To eliminate a DDOS attack vector, we're taking the following measures:
The endpoint will be rate-limited to 3 requests every 60 seconds (per user).
A 24 hours max-age cache header is sent with the response.
The route will be hijacked to generate the certificate in the background.
When autocompleting mentions in secure categories, we immediately populate the list with users which have permission to view the category. This logic is applied to unsecured categories as well, but the server returns an empty list of users. This commit teaches the autocomplete to understand empty lists of users without terminating the autocomplete dropdown.
While editing the first post it does't bumped the topic when the new post revision created. Because we wrongly assumed that the hidden tags are changed even when no tags are updated.
Doing .pluck(:column).first is a very common pattern in Discourse and in
most cases, a limit cause isn't being added. Instead of adding a limit
clause to all these callsites, this commit adds two new methods to
ActiveRecord::Relation:
pluck_first, equivalent to limit(1).pluck(*columns).first
and pluck_first! which, like other finder methods, raises an exception
when no record is found
- destroyDraft which is called when we cancel a draft is now async,
removing race conditions when you click "reply" to a post and are
already editing. We used to trigger double dialogs for cancelling
drafts which was confusing.
- Remove reply as new topic / reply as pm keys, they are no longer
used and only caused confustion. For example we used to pop up a
warning when you are composing a reply and flick to reply as
new topic
- Remove createTopic key, this was a bug that proliferated. Whenever
creating a topic via the C shortcut or clicking on new topic on full
screen search the correct new topic draft key will be used
consistently
- When abandoning an edit we now say "Are you sure you want to discard
your changes" (instead of abandon your post which is confusing)
- Increase size of the reviewable's conversation excerpt to prevent truncation of the new copy
- Remove the `domain` parameter from the `flag_linked_posts_as_spam` method in the user model since it is no longer needed
- Remove the `domain` interpolation variable from all translation files
- Add "All posts from this user that include links should be reviewed." to server.en.yml for added clarity on why the posts entered the queue
* DEV: Remove badge-select-controller
1. The `selectableUserBadges` computed property of `badge-title` was being incorrectly overwritten, which triggered computed-property.override deprecation.
2. The `badge-select-controller` mixin contained properties that were used either by `badge-title` component or `badges/show` controller, but none were being used by both. This change moves properties where they belong, and removes the mixin.
* Update app/assets/javascripts/discourse/controllers/badges/show.js.es6

* Improve code brevity
`suspend` isn't a User attribute, but was being assigned to the frontend User model as if it was. The model has a computed property that depends on `suspended_till`, so instead of overriding this property, it's better to return relevant attributes.
Fixes a computed-property.override deprecation (https://emberjs.com/deprecations/v3.x#toc_computed-property-override)
The 'automatically set primary group' checkbox looked like it was associated with the email membership. In fact, it applies to all members who join the group. This commit moves it next to the 'automatic trust level' setting, and puts them both under an 'Effects' heading
Trying to truncate encoded slugs will mean that we have to keep the URL
valid, which can be tricky as you have to be aware of multibyte
characters.
Since we already have upper bounds for the title, the slug won't grow
for more than title*6 in the worst case. The slug column in the topic
table can store that just fine.
Added a test to ensure that a generated slug is a valid URL too, so we
don't introduce regressions in the future.
Under exceptional situations the automatic draft feature can fail.
This new **hidden, default off** site setting
`backup_drafts_to_pm_length` will automatically backup any draft that is
saved by the system to a dedicated PM (originating from self)
The body of that PM will contain the text of the reply.
We can enable this feature strategically on sites exhibiting issues to
diagnose issues with the draft system and offer a recourse to users who
appear to lose drafts. We automatically checkpoint these drafts every 5
minutes forcing a new revision each 5 minutes so you can revert to old
content.
Longer term we are considering automatically enabling this kind of feature
for extremely long drafts where the risk is really high one could lose
days of writing.
This reverts commit ab74a50d85.
We really want to upgrade redis, but discovered some edge cases
around failover we need to test.
Holding off on the upgrade till a bit more testing happens
