Upgrading Customization Modules

Customization modules include any module extension or override used to customize another module. For examples of these types of modules, visit the extensions and overrides sample projects.

Getting a customization module running on Liferay DXP 7.1 takes two steps:

1. Adapt your code to Liferay DXP 7.1’s API using the Liferay Upgrade Planner. When you ran the planner’s Fix Upgrade Problems step, many of the existing issues were autocorrected or flagged. For any remaining errors, consult the Resolving a Plugin’s Dependencies article.

2. Deploy your module.

Note: A fragment was a common customization module in past versions of Liferay DXP. Fragments are no longer recommended; you should upgrade a fragment to a dynamic include or portlet filter. For more information on recommended ways of customizing JSPs in Liferay DXP 7.1, see the Customizing JSPs section.

Great! Your customization module is upgraded for Liferay DXP 7.1!
