Activating CMP

Release Feature (LPD-58677) Liferay DXP 2026.Q3+

The Liferay Content Marketing Platform (CMP) is a set of add-on features in the Liferay CMS. CMP requires a separate license. To purchase one, contact Liferay through the Content Marketing Platform listing. Once your order is complete, you can generate the license key from Marketplace yourself.

To activate CMP, follow these steps:

1. Download and install the Liferay DXP bundle, if you don’t have an instance yet. See Installing a Liferay Tomcat Bundle or Using Liferay Docker Images.

2. Go to your Marketplace Customer Dashboard, click the My Products tab, and open CMP.

3. On the Download tab, download the CMP .lpkg file.

4. On the Activation tab, create and download a CMP license key.

   See Creating a License.

5. Deploy the .xml license file to your Liferay DXP instance.

   For Tomcat servers, place it in the Liferay Home/deploy folder. For Docker containers, copy it into the container’s deploy directory:

   docker cp license.xml [container-id]:/opt/liferay/deploy/
   

6. Deploy the .lpkg file the same way.

   docker cp [cmp-package].lpkg [container-id]:/opt/liferay/deploy/
   

7. Restart Liferay DXP.

   Installing the .lpkg requires a restart. On startup, the console logs a message confirming the .lpkg deployed successfully.

8. Activate the Content Marketing Platform (CMP) (LPD-58677) release feature flag.

CMP is active once a Planning section appears in the Liferay CMS. You can begin by creating a project.
