This commit adds data attributes to identify the controls in the user settings UI.
Plugins and TCs can use this information to target each setting to highlight or hide
them.
Although most of the settings also have specific classes identifying them, using data
attributes is more future proof as it is less likely to change them classes, specially
as we increase the adoption of the BEM methodology in CSS.
Using data attributes also are semantically correct as the setting name is data not really related to the classes used.
The user card is always present in the DOM. Therefore we only need to
add the `aria-labelledby` attribute when there is a user (and a title)
to point to.
What does this change do?
This change adds a dropdown filter that allows a user to filter by
selected or unselected categories/tags in the edit navigation menu
modal.
For the categories modal, parent categories that do not match the
dropdown filter will be displayed as disabled since those parent
categories need to be displayed to maintain the hieracy of the child
child categories.
Why this change?
There was alot of duplication between the edit navigation menu tags/categories modal which
was making it hard to introduce new changes as the work had to be
duplicated into multiple places.
This commit mainly extracts the duplicated code into common components
such that it is easier to make styling changes across both modals.
This PR splits up the preference that controls the count vs dot and destination of sidebar links, which is really hard to understand, into 2 simpler checkboxes:
The new preferences/checkboxes are off by default, but there are database migrations to switch the old preference to the new ones so that existing users don't have to update their preferences to keep their preferred behavior of sidebar links when this changed is rolled out.
Internal topic: t/103529.
Introduces a new above-latest-topic-list-item-post-count outlet, providing a clean way to add other useful elements to the topic-stats section of the latest-topic-list-item template.
What this change?
When a user opens the modal to edit tags or categories for the
navigation menu, we want to input filter to have focus. This commit
fixes that by doing the following:
1. Changes <DModal> component such that it prioritises elements with the
autofocus attribute first.
2. Adds `autofocus` to the input elements on the edit tags/categories
modal form.
To export chat messages, go to `/admin/plugins/chat` and click the Create export
button in the _Export chat messages_ section. You'll receive a direct message
when the export is finished.
Currently, this exports all messages from the last 6 months, but not more than
10000 messages.
This exports all chat messages, including messages from private channels and
users' direct conversations. This also exports messages that were deleted.
When a site does not have `default_navigation_menu_tags`
site setting set, anonymous users should be shown the site's top tags as
a default in the tags section. However, this regressed in 9fad71809c
and we ended up showing anonymous users a tags section with only the
`All Tags` section link.
As part of this commit, I have also refactored the QUnit acceptance
tests to system tests which are much easier to work with.
What does this change do?
This change adds the deselect all and reset to defaults buttons to the
edit navigation menu tags modal. The deselect all button when
clicked deselects all the selected tags in the modal. If the user
saves with no tags selected, the user's tags section in the
navigation menu will be set to the site's top tags.
The reset to defaults button is only shown when the
`default_navigation_menu_tags` site setting has been configured.
When clicked, the user's tags section in the navigation menu is
automatically set to the tags defined by the
`default_navigation_menu_tags` site setting.
What does this change do?
This change adds a loading spinner to the edit navigation menu tags
modal when the request to fetch all the tags for a site is in progress.
This mainly to improve the user experience such that we indicate that
something is being loaded instead of just displaying a large empty
space.
What are there no tests for this change?
This change is kind of hard to test and since it is mostly a UX change,
we can live with such regressions in the future. It is still bad to
regress UX wise but impact of such a regression is likely to be low.
There is a problem that unread and new count is not updated to reflecting topicTrackingState.
It is because discourseComputed on Category is not working properly with topicTrackingState. Moving it to component level is making counter reliable.
What does this change do?
This commit adds an input filter to filter through the tag checkboxes in the
modal to edit tags that are shown in the user's navigation menu. The
filtering is a simple matching of the given filter term against the
names of the tags.
What does this change do?
This change is a first pass for adding a modal used to edit tags that appears in
the navigation menu. As the feature is being worked on in phases, it is
currently hidden behind the `new_edit_sidebar_categories_tags_interface_groups` site setting.
The following features will be worked on in future commits:
1. Input filter to filter through the tgas
2. Button to reset tag selection to default navigation menu tags site
settings
3. Button to deselect all current selection
When searching in the context of a topic the <kbd>in all topics</kbd> link would not search globally for the given term and instead it would always search within the current topic. This PR fixes the link to properly update the search context and search globally for the given term.
This fix reveals some _secretly_ broken tests. Update these as well.
This commit adds an aria-label attribute to cooked hashtags using
the post/chat message decorateCooked functionality. I have just used
the inner content of the hashtag (the tag/category/channel name) for
the label -- we can reexamine at some point if we want something
different like "Link to dev category" or something, but from what I
can tell things like Twitter don't even have aria-labels for hashtags
so the text would be read out directly.
This commit also refactors any ruby specs checking the HTML of hashtags
to use rspec-html-matchers which is far clearer than having to maintain
the HTML structure in a HEREDOC for comparison, and gives better spec
failures.

What does this commit do?
Prior to this change, a long category name on mobile would cause a
horizontal scroll to appear because the category name was overflowing
its element. This commit changes it such that the category name will
wrap around instead.

The work in fa509224f0 updated our initializer patterns to match modern Ember. This caused the initializer from the (deprecated) ember-export-application-global addon to change its behavior from exporting the ApplicationInstance to exporting the Application. This affects customizations which were using some long-deprecated APIs we had attached to the ApplicationInstance.
This commit removes the deprecated addon, restores the previous ApplicationInstance behavior which we've come to depend on, and adds a test for the expected behavior. It also bumps the `dropFrom` version to make it clear that we do not intend to remove these APIs during this release cycle.
# Top level view
This PR is the first version of converting the search menu and its logic from (deprecated) widgets to glimmer components. The changes are hidden behind a group based feature flag. This will give us the ability to test the new implementation in a production setting before fully committing to the new search menu.
# What has changed
The majority of the logic from the widget implementation has been updated to fit within the context of a glimmer component, but it has not fundamentally changed. Instead of having a single widget - [search-menu.js](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/app/widgets/search-menu.js) - that built the bulk of the search menu logic, we split the logic into (20+) bite size components. This greatly increases the readability and makes extending a component in the search menu much more straightforward.
That being said, certain pieces needed to be rewritten from scratch as they did not translate from widget -> glimmer, or there was a general code upgraded needed. There are a few of these changes worth noting:
### Search Service
**Search Term** -> In the widget implementation we had a overly complex way of managing the current search term. We tracked the search term across multiple different states (`term`, `opts.term`, `searchData.term`) causing headaches. This PR introduces a single source of truth:
```js
this.search.activeGlobalSearchTerm
```
This tracked value is available anywhere the `search` service is injected. In the case the search term should be needs to be updated you can call
```js
this.search.activeGlobalSearchTerm = "foo"
```
**event listeners** -> In the widget implementation we defined event listeners **only** on the search input to handle things such as
- keyboard navigation / shortcuts
- closing the search menu
- performing a search with "enter"
Having this in one place caused a lot of bloat in our logic as we had to handle multiple different cases in one location. Do _x_ if it is this element, but do _y_ if it is another. This PR updates the event listeners to be attached to individual components, allowing for a more fine tuned set of actions per element. To not duplicate logic across multiple components, we have condensed shared logic to actions on the search service to be reused. For example - `this.search.handleArrowUpOrDown` - to handle keyboard navigation.
### Search Context
We have unique logic based on the current search context (topic / tag / category / user / etc). This context is set within a models route file. We have updated the search service with a tracked value `searchContext` that can be utilized and updated from any component where the search service is injected.
```js
# before
this.searchService.set("searchContext", user.searchContext);
# after
this.searchService.searchContext = user.searchContext;
```

- FIX: improves reactions and thread indicator touch event on mobile
These "buttons" are located inside a scroll list which makes them very specific. The general idea is to ensure these events are passive and are not bubbling to the parent.
- DEV: moves state on top level message node
- FIX: ensures popover arrow has the correct border
- FIX: makes a message expanded by default
- FIX applies the same ios scroll fix on thread and channel
- UI: better active/hover state for thread indicator
- UI: attempts to follow more closely our BEM naming scheme
- FIX: reduces bottom padding on message with thread indicator and user info hidden
- UI: add padding for first message in thread
- FIX: prevents actions backdrop to open thread
- UI: makes thread indicator resizable
This commit adds a tracking dropdown to each individual thread, similar to topics,
that allows the user to change the notification level for a thread manually. Previously
the user had to reply to a thread to track it and see unread indicators.
Since the user can now manually track threads, the thread index has also been changed
to only show threads that the user is a member of, rather than threads that they had sent
messages in.
Unread indicators also respect the notification level -- Normal level thread tracking
will not show unread indicators in the UI when new messages are sent in the thread.
What this change?
Previous solution relied on CSS to hide the header which is first
wasteful since we're still rendering the header and second makes it
untestable. If we don't want the header to show, we should avoid
rendering it in the first place.
Why is this change required?
When a site is newly setup and a user has just been created, the
categories and tags sections are hidden from the user. This happens
because the admin has not configured the `default_navigation_menu_categories` or
`default_navigation_menu_tags` site settings. When the categories and tags
sections are hidden from the user, the sidebar looks extremely bare and
does not create a good experience.
What is being change?
In this commit, we're changing the logic such that the site's top
categories and tags are displayed if the user does not have any
categories/tags configured in each respective section. The only
regression introduced in this change is that the categories and tags
section can no longer be hidden as a result. However, we have plans to
address this in the future by allowing sidebar sections to be configured
to be hidden by each individual user.
https://meta.discourse.org/t/updating-our-initializer-naming-patterns/241919
For historical reasons, Discourse has different initializers conventions than standard Ember:
```
| Ember | Discourse | |
| initializers | pre-initializers | runs once per app load |
| instance-initializers | (api-)initializers | runs once per app boot |
```
In addition, the arguments to the initialize function is different – Ember initializers get either the `Application` or `ApplicationInstance` as the only argument, but the "Discourse style" gets an extra container argument preceding that.
This is confusing, but it also causes problems with Ember addons, which expects the standard naming and argument conventions:
1. Typically, V1 addons will define their (app, instance) initializers in the `addon/(instance-)initializers/*`, which appears as `ember-some-addon-package-name/(instance-)initializers/*` in the require registry.
2. Just having those modules defined isn't supposed to do anything, so typically they also re-export them in `app/(instance-)initializers/*`, which gets merged into `discourse/(instance-)initializers/*` in the require registry.
3. The `ember-cli-load-initializers` package supplies a function called `loadInitializers`, which typically gets called in `app.js` to load the initializers according to the conventions above. Since we don't follow the same conventions, we can't use this function and instead have custom code in `app.js`, loosely based on official version but attempts to account for the different conventions.
The custom code that loads initializers is written with Discourse core and plug-ins/themes in mind, but does not take into account the fact that addons can also bring initializers, which causes the following problems:
* It does not check for the `discourse/` module prefix, so initializers in the `addon/` folders (point 1 above) get picked up as well. This means the initializer code is probably registered twice (once from the `addon/` folder, once from the `app/` re-export). This either causes a dev mode assertion (if they have the same name) or causes the code to run twice (if they have different names somehow).
* In modern Ember blueprints, it is customary to omit the `"name"` of the initializer since `ember-cli-load-initializers` can infer it from the module name. Our custom code does not do this and causes a dev mode assertion instead.
* It runs what then addon intends to be application initializers as instance initializers due to the naming difference. There is at least one known case of this where the `ember-export-application-global` application initialize is currently incorrectly registered as an instance initializer. (It happens to not use the `/addon` folder convention and explicitly names the initializer, so it does not trigger the previous error scenarios.)
* It runs the initializers with the wrong arguments. If all the addon initializer does is lookup stuff from the container, it happens to work, otherwise... ???
* It does not check for the `/instance-initializers/` module path so any instance initializers introduced by addons are silently ignored.
These issues were discovered when trying to install an addon that brings an application initializer in #22023.
To resolve these issues, this commit:
* Migrates Discourse core to use the standard Ember conventions – both in the naming and the arguments of the initialize function
* Updates the custom code for loading initializers:
* For Discourse core, it essentially does the same thing as `ember-cli-load-initializers`
* For plugins and themes, it preserves the existing Discourse conventions and semantics (to be revisited at a later time)
This ensures that going forward, Ember addons will function correctly.
Communities can use sidebar or header dropdown, therefore navigation menu is a better name settings in 2 places:
- Old user sidebar preferences;
- Site setting about default tags and categories.
* FEATURE: Content custom summarization strategies.
This PR establishes a pattern for plugins to register alternative ways of summarizing content by extending a class that defines an interface.
Core controls which strategy we'll use and who has access to it through the `summarization_strategy` and `custom_summarization_allowed_groups`. It also defines the UI for summarizing topics.
Other plugins can access this summarization mechanism and implement their features, removing cross-plugin customizations, as it currently happens between chat and the discourse-ai plugin.
* Group membership validation and rate limiting
* Work with objects instead of classes
* Port summarization feature from discourse-ai to chat
* Rename available summaries to 'Top Replies' and 'Summary'
When we introduced unicode support in the regular expressions used in watched words (9a27803) we didn't realize the cost adding the `u` flag would be.
Turns out, it's pretty bad when you have lots of regular expressions to test. A customer had slightly less than 200 watched words, and it would freeze the browser for about 2s on the first check of those regular expressions (roughly 10ms per regular expression).
This commit introduces a new field (`word`) to the serialized watched words which is then converted to a very fast and cheap regular expression on the client-side. We use that regexp to quicly check whether a matcher is even worth trying so that we don't incure the cost of compiling the expensive unicode regexp.
This commit also busts the `WordWatcher` cache since we added a new field to be serialized.
One nice side effect of using `matchAll` instead of a `while / exec` loop is that the likeliness of having a bad regexp matching infinitely is vastly reduced 🙌
Improves the layout of most grids in posts, by using `object-fit: cover` for most images. This allows images to better fill up the space, without changing their aspect ratio.
Clicking on TOC heading anchors in a subfolder setup was breaking the current URL for users.
Other than the fix this change introduces the ability to test the subfolder setup in system specs.
1. ember proxy stuff still isn't in a great shape, live-reload doesn't work yet, uploads made w/o subfolder won't work, custom fonts don't work, service worker doesn't work. But otherwise it's fine :P
2. I don't know why `HTTP_IF_MODIFIED_SINCE` can be an empty string. Don't have time to investigate, and fast_blank makes this fix an easy solution ;)
When we get to really big files, it's better to not have thousands
of small chunks, since we don't have a resume functionality if the
upload fails. Better to try upload less chunks even if those chunks
are bigger.
For example, with this change a 20GB file would go from 4000 chunks
of the default 5mb to 1000 chunks of the new 20mb size. Still a lot,
but perhaps more manageable.
This is somewhat experimental -- if we still don't see improvements
we can always change back.
* move the chat unread indicator to top to match the profile avatar indicator

* update thread indicator to use mixin
* update header indicator to use mixin

Why this change?
Currently, we're interpolating within a string to set the class for the
`DButton` component. However, the interpolation and formatting of our
handlebars templates result in unnecessary spaces being added to the
class attribute.
```
<button class="sidebar-section-header sidebar-section-header-collapsable btn-flat
btn
no-text
" aria-controls="sidebar-section-content-categories" aria-expanded="true" title="Toggle section" type="button">
...
</button>
```
This makes the HTML elements for buttons hard to read especially when
we're debugging issues in the console. After this change, this is what
we get:
```
<button class="sidebar-section-header sidebar-section-header-collapsable btn-flat btn no-text" aria-controls="sidebar-section-content-categories" aria-expanded="true" title="Toggle section" type="button">
...
</button>
```
Previously workbox JS was vendored into our git repository, and would be loaded from the `public/javascripts` directory with a 1 day cache lifetime. The main aim of this commit is to add 'cachebuster' to the workbox URL so that the cache lifetime can be increased.
- Remove vendored copies of workbox.
- Use ember-cli/broccoli to collect workbox files from node_modules into assets/workbox-{digest}
- Add assets to sprockets manifest so that they're collected from the ember-cli output directory (and uploaded to s3 when configured)
Some of the sprockets-related changes in this commit are not ideal, but we hope to remove sprockets in the not-too-distant future.
These spec are flaky only in CI, not locally and not in GitHub actions.
The previous attempt was in 44eabde, but actually the failure happens
a bit earlier. This is another attempt to fix these specs. Quite a lot of
async logic is happening in emulateAutocomplete(), a call to settled()
in the end should help make it more reliable.
What does this change do?
This change is a continuation of
2191b879c6 and adds an input filter to the
edit sidebar categories modal which the user can use to filter through
the list of categories by the category's name.
Note that if a child category is being shown, all of its ancestors will
be shown even if the names of the ancestors do not match the given
filter. This is to ensure that we continue to display the hierarchy of a
child category even if the parent category does not match the filter.
Why does this commit do?
This commit adds support for sub-subcategories in the new edit sidebar
categories modal added in fc296b9a81. Note
that sub-subcategories are enabled when `max_category_nesting` is set to
`3`.
Adds a new `[grid]` tag that can arrange images (or other media) into a grid in posts.
The grid defaults to a 3-column with a few exceptions:
- if there are only 2 or 4 items, it defaults to a 2-column grid (because it generally looks better)
- on mobile, it defaults to a 2-column grid
- if there is only one item, the grid has no effect
This removes the modal container named-outlet/controller/template and replaces it with a component. Named outlets will be removed in Ember 4.x, so this change is part of that upgrade project.
Smaller changes include:
- update some of the computed values to be getters rather than calculated during `show()`.
- update tests which were previously depending on the modal class persisting after the modal was closed
Much of the logic in the service will be deprecated once we introduce component-based modals.
This work is split out from https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/21304
Previously merged in 80b77b2e and then reverted due to issues with the PM invite modal. This PR fixes the issue, and introduces a test which would have caught the issue.
Why is this change required?
Right now, we're awaiting on the promise returned by
`this.pmTopicTrackingState.startTracking()` which blocks the rendering
of the template until the promise resolves. However, this blocking of
the rendering ends up introducing yet another intermediate loading state
in the UI which we find unsightly. Instead of blocking the rendering, we
allow the promise to resolve in the background and display the
new/unread counts when the promise resolves.
What this change?
We are currently not fully satisfied with the current way to edit the
categories and tags that appears in the sidebar where the user is
redirected to the tracking preferences tab in the user's profile causing
the user to lose context of the current page. In addition, the dropdown
to select categories or tags limits the amount of information we can
display.
Since editing or adding a custom categories section is already using a
modal, we have decided to switch editing the categories and tags that
appear in the sidebar to use a modal as well.
This commit ships a first pass of the edit categories modal such that we
can keep the commit small and reviewable. The incomplete nature of the
feature is also reflected in the fact that the feature is hidden behind
a new `new_edit_sidebar_categories_tags_interface_groups` site setting.
One user can create a post or chat message with a hashtag they
have permission to use, but then when other users look at that
post they will see an empty space next to the hashtag because they
do not have the permission to load the colors in CSS classes for
the related category.
This fixes the issue by adding a default color with a special
CSS class if the user doesn't have permission to see the linked
channel/category on the hashtag.
Display modal for combined new and unread view with options:
- [x] Dismiss new topics
- [x] Dismiss new posts
- [ ] Stop tracking these topics so they stop appearing in my new list
Previously, the topic is pinned/unpinned even when the bookmark icon is pressed in the topic list page. Because we didn't check the class names of topic status icons.
What is this change required?
The `enable_offline_indicator` site setting is disabled by default so
there is no need for us to be rendering an extra Ember component when
the site setting is not enabled.
Why this change?
Before this change, the `GroupNotificationsButton` is rendered in the
template of `userPrivateMessages` route based on a conditional that
checks if the `isGroup` property is true. However, the `isGroup`
property is determined based on the child route that is rendered.
However, this leads to "jankiness" in the UI because the
`GroupNotificationsButton` will be rendered once the route is entered
even if the model for the child route has not been resolved yet.
What is the solution?
In order to avoid this, we move the rendering of the
`GroupNotificationsButton` into the template of the
`userPrivateMessages.group` route and rely on the `in-element` helper to
render it into the right spot in the template of the
`userPrivateMessages` route.
This removes the modal container named-outlet/controller/template and replaces it with a component. Named outlets will be removed in Ember 4.x, so this change is part of that upgrade project.
Smaller changes include:
- update some of the computed values to be getters rather than calculated during `show()`.
- update tests which were previously depending on the modal class persisting after the modal was closed
Much of the logic in the service will be deprecated once we introduce component-based modals.
This work is split out from https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/21304
Why does this change do?
This commit updates the educate message displayed when there are no new
topics on the `/new` route when the experimental new new view site setting is enabled.
The commit also fixes a couple of bugs:
1. Correct default auto track minutes used in the copy for unread
topics from the 4 minutes to 5 minutes.
2. Correct link to user's preference in copy to go to tracking tab
instead of notifications tab.
Before, the review button was shown in `primary section` when there were items to review. Otherwise, it was hidden in `more section`.
Because we are allowing admins to customize community section and reorder link, it makes sense to simplify that logic and review link should follow admin's decision.
What is the problem?
When opening the composer, we are seeing multiple requests made to
the `/composer_messages` endpoint. This is due to our use of the
`transitionend` event on the `#reply-control` element. The event is
fired once for each transition event and the `#reply-control` element
has multiple transition events.
What is the solution?
Since are only interested in the `height` transition event, we add a
condition to check that the callback function is only triggered when the
`propertyName` of the `transitionend` event is `height`.
Why is there no tests for this change?
In QUnit, we have `transition: none !important` set in the stylesheet
with no easy way to disable. We'll have to accept the risk of not
writing test for this performance fix.
Meta topic: https://meta.discourse.org/t/mention-suggestion-list-box-in-the-rtl-website-in-wrong-place/266763?u=osama.
Our autocomplete box doesn't currently take into account the user's locale and places itself off-screen when using an RTL locale. This commit changes the placement logic for the autocomplete box when an RTL locale is used to make sure that:
1. the autocomplete box's right side is near and to the left of the caret
2. the autocomplete box doesn't go beyond the composer's left side.
