When using `Discourse.cache.fetch` with an expiry, there's a potential for a race condition due to how we read the data from redis.
The code used to be
```ruby
raw = redis.get(key) if !force
entry = read_entry(key) if raw
return entry if raw && !(entry == :__corrupt_cache__)
```
with `read_entry` defined as follow
```ruby
def read_entry(key)
if data = redis.get(key)
Marshal.load(data)
end
rescue => e
:__corrupt_cache__
end
```
If the value at "key" expired in redis between `raw = redis.get` and `entry = read_entry`, the `entry` variable would be `nil` despite `raw` having a value.
We would then proceed to return `entry` (which is `nil`) thinking it had a value, when it didn't.
The first `redis.get` can be skipped altogether and we can rely only on `read_entry` to read the data from redis. Thus avoiding the race condition and removing the double read operations.

In certain config areas (like About) we want to be able
to fetch specific site settings by name. In this case,
sometimes we need to be able to fetch hidden settings,
in cases where a config area is still experimental.
Splitting out a different endpoint for this purpose
allows us to be stricter with what we return for config
areas without affecting the main site settings UI, revealing
hidden settings before they are ready.
`addCommunitySectionLink` API function accepts secondary argument to determine if the link should be added to the primary or secondary (more) section. There was a bug and all links were mounted in the secondary section.
Since switching to Maxmind permalinks to download the databases in
7079698cdf, we have received multiple
reports about rebuilds failing as `maxminddb:refresh` runs during
the rebuilds and failing to download the databases cases the rebuilds to
fail.
Downloading Maxmind databases should not sit in the critical rebuild
path but since we are close to the Discourse 3.3 release, we have opted
to just rescue all errors encountered when downloading the databases.
In the near future after the Discourse 3.3 release, we will be looking
at moving the downloading of maxmind databases out of the rebuild path.
We have a dedicated admin page (`/admin/customize/email_templates`) that lets admins customize all emails that Discourse sends to users. The way this page works is that it lists all translations strings that are used for emails, and the list of translation strings is currently hardcoded and hasn't been updated in years. We've had a number of new emails that Discourse sends, so we should add those templates to the list to let admins easily customize those templates.
Meta topic: https://meta.discourse.org/t/3-2-x-still-ignores-some-custom-email-templates/308203.
In this case, there is no 'nearPost' param in the URL. Instead, the server preloads a post-stream with whichever page of posts is requested. We can check for that situation using `postStream.firstPostPresent`.
Also updates the widget-header version to fetch a value from the service on initial render, instead of relying on the observer triggering.

Currently, if MF definitions are missing (typically because there’s a
compilation error), `I18n.messageFormat` will try to access
`I18n._mfMessages.hasMessage` resulting in a crash that will in turn
crash Ember.
This patch addresses the issue by using the optional chaining operator
making the `I18n.messageFormat` method return a "Missing Key" message.
MF strings won’t be rendered properly, but the site will stay usable.
The current pluralization rules used by the I18n system in Ruby are
obsolete and don’t follow the official rules available at
unicode.org/cldr/charts/45/supplemental/language_plural_rules.html.
Using https://github.com/ruby-i18n/ruby-cldr, new and updated ones have
been generated.
We have some MF strings that are outputting HTML tags (typically links)
and their attributes are using single quotes. The problem is that with
the current implementation of MessageFormat, single quotes act as an
escaping mechanism for special characters like `{`. This then prevents
from interpolating some variables in the strings.
This patch addresses that issue by using double quotes instead,
restoring the expected behavior.
* FIX: Ensure JsLocaleHelper to obly outputs up-to-date translations
The old implementation forgot to filter out deprecated
translations, causing these translations to incorrectly override the new
locale in the frontend.
This commit fills in the forgotten where clause, filtering only the
up-to-date part.

By default, the swc minifier seems to unwrap 'unneeded' IIFE. That means it was undoing the 'bugfix' transformation we have for class fields in Safari 15. Disabling the 'inline' and 'reduce_funcs' options seems to stop this behavior.
This patch fixes the `i18n:check` rake task which has been broken by
the `MessageFormat` upgrade.
It also adds a spec to ensure we generate valid MF code for all our
available locales.
The message grace edit window (10 seconds) was too short after freezing time, possibly causing the test to fail occasionally if the record is not updated within 5 seconds.
Currently, when adding translation overrides, values aren’t validated
for MF strings. This results in being able to add invalid plural keys or
even strings containing invalid syntax.
This patch addresses this issue by compiling the string when saving an
override if the key is detected as an MF one.
If there’s an error from the compiler, it’s added to the model errors,
which in turn is displayed to the user in the admin UI, helping them to
understand what went wrong.
When we show user tips, we immediately send an AJAX request to mark the
tiup as seen. This is done in the background. However, when system tests
are run, sometimes that request is not completed before the test ends.
This causes the test to be flakey.
One way to fix this is to force the system test run to wait for the AJAX
request to complete. However, this is not ideal because it makes the
test suite slower on each run.
Instead, this commit removes the flakey assertion and adds an alternative
assertion in the frontend tests that ensures the background request is
sent when the user tip is shown.
Form Kit is our new form library/framework for unifying the way forms look across Discourse. The admin config area for the /about page is a new form that isn't currently used, so it makes sense for it to be one of the first forms to be migrated to Form Kit to test the library.
