What is the problem here?
In multiple controllers, we are accepting a `limit` params but do not
impose any upper bound on the values being accepted. Without an upper
bound, we may be allowing arbituary users from generating DB queries
which may end up exhausing the resources on the server.
What is the fix here?
A new `fetch_limit_from_params` helper method is introduced in
`ApplicationController` that can be used by controller actions to safely
get the limit from the params as a default limit and maximum limit has
to be set. When an invalid limit params is encountered, the server will
respond with the 400 response code.
Context of this change:
There are two site settings which an admin can configured to set the
default categories and tags that are shown for a new user. `default_navigation_menu_categories`
is used to determine the default categories while
`default_navigation_menu_tags` is used to determine the default tags.
Prior to this change when seeding the defaults, we will filter out the
categories/tags that the user do not have permission to see. However,
this means that when the user does eventually gain permission down the
line, the default categories and tags do not appear.
What does this change do?
With this commit, we have changed it such that all the categories and tags
configured in the `default_navigation_menu_categories` and
`default_navigation_menu_tags` site settings are seeded regardless of
whether the user's visibility of the categories or tags. During
serialization, we will then filter out the categories and tags which the
user does not have visibility of.
Don't cache user_fields on users separately from custom_fields, since they can get out of sync.

This method is a huge footgun in production, since it calls
the Redis KEYS command. From the Redis documentation at
https://redis.io/commands/keys/:
> Warning: consider KEYS as a command that should only be used in
production environments with extreme care. It may ruin performance when
it is executed against large databases. This command is intended for
debugging and special operations, such as changing your keyspace layout.
Don't use KEYS in your regular application code.
Since we were only using `delete_prefixed` in specs (now that we
removed the usage in production in 24ec06ff85)
we can remove this and instead rely on `use_redis_snapshotting` on the
particular tests that need this kind of clearing functionality.
This commit introduces a new `within_user_updater_transaction` event that's triggered inside the transaction that saves user updates in `UserUpdater`. Plugins can hook into the transaction using the event to include custom changes in the transaction. Callbacks for this event receive 2 arguments:
1. the user being saved
2. the changed attributes that are passed to `UserUpdater`.
There's also new modifier in this commit called `users_controller_update_user_params` to allow plugins to allowlist custom params in the `UsersController` which eventually end up getting passed as attributes to the `UserUpdater` and the new `within_user_updater_transaction` event where they can be used to perform additional updates using the custom params.

New API is used in https://github.com/discourse/discourse-mailinglist-integration/pull/1.
Why is this change required?
Prior to this change, we would list all group messages that a user
has access to in the user menu messages notifications panel dropdown.
However, this did not respect the topic's notification level setting and
group messages which the user has set to 'normal' notification level were
being displayed
What does this commit do?
With this commit, we no longer display all group messages that a user
has access to. Instead, we only display group messages that a user is
watching in the user menu messages notifications panel dropdown.

That column is obsolete since we added the `granted_title_badge_id` column in 2019 (56d3e29a69). Having both columns can lead to inconsistencies (mostly due to old data from before 2019).
For example, `BadgeGranter.revoke_ungranted_titles!` doesn't work correctly if `badge_granted_title` is `false` while `granted_title_badge_id` points to the badge that is used as title.
Similar spirit to e195e6f614,
this moves the Bookmarkable registration to DiscoursePluginRegistry
so plugins which are not enabled do not register additional
bookmarkable classes.
This commits adds a database migration to limit the user status to 100
characters, limits the user status in the UI and makes sure that the
emoji is valid.

* DEV: Remove enable_whispers site setting
Whispers are enabled as long as there is at least one group allowed to
whisper, see whispers_allowed_groups site setting.
* DEV: Always enable whispers for admins if at least one group is allowed.
This new site setting replaces the
`enable_experimental_sidebar_hamburger` and `enable_sidebar` site
settings as the sidebar feature exits the experimental phase.
Note that we're replacing this without depreciation since the previous
site setting was considered experimental.

* FEATURE: Show warning if group cannot be mentioned
A similar warning is displayed when the user cannot be mentioned because
they have not been invited to the topic.
* FEATURE: Resolve mentions for new topic
This commit improves several improvements and refactors
/u/is_local_username route to a better /composer/mentions route that
can handle new topics too.
* FEATURE: Show warning if only some are notified
Sometimes users are still notified even if the group that was mentioned
was not invited to the message. This happens because its members were
invited directly or are members of other groups that were invited.
* DEV: Refactor _warnCannotSeeMention
* FEATURE: API to update user's discourse connect external id
This adds a special handling of updates to DiscourseConnect external_id
in the general user update API endpoint.
Admins can create, update or delete a user SingleSignOn record using
PUT /u/:username.json
{
"external_ids": {
"discourse_connect": "new-external-id"
}
}
The problem was reported as a problem with changing theme in user preferences, after saving a new theme the previously set user status was disappearing (https://meta.discourse.org/t/user-status/240335/42). Turned out though that the problem was more wide, changing pretty much any setting in user preferences apart from user status itself led to clearing the status.
* FIX: Follow up fixes for password-reset error page
Pass in `base_url` to the template
Use `.html_safe` since the message now contains html
Follow up to: 9b1536fb83
* Update specs to pass in the base_url

This PR also makes it so `bot` (negative ID) and `system` users are always allowed
to send PMs, since the old conditional was just based on `enable_personal_messages`
This commit adds non-archived group messages and `group_message_summary` notifications in the messages tab in the user menu. With this change, the messages tab in the user menu now includes 3 types of items:
1. Unread `private_message` notifications (notifications when you receive a reply in a PM)
2. Unread and read `group_message_summary` notifications (notifications when there's a new message in a group inbox that you track)
3. Non-archived personal and group messages
Unread `private_message` notifications are always shown first, followed by unread `group_message_summary` notifications, and then everything else (messages and read `group_message_summary` notifications) sorted by recency (most recent first).
Internal topic: t/72976.
This will replace `enable_personal_messages` and
`min_trust_to_send_messages`, this commit introduces
the setting `personal_message_enabled_groups`
and uses it in all places that `enable_personal_messages`
and `min_trust_to_send_messages` currently apply.
A migration is included to set `personal_message_enabled_groups`
based on the following rules:
* If `enable_personal_messages` was false, then set
`personal_message_enabled_groups` to `3`, which is
the staff auto group
* If `min_trust_to_send_messages` is not default (1)
and the above condition is false, then set the
`personal_message_enabled_groups` setting to
the appropriate auto group based on the trust level
* Otherwise just set `personal_message_enabled_groups` to
11 which is the TL1 auto group
After follow-up PRs to plugins using these old settings, we will be
able to drop the old settings from core, in the meantime I've added
DEPRECATED notices to their descriptions and added them
to the deprecated site settings list.
This commit also introduces a `_map` shortcut method definition
for all `group_list` site settings, e.g. `SiteSetting.personal_message_enabled_groups`
also has `SiteSetting.personal_message_enabled_groups_map` available,
which automatically splits the setting by `|` and converts it into
an array of integers.
The logic to determine what post excerpt to show for
a topic-level bookmark based on the last unread post
was complex and slow, so we decided to remove it and
always just use the first post excerpt.
This commit also fixes an issue where a couple of
instances of for_topic were missed when doing the
Bookmarkable refactors, so:
1. Clicking the topic bookmark link was not taking
the user to the last unread post
2. When replying to a topic where there was a topic
level bookmark with the auto delete preference
of "on owner reply", we were not removing the
bookmark from the UI correctly.
A test has been added for the former, the latter would
be quite time-consuming to test and not really worth
it considering it's quite an edge case UI bug.
Previously, for every bookmarked topic, all topic_user records were being preloaded. Only the current user's record is actually required.
This commit introduces a new `perform_custom_preload!` API which bookmarkables can use to add custom preloading logic. We use this in topic_bookmarkable to load just the topic_user data we need (in the same way as `topic_list.rb`).

Previously, this would require manually adding `?safe_mode=...` multiple times during the email-based login flow. `/u/admin-login` is often used when debugging a site, so it makes sense for this to be easier.
This commit introduces a new checkbox on the `/u/admin-login` screen. When checked, it'll set the safe_mode parameter on the `/email-login` link, and then pass it all the way through to the homepage redirect.

Similar to the bookmarks tab in the new user menu, the messages tab also displays a mix of notifications and messages. When there are unread message notifications, the tab displays all of these notifications at the top and fills the remaining space in the menu with a list of the user's messages. The bubble/badge count on the messages tab indicates how many unread message notifications there are.

The bookmarks tab in the new user menu is different from the other tabs in that it can display a mixture of notifications and bookmarks. When there are unread bookmark reminder notifications, the tab displays all of these notifications at the top and fills the remaining space in the menu with the rest of the bookmarks. The bubble/badge count on the bookmarks tab indicates how many unread bookmark reminder notifications there are.
On the technical aspect, since this commit introduces a new `bookmark-item` component, we've done some refactoring so that all 3 "item" components (`notification-item`, `reviewable-item` and the new `bookmark-item`) inherit from a base component and get identical HTML structure so they all look consistent.

This commit removes the ability to enable/disable the Sidebar on a per
user basis and introduces a site wide setting. For testing purposes, sidebar can be enabled/disabled via the `enable_sidebar=1` or `enable_sidebar=0` query param.
Before, whispers were only available for staff members.
Config has been changed to allow to configure privileged groups with access to whispers. Post migration was added to move from the old setting into the new one.
I considered having a boolean column `whisperer` on user model similar to `admin/moderator` for performance reason. Finally, I decided to keep looking for groups as queries are only done for current user and didn't notice any N+1 queries.
This commit migrates all bookmarks to be polymorphic (using the
bookmarkable_id and bookmarkable_type) columns. It also deletes
all the old code guarded behind the use_polymorphic_bookmarks setting
and changes that setting to true for all sites and by default for
the sake of plugins.
No data is deleted in the migrations, the old post_id and for_topic
columns for bookmarks will be dropped later on.
We have a .ics endpoint for user bookmarks, this
commit makes it so polymorphic bookmarks work on
that endpoint, using the serializer associated with
the RegisteredBookmarkable.
A bit of a mixed bag, this addresses several edge areas of bookmarks and makes them compatible with polymorphic bookmarks (hidden behind the `use_polymorphic_bookmarks` site setting). The main ones are:
* ExportUserArchive compatibility
* SyncTopicUserBookmarked job compatibility
* Sending different notifications for the bookmark reminders based on the bookmarkable type
* Import scripts compatibility
* BookmarkReminderNotificationHandler compatibility
This PR also refactors the `register_bookmarkable` API so it accepts a class descended from a `BaseBookmarkable` class instead. This was done because we kept having to add more and more lambdas/properties inline and it was very messy, so a factory pattern is cleaner. The classes can be tested independently as well.
Some later PRs will address some other areas like the discourse narrative bot, advanced search, reports, and the .ics endpoint for bookmarks.
* hidden siteSetting to enable experimental sidebar
* user preference to enable experimental sidebar
* `experimental_sidebar_enabled` attribute for current user
* Empty glimmer component for Sidebar
This pull request follows on from https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/16308. This one does the following:
* Changes `BookmarkQuery` to allow for querying more than just Post and Topic bookmarkables
* Introduces a `Bookmark.register_bookmarkable` method which requires a model, serializer, fields and preload includes for searching. These registered `Bookmarkable` types are then used when validating new bookmarks, and also when determining which serializer to use for the bookmark list. The `Post` and `Topic` bookmarkables are registered by default.
* Adds new specific types for Post and Topic bookmark serializers along with preloading of associations in `UserBookmarkList`
* Changes to the user bookmark list template to allow for more generic bookmarkable types alongside the Post and Topic ones which need to display in a particular way
All of these changes are gated behind the `use_polymorphic_bookmarks` site setting, apart from the .hbs changes where I have updated the original `UserBookmarkSerializer` with some stub methods.
Following this PR will be several plugin PRs (for assign, chat, encrypt) that will register their own bookmarkable types or otherwise alter the bookmark serializers in their own way, also gated behind `use_polymorphic_bookmarks`.
This commit also removes `BookmarkQuery.preloaded_custom_fields` and the functionality surrounding it. It was added in 0cd502a558 but only used by one plugin (discourse-assign) where it has since been removed, and is now used by no plugins. We don't need it anymore.
This did not work properly everytime because the destination URL was
saved in a cookie and that can be lost for various reasons. This commit
redirects the user to invited topic if it exists.
Previously, if an admin user tried to add/remove
users to another user's ignored list, it would
be added to their own ignore list because the
controller used current_user. Now for admins only
a source_user_id parameter can be passed through,
which will be used to ignore the target user for
that source user.
Discourse users and associated accounts are created or updated when a
user logins or connects the account using their account preferences.
This new API can be used to create associated accounts and users too,
if necessary.
Our @mention user search prioritized users based on prefix matches.
So if searching for `sa` we will display `sam`, `asam` in that order
Previously, we did not prioritize group matches based on prefix. This change ensures better parity.
Implementation notes:
1. User search only prioritizes based on username prefix, not name prefix. TBD if we want to change that.
2. @mention on client side will show 0 group matches if we fill up all the spots with user matches. TBD if we want to unconditionally show the first / second group match.
