How to remove "Terms of use" page by using Hook in Liferay

The first time users log into Liferay Portal, they’re presented with a “terms of use” page. Users must agree to the terms of use in order to continue. This feature is controlled by a property
in Liferay’s default portal.properties file that looks like this:

terms.of.use.required=true

we can configure a hook to turn off this feature by changing the property from true

to false.

Step 1:First, we meed to configure our hook to override properties by editing liferay-hook.xml

Open the liferay-hook.xml file from our project’s docroot/WEB-INF folder of our example-hook (what we created in previous post)

configure our hook to override properties by editing liferay-hook.xml to look like this:

liferay-hook.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE hook PUBLIC "-//Liferay//DTD Hook 6.2.0//EN" "http://www.liferay.com/dtd/liferay-hook_6_2_0.dtd">

<hook>
<portal-properties>portal.properties</portal-properties>
<custom-jsp-dir>/META-INF/custom_jsps</custom-jsp-dir>

</hook>

Step 2: open portal.properties file from our project’s docroot/WEB-INF/src folder
and put this
terms.of.use.required=false

Step 3: Save and close this file And deploy our hook

Create a new user and log in. The Terms of Use page should not be there
New users won’t need to accept the terms of service,and we won’t need to restart our portal for this to take effect.

NOTE:if you wanted to revert this property back to the default behavior, all you would need to do is undeploy the hook, and the portal would immediately revert without the need for a restart.

Customizing (Changing) content of terms_of_use using Hook

First we need to create a hook .Here we create Hook by name example-hook

Steps for creating hook
1) New Liferay Plugin Project give the project name as example-hook
2) Select plugin type Hook
3)Finish

Now we will modify your portal’s Terms of Use page.

1)Open the liferay-hook.xml file from your project’s docroot/WEB-INF folder in Liferay IDE

2)Select the Custom JSPs folder from the outline to bring up the custom JSP options. Select the checkbox Customize Liferay Portal JSPs and create the default custom JSP folder /META- INF/custom_jsps, by clicking the icon that has the three yellow diamonds.

3)Add to the listing of custom JSPs by clicking the plus icon and specifying Portal’s html/portal/terms_of_use.jsp file. Hint, the browse icon on the right-hand side within the custom JSP text field simplifies finding the JSP you want to customize. It lets you scroll through the JSPs that are accessible and lets you specify key words to narrow your search.

4) Save it

5)Open your hook’s docroot/META-INF/custom_jsps/html/portal/terms_of_use.jsp file and modify it as you want.

Note, lots of errors will show in the editor because the resources used in the JSP (e.g., PortalUtil) are not available in the project; but they’ll be available from the portal once the hook plugin is deployed to the portal server.

6)Deploy your hook and wait until it is deployed successfully.

7)Create a new user and log in. The Terms of Use page should include the changes you made above.

NOTE

Now there are two Terms of Use JSP files in the liferay-portal-[version]/tomcat-[tomcat-version]/webapps/ROOT/html/portal directory. One is called terms_of_use.jsp and another terms_of_use.portal.jsp. terms_of_use.jsp is your hook’s version, while terms_of_use.portal.jsp is the original. To revert back to the original, undeploy your hook. Your replacement JSP is removed, and the .portal.jsp file is automatically renamed, taking its place. You can override any JSP in the Liferay core, while retaining thew ability to easily revert your changes. However, it’s not possible to override the same JSP from multiple hooks; Liferay won’t know which version to use.
