* 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.
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.
Rails yanked out observers many many years ago, instead the functionality
was yanked out to a gem that is very lightly maintained.
For example: if we want to upgrade to rails 5 there is no published gem
Internally the usage of observers had quite a few problem.
The series of refactors renamed a bunch of classes to give us more clarity
and removed some magic.
- 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
FEATURE: clicking envelope takes you to inbox
Suggested messages works somewhat like suggested topics.
- New show up first (in either group inbox or inbox)
- Then unread (in either group inbox or inbox)
- Finally "related" which are messages with same participants as the current pm.
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
