Dependency on gifsicle, allow_animated_avatars and allow_animated_thumbnails
site settings were all removed. Animated GIF images are still allowed, but
the generated optimized images are no longer animated for those (which were
used for avatars and thumbnails).
The added 'animated' is populated by extracting information using FastImage.
This field was used to selectively reoptimize old animations. This process
happens in the background.
* FEATURE: add penalty options for take action
Add the ability to silence or suspend users from the "take action"
button when moderators are flagging posts. This allows for a more streamlined
active moderation workflow, when moderating against a topic directly.
Now that we have support for user-selectable color schemes, it makes sense
to simplify seeding and theme updates in the wizard.
We now:
- seed only one theme, named "Default" (previously "Light")
- seed a user-selectable Dark color scheme
- rename the "Themes" wizard step to "Colors"
- update the default theme's color scheme if a default is set
(a new theme is created if there is no default)
Per Google, sites are encouraged to upgrade from `analytics.js` to `gtag.js` for Google Analytics tracking. This commit updates core Discourse to use the new `gtag.js` API Google is asking sites to use. This API has feature parity with `analytics.js` but does not use trackers.
When the server gets overloaded and lots of requests start queuing server
will attempt to shed load by returning 429 errors on background requests.
The client can flag a request as background by setting the header:
`Discourse-Background` to `true`
Out-of-the-box we shed load when the queue time goes above 0.5 seconds.
The only request we shed at the moment is the request to load up a new post
when someone posts to a topic.
We can extend this as we go with a more general pattern on the client.
Previous to this change, rate limiting would "break" the post stream which
would make suggested topics vanish and users would have to scroll the page
to see more posts in the topic.
Server needs this protection for cases where tons of clients are navigated
to a topic and a new post is made. This can lead to a self inflicted denial
of service if enough clients are viewing the topic.
Due to the internal security design of Discourse it is hard for a large
number of clients to share a channel where we would pass the full post body
via the message bus.
It also renames (and deprecates) triggerNewPostInStream to triggerNewPostsInStream
This allows us to load a batch of new posts cleanly, so the controller can
keep track of a backlog

* FIX: second factor cannot be enabled if SSO is enabled
If `enable_sso` setting is enabled then admin should not be able to
enable `enforce_second_factor` setting as that will lock users out.

To avoid blocking the sidekiq queue a limit of 10,000 digests per 30 minutes
is introduced.
This acts as a safety measure that makes sure we don't keep pouring oil on
a fire.
On multisites it is recommended to set the number way lower so sites do not
dominate the backlog. A reasonable default for multisites may be 100-500.
This can be controlled with the environment var
DISCOURSE_MAX_DIGESTS_ENQUEUED_PER_30_MINS_PER_SITE
See https://meta.discourse.org/t/changing-a-users-email/164512 for additional context.
Previously when an admin user changed a user's email we assumed that they would need a password reset too because they likely did not have access to their account. This proved to be incorrect, as there are other reasons a user needs admin to change their email. This PR:
* Changes the admin change email for user flow so the user is sent an email to confirm the change
* We now record who the email change request was requested by
* If the requested by user is admin and not the user we note this in the email sent to the user
* We also make the confirm change email route open to anonymous users, so it can be clicked by the user even if they do not have access to their account. If there is a logged in user we make sure the confirmation matches the current user.
Allows site administrators to pick different fonts for headings in the wizard and in their site settings. Also correctly displays the header logos in wizard previews.
Previously this site setting `embed unlisted` defaulted to false and
empty topics would be generated for embed, but those topics tend to take
up a lot of room on the topic lists.
This new default creates invisible topics by default until they receive
their first reply.
This is where they should be as far as ember is concerned. Note this is
a huge commit and we should be really careful everything continues to
work properly.
See https://meta.discourse.org/t/changing-a-users-email/164512 for context.
When admin changes an email for a user, we were incorrectly sending the password reset email to the user's old address. Also the new email does not come into effect until the reset password process is done, so this PR adds some notes to the admin to make this clearer.
This allows administrators to stop automatic redirect to an external authenticator. It only takes effect when there is a single authentication method, and the site is login_required
It's a more user-friendly alternative to the default select-kit list,
for settings that are simple lists of items (the regular list widget is
better for settings with choice options).
The site setting `search_recent_posts_size` controls the window of posts
that we will search through before trying to search through the full index
If this number is too low then the search quality can suffer a lot as recent
posts may dominate search. If the number is too high then performance will
suffer.
This attempts to find a happy medium, 1 million posts will cover the majority
of forums out there and should perform adequately.
Use the names as provided by discourse-fonts and remove the
translated strings.
It also ensures that the selected font is present in case a font will
be removed in the future.
This is a little bit of refactoring. Core Discourse should have default promotion message for TL2.
In addition, when the Discobot plugin is enabled, the user is invited to advanced training
It didn't provide much value to users as it often didn't match the number visible in the topic timeline. That's because `postNumber` is an implementation detail, while the timeline counts only full visible posts (no whispers, topic action notices, etc.)
To check if a post contains any embedded media, we look if the "image_sizes" attribute is present in the new post manager arguments.
We want to see one boxed links, but we only store the raw content of the post. To work around this, I extracted the onebox logic from the composer editor into a module.
We are making the changes from the PR #10563 the default behaviour. Now, if secure media is enabled, secure images will be embedded in emails by default instead of redacting them and displaying a message. This will be a nicer overall experience by default, and for forums that want to be super strict with redaction this setting can always be disabled.
This PR removes the user reminder topic timers, because that system has been supplanted and improved by bookmark reminders. The option is removed from the UI and all existing user reminder topic timers are migrated to bookmark reminders.
Migration does this:
* Get all topic_timers with status_type 5 (reminders)
* Gets all bookmarks where the user ID and topic ID match
* Loops through the found topic timers
* If there is no bookmark for the OP of the topic, then we just create a bookmark with a reminder
* If there is a bookmark for the OP of the topic and it does **not** have a reminder set, then just
update it with the topic timer reminder
* If there is a bookmark for the OP of the topic with a reminder then just discard the topic timer
* Cancels all outstanding user reminder topic timers
* **Trashes (not deletes) all user reminder topic timers**
Notes:
* For now I have left the user reminder topic timer job class in place; this is so the jobs can be cancelled in the migration. It and the specs will be deleted in the next PR.
* At a later date I will write a migration to delete all trashed user topic timers. They are not deleted here in case there are data issues and they need to be recovered.
* A future PR will change the UI of the topic timer modal to make it look more like the bookmark modal.
In some cases Discourse admins may opt for sessions not to persist when a
browser is closed.
This is particularly useful in healthcare and education settings where
computers are shared among multiple workers.
By default `persistent_sessions` site setting is enabled, to opt out you
must disable the site setting.
Currently, if a group's visibility is set to "Group owners, members" then the mods can't view those group pages. The same rule is applied for members visibility setting too.
This reverts commit 7fc7090. And fixed the spec test fails.
Currently, if a group's visibility is set to "Group owners, members" then the mods can't view those group pages. The same rule is applied for members visibility setting too.
This PR introduces a few important changes to secure media redaction in emails. First of all, two new site settings have been introduced:
* `secure_media_allow_embed_images_in_emails`: If enabled we will embed secure images in emails instead of redacting them.
* `secure_media_max_email_embed_image_size_kb`: The cap to the size of the secure image we will embed, defaulting to 1mb, so the email does not become too big. Max is 10mb. Works in tandem with `email_total_attachment_size_limit_kb`.
`Email::Sender` will now attach images to the email based on these settings. The sender will also call `inline_secure_images` in `Email::Styles` after secure media is redacted and attachments are added to replace redaction messages with attached images. I went with attachment and `cid` URLs because base64 image support is _still_ flaky in email clients.
All redaction of secure media is now handled in `Email::Styles` and calls out to `PrettyText.strip_secure_media` to do the actual stripping and replacing with placeholders. `app/mailers/group_smtp_mailer.rb` and `app/mailers/user_notifications.rb` no longer do any stripping because they are earlier in the pipeline than `Email::Styles`.
Finally the redaction notice has been restyled and includes a link to the media that the user can click, which will show it to them if they have the necessary permissions.
This is a temporary fix since fonts may be cached without CORS
A larger scale change needed.
Our long term solution here is to have the SCSS compilation pipeline take
care of this by introducing some SCSS var that can be consumed in the various
stylesheets.
We do not want to write a file on boot
This commit adds a new site setting "allowed_onebox_iframes". By default, all onebox iframes are allowed. When the list of domains is restricted, Onebox will automatically skip engines which require those domains, and use a fallback engine.
With the addition of `PostSearchData#private_message`, a partial
index consisting of only search data from regular posts can be created.
The partial index helps to speed up searches on large sites since PG
will not have to do an index scan on the entire search data index which
has shown to be a bottle neck.
When someone wants to add > 1000 users at once they will hit a timeout.
Therefore, we should introduce limit and inform the user when limit is exceeded.
Meta report: https://meta.discourse.org/t/spurious-permissions-error-after-deleting-last-bookmark/161289
When deleting all bookmarks in their list, users were seeing an "access denied" message instead of the regular no content message. This is because when we were calling loadMore and no further results were returned, we were presuming the null response from the resolved promise meant that there was a permissions error. Fixed this and moved the message into a computed property to show the correct message.
Like "default watching" and "default tracking" categories option now the "regular" categories support is added. It will be useful for sites that are muted by default. The user option will be displayed only if `mute_all_categories_by_default` site setting is enabled.
Enabling the moderators_manage_categories_and_groups site setting will allow moderator users to create/manage groups.
* show New Group form to moderators
* Allow moderators to update groups and read logs, where appropriate
* Rename site setting from create -> manage
* improved tests
* Migration should rename old log entries
* Log group changes, even if those changes mean you can no longer see the group
* Slight reshuffle
* RouteTo /g if they no longer have permissions to view group
Themes can now declare custom colors that get compiled in core's color definitions stylesheet, thus allowing themes to better support dark/light color schemes.
For example, if you need your theme to use tertiary for an element in a light color scheme and quaternary in a dark scheme, you can add the following SCSS to your theme's `color_definitions.scss` file:
```
:root {
--mytheme-tertiary-or-quaternary: #{dark-light-choose($tertiary, $quaternary)};
}
```
And then use the `--mytheme-tertiary-or-quaternary` variable as the color property of that element. You can also use this file to add color variables that use SCSS color transformation functions (lighten, darken, saturate, etc.) without compromising your theme's compatibility with different color schemes.
For sites that are configured to mute some or all categories and tags
for users by default, groups can now be configured to set members'
notification level to normal from the group manage UI.
The UI prevents users from trying to create tags on topics when they
don't have permission, but if you are trying to add tags to a topic via
the API and you don't have permission before this change it would
silently succeed in creating the topic, but it wouldn't have any tags.
Now a 422 error will be returned with an error message when trying to
create a topic with tags when tagging is disabled or you don't have
enough trust level to add tags to a topic.
Bug report: https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/70525/14
When a tab is open but left unattended for a while, the red, green, and blue
pills tend to go out of sync.
So whevener we open the notifications menu, we sync up the notification count
(eg. blue and green pills) with the server.
However, the reviewable count (eg. the red pill) is not a notification and
is located in the hamburger menu. This commit adds a new route on the server
side to retrieve the reviewable count for the current user and a ping
(refreshReviewableCount) from the client side to sync the reviewable count
whenever they open the hamburger menu.
REFACTOR: I also refactored the hamburger-menu widget code to prevent repetitive uses
of "this.".
PERF: I improved the performance of the 'notify_reviewable' job by doing only 1 query
to the database to retrieve all the pending reviewables and then tallying based on the
various rights.
* FEATURE: set notification levels when added to a group
This feature allows admins and group owners to define default
category and tag tracking levels that will be applied to user
preferences automatically at the time when users are added to the
group. Users are free to change those preferences afterwards.
When removed from a group, the user's notification preferences aren't
changed.
A first step to adding automatic dark mode color scheme switching. Adds a new SCSS file at `color_definitions.scss` that serves to output all SCSS color variables as CSS custom properties. And replaces all SCSS color variables with the new CSS custom properties throughout the stylesheets.
This is an alpha feature at this point, can only be enabled via console using the `default_dark_mode_color_scheme_id` site setting.
* DEV: Show message when cannot invite user to PM
When inviting a user to a PM return a message that says, "Sorry, this
user can't be invited." if they have been muted or are not in a users
allowed pm users list.
* Minor refactor & improved some text
After visiting a topic list (by tag / category / top level) we track the list
Once a list is tracked the combo `g` `j` can be used to go to the next topic
in the list and `g` `k` to go to previous topic.
This allows you to quickly work through subsets of topics without having
to navigate back to the top level lists
The shortcut does not work in PM lists yet, or search results, both are
under consideration.
Useful if you want to, say, have your unicorn listen on a Unix domain
socket, rather than a TCP port, or you want to be able to bind to a
single address other than 127.0.0.1.
Demon::EmailSync is used in conjunction with the SiteSetting.enable_imap to sync N IMAP mailboxes with specific groups. It is a process started in unicorn.conf, and it spawns N threads (one for each multisite connection) and for each database spans another N threads (one for each configured group).
We want this off by default so the process is not started when it does not need to be (e.g. development, test, certain hosting tiers)
There was a bug that even when `email_digest` was set to false but
`digest_after_minutes` was positive, we were not displaying correct
status.
In addition, the message is improved when the user is unsubscribed +
unsubscribe from all is hidden.
Previously, I thought it was better to drop the site into reading mode
when Redis has failed over to the replica but it created more errors
while Redis is in readonly mode since ActiveRecord would prevent us from
writing to PG even though PG is up.
This adds an option to "delete on owner reply" to bookmarks. If you select this option in the modal, then reply to the topic the bookmark is in, the bookmark will be deleted on reply.
This PR also changes the checkboxes for these additional bookmark options to an Integer column in the DB with a combobox to select the option you want.
The use cases are:
* Sometimes I will bookmark the topics to read it later. In this case we definitely don’t need to keep the bookmark after I replied to it.
* Sometimes I will read the topic in mobile and I will prefer to reply in PC later. Or I may have to do some research before reply. So I will bookmark it for reply later.
* FEATURE: Allow List for PMs
This feature adds a new user setting that is disabled by default that
allows them to specify a list of users that are allowed to send them
private messages. This way they don't have to maintain a large list of
users they don't want to here from and instead just list the people they
know they do want. Staff will still always be able to send messages to
the user.
* Update PR based on feedback
In 1bd8a075, a hidden site setting was added that causes Email::Styles
to treat its input as a complete document in all cases.
This commit enables that setting by default.
Some tests were removed that were broken by this change. They tested the
behaviour of applying email styles to empty strings. They weren't useful
because:
* Sending empty email is not something we ever intend to do,
* They were testing incidental behaviour - there are lots of
valid ways to process the empty string,
* Their intent wasn't clear from their descriptions,
* Remove unneeded bookmark name index.
* Change bookmark search query to use post_search_data. This allows searching on topic title and post content
* Tweak the style/layout of the bookmark list so the search looks better and the whole page fits better on mobile.
* Added scopes UI
* Create scopes when creating a new API key
* Show scopes on the API key show route
* Apply scopes on API requests
* Extend scopes from plugins
* Add missing scopes. A mapping can be associated with multiple controller actions
* Only send scopes if the use global key option is disabled. Use the discourse plugin registry to add new scopes
* Add not null validations and index for api_key_id
* Annotate model
* DEV: Move default mappings to ApiKeyScope
* Remove unused attribute and improve UI for existing keys
* Support multiple parameters separated by a comma
Syntax highlighting is a CPU-intensive process which we run a lot while rendering posts and while using the composer preview. Moving it to a background worker releases the main thread to the browser, which makes the UX much smoother.
Considering document length in search introduced too much variance in
our search results such that it makes certain searches better but at the
same time made certain searches worst. Instead, we want to have a more
determistic way of ranking search so that it is easier to reason about
why a post is rank higher in search than another.
The long term plan to tackle repeated terms is to restrict the number of
positions for a given lexeme in our search index.
```
discourse_development=# SELECT alias, lexemes FROM TS_DEBUG('www.discourse.org');
alias | lexemes
-------+---------------------
host | {www.discourse.org}
discourse_development=# SELECT TO_TSVECTOR('www.discourse.org');
to_tsvector
-----------------------
'www.discourse.org':1
```
Given the above lexeme, we will inject additional lexeme by splitting
the host on `.`. The actual tsvector stored will look something like
```
tsvector
---------------------------------------
'discourse':1 'discourse.org':1 'org':1 'www':1 'www.discourse.org':1
```
* Do not autofocus name input on mobile
* Improve code for formatted reminder type times to not be computed, so the modal times update correctly
* Change wording of "Next Monday" to "Monday" for all days except when today is Monday
Category and tag hashtags used to be handled differently even though
most of the code was very similar. This design was the root cause of
multiple issues related to hashtags.
This commit reduces the number of requests (just one and debounced
better), removes the use of CSS classes which marked resolved hashtags,
simplifies a lot of the code as there is a single source of truth and
previous race condition fixes are now useless.
It also includes a very minor security fix which let unauthorized users
to guess hidden tags.
* strip out the href and xlink:href attributes from use element that
are _not_ anchors in svgs which can be used for XSS
* adding the content-disposition: attachment ensures that
uploaded SVGs cannot be opened and executed using the XSS exploit.
svgs embedded using an img tag do not suffer from the same exploit
`Nokogiri::HTML.fragment` is a huge hack (a comment in the source code
admits this). The current behavior of `Email::Styles` is to try to
emulate `fragment` using nokogumbo, but it misses some edge cases. In
particular, meta tags in a email template don't make it through to the
final email.
Instead of treating the provided HTML as an indeterminate fragment, this
commit makes `Email::Styles` treat the HTML as a complete document. This
means that the generated HTML for an email will now always contain top
level structure (a doctype, html, head and body tags).
This new behavior is behind a hidden site setting for now and defaults
off.
Previously we would include this section, unfortunately
1. It is usually elided in gmail
2. It can make the emails longer and more confusing
3. Omission is a feature, it means people need to visit site to get context
There is a feature in search where we take over from the tokenizer
in postgres and attempt to inject more words into search.
So for example: sam.i.am will inject the words i and am.
This is not ideal cause there are many edge cases and this can
cause extreme index bloat.
This is an opening move commit to make it configurable, over the
next few weeks we will evaluate and decide if we disable this by
default or simply remove.
The admin permalink list was a little tricky to use because the URLs are easily reduced with a ... if they are too long. This adds a copy to clipboard button for the URL and a title on hover so the full text of the URL can be seen.
* FEATURE: Don't display muted/ignored users under "who liked"
Previously, if you clicked on the heart icon below a post
it would show you the avatar for a user even if you ignored or muted
them.
This commit will instead display a (?) icon. The count of likes will
remain correct, but you needn't be reminded of the person you
preferred not to see.
* Use a circle instead of (?) for unknown user
If people wish to opt out they can use `DISABLE_BOOTSNAP = 1`
Bootsnap is production ready and was tested on our production
servers for safety.
Promoting it now so it is enabled globally.
Will result in faster application boot
