Liferay Themes are used to customize the default layout and look & feel for portal pages.

They are hot-deployable plugins.

Themes use velocity and freemarker templates to customize the styles and layout of the portal pages.

They can be either applied to single page, a single site or to the entire portal.

Themes in Liferay are really powerful, as you can do:

  • you can call different portal services and custom services from the theme.
  • include OOTB or custom portlets dynamically in the theme, i.e. as soon as you apply the theme to a page it will render the portlet included in the theme, you don't have to add the portlet from the add menu.
  • A lot of configurable settings can be built using the theme for advance control.
