### Why?
Before, all flags were static. Therefore, they were stored in class variables and serialized by SiteSerializer. Recently, we added an option for admins to add their own flags or disable existing flags. Therefore, the class variable had to be dropped because it was unsafe for a multisite environment. However, it started causing performance problems.
### Solution
When a new Flag system is used, instead of using PostActionType, we can serialize Flags and use fragment cache for performance reasons.
At the same time, we are still supporting deprecated `replace_flags` API call. When it is used, we fall back to the old solution and the admin cannot add custom flags. In a couple of months, we will be able to drop that API function and clean that code properly. However, because it may still be used, redis cache was introduced to improve performance.
To test backward compatibility you can add this code to any plugin
```ruby
replace_flags do |flag_settings|
flag_settings.add(
4,
:inappropriate,
topic_type: true,
notify_type: true,
auto_action_type: true,
)
flag_settings.add(1001, :trolling, topic_type: true, notify_type: true, auto_action_type: true)
end
```

Currently to handle stub topics after merging, there are only options to (1) never delete a stub topic and (2) delete a stub topic after X amount of days. This adds the option to immediately delete a stub topic upon merge.

Following a recent refactor, some methods from `FlagSettings` have been
renamed (`custom_types` -> `additional_message_types`). The
`PostActionType` model was using `custom_types` but when the renaming
was done, it was renamed to `with_additional_message` instead of
`additional_message_types`, which under the right circumstances will
raise an error.
When creating a shared draft, we're recording topic view stats on the draft and then pass those on when the draft is published, conflating the actual view count.
This fixes that by not registering topic views if the topic is a shared draft.
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.
* FIX: Add post id to the anchor to prevent two identical anchors
We generate anchors for headings in posts. This works fine if there is
only one post in a topic with anchors. The problem comes when you have
two or more posts with the same heading. PrettyText generates anchors
based on the heading text using the raw context of each post, so it is
entirely possible to generate the same anchor for two posts in the same
topic, especially for topics with template replies
Post1:
# heading
context
Post2:
# heading
context
When both posts are on the page at the same time, the anchor will only
work for the first post, according to the [HTML specification](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/browsing-the-web.html#scroll-to-the-fragment-identifier).
> If there is an a element in the document tree whose root is document
> that has a name attribute whose value is equal to fragment, then
> return the *first* such element in tree order.
This bug is particularly serious in forums with non-Latin languages,
such as Chinese. We do not generate slugs for Chinese, which results in
the heading anchors being completely dependent on their order.
```ruby
[2] pry(main)> PrettyText.cook("# 中文")
=> "<h1><a name=\"h-1\" class=\"anchor\" href=\"#h-1\"></a>中文</h1>"
```
Therefore, the anchors in the two posts must be in exactly the same by
order, causing almost all of the anchors in the second post to be
invalid.
This commit solves this problem by adding the `post_id` to the anchor.
The new anchor generation method will add `p-{post_id}` as a prefix when
post_id is available:
```ruby
[3] pry(main)> PrettyText.cook("# 中文", post_id: 1234)
=> "<h1><a name=\"p-1234-h-1\" class=\"anchor\" href=\"#p-1234-h-1\"></a>中文</h1>"
```
This way we can ensure that each anchor name only appears once on the
same topic. Using post id also prevents the potential possibility of the
same anchor name when splitting/merging topics.
Our old group SMTP SSL option was a checkbox,
but this was not ideal because there are actually
3 different ways SSL can be used when sending
SMTP:
* None
* SSL/TLS
* STARTTLS
We got around this before with specific overrides
for Gmail, but it's not flexible enough and now people
want to use other providers. It's best to be clear,
though it is a technical detail. We provide a way
to test the SMTP settings before saving them so there
should be little chance of messing this up.
This commit also converts GroupEmailSettings to a glimmer
component.
Allow admin to create custom flag which requires an additional message.
I decided to rename the old `custom_flag` into `require_message` as it is more descriptive.
The watch words controller creation function, create_or_update_word(), doesn’t validate the size of the replacement parameter, unlike the word parameter, when creating a replace watched word. So anyone with moderator privileges can create watched words with almost unlimited characters.

This patch upgrades the MessageFormat library to version 3.3.0 from
0.1.5.
Our `I18n.messageFormat` method signature is unchanged, and now uses the
new API under the hood.
We don’t need dedicated locale files for handling pluralization rules
anymore as everything is now included by the library itself.
The compilation of the messages now happens through our
`messageformat-wrapper` gem. It then outputs an ES module that includes
all its needed dependencies.
Most of the changes happen in `JsLocaleHelper` and in the `ExtraLocales`
controller.
A new method called `.output_MF` has been introduced in
`JsLocaleHelper`. It handles all the fetching, compiling and
transpiling to generate the proper MF messages in JS. Overrides and
fallbacks are also handled directly in this method.
The other main change is that now the MF translations are served through
the `ExtraLocales` controller instead of being statically compiled in a
JS file, then having to patch the messages using overrides and
fallbacks. Now the MF translations are just another bundle that is
created on the fly and cached by the client.
Drafts used to be deleted instead of being destroyed. The callbacks that
clean up the upload references were not being called. As a result, the
upload references were not cleaned up and uploads were not deleted
either. This has been partially fixed in 9655bf3e.
This change eliminates a couple of instances where subfolder urls are badly formatted, in most cases we can use Discourse.base_url_no_prefix to prevent adding the subfolder to the base url.
Adds a report to show the top 100 most viewed topics in a date range,
combining logged in and anonymous views. Can be filtered by category.
This is a followup to 527f02e99f
and d1191b7f5f. We are also going to
be able to see this data in a new topic map, but this admin report
helps to see an overview across the forum for a date range.
This is a follow up to 005f623c42 where
we want to truncate the user agent string instead of nulling out the
column when the user agent string is too low. By truncating, we still
get to retain information that can still be useful.
Add a new column - `user_agent` - to the `SearchLog` table.
This column can be null as we are only allowing a the user-agent string to have a max length of 2000 characters. In the case the user-agent string surpasses the max characters allowed, we simply nullify the value, and save/write the log as normal.
When tag preference in group and site settings are both used with same default notification level it will break new users signups because it tries to create duplicate records in the tag_users table which can’t happen because we have a unique index set.
If an existing user (John) accepts an invite created by Kenny to a group, John may be seen as invited by Kenny, despite already having an account on the site.
This fix removes the bug by excluding invites that determine the invited_by after the user's creation date. The delay buffer in the query accounts for invites that also create the user at the same time.
Badges can have their associated image uploads deleted. When this happens, any user who has that badge will have their profile page error out.
After this fix, when deleting an upload that's associated with a badge, we nullify the foreign key ID on the badge. This makes the existing safeguard work correctly.
Followup 2f2da72747
When the "Consolidated Pageviews with Browser Detection (Experimental)"
report was introduced, we started counting the original
"page_view_logged_in" and "page_view_anon" ApplicationRequest
data as "Other Pageviews", subtracting
"page_view_anon_browser" and "page_view_logged_in_browser" from
this number.
However we unknowingly automatically started counting these
browser-based page views, which are a subset of the total
"page_view_logged_in" and "page_view_anon" counts, in the
original "Pageviews" report, leading to double counting
which meant that when you looked at the data for each
report side-by-side the data didn't add up.
This commit fixes the issue by not counting the "browser"
pageviews in the Pageviews report, and making the code where
we were only counting certain types of requests for this
report more plain, explicitly stating which types of requests
we want.
When a topic embed is run with either no tags argument or a nil tag argument
this should not affect any existing tags.
Only update topic tags when tags argument is explicitly empty.
* FIX: Division by zero error on WebHookEventsDailyAggregate
* DEV: Update implementation of WebHookEventsDailyAggregate to handle division by zero error
We want to allow admins to make new required fields apply to existing users. In order for this to work we need to have a way to make those users fill up the fields on their next page load. This is very similar to how adding a 2FA requirement post-fact works. Users will be redirected to a page where they can fill up the remaining required fields, and until they do that they won't be able to do anything else.
* DEV: Upgrade Rails to 7.1
* FIX: Remove references to `Rails.logger.chained`
`Rails.logger.chained` was provided by Logster before Rails 7.1
introduced their broadcast logger. Now all the loggers are added to
`Rails.logger.broadcasts`.
Some code in our initializers was still using `chained` instead of
`broadcasts`.

For Topic Embeds, we would prefer <article> to be the main article in a topic, rather than a table cell <td> with potentially a lot of data. However, in an example URL like here, the table cell (the very large code snippet) is seen as the Topic Embed's article due to the determined content weight by the Readability library we use.
In the newly released 0.7.1 cantino/ruby-readability#94, the library has a new option to exclude the library's default <td> element into content weighting. This is more in line with the original library where they only weighted <p>. So this PR excludes the td, as seen in the tests, to allow the actual article to be seen as the article. This PR also adds the details tag into the allow-list.
