In previous post we have seen adding the site template and page template programatically . If you want to look into those posts again please follow the links below. Creation of Site Template http://liferaytutorial.blogspot.in/2015/03/adding-site-template-programmatically.html Creation of Page Template http://liferaytutorial.blogspot.in/2015/03/adding-page-template-in-liferay.html Sometimes it required to add the portlet to layout and apply theme programatically. So here is the code, Here we are applying the 2 column layout with 1st column as " MessageBoard (19)" and 2nd column as " Search (3)" and " Blog (33)" portlets Also applying the theme "label_WAR_labeltheme. // Updating the column and Portlets for the pagetemplate LayoutPrototype layoutPrototype = LayoutPrototypeLocalServiceUtil.getLayoutProtoType(10011l); Layout layout = layoutPrototype.getLayout(); LayoutTypePortlet layoutTypePortlet =(LayoutTypePortlet)layout.getL

So how we can do that? Here is as follows, I have a theme called label and themeid is label_WAR_labeltheme . As we know that SiteTemplate is stored in the LayoutSetProtoType table. So we can get the template from the layoutsetprototypeutil LayoutSetPrototype layoutSetProtoType = LayoutSetPrototypeUtil.get(----------------); LayoutSetLocalServiceUtil.updateLookAndFeel(layoutSetPrototype.getGroupId(), "label_WAR_labeltheme", "01", "",false); Thats it we have applied the

We know that we can create the page template from the control panel, What if we want to create programmatically. So here we go, 1. We are reterving the page template name form the portlet.properties. If you want to know how to create the portlet.properties and retrieve follow the below link. http://liferaytutorial.blogspot.in/2013/03/how-to-read-values-from-properties-file.html So here i am retrieving the page template name as page.template from portlet.properties file. String pageTemplateNames = PortletProps.get("page.template"); In Portlet. properties page.template = Home,Test Before adding the page template we are checking weather page template exists or not by dynamicQuery , because we don't have any finder method to check the page template by name. Here i am checking by descrition beacause name will be storing as JSON format in DB. List<LayoutPrototype> layoutProtoTypeList = null; DynamicQuery dynamicQuery = DynamicQueryFactoryUti

In Liferay it is simple to add the add the DatePicker. Liferay already had datepicker taglib, so here we go . Creating the calendar object, for today date. Calendar cal = CalendarFactoryUtil.getCalendar(timeZone, locale); int startDateValue = cal.get(Calendar.DATE); int startMonthValue = cal.get(Calendar.MONTH); int startYearValue = cal.get(Calendar.YEAR); Implementing the date picker, <aui:fieldset> <aui:field-wrapper label="start-date"> </aui:field-wrapper></aui:fieldset> <div class="field-row"> <liferay-ui:input-date dayparam="schedulerStartDateDay" dayvalue="&lt;%=startDateValue %&gt;" disabled="&lt;%= false %&gt;" monthparam="schedulerStartDateMonth" monthvalue="&lt;%=startMonthValue%&gt;" name="startDate" yearparam="schedulerStartDateYear" yearvalue="&lt;%=startYearValue%&gt;"> </liferay-u
