign show_breadcrumbs = 
   getterUtil.getBoolean(theme_settings["show-breadcrumbs"])/>
   
   <#assign show_page_title = 
   getterUtil.getBoolean(theme_settings["show-page-title"])/>
   

   Updated:

   <#assign show_breadcrumbs = 
   getterUtil.getBoolean(themeDisplay.getThemeSetting("show-breadcrumbs"))/>
   
   <#assign show_page_title = 
   getterUtil.getBoolean(themeDisplay.getThemeSetting("show-page-title"))/>
   

2. Although the Lunar Resort theme doesn’t have any String variables, you would replace the getterUtil.getString(theme_settings method with themeDisplay.getThemeSetting:

   Original:

   <#assign string_setting = 
   getterUtil.getString(theme_settings["my-string-key"])/>
   

   Updated:

   <#assign string_setting = 
   themeDisplay.getThemeSetting("my-string-key")/>
   

Awesome! The theme templates are updated. You can always compare theme templates with the updated ones found in the _unstyled theme, if you’re unsure if something has changed. Refer to the suggested changes that the Gulp upgrade task reports for the theme.
