This disallows putting URLs in topic titles for TL0 users, which means that:
If a TL-0 user puts a link into the title, a topic featured link won't be generated (as if it was disabled in the site settings)
Server methods for creating and updating topics will be refusing featured links when they are called by TL-0 users
TL-0 users won't be able to put any link into the topic title. For example, the title "Hey, take a look at https://my-site.com" will be rejected.
Also, it improves a bit server behavior when creating or updating feature links on topics in the categories with disabled featured links. Before the server just silently ignored a featured link field that was passed to him, now it will be returning 422 response.
Over the years we accrued many spelling mistakes in the code base.
This PR attempts to fix spelling mistakes and typos in all areas of the code that are extremely safe to change
- comments
- test descriptions
- other low risk areas
* FEATURE: allow category group moderators to pin/unpin topics
Category group moderators should be able to pin/unpin any topics within a category where they have appropraite category group moderator permissions.
Disabling shared drafts used to leave topics in an inconsistent state
where they were not displayed as shared drafts and thus there was no
way of publishing them. Moreover, they were accessible just to users
who have permissions to create shared drafts.
This commit adds another permission check that is used for most
operations and the old can_create_shared_draft? remains used just when
creating a new shared draft.
Splits the `ToggleTopicClosed` job into two distinct `OpenTopic` and `CloseTopic` jobs to make the code clearer. The old job cannot be deleted yet because of outstanding sidekiq schedules, so a todo has been added to do so later this year.
Also replaced mentions of `topic_status_update` with `topic_timer` in some files, because the `topic_status_update` model is obsolete and replaced by topic timer.
Added some shortcut methods for checking if a topic is open/whether a user can change an open topic.
This is an edge-case of 9fb3629. An admin could set the shared draft category to one where both TL2 and TL3 users have access but only give shared draft access to TL3 users. If something like this happens, we need to make sure that TL2 users won't be able to see them, and they won't be listed on latest.
Before this change, `SharedDrafts` were lazily created when a destination category was selected. We now create it alongside the topic and set the destination to the same shared draft category.
* FEATURE: Allow categroy group moderators to list/unlist topics
If enabled via SiteSettings, a user belonging to a group which has been granted category group moderator privileges should be able to list/unlist topics belonging to the appropraite category.
You can let non-staff users use shared drafts by modifying the `shared_drafts_min_trust_level` site setting. These users must have access to the shared draft category.
* FEATURE: Allow Category Group Moderators to edit topic titles
Adds category group moderators to the topic guardian’s `can_edit` method.
The value of `can_edit` is returned by the topic view serializer, and this value determines whether the current user can edit the title/category/tags of the topic directly (which category group moderators could already do by editing the first post of a topic).
Note that the value of `can_edit` is now always returned by the topic view serializer (ie, for both true and false values) to cover the case where a topic is moved out of a category that a category group moderator has permissions on, so that when the topic is reloaded the UI picks up that `can_edit` is now false, and thus the edit icon should no longer be displayed.
* DEV: Add a comment explaining why `can_edit` is always returned
* FEATURE - allow category group moderators to delete topics
* Allow individual posts to be deleted
* DEV - refactor for new `can_moderate_topic?` method
On large topics, the cost of sending the entire post ID list back over to the database is signficant. Just have the DB recalculate the list of visible posts instead.
group membership and `CategoryUser` notification level should be
respected to determine whether to notify staged users about activity in
private categories, instead of only ever generating notifications for staged
users' own topics (which has been the behaviour since
0c4ac2a7bc)
If the setting is turned on, then the user will receive information
about the subject: if it was deleted or requires some special access to
a group (only if the group is public). Otherwise, the user will receive
a generic #404 error message. For now, this change affects only the
topics and categories controller.
This commit also tries to refactor some of the code related to error
handling. To make error pages more consistent (design-wise), the actual
error page will be rendered server-side.
* FEATURE: Add tl2 threshold for editing new posts
* Adds a new setting and for tl2 editing posts (30 days same as old value)
* Sets the tl0/tl1 editing period as 1 day
* FIX: Spec uses wrong setting
* Fix site setting on guardian spec
* FIX: post editing period specs
* Avoid shared examples
* Use update_columns to avoid callbacks on user during tests
This reduces chances of errors where consumers of strings mutate inputs
and reduces memory usage of the app.
Test suite passes now, but there may be some stuff left, so we will run
a few sites on a branch prior to merging
This change shows a notification number besides the flag icon in the
post menu if there is reviewable content associated with the post.
Additionally, if there is pending stuff to review, the icon has a red
background.
We have also removed the list of links below a post with the flag
status. A reviewer is meant to click the number beside the flag icon to
view the flags. As a consequence of losing those links, we've removed
the ability to undo or ignore flags below a post.
This feature can be enabled by choosing a destination for the
`shared drafts category` site setting.
* Staff members can create shared drafts, choosing a destination
category for the topic when it is published.
* Shared Drafts can be viewed in their category, or above the
topic list for the destination category where it will end up.
* When the shared draft is ready, it can be published to the
appropriate category by clicking a button on the topic view.
* When published, Drafts change their timestamps to the current
time, and any edits to the original post are removed.
