Remember OutOfMemoryError or a slow portal due to one portlet
having memory leakage?

happening

Following Properties to be set after installing the plugin
com.liferay.portal.servlet.filters.audit.AuditFilter: By default, this is set to false,
because the audit plugins aren’t installed by default. When you set it to true, the
audit hook is able to capture more information about events, such as the client host
and the client’s IP address.
audit.message.com.liferay.portal.model.Layout.VIEW: In Liferay’s code, pages are
referred to as layouts. Setting this to true, therefore, records audit events for page
views. It’s turned off by default because this may be too fine-grained for most
installations.

How many times you had to write hooks or EXT (for the
fortunate who worked on earlier versions of LR) just to
change the display style???
Application Display Templates (ADT) allows you to:
Override Default display style
Choose your own display style for OOTB Portlet
Use a template editor to create a custom template – re-skin
your portlet
