What is the problem?
Before this change, we were relying on the `/tags` endpoint which
returned all the tags that are visible to a give user on the site leading to potential performance problems.
The attribute keys of the response also changes based on the `tags_listed_by_group` site setting.
What is the fix?
This commit fixes the problems listed above by creating a dedicate `#list` action in the
`TagsController` to handle the listing of the tags in the edit
navigation menu tags modal. This is because the `TagsController#index`
action was created specifically for the `/tags` route and the response
body does not really map well to what we need. The `TagsController#list`
action added here is also much safer since the response is paginated and
we avoid loading a whole bunch of tags upfront.
Why this change?
A new component based API for modals was introduced in
b3a23bd9d6. This commit moves the edit
navigation menu tags and categories modal to the new API.
Why this change?
We want the position of the filters to remain fixed when scrolling
through the list of categories or tags. Otherwise, the user has to
scroll all the way back to othe top in order to access the filters when
the list of categories or tags is large.
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.
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 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
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.
What does this change do?
This change adds the deselect all and reset to defaults buttons to the
edit navigation menu categories modal. The deselect all button when
click deselects all the selected categories in the modal. If the user
saves with no categories selected, the user's categories section in the
navigation menu will be set to the site's top categories.
The reset to defaults button is only shown when the
`default_navigation_menu_categories` site setting has been configured.
When clicked, the user's categories section in the navigation menu is
automatically set to the categories defined by the
`default_navigation_menu_categories` site setting.
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`.
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.
Followup to eae47d82e2,
we removed some specificity from the hashtag color
CSS classes, but now the color is being overridden
by the base hashtag-cooked.d-icon color. This color
is no longer needed, so we just remove that and
the specificity.
This commit makes some fundamental changes to how hashtag cooking and
icon generation works in the new experimental hashtag autocomplete mode.
Previously we cooked the appropriate SVG icon with the cooked hashtag,
though this has proved inflexible especially for theming purposes.
Instead, we now cook a data-ID attribute with the hashtag and add a new
span as an icon placeholder. This is replaced on the client side with an
icon (or a square span in the case of categories) on the client side via
the decorateCooked API for posts and chat messages.
This client side logic uses the generated hashtag, category, and channel
CSS classes added in a previous commit.
This is missing changes to the sidebar to use the new generated CSS
classes and also colors and the split square for categories in the
hashtag autocomplete menu -- I will tackle this in a separate PR so it
is clearer.
Change styling of filter input & remove button.
This follows the same pattern of design we use for search. In the search dropdown we do not have a button to search. We rely on pressing enter. I've also provided an example of Github's PR filter UI at the bottom of this comment.
We also do not have buttons like this on any other topic-list header. On tag and category dropdowns, we also rely on pressing enter to filter the topic list by chosen categories & tags.

Popper dropdowns used `position: fixed` or `position: absolute`. But in
tables, we want the content to use auto overflow horizontally, and that
causes the dropdowns to be hidden vertically in some scenarios.
Setting a containing block on the parent container fixes both placement
and overflow issues.
