This change shows a notification number besides the flag icon in the
post menu if there is reviewable content associated with the post.
Additionally, if there is pending stuff to review, the icon has a red
background.
We have also removed the list of links below a post with the flag
status. A reviewer is meant to click the number beside the flag icon to
view the flags. As a consequence of losing those links, we've removed
the ability to undo or ignore flags below a post.
After careful analysis of large data-sets it became apparent that avg_time
had no impact whatsoever on "best of" topic scoring. Calculating avg_time
was a very costly operation especially on large databases.
We have some longer term plans of introducing other weighting that is read
time based into our scoring for "best of" and "top" topics, but in the
interim to stop a large amount of work that is not achieving any value we
are removing the jobs.
Column removal will follow once we decide on a new replacement metric.
This change automatically resizes icons for various purposes. Admins can now upload `logo` and `logo_small`, and everything else will be auto-generated. Specific icons can still be uploaded separately if required.
## Core
- Adds an SiteIconManager module which manages automatic resizing and fallback
- Icons are looked up in the OptimizedImage table at runtime, and then cached in Redis. If the resized version is missing for some reason, then most icons will fall back to the original files. Some icons (e.g. PWA Manifest) will return `nil` (because an incorrectly sized icon is worse than a missing icon).
- `SiteSetting.site_large_icon_url` will return the optimized version, including any fallback. `SiteSetting.large_icon` continues to return the upload object. This means that (almost) no changes are required in core/plugins to support this new system.
- Icons are resized whenever a relevant site setting is changed, and during post-deploy migrations
## Wizard
- Allows `requiresRefresh` wizard steps to reload data via AJAX instead of a full page reload
- Add placeholders to the **icons** step of the wizard, which automatically update from the "Square Logo"
- Various copy updates to support the changes
- Remove the "upload-time" resizing for `large_icon`. This is no longer required.
## Site Settings UX
- Move logo/icon settings under a new "Branding" tab
- Various copy changes to support the changes
- Adds placeholder support to the `image-uploader` component
- Automatically reloads site settings after saving. This allows setting placeholders to change based on changes to other settings
- Upload site settings will be assigned a placeholder if SiteIconManager `responds_to?` an icon of the same name
## Dashboard Warnings
- Remove PWA icon and PWA title warnings. Both are now handled automatically.
## Bonus
- Updated the sketch logos to use @awesomerobot's new high-res designs
This is a first step of a performance optimisation, more will follow
Previously we did not properly account for previously read topics while
"rushing" marking times on posts.
The new mechanism now avoids "rushing" sending timings to server if all
the posts were read.
Also to alleviate some server load we only "ping" the server with old timings
once a minute (it used to be every 20 seconds)
- Plugin developers using OpenID2.0 should migrate to OAuth2 or OIDC. OpenID2.0 APIs will be removed in v2.4.0
- For sites requiring Yahoo login, it can be implemented using the OpenID Connect plugin: https://meta.discourse.org/t/103632
