Why this change?
This is caused by a regression in
59839e428f, where we stopped saving the
`Theme` object because it was unnecessary. However, it resulted in the
`after_save` callback not being called and hence
`Theme#update_javascript_cache!` not being called. As a result, some
sites were reporting that after runing a theme migration, the defaults
for the theme settings were used instead of the settings overrides
stored in the database.
What does this change do?
Add a call to `Theme#update_javascript_cache!` after running theme
migrations.
This patch allows running system specs on an aarch64 Linux system
(typically our `discourse_dev` docker image).
As Chrome isn’t available for the aarch64 architecture (yet), we have to
rely on Firefox instead. This has some drawbacks like not being able to
access the browser logs like we do with the Chrome webdriver.
These routes were previously rendered using Rails, and had a fairly fragile 2fa implementation in vanilla-js. This commit refactors the routes to be handled in the Ember app, removes the custom vanilla-js bundles, and leans on our centralized 2fa implementation. It also introduces a set of system specs for the behavior.
Internal links always notify and add internal connections in topics.
This adds a special feature that lets you append `?silent=true` to a link
to have it excluded from:
1. Notifications - users will not be notified for these links
2. Post links below posts in the UI
This is specifically useful for large reports where adding all these connections
just results in noise.
In a handful of situations, we need to verify a user's 2fa credentials before `current_user` is assigned. For example: login, email_login and change-email confirmation. This commit adds an explicit `target_user:` parameter to the centralized 2fa system so that it can be used for those situations.
For safety and clarity, this new parameter only works for anon. If some user is logged in, and target_user is set to a different user, an exception will be raised.
For performance reasons we don't automatically add fabricated users to trust level auto-groups. However, when explicitly passing a trust level to the fabricator, in 99% of cases it means that trust level is relevant for the test, and we need the groups.
This change makes it so that when a trust level is explicitly passed to the fabricator, the auto-groups are refreshed. There's no longer a need to also pass refresh_auto_groups: true, which means clearer tests, fewer mistakes, and less confusion.
When exporting a csv file and the size of the file exceeded the
max_export_file_size_kb it will still send the PM that the export
succeeded with a broken link to a missing export file. This change
ensures that a failed message will be sent instead.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_level_to_tag_topics site setting to tag_topic_allowed_groups.
We have all these calls to Group.refresh_automatic_groups! littered throughout the tests. Including tests that are seemingly unrelated to groups. This is because automatic group memberships aren't fabricated when making a vanilla user. There are two places where you'd want to use this:
You have fabricated a user that needs a certain trust level (which is now based on group membership.)
You need the system user to have a certain trust level.
In the first case, we can pass refresh_auto_groups: true to the fabricator instead. This is a more lightweight operation that only considers a single user, instead of all users in all groups.
The second case is no longer a thing after #25400.
We want to exclude the system user from group user counts, since intuitively admins wouldn't include them.
Originally this was accomplished by booting said system user from the groups, but this is causing problems, because the system user needs TL group membership to perform certain tasks.
After this PR, system user is still in the TL groups, but excluded when refreshing the user count.
Previously, it was not possible to modify the sorting order of the `TopicQuery` result from a plugin. This feature adds support to specify custom sorting functionality in a plugin. We're using the `apply_modifier` method in the `DiscoursePluginRegistry` module to achieve it.

Some preparatory refactoring as we're working on TL groups for the system user. On User we have a scope #human_users to exclude the system user, DiscoBot, etc. This PR adds the same scope (delegated to User) on Group.
Why this change?
We have been seeing specs time out on GitHub CI but the problem is that
we are unable to debug those timeouts due to a lack of information. This
change seeks to print out the backtraces of all threads right before a
spec times out on CI.
What does this change do?
1. Starts a thread on CI which will wait for a spec to start running.
1. Once a spec starts running, the thread will sleep for
`PER_SPEC_TIMEOUT_SECONDS -1` seconds.
1. After sleeping, the thread checks if the spec is still running and
prints out the backtraces of all threads if it is. Otherwise, the
thread does nothing and runs the next loop.
1. At the end of each spec run, we ensure that the thread is in a
waiting state for the next spec run to start.
Note that there is no need for us to teardown or cleanup the thread
since the process terminates after running all the tests.
This is a temporary fix to address an issue where the
system user is losing its automatic groups when the server
is running. If any auto groups are provided, and the user is
a system user, then we return true. The system user is admin,
moderator, and TL4, so they usually have all auto groups.
We can remove this when we get to the bottom of why the auto
groups are being deleted.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_level_for_user_api_key site setting to user_api_key_allowed_groups.
This isn't used by any of our plugins or themes, so very little fallout.
If configuring only moderators in a group based access setting, the mapping to the old setting wouldn't work correctly, because the case was unaccounted for.
This PR accounts for moderators group when doing the mapping.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_to_post_links site setting to post_links_allowed_groups.

The old strategy used to load 25 categories at a time, including the
subcategories. The new strategy loads 20 parent categories and at most
5 subcategories for each parent category, for a maximum of 120
categories in total.
- Decrease gravity, we come in too hot prioritizing too many new topics
- Remove all muted topics / categories and tags from the hot list
- Punish topics with zero likes in algorithm
Why this change?
We have been looking into a flaky system tests in one of our plugins
where the DB transaction flow can be messed up from time to time. Our
debugging effort is complicated by that fact that `test-prof` starts a
DB transaction in a `before(:all)` block which makes it hard to properly
log information. By allowing test-prof to be disabled completely, we
believe it will make it easier for us to isolate the problem we are
investigating.
What does this change do?
1. Avoid loading test-prof files if `PREFABRICATION` env has been set to
`0`.
2. Set `PREFABRICATION=0` for plugin system tests in Github actions
This introduces a new experimental hot sort ordering.
It attempts to float top conversations by first prioritizing a topics with lots of recent activity (likes and users responding)
The schedule that updates hot topics is disabled unless the hidden site setting: `experimental_hot_topics` is enabled.
You can control "decay" with `hot_topic_gravity` and `recency` with `hot_topics_recent_days`
Data is stored in the new `topic_hot_scores` table and you can check it out on the `/hot` route once
enabled.

Why this change?
Currently, is it hard to iteratively write a theme settings migrations
because our theme migrations system does not rollback. Therefore, we
want to allow theme developers to be able to write QUnit tests for their
theme migrations files enabling them to iteratively write their theme
migrations.
What does this change do?
1. Update `Theme#baked_js_tests_with_digest` to include all `ThemeField`
records of `ThemeField#target` equal to `migrations`. Note that we do
not include the `settings` and `themePrefix` variables for migration files.
2. Don't minify JavaScript test files becasue it makes debugging in
development hard.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_level_to_tag_topics site setting to tag_topic_allowed_groups.
This commit makes it so the admin sidebar (when enabled)
will hide the other forum sidebar sections on mobile, the
same way it does on desktop. It was not happening automatically
because the sidebar component is also inside the hamburger-dropdown
component, which is used on mobile.

* FIX: respect creation date when paginating group activity posts
There are scenarios where the chronological order of posts doesn't match the order of their IDs. For instance, when moving the first post from one topic or PM to another, a new post (with a higher ID) will be created, but it will retain the original creation time.
This PR changes the group activity page and endpoint to paginate posts using created_at instead of relying on ID ordering.
Why this change?
Importing theme with the `bundle` params is used mainly by
`discourse_theme` CLI in the development environment. However, we do not
want migrations to automatically run in the development environment
and instead want the developer to be intentional about running theme
migrations. As such, this commit adds support for a
`skip_migrations` param when importing a theme with the `bundle` params.
This commit also adds a `migrated` attribute for migrations theme fields
to indicate whether a migrations theme field has been migrated or not.
When navigating straight to a topic the category was not displayed at
all because the categories were not loaded. Similarly, the categories
for suggested topics were not loaded either.
This commit adds a list of categories to topic view model class and
serializer.
