12:15 AM Hey Christoph, The key challenge here is that Liferay is used for a wide variety of scenarios and what makes sense in some doesn't make sense in others. For complex sites (specially public facing) the decoupling of pages and menus makes the most sense and we had been receiving a lot of feedback in this direction over the years. At the same time, for simpler scenarios such as intranets or collaborative workspaces it's much simpler to have the page hierarchy act as the menu. That way, pages and navigation are managed all at once. Only in advanced cases it's desired to have some extra menus (which are considered secondary). During the last few weeks, we've gathered all the feedback for 7.1 and prior to that and came up with several solutions to try to get the best of the previous approach and the new one. The final solution we found as the best compromise includes re-enabling the page hierarchy as the navigation for a site when desired, but also allowing decoupled navigation menus to be used along side (or instead of). We are starting this week the development of the first steps which will be backported to 7.1. All details can be found at LPS-85618 In addition to these first steps, we will continue doing further improvements. I'm actually thinking of proposing an unconference session at DevCon to discuss this topic, so it would be great if you could join.

12:31 PM Got it. It makes sense to me. [~david.truong], do you think this is something that could be prioritized by the Core Infra team?

12:51 PM Thanks [~carlos.sierra]. [~anthony.chu] after reading the explanation from Carlos I opened the code for RSSPortlet and I saw this at the top: {code:java} @Component( configurationPid = &#034;com.liferay.rss.web.internal.configuration.RSSWebCacheConfiguration&#034;, {code} That means that for the steps to work, the name of the configuration file needs to be {code:java} com.liferay.rss.web.internal.configuration.RSSWebCacheConfiguration.config {code} Instead of the fully qualified name.
