Theme for private user page

[Paul Schmidt, geändert vor 11 Jahren.]

Hello community,

I created a page, set the theme and exported the configuration as lar file.

I added these entries to my portal-ext.properties:

default.user.private.layouts.lar=${liferay.home}/default_private_userpage.lar
default.user.private.layouts.enable=true
default.user.public.layouts.enabled=false
default.user.private.layout.regular.theme.id=mytheme_WAR_mytheme (it's the entry from layout table in Liferay database)

The I created a new user and logged in.

When I go to his private user page, I get an exeption:

An unexpected system error occurred. 
 javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: org.apache.velocity.exception.MethodInvocationException: Invocation of method 'include' in class com.liferay.taglib.util.VelocityTaglib threw exception java.lang.NullPointerException at _SERVLET_CONTEXT_/html/themes/classic/templates/portal_normal.vm[line 83, column 8]

It seems, that the configured theme is not used.

I tried to export the lar with theme options checked and unchecked. No changes.
For every try, I created a new user.

What is wrong with my configuration.

I used it for my portal. It was working fine.

However I didn't used following property:
default.user.private.layout.regular.theme.id=

Can you please try after commenting/removing this property ?

I tried again two exports (with/out theme options) and two new users. Same result.

Is the theme applied on user classic or your custom mytheme?
If your custom them - do you have certain conditions in your theme which is causing this exception? Maybe you can check this once.

I want all new private userpages to have my custom theme.
The exeption thrown is not on my custom theme, because a vm file is referenced.

My theme is written in Freemarker (ftl)

Does anybody else have a hint for me?

Hi!

Did you ever find a solution to this? I'm facing the same issue...

Thanks,

Flor.

Using a custom side template is working with the portal-ext.properties params.

The only unsolved issue is the theme problem.

Because of that we used another way to achieve our target.
We are using one public page and reading the required parameters from user object. Its a really dirty workaround because we need many custom fields and lots of processing overhead.

What a pity... I have the theme problem too... and I can't use a public page.

Ok, thanks for sharing Paul.

Hey, my problem got solved. I changed the name of the page, it had a dash on it.

Is it possible that this was the cause???

[Paul Schmidt, geändert vor 11 Jahren.]

Unfortunately not. My page was named "Home"

[Florencia Gadea, geändert vor 11 Jahren.]

One more test. Did you uncheck the 'hidden' checkbox? (if checked)

[Paul Schmidt, geändert vor 11 Jahren.]

The page wasn't hidden.
