This commit splits out the updating of `TopicUser#last_read_post_number` in
`TopicUser.ensure_consistency!` to a new
`TopicUser.update_last_read_post_number` method` which
`PostTiming.pretend_read` will now call instead. Previously,
`PostTiming.pretend_read` calls `TopicUser.ensure_consistency!` which in
turn calls `TopicUser.update_post_action_cache` but that is
unnecessary for `PostTiming.pretend_read` since `PostTiming.pretend_read` does not
affect the `TopicUser#liked` or `TopicUser.bookmarked` columns which
`TopicUser.update_post_action_cache` updates. As the query in
`TopicUser.update_post_action_cache` can be expensive, we should avoid
calling it when it isn't necessary.
One such scenario where it is unnecessary is when we are closing a
topic.
This gives us daily fidelity of topic view stats
New table stores a row per topic viewed per day tracking
anonymous and logged on views
We also have a new endpoint `/t/ID/views-stats.json` to get the statistics for the topic.

We're planning to implement a feature that allows adding required fields for existing users. This PR does some preparatory refactoring to make that possible. There should be no changes to existing behaviour. Just a small update to the admin UI.
This commit updates `Post#each_upload_url` to reject URLs that do not
have a host which matches `Discourse.current_hostname` but follows the
`/uploads/short-url` uploads URL format. This situation most commonly
happen when users copy upload URL link between different Discourse
sites.
This PR introduces a basic AdminNotice model to store these notices. Admin notices are categorized by their source/type (currently only notices from problem check.) They also have a priority.
In 07ecbb5a3b we ensure the mentions in a group's activity page worked properly but we missed adding proper support for infinite loading.
The client is using the `before` parameter instead of the `before_post_id` to do the pagination.
This adds support for `before` as well as some tests to ensure it doesn't regress.
I also added tests to the group's activity posts as well since those were missing.
Finally I deleted some unused code (`group.messages_for`) which is not used anymore.

Whenever one creates, updates, or deletes a post, we should keep the `topic.word_count` counter in sync.

When converting a PM to a public topic (and vice versa), if there was a validation error (like a topic already used, or a tag required or not allowed) the error message wasn't bubbled up nor shown to the user.
This fix ensures we properly stop the conversion whenever a validation error happens and bubble up the errors back to the user so they can be informed.
Internal ref - t/128795
Using the CategoryDrop on the categories page redirected the user to the
"latest topics" page with topics only from that category. With these
changes, selecting a category will take the user to a "subcategories
page" where only the subcategories of the selected property will be
displayed.
The users directory is updated on a daily cadence. However, when a site is new and doesn't have many users, it can be confusing that a user who has just joined doesn't show up in the users until a day after they join. To eliminate this confusion, this commit triggers a refresh for the users directory as soon as as a user joins, if the site is in bootstrap mode. The reason for the conditional trigger is that refreshing the users directory is an expensive operation and doing it often on a large site with many users could lead to performance problems.
Internal topic: t/126076.
It used to embed the objects which could lead to duplicated objects
when the same user or category was used multiple times (user was admin,
moderator and category or category was parent for multiple categories).
The automation plugin has 4 custom field types that are array typed. However, array typed custom fields are deprecated and should be migrated to JSON type.
This commit does a couple of things:
1. Migrate all four custom fields to JSON
2. Fix a couple of small bugs that have been discovered while migrating the custom fields to JSON (see the comments on this commit's PR for details https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/26939)
This reverts commit 0f4520867b.
This has led to two problems:
1. An incompatibility with Cloudflare's "auto minify" feature. They've deprecated this feature because of incompatibility with modern JS syntax. But unfortunately it will remain enabled on existing properties until 2024-08-05.
2. Discourse fails to boot in Safari 15. This is strange, because Safari does support all the required features in our production JS bundles. Even more strangely, things start working as soon as you open the developer tools. That suggests the cause could be a Safari bug rather than a simple incompatibility.
Reverting while we work out a path forward on both those issues.
decorator-transforms (https://github.com/ef4/decorator-transforms) is a modern replacement for babel's plugin-proposal-decorators. It provides a decorator implementation using modern browser features, without needing to enable babel's full suite of class feature transformations. This improves the developer experience and performance.
In local testing with Google's 'tachometer' tool, this reduces Discourse's 'init-to-render' time by around 3-4% (230ms -> 222ms).
It reduces our initial gzip'd JS payloads by 3.2% (2.43MB -> 2.35MB), or 7.5% (14.5MB -> 13.4MB) uncompressed.
Ignored columns can only be dropped when its associated post-deploy
migration has been promoted to a regular migration. This is so because
Discourse doesn't rely on a schema file system to setup a brand new
database and thus the column information will be loaded by the
application first before the post-deploy migration runs.
If there's ever a circular reference in categories, don't go into an infinite loop when generating the category slug.
Instead, keep track of parent ids, and bail out as soon as we're encountering one more than once.
In #22851 we added a dependent strategy for deleting upload references when a draft is destroyed. This, however, didn't catch all cases, because we still have some code that issues DELETE drafts queries directly to the database. Specifically in the weekly cleanup job handled by Draft#cleanup!.
This PR fixes that by turning the raw query into an ActiveRecord #destroy_all, which will invoke the dependent strategy that ultimately deletes the upload references. It also includes a post migration to clear orphaned upload references that are already in the database.
This commit introduces the `run_theme_migration` spec helper to allow
theme developers to write RSpec tests for theme migrations. For example,
this allows the following RSpec test to be written in themes:
```
RSpec.describe "0003-migrate-small-links-setting migration" do
let!(:theme) { upload_theme_component }
it "should set target property to `_blank` if previous target component is not valid or empty" do
theme.theme_settings.create!(
name: "small_links",
theme: theme,
data_type: ThemeSetting.types[:string],
value: "some text, #|some text 2, #, invalid target",
)
run_theme_migration(theme, "0003-migrate-small-links-setting")
expect(theme.settings[:small_links].value).to eq(
[
{ "text" => "some text", "url" => "#", "target" => "_blank" },
{ "text" => "some text 2", "url" => "#", "target" => "_blank" },
],
)
end
end
```
This change is being introduced because we realised that writting just
javascript tests for the migrations is insufficient since javascript
tests do not ensure that the migrated theme settings can actually be
successfully saved into the database. Hence, we are introduce this
helper as a way for theme developers to write "end-to-end" migrations
tests.
... wasn't working because it wasn't storing the proper "action" value.
Issue was that we were using the "action" parameter which is being used by Rails to determine which controller action to call.
We need to use the "action_key" parameter instead.
At the moment, there is no way to create a group of related watched words together. If a user needed a set of words to be created together, they'll have to create them individually one at a time.
This change attempts to allow related watched words to be created as a group. The idea here is to have a list of words be tied together via a common `WatchedWordGroup` record. Given a list of words, a `WatchedWordGroup` record is created and assigned to each `WatchedWord` record. The existing WatchedWord creation behaviour remains largely unchanged.

This change encourages users to title their threads to make it easier for other users to join in on conversations that matter to them.
The creator of the chat thread will receive a toast notification prompting them to add a thread title when on mobile and the thread has at least 5 sent replies.
In the "Consolidated Pageviews with Browser Detection (Experimental)"
report we used the same color for "Known Crawler" and "Other pageviews"
which makes the report confusing to look at, this commit makes them
different.
This commit introduces a few changes as a result of
customer issues with finding why a topic was relisted.
In one case, if a user edited the OP of a topic that was
unlisted and hidden because of too many flags, the topic
would get relisted by directly changing topic.visible,
instead of going via TopicStatusUpdater.
To improve tracking we:
* Introduce a visibility_reason_id to topic which functions
in a similar way to hidden_reason_id on post, this column is
set from the various places we change topic visibility
* Fix Post#unhide! which was directly modifying topic.visible,
instead we use TopicStatusUpdater which sets visibility_reason_id
and also makes a small action post
* Show the reason topic visibility changed when hovering the
unlisted icon in topic status on topic titles
Selecting the +subcategories option does not work sometimes when "lazy
load categories" is enabled because the subcategories may not be
fetched. This ensures that subcategories are loaded by requesting them
before being used.
In a large forum with millions of users and millions of user_fields
updating the list of dropdown user field options will result in a
502 now due to the large number of fields.
This commit moves the indexing into a job.
Our 'page_view_crawler' / 'page_view_anon' metrics are based purely on the User Agent sent by clients. This means that 'badly behaved' bots which are imitating real user agents are counted towards 'anon' page views.
This commit introduces a new method of tracking visitors. When an initial HTML request is made, we assume it is a 'non-browser' request (i.e. a bot). Then, once the JS application has booted, we notify the server to count it as a 'browser' request. This reliance on a JavaScript-capable browser matches up more closely to dedicated analytics systems like Google Analytics.
Existing data collection and graphs are unchanged. Data collected via the new technique is available in a new 'experimental' report.
This ensures we only ever store correct post and topic timing when the client
notifies.
Previous to this change we would blindly trust the client.
Additionally this has error correction code that will correct the last seen
post number when you visit a topic with incorrect timings.
