Currently, when the target is not available we're returning the error message "`You are not permitted to view the requested resource`" which is not clear.
The user may have changed their category or tag tracking settings since a topic was tracked/watched based on those settings in the past. In that case we need to alter the reason message we show them otherwise it is very confusing for the end user to be told they are tracking a topic because of a category, when they are no longer tracking that category.
For example: "You will see a count of new replies because you are tracking this category." becomes: "You will see a count of new replies because you were tracking this category in the past."
To do this, it was necessary to add tag and category tracking info to current user serializer. I improved the serializer code so it only does 3 SQL queries instead of 9 to get the tracking information for tags and categories for the current user.
* FEATURE: add support for like webhooks
Add support for like webhooks. Webhook events only send on user membership
in the defined webhook group filters.
This also fixes group webhook events, as before this was never used, and
the logic was not correct.
This commit makes a few changes to improve boot time in development environments. It will have no effect on production boot times.
- Skip the SchemaCache warmup. In development mode, the SchemaCache is refreshed every time there is a code change, so warmup is of limited use.
- Skip warming up PrettyText. This adds ~2s to each web worker's boot time. The vast majority of requests do not use PrettyText, so it is more efficient to defer its warmup until it's needed
- Skip the intentional 1 second pause during Unicorn worker forking. The comment (which also exists in Unicorn's documentation) suggests this works around a Unix signal handling bug, but I haven't been able to locate any more information. Skipping it in dev will significantly speed up boot. If we start to see issues, we can revert this change.
On my machine, this improves `/bin/unicorn` boot time from >10s to ~4s
In development we regularly restart/reload Rails, which wipes out the schema cache. This then has to be regenerated using DDL queries on the database.
Instead, we can make use of the `rake db:schema:cache:dump` command. This will dump the schema cache to a YAML file, and then load it when needed. This is significantly faster than rebuilding the cache from DDL queries every time.
On every request, Rails checks to see whether any ruby code has been changed on the filesystem. The default FileUpdateChecker does this by iterating over every file on the autoload_paths and comparing its modified-time.
In Discourse, our autoload path of `/app` includes the `/app/assets` directory, and therefore thousands of non-ruby files (e.g. node_modules). This makes the `Dir["/app"]` call very slow (>100ms in my case). On my machine, every Rails-handled request spends around 150-200ms in the FileUpdateChecker. This commit introduces a couple of changes to completely eliminate this wasted time:
- The `/app/assets` directory is excluded from the file watchers. For me, this cut the time spent in the file_watcher to around 50-100ms
- Switches our development config to use the `EventedFileUpdateChecker`, which makes use of the `listen` gem to subscribe to os-specific notifications of changes. This completely removes the `FileUpdateChecker` from the critical path
On my machine, topic_list requests now return in around 80ms (previously >200ms). Live code reload still works as it did before
This commit allows site admins to run theme tests in production via a new `/theme-qunit` route. When you visit `/theme-qunit`, you'll see a list of the themes/components installed on your site that have tests, and from there you can select a theme or component that you run its tests.
We also have a new rake task `themes:install_and_test` that can be used to install a list of themes/components on a temporary database and run the tests of the themes/components that are installed. This rake task can be useful when upgrading/deploying a Discourse instance to make sure that the installed themes/components are compatible with the new Discourse version being deployed, and if the tests fail you can abort the build/deploy process so you don't end up with a broken site.
This setting allows admin to de/activate automatic trimming of incoming email.
There are instances where it does wonders in trimming all the garbage content and other
instances where it's so bad that it trims the most important part of the email.
FIX: don't remove hidden content using the style attribute when converting HTML to Markdown.
The regexp used was doing more harm than good. It was way too broad.
FIX: properly elide signatures from emails sent with Front App.
This is fairly safe as Front App nicely identifies signatures in the HTML part.
If the "use_site_small_logo_as_system_avatar" setting is enabled, the site's small logo is displayed as the selected option by the avatar-selector. Choosing a different avatar disables the setting.
When the admin creates a new custom field they can specify if that field should be searchable or not.
That setting is taken into consideration for quick search results.
Adds a webhook to notify when a reviewable score is updated.
This is different from created or status changed as additional flags can
roll in and update the score without updating status. Useful for applications
looking to integrate in with Discourse's scores

This filter hides reviewables with a score lower than the "reviewable_low_priority_threshold" setting. We only use reviewables that already met this threshold to calculate the Medium and High priority filters.
The old share modal used to host both share and invite functionality,
under two tabs. The new "Share Topic" modal can be used only for
sharing, but has a link to the invite modal.
Among the sharing methods, there is also "Notify" which points out
that existing users will simply be notified (this was not clear
before). Staff members can notify as many users as they want, but
regular users are restricted to one at a time, no more than
max_topic_invitations_per_day. The user will not receive another
notification if they have been notified of the same topic in past hour.
The "Create Invite" modal also suffered some changes: the two radio
boxes for selecting the type (invite or email) have been replaced by a
single checkbox (is email?) and then the two labels about emails have
been replaced by a single one, some fields were reordered and the
advanced options toggle was moved to the bottom right of the modal.
Not all videos can be rendered everywhere because some browser may be
missing some codecs. This commit adds a notice on top of video to let
the user know about it.
The "last custom date and time" shortcut for the topic timer and
bookmarks could get into a state where it had an Invalid Date if
the user opened the topic timer modal, clicked Custom Date and then
closed the modal without making changes. This has been fixed, the
last custom date + time will no longer be set in this case and if
somehow the last custom date + time is invalid that option will not
show.
Also improve the wording from just "Last" to "Last custom datetime"
It's important that we don't perform pg_dumps against databases
running behind pgbouncer.
We had an old monkey-patch to prevent this, but following some [recent
internal rails refactoring](5488686851),
the patch no longer works. Instead, we can use the official
`config.active_record.dump_schema_after_migration` option.
Setting this to false in production is recommended by Rails, and is the
default for newly generated Rails applications.
Previously watched words ignored topic titles when applying auto tagging rules.
Also copy has been improved to reflect how the system behaves.
The text hints that we are only watching first post now
* FEATURE: Review every post using the review queue.
If the `review_every_post` setting is enabled, posts created and edited by regular uses are sent to the review queue so staff can review them. We'll skip PMs and posts created or edited by TL4 or staff users.
Staff can choose to:
- Approve the post (nothing happens)
- Approve and restore the post (if deleted)
- Approve and unhide the post (if hidden)
- Reject and delete it
- Reject and keep deleted (if deleted)
- Reject and suspend the user
- Reject and silence the user

There is a category setting that enforces 1 or more tags must be added to a topic from a specific tag group before creating it. This validation was not being run before the topic was being sent to a review queue for categories that have that setting enabled.
There was an existing validation in `TopicCreator` but it was not correct; it was only validating when the tags did _not_ exist and also only happened on `create`. I now run the validation in `TopicCreator.valid?`
I also improved the error message shown to the user when they have not added the tags required (showing the tag names from the tag group), and changed the composer tag selector to not show "optional" if there are N tags required from a certain group.
The server used to respond with a generic 'error, contact admin' message
which did not offer any hint what the error was. This happened even when
the error could be easily corrected by the user (for example, if they
chose a very common password).
