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
This commit fixes a bug in theme settings migrations where values of `objects` typed theme settings aren't passed to migrations even when there are overriding values for those settings. What causes this bug is that, when creating the hash that contains all the overridden settings and will be passed to migrations, the values of `objects` typed settings are incorrectly retrieved from the `value` column (which is always nil for `objects` type) instead of `json_value`. `objects` settings are different from all other types in that they store their values in the `json_value` column and they need to be special-cased when retrieving their values.
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 commit fixes a bug in the `themes:update` rake task which resulted
in the ActiveRecord transaction not being rolled back when an error was
encountered. The transaction was first introduced in
7f0682f4f2 which changed a `begin..rescue`
block to `transaction do..rescue`. The problem with that change
prevented the transaction from ever rolling back as the code block
looks something like this:
```
transaction do
begin
update_theme
rescue => e
# surpress error
end
end
```
From the transaction's point of view now, it will never rollback even if
an error was encountered when updating the remote theme because it will
never see the error.
Instead we should have done something like this if we wanted to surpress
the errors encountered while still ensuring that the transaction is
rolled back.
```
begin
transaction do
update_theme
end
rescue => e
# surpress error
end
```
This is essential for us to determine which site is encountering an
error while updating remote themes. We are also including the theme's id
because themes can have the same name.
This service-worker caching functionality was disabled by default in 1c58395bca, and the setting to re-enable was marked as experimental. Now we are dropping all the related logic.
- Run the CSP-nonce-related middlewares on the generated response
- Fix the readonly mode checking to avoid empty strings being passed (the `check_readonly_mode` before_action will not execute in the case of these re-dispatched exceptions)
- Move the BlockRequestsMiddleware cookie-setting to the middleware, so that it is included even for unusual HTML responses like these exceptions
LinkedIn has grandfathered its old OAuth2 provider. This can only be used by existing apps. New apps have to use the new OIDC provider.
This PR adds a linkedin_oidc provider to core. This will exist alongside the discourse-linkedin-auth plugin, which will be kept for those still using the deprecated provider.
For e-mails, secure uploads redacts all secure images, and later uses the access control post to re-attached allowed ones. We pass the ID of this post through the X-Discourse-Post-Id header. As the name suggests, this assumes there's only ever one access control post. This is not true for activity summary e-mails, as they summarize across posts.
This adds a new header, X-Discourse-Post-Ids, which is used the same way as the old header, but also works for the case where an e-mail is associated with multiple posts.
Automatically add `moderators` and `admins` auto groups to specific site settings.

This SQL tries to insert as much data as possible into the `user_stats` table by either calculating or by approximating stats based on existing. It also fixes an error in the calculation of `reply_count`which mistakenly contained all posts, not just replies.
This change also disables some steps in the `import:ensure_consistency` rake task by setting the `SKIP_USER_STATS` env variable. Otherwise, the rake task will overwrite the calculated data in the `user_stats` table with inaccurate data. I'm not changing or removing the logic from the rake task yet because other bulk import scripts seem to depend on it.
This modifier allows plugins to alter the outcome of
`should_secure_uploads?` on a Post record, for cases when
plugins need post-attached uploads to always be secure (or
not secure) in specific scenarios.
This commit changes enum typed theme objects property to be optional.
Previously, an enum typed property is always required but we have found
that this might not be ideal so we want to change it.
This method name is a bit confusing; with_secure_uploads implies
it may return a block or something with the uploads of the post,
and has_secure_uploads implies that it's checking whether the post
is linked to any secure uploads.
should_secure_uploads? communicates the true intent of this method --
which is to say whether uploads attached to this post should be
secure or not.
This commit changes `DiscourseIpInfo.mmdb_download` to use `File.join`
instead of `URI.join` when `GlobalSetting.maxmind_mirror_url` has been
configured. This is necessary because `URI.join` does not work the way I
expect it to work when I implemented it previously.
`URI.join("http://www.example.com/mirror", "test.tar.gz") results in
`http://www.example.com/test.tar.gz` instead of our expected
`http://www.exmaple.com/mirror/test.tar.gz`. For our simple use case
here, `File.join` is sufficient.
We will be collecting the logo URL and the site's default locale values along with existing basic details to display the site on the Discourse Discover listing page. It will be included only if the site is opted-in by enabling the "`include_in_discourse_discover`" site setting.
Also, we no longer going to use `about.json` and `site/statistics.json` endpoints retrieve these data. We will be using only the `site/basic-info.json` endpoint.
Doesn't actually seem to be used by any of our formatters, but let's send the proper data anyway for future-proofing. Followup to ff6cb1bc05 and 8098876bfa
When a user is manually deactivated, they should not be deleted by our background job that purges inactive users.
In addition, site settings keywords should accept an array of keywords.
In this PR, all references in the UI to the word "`upgrade`" are changed to "`update`". This is to differentiate the update process in self-hosted sites from the plan "upgrade" process in hosted sites.

Why this change?
This allows downloading the MaxMind databases from a mirror in cases
where downloading directly from MaxMind's API endpoint is problematic
due to API limits.
Why this change?
We currently support `GlobalSetting.refresh_maxmind_db_during_precompile_days` which
should cache the maxmind databases on disk for the configured number of
days before it downloads the databases from maxmind again via the API.
This was previously added to help us avoid hitting the API rate limit from maxmind.
However, there was a bug in the `copy_maxmind` when we copied the latest
downloaded database to the cache directory. In particular, `FileUtils.cp` was called with
`preserve: true` which would preserve the modified time of the file
being copied. This is problematic because download the database from
maxmind on 2 April 2024 can give us a file with an mtime of 29 March
2024. If `GlobalSetting.refresh_maxmind_db_during_precompile_days` is
set to `2` for example, the cache will never be used since we will
think that the file has been downloaded for more than 2 days in our
checks.
What is the fix here?
While we want to preserve the owner and group of the file, we do not
want to preserve the modified time and hence we will call
`FileUtils.touch` when copying the file.
Why this change?
For a schema like this:
```
schema = {
name: "section",
properties: {
category_property: {
type: "categories",
required: true,
},
},
}
```
When the value of the property is set to an empty array, we are not
raising an error which we should because the property is marked as
required.
Why this change?
This is a follow-up to 86b2e3a.
Basically, we want to allow people to select more than 1 group as well.
What does this change do?
1. Change `type: group` to `type: groups` and support `min` and `max`
validations for `type: groups`.
2. Fix the `<SchemaThemeSetting::Types::Groups>` component to support the
`min` and `max` validations and switch it to use the `<GroupChooser>` component
instead of the `<ComboBoxComponent>` component which previously only supported
selecting a single group.
Previously the problem check registry simply looked at the subclasses of ProblemCheck. This was causing some confusion in environments where eager loading is not enabled, as the registry would appear empty as a result of the classes never being referenced (and thus never loaded.)
This PR changes the approach to a more explicit one. I followed other implementations (bookmarkable and hashtag autocomplete.) As a bonus, this now has a neat plugin entry point as well.
When a topic fails to be created due to the user not having permission to add tags to the topic, the error message that you get is `There was an error tagging the topic` which is very generic and doesn't explain where/what the problem is. This commit adds a clearer error message for this scenario.
The `TopicCreator` class has a `skip_validations` option that can force-create a topic without performing permission checks or validation rules. However, at the moment it doesn't skip validations that are related to tags, so topics that are created by the system or by some scrip can still fail if they use tags. This commit makes the `TopicCreator` class skip all tags-related checks if the `skip_validations` is specified.

rather than making developers provide the plugin path
name (which may not always be the same depending on
dir names and git cloning etc) we can infer the plugin
dir from the caller in plugin_file_from_fixtures
Why this change?
This is a follow-up to 86b2e3aa3e.
Basically, we want to allow people to select more than 1 category as well.
What does this change do?
1. Change `type: category` to `type: categories` and support `min` and `max`
validations for `type: categories`.
2. Fix the `<SchemaThemeSetting::Types::Categories>` component to support the
`min` and `max` validations and switch it to use the `<CategorySelector>` component
instead of the `<CategoryChooser>` component which only supports selecting one category.
At the moment, all topic `?page=` views are served with exactly identical page titles. If you search for something which is mentioned many times in the same Discourse topic, this makes for some very hard-to-understand search results! All the result titles are exactly the same, with no indication of why there are multiple results showing.
This commit adds a `- Page #` suffix to the titles in this situation. This lines up with our existing strategy for topic-list pagination.
When crawlers visit a post-specific URL like `/t/-/{topic-id}/{post-number}`, we use the canonical to direct them to the appropriate crawler-optimised paginated view (e.g. `?page=3`).
However, analysis of google results shows that the post-specific URLs are still being included in the index. Google doesn't tell us exactly why this is happening. However, as a general rule, 'A large portion of the duplicate page's content should be present on the canonical version'.
In our previous implementation, this wasn't 100% true all the time. That's because a request for a post-specific URL would include posts 'surrounding' that post, and won't exactly conform to the page boundaries which are used in the canonical version of the page. Essentially: in some cases, the content of the post-specific pages would include many posts which were not present on the canonical paginated version.
This commit aims to resolve that problem by simplifying the implementation. Instead of rendering posts surrounding the target post_number, we will only render the target post, and include a link to 'show post in topic'. With this new implementation, 100% of the post-specific page content will be present on the canonical paginated version, which will hopefully mean google reduces their indexing of the non-canonical post-specific pages.
