I've been working with Liferay 6.1 for about 3 months now and bought this book in the hopes that it would help me understand how to better administer our company's new Liferay portal. While not perfect, it has DEFINITELY helped to fill in many of the knowledge gaps I have in my self-directed learning. I wouldn't let the fact that this book is designed for 6.0 throw off anyone that is working on 6.1. The biggest relevant changes are the placement of some of the icon and menu options and Liferay now uses the word 'Site' instead of 'Community'.Given that I've been working with the portal for a few months, I was able to follow along with the book from cover-to-cover without much issue.I did skip some chapters, mostly the server install & setup chapters in the beginning(already done that), and the shopping portlet & social networking chapters that appear in the end(don't need those features).The chapter on users and permissions was very helpful. I have a much better understanding of how I need to organize our users within our portal.The main criticism I have about this book would be Chapter 7. Kind of an important chapter (Creating and Publishing Content) and whomever wrote was not really in sync with the other authors. It references pages, files, and images that haven't been created. Additionally, there are no files for this chapter in the supplementary book download from packtpub.com either. I couldn't create the content the author intended even if I tried to guess what he/she meant.The rest of the book is readable and should be able to be easily followed by anyone familiar with Liferay 6.0 or 6.1.In summation, good book for liferay 6.x beginner, but buy it at the Kindle price.

As a newcomer to Liferay I am finding this book useful in familiarizing me with the platforms features and capabilities. Would recommend it.

This book isn't bad, per se, and it is fairly clear to read. The problem is that it covers the 6.0 version and not the 6.1 version. That isn't as minor a difference as a "dot" release number would indicate. There are some significant shuffling around of structures between the two versions. Really, the 6.1 version should be the 7.0 version

What happens if an Early Access Course is cancelled?
Projects are rarely cancelled, but sometimes it's unavoidable. If an Early Access course is cancelled or excessively delayed, you can exchange your purchase for another course. For further details, please contact us here.
Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title?
If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team.
Can I download the code files for Early Access titles?
We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.
When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.
How accurate is the publication date?
The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.
How will I know when new chapters are ready?
We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.
I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access?
Yes, all Early Access content is fully available through your subscription. You will need to have a paid for or active trial subscription in order to access all titles.
How is Early Access delivered?
Early Access is currently only available as a PDF or through our online reader. As we make changes or add new chapters, the files in your Packt account will be updated so you can download them again or view them online immediately.
How do I buy Early Access content?
Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.
What is Early Access?
Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
