Under exceptional situations the automatic draft feature can fail.
This new **hidden, default off** site setting
`backup_drafts_to_pm_length` will automatically backup any draft that is
saved by the system to a dedicated PM (originating from self)
The body of that PM will contain the text of the reply.
We can enable this feature strategically on sites exhibiting issues to
diagnose issues with the draft system and offer a recourse to users who
appear to lose drafts. We automatically checkpoint these drafts every 5
minutes forcing a new revision each 5 minutes so you can revert to old
content.
Longer term we are considering automatically enabling this kind of feature
for extremely long drafts where the risk is really high one could lose
days of writing.
Zeitwerk simplifies working with dependencies in dev and makes it easier reloading class chains.
We no longer need to use Rails "require_dependency" anywhere and instead can just use standard
Ruby patterns to require files.
This is a far reaching change and we expect some followups here.
Before the locking here was added, replying to a post and liking a post
at roughly the same time could cause a deadlock.
Liking a post grabs an update lock on the post and then on the topic (to
update like counts).
We now lock the replied to post before getting the topic lock so that we
can update the replied to post later without causing a deadlock.
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
Minor fixes to add Rails 6 support to Discourse, we now will boot
with RAILS_MASTER=1, all specs pass
Only one tiny deprecation left
Largest change was the way ActiveModel:Errors changed interface a
bit but there is a simple backwards compat way of working it
Includes support for flags, reviewable users and queued posts, with REST API
backwards compatibility.

Previously we would bypass touching `Topic.updated_at` for whispers and post
recovery / deletions.
This meant that certain types of caching can not be done where we rely on
this information for cache accuracy.
For example if we know we have zero unread topics as of yesterday and whisper
is made I need to bump this date so the cache remains accurate
This is only half of a larger change but provides the groundwork.
Confirmed none of our serializers leak out Topic.updated_at so this is safe
spot for this info
At the moment edits still do not change this but it is not relevant for the
unread cache.
This commit also cleans up some specs to use the new `eq_time` matcher for
millisecond fidelity comparison of times
Previously `freeze_time` would fudge this which is not that clean.
- Notices are visible only by poster and trust level 2+ users.
- Notices are not generated for non-human or staged users.
- Notices are deleted when post is deleted.
Previously it would unhide their post but leave them silenced.
This fix also cleans up some of the helper classes to make it easier
to pass extra data to the silencing code (for example, a link to the
post that caused the user to be silenced.)
This patch also refactors the auto_silence specs to avoid using
stubs.
* FIX: don't allow inviting more than `max_allowed_message_recipients` setting allows
* add specs for guardian
* user preferences for auto track shouldn't be applicable to PMs (it auto watches on visit)
Execlude PMs from "Automatically track topics I enter..." and "When I post in a topic, set that topic to..." user preferences
* groups take only 1 slot in PM
* just return if topic is a PM
* Add possibility to add hidden posts with PostCreator
* FEATURE: Create hidden posts for received spam emails
Spamchecker usually have 3 results: HAM, SPAM and PROBABLY_SPAM
SPAM gets usually directly rejected and needs no further handling.
HAM is good message and usually gets passed unmodified.
PROBABLY_SPAM gets an additional header to allow further processing.
This change addes processing capabilities for such headers and marks
new posts created as hidden when received via email.
This updates tests to use latest rails 5 practice
and updates ALL dependencies that could be updated
Performance testing shows that performance has not regressed
if anything it is marginally faster now.
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.
Figuring out what unread topics a user has is a very expensive
operation over time.
Users can easily accumulate 10s of thousands of tracking state rows
(1 for every topic they ever visit)
When figuring out what a user has that is unread we need to join
the tracking state records to the topic table. This can very quickly
lead to cases where you need to scan through the entire topic table.
This commit optimises it so we always keep track of the "first" date
a user has unread topics. Then we can easily filter out all earlier
topics from the join.
We use pg functions, instead of nested queries here to assist the
planner.
- Regular users are not notified of whispers
- Regular users no longer have "stuck" topics in unread
- Additional tracking for staff highest post number
- Remove a bunch of unused columns in topics table
Messages are now in 3 buckets
- Inbox for all new messages
- Sent for all sent messages
- Archive for all messages you are done with
You can select messages from your Inbox or Sent and move them to your Archive,
you can move messages out of your Archive similarly
Similar concept applied to group messages, except that archiving and unarchiving
will apply to all group members
- improve perf of test for existing posts
- always use a system guardian when importing posts
- for lithuim importer requery raw (transform is not repeatable)
- how long were people typing?
- how long was composer open?
- how many drafts were created?
- correct, draft saved to go away after you continue typing
store in Post.find(xyz).post_stat
Previously providing an embed code already in use would result in
a logged server error. After this commit the error is gracefully
bubbled up from the `PostCreator`
- add User.staff scope
- inject MessageBus into Ember views (so it can be used by the poll plugin)
- REFACTOR: use more accurate is_first_post? method instead of post_number == 1
- FEATURE: add support for JSON-typed custom fields
- FEATURE: allow plugins to add validation
- FEATURE: add post_custom_fields to PostSerializer
- FEATURE: allow plugins to whitelist post_custom_fields
- FIX: don't bump when post did not save successfully
- FEATURE: polls are supported in any post
- FEATURE: allow for multiple polls in the same post
- FEATURE: multiple choice polls
- FEATURE: rating polls
- FEATURE: new dialect allowing users to preview polls in the composer
