Time for action – signing in to Liferay Portal
So far, you have started the server and understood the Liferay Sign In portlet. Now, let's log in to Liferay Portal for the first time. Follow these steps to sign in to Liferay with default admin credentials:
Use the following credentials to log in to Liferay and then click on the Sign In button:
User Name: test@liferay.com
Password: test
The first page you will see is the Terms of Use page. This is a page which mentions all the terms and conditions of your portal. A user has to agree to these terms before accessing the portal. Go ahead and agree to the terms of use by clicking I Agree.
The next page that you will see is the Password Reminder Query page. You can set the password reminder query and the answer to recover the password, in case you forget it. Choose your question and provide an answer; click on Save to set your reply.
You will now be able to see the home page of Liferay.
