There have been too many flaky tests as a result of leaking state in
Redis so it is easier to resolve them by ensuring we flush Redis'
database.
Locally on my machine, calling `Discourse.redis.flushdb` takes around
0.1ms which means this change will have very little impact on test
runtimes.
The user option 'hide_profile_and_presence' is necessary to figure out
if the user status has to be displayed or not. In order to avoid N+1s
generated by `include_status?` method, both `user_status` and
`user_option` relations have to be included.
Currently, categories support designating only 1 group as a moderation group on the category. This commit removes the one group limitation and makes it possible to designate multiple groups as mods on a category.

We're seeing a lot of log noise coming from unhandled exceptions stemming from requests to TopicsController#show where id is passed in as an array.
In the implementation of the method, we assume that if id is present it will be a string. This is because one of the routes to this action uses :id as a URL fragment, and so must be a string. However, there are other routes that go to this endpoint as well. Some of them don't have this URL fragment, so you can pass an arbitrary id query parameter.
Instead of a downstream unhandled exception, we raise a Discourse::InvalidParameters upfront.
This commit improves `TopicsController#show` to not load suggested and
related topics unless it is the last page of the topic's view.
Previously, we avoided loading suggested and related topics by the use
of conditionals in the `TopicViewSerializer` to avoid calling
`TopicView#suggested_topics` and `TopicView#related_topics`. However,
this pattern is not reliable as the methods can still be called from
other spots in the code base. Instead, we ensure that
`TopicView#include_suggested` and `TopicView#include_related` is set
correctly on the instance of `TopicView` which ensures that for the
given instance, `TopicView#suggested_topics` and
`TopicView#related_topics` will be a noop.
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.

without errors.
* FEATURE: Clean up previously logged information after permanently deleting posts
When soft deleteing a topic or post, we will log some details in the
staff log, including the raw content of the post. Before this commit, we
will not clear the information in these records. Therefore, after
permanently deleting the post, `UserHistory` still retains copy of the
permanently deleted post. This is an unexpected behaviour and may raise
some potential legal issues.
This commit adds a behavior that when a post is permanently deleted, the
details column of the `UserHistory` associated with the post will be
overwritten to "(permanently deleted)". At the same time, for permanent
deletion, a new `action_id` is introduced to distinguish it from soft
deletion.

Previously, we did not log any topic slow mode changes. This allowed
some malicious (or just careless) TL4 users to delete slow modes created
by moderators at will. Administrators could not see who changed the slow
mode unless they had SQL knowledge and used Data Explorer.
This commit enables logging who turns slow mode on, off, or changes it.

When a crawler visits a topic that has a deleted author, it would error because the `show.html.erb` view was expecting a user to be always present.
This ensure we don't render the "author" meta data when the author of the topic has been deleted.

This commit moves topic view tracking from happening
every time a Topic is requested, which is susceptible
to inflating numbers of views from web crawlers, to
our request tracker middleware.
In this new location, topic views are only tracked when
the following headers are sent:
* HTTP_DISCOURSE_TRACK_VIEW - This is sent on every page navigation when
clicking around the ember app. We count these as browser page views
because we know it comes from the AJAX call in our app. The topic ID
is extracted from HTTP_DISCOURSE_TRACK_VIEW_TOPIC_ID
* HTTP_DISCOURSE_DEFERRED_TRACK_VIEW - Sent when MessageBus initializes
after first loading the page to count the initial page load view. The
topic ID is extracted from HTTP_DISCOURSE_DEFERRED_TRACK_VIEW.
This will bring topic views more in line with the change we
made to page views in the referenced commit and result in
more realistic topic view counts.
When converting a PM to a public topic (and vice versa), if there was a validation error (like a topic already used, or a tag required or not allowed) the error message wasn't bubbled up nor shown to the user.
This fix ensures we properly stop the conversion whenever a validation error happens and bubble up the errors back to the user so they can be informed.

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 ensures we only ever store correct post and topic timing when the client
notifies.
Previous to this change we would blindly trust the client.
Additionally this has error correction code that will correct the last seen
post number when you visit a topic with incorrect timings.
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.
This would allow a theme component (or an API call) to reset the bump
date of a topic to a given post's created_at date.
I picked `post_id` as the parameter here because it provides a bit of
extra protection against accidentally resetting the bump date to a date
that doesn't make sense.
For performance reasons we don't automatically add fabricated users to trust level auto-groups. However, when explicitly passing a trust level to the fabricator, in 99% of cases it means that trust level is relevant for the test, and we need the groups.
This change makes it so that when a trust level is explicitly passed to the fabricator, the auto-groups are refreshed. There's no longer a need to also pass refresh_auto_groups: true, which means clearer tests, fewer mistakes, and less confusion.
We have all these calls to Group.refresh_automatic_groups! littered throughout the tests. Including tests that are seemingly unrelated to groups. This is because automatic group memberships aren't fabricated when making a vanilla user. There are two places where you'd want to use this:
You have fabricated a user that needs a certain trust level (which is now based on group membership.)
You need the system user to have a certain trust level.
In the first case, we can pass refresh_auto_groups: true to the fabricator instead. This is a more lightweight operation that only considers a single user, instead of all users in all groups.
The second case is no longer a thing after #25400.
When navigating straight to a topic the category was not displayed at
all because the categories were not loaded. Similarly, the categories
for suggested topics were not loaded either.
This commit adds a list of categories to topic view model class and
serializer.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_level_to_create_tag site setting to create_tag_allowed_groups.
This PR maintains backwards compatibility until we can update plugins and themes using this.
Previously we hand no tests for `include_raw` which some consumers may
depend on.
Specifically, Discourse AI uses it to get raw markdown for a set of posts
on a topic.
Also cleans up tests so they lint with default ruby
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_level_to_allow_invite site setting to invite_allowed_groups.
Nothing much of note. This is used in one place and there's no fallout.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_to_edit_post site setting to edit_post_allowed_groups.
The old implementation will co-exist for a short period while I update any references in plugins and themes.

create_topic_allowed_groups.

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.
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.
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.
In #20135 we prevented invalid inputs from being accepted in category setting form fields on the front-end. We didn't do anything on the back-end at that time, because we were still discussing which path we wanted to take. Eventually we decided we want to move this to a new CategorySetting model.
This PR moves the require_topic_approval and require_reply_approval from custom fields to the new CategorySetting model.
This PR is nearly identical to #20580, which migrated num_auto_bump_daily, but since these are slightly more sensitive, they are moved after the previous one is verified.
We're seeing a large number of log noise from this endpoint due to malicious scanners that are trying to send clever params and seeing if they can break something.
This change simply rescues any NoMethodError during parameter parsing and re-raises a Discourse::InvalidParameters exception, which will be caught and render a 400.
Our code assumed the content_range interval was inclusive, but they are open-ended due to Postgres' [discrete range types](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/rangetypes.html#RANGETYPES-DISCRETE), meaning [1,2] will be represented as [1,3).
It also fixes some flaky tests due to test data not being correctly setup and the registry not being resetted after each test.
When we receive the stream parameter, we'll queue a job that periodically publishes partial updates, and after the summarization finishes, a final one with the completed version, plus metadata.
`summary-box` listens to these updates via MessageBus, and updates state accordingly.
This is a similar fix to 32d4810e2b
Why this change?
Prior to this change, there is a bug in `TopicsController#bulk`
where it does not dismiss new unred posts in sub-subcategories when the
`category_id` and `include_subcategories=true` params are present. This
is because the controller did not account for sub-subcategories when
fetching the category ids of the new topics that should be dismissed.
This commit fixes the problem by relying on the `Category.subcategory_ids` class
method which accounts for sub-subcategories.

Why this change?
Prior to this change, dismissing unreads posts did not publish the
changes across clients for the same user. As a result, users can end up
seeing an unread count being present but saw no topics being loaded when
visiting the `/unread` route.
* FEATURE: Inline topic summary. Cached version accessible to everyone.
Anons and non-members of the `custom_summarization_allowed_groups_map` groups can see cached summaries for any accessible topic. After the first 12 hours and if the posts to summarize have changed, allowed users clicking on the button will automatically re-generate it.
* Ensure chat summaries work and prevent model hallucinations when there are no messages.
* FEATURE: Content custom summarization strategies.
This PR establishes a pattern for plugins to register alternative ways of summarizing content by extending a class that defines an interface.
Core controls which strategy we'll use and who has access to it through the `summarization_strategy` and `custom_summarization_allowed_groups`. It also defines the UI for summarizing topics.
Other plugins can access this summarization mechanism and implement their features, removing cross-plugin customizations, as it currently happens between chat and the discourse-ai plugin.
* Group membership validation and rate limiting
* Work with objects instead of classes
* Port summarization feature from discourse-ai to chat
* Rename available summaries to 'Top Replies' and 'Summary'
