Liferay 6.1: Portal Themes and Color Schemes


Liferay allows a Portal Theme to contain different color schemes. Portal Administrators can change the color schemes of the portal while maintaining the same theme.

1) Start Liferay Server.

2) Open Liferay Portal Home.


3) Log into the portal using test@liferay.com credential.



4) The Liferay Portal Front page is displayed. (http://localhost:8080/web/guest/home)
Liferay Portal is using Classic Theme and Blue Color Scheme.


5) Go to Control Panel.



6) Go to Liferay/Site Pages.


7) Notice that in the main window, in the Look and Section, there is a sub-section Color Schemes.
There are three color schemes; Blue,Green and Orange.


8) Change Color Scheme to Orange.
8.1) Click Orange radio button.


8.2) In the Look and Feel Control Box, Click Save.



8.3) Get a success message.


8.4)  Reload The Liferay Portal Front page. (http://localhost:8080/web/guest/home)
Liferay Portal now looks orangish.


8.5) If you compare it (the above screenshot) against step 4 (the below screenshot), you might notice the original looks bluish.


8.6) Changing Color Scheme to Green Color will produce a greenish output.
