Support threads in DMs and group chats so members can keep their conversations organized.
This change adds a new toggle switch for threads within the Chat Channel Settings screen. For new direct message channels threading is enabled by default.
We have made a decision to exclude direct message threads from the My Threads screen for now.
This commit fixes an issue where the following happens:
1. The user opens a page where an alternative sidebar panel is displayed like /admin or other page where a plugin is displaying an alternative sidebar like the `docs-categories` plugin
2. Clicking the chat icon in the header and opening the drawer, or if you just minimize chat into drawer after it opens full-screen
3. The alternative sidebar panel is lost and reverted to the main panel.
On the chat channel settings page, we want to show a single Send push notifications setting instead of the current Desktop notifications and Mobile push notifications settings.
For existing users, use the Mobile push notifications setting value for the new Send push notifications setting.
This commit attempts to improve the mobile experience for
admin page header and subheader by automatically collapsing
all action buttons in these components into a DMenu when viewing
mobile.
This is done by using different "list" wrapper components and a
DMenu trigger and a DropdownMenu on mobile only, and uses has-block
to determine whether to render the DMenu trigger at all.
This also removes the `PluginOutlet` in `AdminPluginConfigPage`, it
was too inflexible for this `DropdownMenu` case, and since the `:actions`
were always rendering we couldn't rely on `has-block`. A new plugin API,
`registerPluginHeaderActionComponent`, has been introduced instead to
replace it.
Makes channel_id and is_direct_message_channel consistent across desktop notifications, which also removes the need to lookup the channel from Chat Notification Manager.
In 61c1d35f17 I added a
PluginOutlet to AdminPluginConfigPage. This was intended to be
used as a way to render actions buttons inside the header of
a plugin that has a custom admin UI page. This worked, but
since the outlet was generically named, as soon as one plugin
used it the button would show on all plugins.
This fixes the immediate issue by naming the outlet based
on the plugin, then having each plugin specify their own
outlet to render into. There may be a nicer way to do this,
but for now this stops the bleeding.
This change adds full names to direct message channel titles when the following conditions are met:
- SiteSetting.enable_names = true
- SiteSetting.display_name_on_posts = true
- SiteSetting.prioritize_username_in_ux = false
If a user's full name is blank, it will fallback to their username in both 1-1 channels and Group DM channels.
On occasion we get an error popup on desktop due to the channel not being found.
This change means that we only check the cached channels in ChatChannelsManager for the matching channel id, but we skip doing manual lookup which results in ajax popup when it fails.
This commit converts the current chat plugin UI into the
new "show plugin" UI already followed by AI and Gamification.
In the process, I also:
* Made a dedicated /new route to create new webhooks
* Converted the webhook form to FormKit
* Made some fixes and improvements to the `AdminPluginConfigPage`, `AdminPageHeader`,
and `AdminPageSubheader` generic components, so more plugins can
adopt the UI guidelines too. This includes adding a header outlet so plugins
can add action buttons to the plugin show page header.
* Fixes the submit button loading state for FormKit (by Joffrey)

Every time a desktop chat sound plays, there should be some visual cue as to why the sound was played in the first place.
This change follows the chat indicator preference:
- All New Messages - a blue dot is shown for all messages, so we attempt to play a sound every time
- Direct Messages, Mentions and Watched Threads - a green dot is shown for all urgent messages, so we attempt to play a sound for urgent chat notifications
- Only Mentions - only play chat sounds when user is mentioned
- Never - we never play chat sounds, as user wouldn’t know why the sound was played
Chat toggle relies on using a height: auto to collapse drawer, however in channel threads we should be only displaying threads when drawer is expanded. Displaying threads conditionally based on drawer toggle status fixes this.
This change increases the visibility of unread channels to make them stand out more in drawer mode (desktop).
When a channel is unread:
- it floats to the top;
- when multiple channels are unread, they are sorted alphabetically (equal to how it’s done on mobile)
- the unread indicator blue dot moves to directly right of the channel name
We need to start printing deprecation notices when the `show_in_ui` argument is used because it works only for the old about page which will be removed soon. For the new about page, we've introduced a new API `addAboutPageActivity` which is more flexible than a true/false argument on the server side.
Internal topic: t/136551.
This change introduces a new thread notification level allowing users to get notified when someone replies to the thread.
Users who watch a thread will get a green notification on the chat icon and a user notification (blue). User notifications are consolidated based on thread id to prevent cluttering the original users notification area.

We're working to remove all decorators from object-literal-properties. This commit refactors all initializers which were using these decorators into classes, where decorators are allowed. Also adds cleanup logic to the local-dates initializer, which was previously missing.
Removes chat-specific changes from dfc947a97d, and adds `preventScroll: true` to prevent timing issues between the emoji picker being brought into the viewport and being focussed.
This commit introduces a new frontend API to add custom items to the "Site activity" section in the new /about page. The new API is called `addAboutPageActivity` and it works along side the `register_stat` serve-side API which serializes the data that the frontend API consumes. More details of how the two APIs work together is in the JSDoc comment above the API function definition.
Internal topic: t/128545/9.
This commit improves the hilight-ing of mentions in posts and chat messages.
- `@here` and `@all` will generate a `<a class="mention --wide">`
- bots will generate a `<a class="mention --bot">`
- current user will generate a `<a class="mention --current">`
To achieve this change the following value transformer has been added: "mentions-class". It will be run in posts and chat messages after the mention is rendered.
A bug were bots were not considered in mentioned users has also been fixed as part of this PR.
This is a variation on bc3e8a9963cf9a64d114ec751c875025af169690, which was reverted due to issues on iOS. Safari's "in response to user action" check cannot follow the `runAfterFramePaint` chain of interaction -> requestAnimationFrame -> messageChannel, and so some sensitive browser APIs (e.g. clipboard, upload, etc.) were blocked.
This commit is similar, but uses `next()` instead of `runAfterFramePaint()`. The result seems the same, but doesn't have the same issue on iOS.
The chat-emoji-picker change was required to resolve a test failure. The emoji picker has never closed-on-scroll on desktop, so there is no user-facing change in behavior.
This outlet is rendered before the content of the drawer. The `currentRouteName` is accessible in `outletArgs`.
Example:
```gjs
export default class Test extends Component {
<template>
{{#if (eq @outletArgs.currentRouteName "chat.browse")}}
the browse page
{{/if}}
</template>
}
```

This is a performance optimisation to prevent the same route to keep reloading the same endpoint.
No tests as it's not changing behavior and is also quite complex to test efficiently.
This commit ensures the browse page can be loaded in the drawer and doesn’t force full page mode.
Other notable changes of this commit:
- be consistent about wrapping each full page route with "c-routes.--route-name" and each drawer container with "c-drawer-routes.--route-name"
- move browse channels into its own component, it was before in the template of the channels browse
Prior to this fix the following sequence would cause an overflow:
- open a thread
- expand thread panel to maximum width
- close panel
- reduce window width
- open thread again
- 💥
The fix is now ensuring that we never use or set a width which would cause the main panel + side panel to be larger than the chat container. We also removed the service as it was overkill for this case and it's easier to have all the implementation at one place.
This commit also uses JS animation api to set the width of the panel.
<!-- NOTE: All pull requests should have tests (rspec in Ruby, qunit in JavaScript). If your code does not include test coverage, please include an explanation of why it was omitted. -->
Prior to this fix we would show the message after a round trip to the server. If you had a too long message error, at this point your input would be empty and we would show an error in chat. It's important to have this server side safety net, but we can have a better UX by showing an error on the frontend before sending the message, that way you can correct your message before sending it and not lose it.
I am changing many of these to notes or resolving them as is,
most of these I have not actively worked on in years so someone
else can work on them when we get to these areas again.
There is currently only one scenario when both the composer and a user card would be present at the same time:
if you have the composer open and then you click on something outside it that triggers a card. Which implies intent to see the card (unobstructed by the composer 😉)
The reverse doesn't happen because opening the composer would close an existing user card.
In theory there's also displaying a user card by clicking on a mention in composer's preview but that functionality is currently broken (and this PR is a prerequisite 😉)
---
I changed `.user-card, .group-card` to `.fk-d-menu[data-identifier="card"]` because that regressed when we moved user cards to float-kit – they are nested inside `.fk-d-menu` so its `z-index` is now important (effectively the cards had `z-index: z("dropdown")` instead of `z("usercard")`)
* remove default prop values where they're being set in constructor
* replace some `||` operators in constructors with `??` so the fallback boolean values are actually used
* remove an unused service injection (and sort the rest)
* remove unused prop
* inline an arg check
* remove an unnecessary `?.` operator
* sort element attributes
This change replaces the chat drawer tabs with new drawer routes for channels, direct messages and threads.
The main objective is to improve navigation within drawer, now that we have separation of chat sections in drawer.
In 4e7a75a7ec, we moved to a single admin plugin page and added a few fields to the "plugin serializer" but we already had a proper route with the correct serializers to properly load channels.
This fixes it by removing the "add_to_serializer" calls and changed the calls to "/admin/plugins/chat.json" to the proper "/admin/plugins/chat/hooks.json" route.
Meta - https://meta.discourse.org/t/names-are-missing-from-list-when-creating-new-chat-channel-webhooks/308481
This change prevents explicitly declaring each route that should be intercepted for chat drawer mode.
In theory all chat drawer routes should be intercepted from the main chat routes file and therefore we would only need to add new drawer routes directly within chat-drawer-router.js.
This change allows chat drawer users to edit channel settings and members without leaving drawer mode. If a channel is open within chat drawer and the user clicks the Channel name, it will load channel settings within the drawer.
This change allows the correct number of members to be added when creating a group direct message, based on the site setting chat_max_direct_message_users.
Previously we counted the current user within the max user limit and therefore the count was off by 1.
Under some circumstances, the TextField component could trigger a `Assertion Failed: You attempted to update attrs on ..., but it had already been used previously in the same computation...` error, causing the Ember app to crash.
A few follup changes after changing to the chat footer split for drawer:
* Fixing a bug that stretched the unread indicator on mobile
* Minor style changes in hover/focus behaviour for chat drawer
* Repositioning of unread indicator so it has more space at the top of the footer
* Using the `c-unread-indicator` mixin
Adds a placeholder image + CTA in chat, for empty channel and DM lists.
On desktop with drawer mode, we split chat into tabs (like mobile).

Prior to this fix we had too logic to detect if a user is active or not:
- idle codepath on the frontend
- online user ids on the backend
The frontend solution is not very reliable, and both solution are just trying to be too smart. Making a lot of people questioning why they receive a notification sometimes and sometimes not. This commit removes all this logic and replaces it with a much more simpler logic:
- you can't receive notifications for channel you are actually watching
- we won't play a sound more than once every 3seconds
The `onNotification` signature is:
```
onNotification(data, siteSettings, user, appEvents)
```
And we were not passing `appEvents`.
Also explicitly inject `currentUser` in `chat-notification-manager` service.
We consider that you should always receive a notification sound when someone speaks directly with you in chat.
This commit also refactors the way we play audio in chat to make it simpler and throttle it to 3 seconds.
We also added a safeguard to ensure we won't play sounds for old messages, this case can happen when message bus is catching up the backlog (eg: in an inactive tab for example).
When users click a link that points to an existing group chat, we should reopen that chat instead of creating a new group chat so users can more easily continue ongoing conversations.
activeChannel is something we should use less and less as it could not exist, in this case we have the channel right here in the function so there's no reason to reach for `this.chat.activeChannel`.
