How to change the site name

[Cezariusz Marek，修改在7 年前。]

I've started Liferay 7.0 GA3 bundled with Tomcat, changed database driver to PostgreSQL, and restarted. In the initial configuration wizard I've entered the site name with a non-English character, and for some reason it has been saved to the database with a wrong encoding.

How do I change the site name? I cannot find it anywhere. I've tried Control Panel -> Sites -> Sites -> Edit, but the site name is only on the black bar at top of the page, and there is no field to edit it. I've tried to search for the solution, but all answers were related to version 6, and they apparently do not apply to version 7.

I've found it by accident, looking for something else: Control Panel -> Configuration -> Instance Settings -> Configuration -> General -> Name.

Hi Cezariusz Marek,

Go to Control Panel -> your site -> Configuration-> Site Settings.
There is one field called "Name".

Hi,

Click on the site name that you want to change -> Configuration ->Site Settings - Edit the name of the site..

Devang Patel, Virat sen,

Where do you see the field with the site name here?

Hi Cezariusz Marek,

The siteName which you edit is your default LR site.
You didn't mention that you want to change LR's default site Name(Instance), So I suggested for newly created site.
Refer the below screenshot for new site.

Devang

I'm a novice user, I had no idea there is a difference between the default site and a new site. Thanks for trying to help though.

Hi,

Do you know how to import resouces in LR's default site using resource importer. i f i create a new site they get imported but with my existing default site they are not getting imported. I am using Liferay DXP 7.1

[Tom Aerts，修改在5 年前。]

To Change the default site's name (LR 7.1), run this script under Server Admin > Script

import com.liferay.portal.kernel.service.*;
import com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.*;

result = GroupLocalServiceUtil.search(PortalUtil.getDefaultCompanyId(), null, "Liferay DXP", null, null, false, 0, 1).get(0);
company = CompanyLocalServiceUtil.getCompany(result.getCompanyId())
company.getAccount().setName("New Site Name")
company.getAccount().persist()

Control Panel / Configuration / Instance Settings. It's the first input field.
For all other sites in their own settings.

In DXP 7.1 After I changed from "Control Panel / Configuration / Instance Settings. It's the first input field."  it's working fine but after restart the server it's back again as "Liferay DXP" so how I can fix this issue

It is  a weird issue. Please check the "Group" table in DB after changing the Site name.

Sorry i thought you are trying to change the Site name. ( subject of the title misguided )

OK got it, You are changing the instance name of the portal, then it should be changed in Account_ table. 

Please check the portal-ext.properties if any default instance name is mentioned?

I checked liferay code and I found the issue in "com.liferay.portal.properties.swapper.internal.DefaultCompanyNameSwapper" so I ovrride this property in Portal-ext "company.default.name=NewName" and should take affect but not working

Did you check removing the property from portal-ext and changing the name through control panel?
