Enabling Tags, Categories, and Related Assets for Guestbook Entries

Adding Asset Features to Your UI

Step 4 of 5

Enabling tags, categories, and related assets for guestbook entries is similar to enabling them for guestbooks. Please refer back to the previous step for a detailed explanation.

Open your guestbook-web module’s guestbookwebportlet/edit_entry.jsp file. Replace its content with the following code:

<%@ include file="../init.jsp" %>

    <%
    long entryId = ParamUtil.getLong(renderRequest, "entryId");

    Entry entry = null;

    if (entryId > 0) {
        entry = EntryLocalServiceUtil.getEntry(entryId);
    }

    long guestbookId = ParamUtil.getLong(renderRequest, "guestbookId");
    %>

    <portlet:renderURL var="viewURL">
        <portlet:param 
            name="mvcPath" 
            value="/guestbookwebportlet/view.jsp" 
        />
    </portlet:renderURL>

    <liferay-ui:header
        backURL="<%= viewURL.toString() %>"
        title="<%= entry == null ? "Add Entry" : entry.getName() %>"
    />

    <portlet:actionURL name="addEntry" var="addEntryURL" />

    <aui:form action="<%= addEntryURL %>" name="fm">
        <aui:model-context bean="<%= entry %>" model="<%= Entry.class %>" />

            <aui:fieldset>
                <aui:input name="name" />

                <aui:input name="email" />

                <aui:input name="message" />

                <aui:input name="entryId" type="hidden" />

                <aui:input name="guestbookId" type="hidden" 
                value=
                "<%= entry == null ? guestbookId : entry.getGuestbookId() %>" />
            </aui:fieldset>

    <liferay-ui:asset-categories-error />
                        <liferay-ui:asset-tags-error />
                        <liferay-ui:panel defaultState="closed" 
                        extended="<%= false %>" id="entryCategorizationPanel" 
                        persistState="<%= true %>" title="categorization">
                                <aui:fieldset>
                                   <liferay-asset:asset-categories-selector className="<%= Entry.class.getName() %>" classPK="<%= entryId %>" />
                                   <liferay-asset:asset-tags-selector className="<%= Entry.class.getName() %>" classPK="<%= entryId %>" />
                                </aui:fieldset>
                        </liferay-ui:panel>

                        <liferay-ui:panel defaultState="closed" 
                        extended="<%= false %>" id="entryAssetLinksPanel" 
                        persistState="<%= true %>" title="related-assets">
                                <aui:fieldset collapsed="<%= true %>" collapsible="<%= true %>" label="related-assets">
				
					<liferay-asset:input-asset-links
						className="<%= Entry.class.getName() %>"
						classPK="<%= entryId %>"
					/>
				
				</aui:fieldset>
                        </liferay-ui:panel>

        <aui:button-row>
            <aui:button type="submit" />

            <aui:button onClick="<%= viewURL.toString() %>" type="cancel" />
        </aui:button-row>
    </aui:form>

Test your JSP by using the Guestbook portlet to add and update Guestbook entries. Add and remove tags, categories, and related assets.

Note: Setting your custom asset as the Main Asset of a page is required to display related assets in the Related Assets portlet. This is done when creating Friendly URLs in a later step.

Well done! Next, you’ll enable comments and ratings for guestbook entries.
