Why was the problem?
ActiveRecord's query cache for the connection pool wasn't disabled after the
`with a fake provider runs 'other_phase' for enabled auth methods` test
in `omniauth_callbacks_controller_spec.rb` was run. This was because the
Rack response body in `FakeAuthenticator::Strategy::other_phase` did not
adhere to the expected Rack body format which is "typically an Array of
String instances". Because this expectation was broken, it cascaded the
problem down where it resulted in the ActiveRecord's query cache for the
connection pool not being disabled as it normally should when the
response body is closed.
When the query cache is left enabled, common assertions pattern in RSpec
like `expect { something }.to change { Group.count }` will fail since
the query cache is enabled and the call first call to `Group.count` will
cache the result to be reused later on.
To see the bug in action, one can run the following command:
`bundle exec rspec --seed 44747
spec/requests/omniauth_callbacks_controller_spec.rb:1150
spec/models/group_spec.rb:283`

* Automatically remove the prefix `Discourse ` from all the plugin titles to avoid repetition
* Remove the :discourse_dev: icon from the author. Consider a "By Discourse" with no labels as official
* We add a `label` metadata to plugin.rb
* Only plugins made by us in `discourse` and `discourse-org` GitHub organizations will show these in the list
* Make the plugin author font size a little smaller
* Make the commit sha look like a link so it's more obvious it goes to the code
Also I added some validation and truncation for plugin metadata
parsing since currently you can put absolutely anything in there
and it will show on the plugin list.
The category drop was rerendered after every category async change
because it updated the categories list. This is not necessary and
categories can be referenced indirectly by ID instead.
This change refactors the check `user.groups.any?` and instead uses
`user.staged?` to check if the user is staged or not.
Also fixes several tests to ensure the users have their auto trust level
groups created.

Why this change?
Asserting against records of the database in system tests can be flaky
because those assertions can run against the database before the server
has actually saved the necessary changes to the database.
What does this change do?
While the assertion is not ideal, we are working around this as a
temporary fix by using `try_until_success` which will retry the
assertion up till the default capybara timeout.
This value is included when generating static asset URLs. Updating the value will allow site operators to invalidate all asset urls to recover from configuration issues which may have been cached by CDNs/browsers.
When sending SMTP for group SMTP functionality, we
are running into timeouts for both read and open
when sending mail occassionally, which can cause issues
like the email only being sent to _some_ of the recipients
or to fail altogether.
The defaults of 5s are too low, so bumping them up to
the defaults of the `net-smtp` gem.
When we check upload security, one of the checks is to
run `access_control_post.with_secure_uploads?`. The problem
here is that the `topic` for the post could be deleted,
which would make the check return `nil` sometimes instead
of false because of safe navigation. We just need to be
more explicit.
Admin can add tag description up to 1000 characters.
Full description is displayed on tag page, however on topic list it is truncated to 80 characters.
Why this change?
In the `invites_controller_spec.rb` file, we had several tests that were
checking for assets path in the response's body to determine which
layout has been rendered. However, those test fails if `bin/ember-cli
--build` has been run locally.
What does this change do?
Instead of checking for asset paths to determine the layout that has
been rendered, this change relies on the fact that the `no_ember` layout
has a `no-ember` class on the `body` element. This is more deterministic
as compared to relying on the different asset paths that are rendered in
the response.

We introduced video placeholders which prevent preloading
metadata for videos in posts. The structure looks like this
in HTML when the post is cooked:
```
<div class="video-placeholder-container" data-video-src="http://some-url.com/video.mp4" dir="ltr" style="cursor: pointer;">
<div class="video-placeholder-wrapper">
<div class="video-placeholder-overlay">
<svg class="fa d-icon d-icon-play svg-icon svg-string" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<use href="#play"></use>
</svg>
</div>
</div>
</div>
```
However, we did not update the code that links post uploads
to the post via UploadReference, so any videos uploaded since
this change are essentially dangling and liable to be deleted.
This also causes some uploads to be marked secure when they
shouldn't be, because they are not picked up and analysed in the
CookedPostProcessor flow.
Followup to e37fb3042d,

- DEV: maxmind license checking failing tests #24534
- UX: Show if MaxMind key is missing on IP lookup #18993
These changes are leading to surprising results, our logs are now filling up with warnings on dev environments
We need the change to be redone
This improves the implementation of #18993
1. Error message displayed to user is clearer
2. open_db will also be called, even if license key is blank, as it was previously
3. This in turn means no need to keep stubbing 'maxmind_license_key'
The parent category needs to be serialized before the child category
because they are parsed in order. Otherwise the client will not build
the parent-child relationship correctly.

Some plugins like discourse-ai and discourse-saml do not
nicely change from kebab-case to Title Case (e.g. Ai, Saml),
and anyway this method of getting the plugin name is not
translated either.
Better to use the plugin setting category if it exists,
since that is written by a human and is translated.

This commit extracts the storage part of the route-scroll-manager into a dedicated service. This provides a key/value store which will reset for each navigation, and restore previous values when the user uses the back/forward buttons in their browser.
This gives us a reliable replacement for the old `DiscourseRoute.isPoppedState` function, which would not work under all situations.
Previously reverted in e6370decfd. This version has been significantly refactored, and includes an additional system spec for the issue we identified.

Why this change?
The test was randomly failing in
https://github.com/discourse/discourse/actions/runs/6936264158/job/18868087113
with the following failure:
```
expect do user.update_ip_address!("127.0.0.1") end.to change {
UserIpAddressHistory.where(user_id: user.id).count
}.by(1)
expected `UserIpAddressHistory.where(user_id: user.id).count` to have changed by 1, but was changed by 0
```
This is due to the fact that ActiveRecord will actually cache the result
of `UserIpAddressHistory.where(user_id: user.id).count`. However,
`User.update_ip_address!` relies on mini_sql and does not go through
ActiveRecord. As a result, the query cache is not cleared and hence the
flakiness.
What does this change do?
This change uses the `uncached` method provided by ActiveRecord when
we are fetching the count.

In the long term we should aim to modernize these places, but for now this change will make them compatible with Ember 5.x (while maintaining compatibility with Ember 3.28)
This commit adds a new `search_default_sort_order` site setting,
set to "relevance" by default, that controls the default sort order
for the full page /search route.
If the user changes the order in the dropdown on that page, we remember
their preference automatically, and it takes precedence over the site
setting as a default from then on. This way people who prefer e.g.
Latest Post as their default can make it so.
Currently to use a limit in the notifications index, you have to also pass recent: true as a param.
This PR:
Adds optional limit param to be used in the notifications query, regardless of the presence of recent
Raises the max limit of the response with recent present from 50 -> 60. It is super weird we have a hard-limit of 50 before with recent param, and 60 without the param.
config.after(:suite) which stops minio server is called every time one
of the groups of parallel tests complete. This works fine most of the
time with parallel spec runs, but sometimes one of these
MinioRunner.stop calls happens while a spec is running in another
process that expects the minio server to be running.
Skipping these tests to avoid flakys for now.
Why this change?
The test became flaky due to d208396c5c.
In that commit, we introduced `page.has_no_css?("div.menu-panel.animating")` to `PageObjects::Components::NavigationMenu::Sidebar#open_on_mobile` but
it did not work as intended because `page.has_no_css?("div.menu-panel.animating")` can return `true` immediately as the `animating` class has not been added
to the element.
What does this change do?
Switch to the `wait_for_animation` system helper to ensure that all
animations have ended on the element.
When we started using NumberField for integer site settings
in e113eff663, we did not end up
passing down a min/max value for the integer to the field, which
meant that for some fields where negative numbers were allowed

This commit passes down the min/max options from the server for
integer settings then in turn passes them down to NumberField.

Previously we would only recompile a theme locale when its own data changes. However, the output also includes fallback data from other locales, so we need to invalidate all locales when fallback locale data is changed. Building a list of dependent locales is tricky, so let's just invalidate them all.
We ask users to confirm their session if they are making a sensitive
action, such as adding/updating second factors or passkeys. This
commit adds the ability to confirm sessions with passkeys as an option
to the password confirmation.
The `src` of js files is now dependent on the ember-cli/webpack build, so it's not a good thing to check in specs. In CI it passes because the ember-cli build is not run. But locally it would fail if you had a build in `app/assets/javascripts/discourse/dist`.
This commit updates the specs to check for the presence of a stable data attribute instead.
- Remove vendored copy
- Update Rails implementation to look for language definitions in node_modules
- Use webpack-based dynamic import for hljs core
- Use browser-native dynamic import for site-specific language bundle (and fallback to webpack-based dynamic import in tests)
- Simplify markdown implementation to allow all languages into the `lang-{blah}` className
- Now that all languages are passed through, resolve aliases at runtime to avoid the need for the pre-built `highlightjs-aliases` index
Previously, the app HTML served by the Ember-CLI proxy was generated based on a 'bootstrap json' payload generated by Rails. This inevitably leads to differences between the Rails HTML and the Ember-CLI HTML.
This commit overhauls our proxying strategy. Now, we totally ignore the ember-cli `index.html` file. Instead, we take the full HTML from Rails and surgically replace script URLs based on a `data-discourse-entrypoint` attribute. This should be faster (only one request to Rails), more robust, and less confusing for developers.
The most common thing that we do with fab! is:
fab!(:thing) { Fabricate(:thing) }
This commit adds a shorthand for this which is just simply:
fab!(:thing)
i.e. If you omit the block, then, by default, you'll get a `Fabricate`d object using the fabricator of the same name.
This adds the ability to collect stats without exposing them
among other stats via API.
The most important thing I wanted to achieve is to provide
an API where stats are not exposed by default, and a developer
has to explicitly specify that they should be
exposed (`expose_via_api: true`). Implementing an opposite
solution would be simpler, but that's less safe in terms of
potential security issues.
When working on this, I had to refactor the current solution.
I would go even further with the refactoring, but the next steps
seem to be going too far in changing the solution we have,
and that would also take more time. Two things that can be
improved in the future:
1. Data structures for holding stats can be further improved
2. Core stats are hard-coded in the About template (it's hard
to fix it without correcting data structures first, see point 1):
63a0700d45/app/views/about/index.html.erb (L61-L101)
The most significant refactorings are:
1. Introducing the `Stat` model
2. Aligning the way the core and the plugin stats' are registered
There was a registry for preloaded site categories and a new one has
been introduced recently for categories serialized through a
CategoryList.
Having two registries created a lot of friction for developers and this
commit merges them into a single one, providing a unified API.
There is an edge case where the following occurs:
1. The user sets a bookmark reminder on a post/topic
2. The post/topic is changed to a PM before or after the reminder
fires, and the notification remains unread by the user
3. The user opens their bookmark reminder notification list
and they can still see the notification even though they cannot
access the topic anymore
There is a very low chance for information leaking here, since
the only thing that could be exposed is the topic title if it
changes to something sensitive.
This commit filters the bookmark unread notifications by using
the bookmarkable can_see? methods and also prevents sending
reminder notifications for bookmarks the user can no longer see.
When quoting a chat message in a post, if that message contains a mention,
that mention should be ignored. But we've been detecting them and sending
notifications to users. This PR fixes the problem. Since this fix is for
the chat plugin, I had to introduce a new API for plugins:
# We strip posts before detecting mentions, oneboxes, attachments etc.
# We strip those elements that shouldn't be detected. For example,
# a mention inside a quote should be ignored, so we strip it off.
# Using this API plugins can register their own post strippers.
def register_post_stripper(&block)
end
This commit adds an /admin/customize/theme-components route,
that opens the theme page with the components tab pre-selected,
so people can navigate to that directly.
Switches to using a dialog to confirm a session (i.e. sudo mode for
account changes where we want to be extra sure the current user is who
they say they are) to match what we do with passkeys.
Previously, we were parsing webpack JS chunk filenames from the HTML files which ember-cli generates. This worked ok for simple entrypoints, but falls apart once we start using async imports(), which are not included in the HTML.
This commit uses the stats plugin to generate an assets.json file, and updates Rails to parse it instead of the HTML. Caching on the Rails side is also improved to avoid reading from the filesystem multiple times per request in develoment.

This commit fixes an issue where when some actions were done
(deleting/recovering post, moving posts) we updated the
topic_users.bookmarked column to the wrong value. This was happening
because the SyncTopicUserBookmarked job was not taking into account
Topic level bookmarks, so if there was a Topic bookmark and no
Post bookmarks for a user in the topic, they would have
topic_users.bookmarked set to false, which meant the bookmark would
no longer show in the /bookmarks list.
To reproduce before the fix:
* Bookmark a topic and don’t bookmark any posts within
* Delete or recover any post in the topic

This commit adds an `enable_s3_transfer_acceleration` site setting,
which is hidden to begin with. We are adding this because in certain
regions, using https://aws.amazon.com/s3/transfer-acceleration/ can
drastically speed up uploads, sometimes as much as 70% in certain
regions depending on the target bucket region. This is important for
us because we have direct S3 multipart uploads enabled everywhere
on our hosting.
To start, we only want this on the uploads bucket, not the backup one.
Also, this will accelerate both uploads **and** downloads, depending
on whether a presigned URL is used for downloading. This is the case
when secure uploads is enabled, not anywhere else at this time. To
enable the S3 acceleration on downloads more generally would be a
more in-depth change, since we currently store S3 Upload record URLs
like this:
```
url: "//test.s3.dualstack.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/original/2X/6/123456.png"
```
For acceleration, `s3.dualstack` would need to be changed to `s3-accelerate.dualstack`
here.
Note that for this to have any effect, Transfer Acceleration must be enabled
on the S3 bucket used for uploads per https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/transfer-acceleration-examples.html.
When Discourse first introduced brotli support, reverse-proxy/CDN support for passing through the accept-encoding header to our NGINX server was very poor. Therefore, a separate `/brotli_assets/...` path was introduced to serve the brotli assets. This worked well, but introduces additional complexity and inconsistencies.
Nowadays, Brotli encoding is well supported, so we don't need the separate paths any more. Requests can be routed to the asset `.js` URLs, and NGINX will serve the brotli/gzip version of the asset automatically.
For deprecated site settings, we log out a warning when
the old setting is used. However when we convert all the client
settings to JSON, we are creating a lot of log noise like this:
> Deprecation notice: `SiteSetting.anonymous_posting_min_trust_level` has been deprecated.
We don't need to do this because we are just dumping the JSON.
We updated scheduled admin checks to run concurrently in their own jobs. The main reason for this was so that we can implement re-check functionality for especially flaky checks (e.g. group e-mail credentials check.)
This works in the following way:
1. The check declares its retry policy using class methods.
2. A block can be yielded to if there are problems, but before they are committed to Redis.
3. The job uses this block to either a) schedule a retry if there are any remaining or b) do nothing and let the check commit.
When submitting files through the form template upload field, we were having an issue where, although a validation error message was being presented to the user, the upload was still coming through, because `PickFilesButton`'s validation happens **after** the Uppy mixin finished the upload and hit `uploadDone`.
This PR adds a new overridable method to the Uppy mixin and overrides it with the custom validation, which now happens before the file is sent.
Additionally, we're now also using `uploadingOrProcessing` as the source of truth to show the upload/uploading label, which seems more reliable.
This PR does some preparatory refactoring of scheduled admin checks in order for us to be able to do custom retry strategies for some of them.
Instead of running all checks in sequence inside a single, scheduled job, the scheduled job spawns one new job per check.
In order to be concurrency-safe, we need to change the existing Redis data structure from a string (of serialized JSON) to a list of strings (of serialized JSON).
This commit introduces a new feature that allows theme developers to manage the transformation of theme settings over time. Similar to Rails migrations, the theme settings migration system enables developers to write and execute migrations for theme settings, ensuring a smooth transition when changes are required in the format or structure of setting values.
Example use cases for the theme settings migration system:
1. Renaming a theme setting.
2. Changing the data type of a theme setting (e.g., transforming a string setting containing comma-separated values into a proper list setting).
3. Altering the format of data stored in a theme setting.
All of these use cases and more are now possible while preserving theme setting values for sites that have already modified their theme settings.
Usage:
1. Create a top-level directory called `migrations` in your theme/component, and then within the `migrations` directory create another directory called `settings`.
2. Inside the `migrations/settings` directory, create a JavaScript file using the format `XXXX-some-name.js`, where `XXXX` is a unique 4-digit number, and `some-name` is a descriptor of your choice that describes the migration.
3. Within the JavaScript file, define and export (as the default) a function called `migrate`. This function will receive a `Map` object and must also return a `Map` object (it's acceptable to return the same `Map` object that the function received).
4. The `Map` object received by the `migrate` function will include settings that have been overridden or changed by site administrators. Settings that have never been changed from the default will not be included.
5. The keys and values contained in the `Map` object that the `migrate` function returns will replace all the currently changed settings of the theme.
6. Migrations are executed in numerical order based on the XXXX segment in the migration filenames. For instance, `0001-some-migration.js` will be executed before `0002-another-migration.js`.
Here's a complete example migration script that renames a setting from `setting_with_old_name` to `setting_with_new_name`:
```js
// File name: 0001-rename-setting.js
export default function migrate(settings) {
if (settings.has("setting_with_old_name")) {
settings.set("setting_with_new_name", settings.get("setting_with_old_name"));
}
return settings;
}
```
Internal topic: t/109980
NOTE: Most of this is experimental and will be removed at a later
time, which is why things like translations have not been added.
The new /admin-revamp UI uses a sidebar for admin nav. This initial
step adds a script to generate a map of all the current admin nav
into a format the sidebar to read. Then, people can experiment
with different changes to this structure.
The structure can then be edited from `/admin-revamp/config/sidebar-experiment`,
and it is saved to local storage so people can visually experiment with different ways
of showing the admin sidebar links.
Two changes were introduced:
1. Reorder links on sidebar section is removed. Clicking and holding the mouse for 250ms was unintuitive;
2. Fixed bugs when reorder is done in edit modal.
Plugins can use a new modifier to change which site settings are hidden using the :hidden_site_settings modifier. For example:
```
register_modifier(:hidden_site_settings) do |hidden|
(hidden + [:invite_only, :login_required]).uniq
end
```
As part of #23816, which sought to strip out thousand separators, we also accidentally strip out signs. This is making it impossible to disable some settings which require a -1 to disable. Instead of stripping non-digits, strip anything that isn't a sign or a digit.
This commit fixes an issue where clicking the default
"Take Action" option on a flag for a post doesn't always
end up with the post hidden.
This is because the "take_action" score bonus doesn’t take into account
the final score required to hide the post.
Especially with the `hide_post_sensitivity` site setting set to `low`
sensitivity, there is a likelihood the score needed to hide the post
won’t be reached.
Now, the default "Take Action" button has been changed to "Hide Post"
to reflect what is actually happening and the description has been
improved, and if "Take Action" is clicked we _always_ hide the post
regardless of score and sensitivity settings. This way the action reflects
expectations of the user.
* FEATURE: Add keywords support for site_settings search
This change allows for a new `keywords` field that can be added to site
settings in order to help with searching. Keywords are not visible in
the UI, but site settings matching one of the contained keywords will
appear when searching for that keyword.
Keywords can be added for site settings inside of the
`config/locales/server.en.yml` file under the new `keywords` key.
```
site_settings
example_1: "fancy description"
example_2: "another description"
keywords:
example_1: "capybara"
```
* Add keywords entry for a recently changed site setting and add system specs
* Use page.visit now that we have our own visit
The User#flag_level column has not been in use for a very long time. The "new" reviewable system dynamically calculates flag scores based on past performance of the user.
This PR removes flag_level from the admin user serializer (since it isn't displayed anywhere in admin user lists) and marks the column as deprecated and targeted for removal in the next minor version.
The message: :signup_not_allowed option to the IP address validator does nothing, because the AllowedIpAddressValidator chooses one of either:
- ip_address.blocked or
- ip_address.max_new_accounts_per_registration_ip
internally. This means that the translation for this was also never used.
This PR removes the ineffectual option and the unused translation. It also moves the translated error messages for blocked and max_new_accounts_per_registration_ip into the correct location so we can pass a symbol to ActiveModel::Errors#add.
There is no actual change in behaviour.
Followup to 9762e65758. This
original commit did not take into account the fact that
new topics can end up in the approval queue as a
ReviewableQueuedPost, and so there was a 500 error raised
when accessing `self.topic` when sending a PM to the user.
This was just a case of removing the `onlyStream: true`
operation from `decorateCookedElement`, since that restricts
the decoration only to topic page posts.
This regressed in b6dc929. A test to ensure this doesn't regress has
been added as well.
This PR also fixes a flakey system spec. The conditional UI gets
triggered automatically, so the system spec shouldn't explicitly call
`find(".passkey-login-button").click`, because sometimes it isn't
present and that causes a test failure.
Plugins can use a new modifier to change which site settings are
hidden using the :hidden_site_settings modifier. For example:
register_modifier(:hidden_site_settings) do |hidden|
(hidden + [:invite_only, :login_required]).uniq
end
Calling add_to_serializer is an irreversible operation which affects all the following tests in the suite. This lead to other tests failing because they weren't expecting the extra field on the category serializer.

In the past we would build the stack of Omniauth providers at boot, which meant that plugins had to register any authenticators in the root of their plugin.rb (i.e. not in an `after_initialize` block). This could be frustrating because many features are not available that early in boot (e.g. Zeitwerk autoloading).
Now that we build the omniauth strategy stack 'just in time', it is safe for plugins to register their auth methods in an `after_initialize` block. This commit relaxes the old restrictions so that plugin authors have the option to move things around.
Previously, we would build the stack of omniauth authenticators once on boot. That meant that all strategies had to be included, even if they were disabled. We then used the `before_request_phase` to ensure disabled strategies could not be used. This works well, but it means that omniauth is often doing unnecessary work running logic in disabled strategies.
This commit refactors things so that we build the stack of strategies on each request. That means we only need to include the enabled strategies in the stack - disabled strategies are totally ignored. Building the stack on-demand like this does add some overhead to auth requests, but on the majority of sites that will be significantly outweighed by the fact we're now skipping logic for disabled authenticators.
As well as the slight performance improvement, this new approach means that:
- Broken (i.e. exception-raising) strategies cannot cause issues on a site if they're disabled
- `other_phase` of disabled strategies will never appear in the backtrace of other authentication errors
No plugins or themes rely on anonymous_posting_min_trust_level so we
can just switch straight over to anonymous_posting_allowed_groups
This also adds an AUTO_GROUPS const which can be imported in JS
tests which is analogous to the one defined in group.rb. This can be used
to set the current user's groups where JS tests call for checking these groups
against site settings.
Finally a AtLeastOneGroupValidator validator is added for group_list site
settings which ensures that at least one group is always selected, since if
you want to allow all users to use a feature in this way you can just use
the everyone group.
Using Wizard.exclude_steps applies to all sites in a multisite cluster.
In order to exclude steps for individual sites at run-time, a new
instance method `remove_step` is being added.
This fixes a similar issue to 8b3eca0 where an Errno::ETXTBSY error was raised because the minio_runner gem was trying to install the binary across multiple processes in rspec. If we just make sure the latest version is installed before the tests run, this shouldn't happen, since MinioRunner.start will not do any further attempts at installation if the latest version is installed.
Why this change?
When we're in the midst of loading more tags, the filter dropdown
is still enabled and may result in us firing off multiple requests to
the server to load more tags. This makes the loading hard to reason
about in the tests environment and has led to flaky tests.
What does this change do?
This changes disables the filter dropdown when more tags are being
loading.
Why this change?
Currently, we do not have a method to easily retrieve a theme setting's
value on the server side. Such a method can be useful in the test
environment where we need to retrieve the theme's setting and use its
value in assertions.
What does this change do?
This change introduces the `Theme#get_setting` instance method.
This change adds a new event trigger (new_post_moved) when the first post in a topic is moved to a new topic.
Plugins that listen for the new_post_moved event now have an easy way to update old data based on the post id.
There are a few PUT requests that users can do in their preferences tab that aren't going through the standard `user#update` action.
This commit adds all the "trivial" ones (aka. except the security-related one, username and email changes) so you can now change the badge title, the avatar or featured topic of a user via the API.
This commit adds a new admin UI under the route `/admin-revamp`, which is
only accessible if the user is in a group defined by the new `enable_experimental_admin_ui_groups` site setting. It
also adds a special `admin` sidebar panel that is shown instead of the `main`
forum one when the admin is in this area.
We also add an "Admin Revamp" sidebar link to the community section, which
will only appear if the user is in the setting group:
Within this there are subroutes defined like `/admin-revamp/config/:area`,
these areas could contain any UI imaginable, this is just laying down an
initial idea of the structure and how the sidebar will work. Sidebar links are
currently hardcoded.
Some other changes:
* Changed the `main` and `chat` panels sidebar panel keys to use exported const values for reuse
* Allowed custom sidebar sections to hide their headers with the `hideSectionHeader` option
* Add a `groupSettingArray` setting on `this.siteSettings` in JS, which accepts a group site setting name
and splits it by `|` then converts the items in the array to integers, similar to the `_map` magic for ruby
group site settings
* Adds a `hidden` option for sidebar panels which prevents them from showing in separated mode and prevents
the switch button from being shown

Why this change?
When the URL `/t/1234?preview_theme_id=21` is loaded, we redirect to
`/t/<topic slug>/1234` stripping the `preview_theme_id` query params.
What does this change do?
This change builds on 61248652cd and
simply adds the `preview_theme_id` query param when redirecting.
* FIX: Secure upload post processing race condition
This commit fixes a couple of issues.
A little background -- when uploads are created in the composer
for posts, regardless of whether the upload will eventually be
marked secure or not, if secure_uploads is enabled we always mark
the upload secure at first. This is so the upload is by default
protected, regardless of post type (regular or PM) or category.
This was causing issues in some rare occasions though because
of the order of operations of our post creation and processing
pipeline. When creating a post, we enqueue a sidekiq job to
post-process the post which does various things including
converting images to lightboxes. We were also enqueuing a job
to update the secure status for all uploads in that post.
Sometimes the secure status job would run before the post process
job, marking uploads as _not secure_ in the background and changing
their ACL before the post processor ran, which meant the users
would see a broken image in their posts. This commit fixes that issue
by always running the upload security changes inline _within_ the
cooked_post_processor job.
The other issue was that the lightbox wrapper link for images in
the post would end up with a URL like this:
```
href="/secure-uploads/original/2X/4/4e1f00a40b6c952198bbdacae383ba77932fc542.jpeg"
```
Since we weren't actually using the `upload.url` to pass to
`UrlHelper.cook_url` here, we weren't converting this href to the CDN
URL if the post was not in a secure context (the UrlHelper does not
know how to convert a secure-uploads URL to a CDN one). Now we
always end up with the correct lightbox href. This was less of an issue
than the other one, since the secure-uploads URL works even when the
upload has become non-secure, but it was a good inconsistency to fix
anyway.
This reverts commit 5f0bc4557f.
Through extensive internal discussion we have decided to revert
this change, as it significantly impacted moderation flow for
some Discourse site moderators, especially around "something else"
flags. We need to re-approach how flags are counted holistically,
so to that end this change is being reverted.
Site data is preloaded on the first page load, which includes categories
data. For sites with many categories, site data takes a long time to
serialize and to transfer.
In the future, preloaded category data will be completely removed.
This commit introduces a new endpoint to search categories and uses it
instead of the categories map that is preloaded using SiteSerializer.
This feature is enabled only when the hidden site setting
lazy_load_categories is enabled and should be used only on sites with
many categories.
The category style site setting is being deprecated. This commit will
show a warning on the admin dashboard if a site isn't using the default
category style (bullet).
At this moment, this feature is under a site setting named
lazy_load_categories.
In the future, categories will no longer be preloaded through site data.
This commit add information about categories in topic list and ensures
that data is used to display topic list items.
Parent categories are serialized too because they are necessary to
render {{category-link}}.
There are cases where a user can copy image markdown from a public
post (such as via the discourse-templates plugin) into a PM which
is then sent via an email. Since a PM is a secure context (via the
.with_secure_uploads? check on Post), the image will get a secure
URL in the PM post even though the backing upload is not secure.
This fixes the bug in that case where the image would be stripped
from the email (since it had a /secure-uploads/ URL) but not re-attached
further down the line using the secure_uploads_allow_embed_images_in_emails
setting because the upload itself was not secure.
The flow in Email::Sender for doing this is still not ideal, but
there are chicken and egg problems around when to strip the images,
how to fit in with other attachments and email size limits, and
when to apply the images inline via Email::Styles. It's convoluted,
but at least this fixes the Template use case for now.
PERF: improve touch, swipe, panning performance on mobile menus
---
* stop event propagation on swipe events: other touch events were stealing a huge amount of time here. Stop event
propagation when handling pan events.
* animate with [web animations api](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Animations_API/Using_the_Web_Animations_API)
* prefer translate3d to hint for gpu rendering.
* query document for elements only on start move event, not on subsequent move
events
* remove unused calculations for directioned velocity and distance: all swipe/pan elements function in x/y direction only.
* re-implement scroll locking behavior.
re-implemented scroll lock behavior
---
With stop event propagation, we need to re-implement scroll locking on menu swipes.
Previously, this was using onTouchMove which was costly.
We may now use styling with overflow-y:hidden to lock scroll behavior.
overflow:hidden on html/body elements is now supported by iOS as of 2022
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153852https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220908
UX: improve swipe
---
Some improvements to get gestures and swipes feeling a little more polished.
This focuses on end gesture, and how we transfer it to a css animation to
complete a menu open/close action.
Multitouch: events may pan, scroll, and zoom - especially on iOS safari.
Cancelling the swipe event allows for a more pleasant zooming experience.
* ease-out on menus opening, linear on close
* calculate animation duration for opening and closing,
attempt to better transfer user swipe velocity to css animation.
* more timely close/open and cleanup from calculated animation timing.
* add animation to closing menus on cloak tap
* correctly animate menus with ease-in and ease-out
* add swipe cancel event on multitouch event
DEV
---
* lean on promises
js animations api gives us promises to listen to. Update test waiters
to use waitForPromise from @ember/test-waiters instead of reigster/unregister.
* convert swipe mixin to its own class.
Convert swipe callbacks to custom events on the element.
Move shared functions for max animation time and close logic to
new shared class.
swipe-events lib uses custom events to trigger callbacks, rather than assuming
implemented hard coded function from the mixin's base class. Custom events are
triggered from the bound element as swipestart, swipeend, swipe
Add shared convenience functions for swipe events so they can be more easily
shared.
A client receives an initial swipe event and can check some state to see if it
wants to handle the swipe event and if it doesn't, calling
`event.preventDefault();` will prevent `swipe` and `swipeend` events from firing
until another distinct swipestart event is fired. Swipe events will auto-cancel on multitouch.
The scroll lock has also exposed as its own utility class.
Why this change?
This ensures that malicious requests cannot end up causing the logs to
quickly fill up. The default chosen is sufficient for most legitimate
requests to the Discourse application.
When truncation happens, parsing of logs in supported format like
lograge may break down.
Why this change?
The `PostsController#create` action allows arbitrary topic custom fields
to be set by any user that can create a topic. Without any restrictions,
this opens us up to potential security issues where plugins may be using
topic custom fields in security sensitive areas.
What does this change do?
1. This change introduces the `register_editable_topic_custom_field` plugin
API which allows plugins to register topic custom fields that are
editable either by staff users only or all users. The registered
editable topic custom fields are stored in `DiscoursePluginRegistry` and
is called by a new method `Topic#editable_custom_fields` which is then
used in the `PostsController#create` controller action. When an unpermitted custom fields is present in the `meta_data` params,
a 400 response code is returned.
2. Removes all reference to `meta_data` on a topic as it is confusing
since we actually mean topic custom fields instead.
