* FIX: participating users statistics...
... was (mis-)counting
- bots
- anonymous users
- suspended users
There's now a "valid_users" function that holds the AR query for valid users and which is used in all "users", "active_users", and "participating_users" queries.
Internal ref - t/138435
We're seeing errors in logs due to some sites setting the reserved_usernames setting to nil. This is causing multiple use cases upstream of User#reserved_username? to error out.
This commit changes from using the raw #reserved_usernames to using the #reserved_usernames_map helper which exists on list-type site settings. It returns an empty array if the raw value is nil or empty string.
Constants should always be only assigned once. The logical OR assignment
of a constant is a relic of the past before we used zeitwerk for
autoloading and had bugs where a file could be loaded twice resulting in
constant redefinition warnings.
The `id` column of `notifications` table and `notification_id` columns
of the other tables have been migrated to bigint in previous commits
(for example, 799a45a).
In order to run the migrations with zero downtime, the data had to be
copied to new columns and swapped, but the old columns have been kept
to allow for rollback. They are no longer needed now.
* Add migrations to ensure password hash is synced across users & user_passwords
* Persist password-related data in user_passwords instead of users
* Merge User#expire_old_email_tokens with User#expire_tokens_if_password_changed
* Add post deploy migration to mark password-related columns from users table as read-only
* Refactored UserPassword#confirm_password? and changes required to accommodate hashing the password after validations
In 14cf8eacf1, we added the
`user_search_similar_results` site setting which when enabled will use
trigram matching for similarity search in `UserSearch`. However, we
noted that adding the `index_users_on_username_lower_trgm` index is
causing the PG planner to not use the `index_users_on_username_lower`
index when the `=` operator is used against the `username_lower` column.
Based on the PG mailing list discussion where support for the `=`
operator in gist_trgm_ops was being considered, it stated that "I also have checked that btree_gist is preferred over pg_trgm gist
index for equality search." This is however quite different from reality
on our own PG clusters where the btree index is not preferred leading to
significantly slower queries when the `=` operator is used.
Since the pg_trgm gist index is only used for queries when the `user_search_similar_results` site setting
is enabled, we decided to drop the feature instead as it is hidden and
disabled by default. As such, we can consider it experiemental and drop
it without deprecation.

The previous commit added an `after_create` callback that triggers a refresh for the user directory whenever a `User` record is created. Theoretically, this approach should work, however, there's a gotcha in practice, because during a real user registration, when the `User` record is created in the database, it's not marked as active until the user verifies their email address and the user directory excludes inactive users, so the initial directory refresh triggered by the `after_create` callback becomes pointless.
To make a new user appear in the user directory immediately after sign up, we need to trigger a refresh via an `after_save` callback when they verify their email address and become active.
This check was checking the wrong scope, causing problems in certain edge conditions, for example:
1. Admin adds an "on signup" field that isn't editable after signup.
2. Admin adds a "for all users" field.
3. User goes and fills up the "for all users" field from 2.
4. User is now stuck on the required fields page without any fields showing.
With this change, we only consider "for all users" fields when asking if required custom fields are filled in.
This commit moves the business logic in the `Admin::UsersController#suspend` and `Admin::UsersController#silence` actions to dedicated service classes. There's no functional changes in this commit.
Internal topic: t/130014.
This commit fixes a bug where the silence button is incorrectly displayed on the admin page of a staff user. It's not actually possible to silence a staff user because the backend correctly prevents it, but the frontend isn't checking if the button should be displayed.
Another small bug that this commit fixes is the similar users list not showing up inside the silence/suspend modals due to also a bug in the frontend.
I've also changed the way similar users are loaded so that they're not returned by the `admin/users#show` endpoint anymore and moved them into a new endpoint that the penalize modals (suspend and silence) can call directly to retrieve the list of users. This is done because the similar users list is never shown on the admin user page (`/admin/users/:user_id/:username`); they're only needed when the suspend or silence modals are opened.

### Why?
Before, all flags were static. Therefore, they were stored in class variables and serialized by SiteSerializer. Recently, we added an option for admins to add their own flags or disable existing flags. Therefore, the class variable had to be dropped because it was unsafe for a multisite environment. However, it started causing performance problems.
### Solution
When a new Flag system is used, instead of using PostActionType, we can serialize Flags and use fragment cache for performance reasons.
At the same time, we are still supporting deprecated `replace_flags` API call. When it is used, we fall back to the old solution and the admin cannot add custom flags. In a couple of months, we will be able to drop that API function and clean that code properly. However, because it may still be used, redis cache was introduced to improve performance.
To test backward compatibility you can add this code to any plugin
```ruby
replace_flags do |flag_settings|
flag_settings.add(
4,
:inappropriate,
topic_type: true,
notify_type: true,
auto_action_type: true,
)
flag_settings.add(1001, :trolling, topic_type: true, notify_type: true, auto_action_type: true)
end
```

Previously in these 2 PRs, we introduced a new site setting `SiteSetting.enforce_second_factor_on_external_auth`.
https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/27547https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/27674
When disabled, it should enforce 2FA for local login with username and password and skip the requirement when authenticating with oauth2.
We stored information about the login method in a secure session but it is not reliable. Therefore, information about the login method is moved to the database.
Allow admin to create custom flag which requires an additional message.
I decided to rename the old `custom_flag` into `require_message` as it is more descriptive.

When tag preference in group and site settings are both used with same default notification level it will break new users signups because it tries to create duplicate records in the tag_users table which can’t happen because we have a unique index set.
If an existing user (John) accepts an invite created by Kenny to a group, John may be seen as invited by Kenny, despite already having an account on the site.
This fix removes the bug by excluding invites that determine the invited_by after the user's creation date. The delay buffer in the query accounts for invites that also create the user at the same time.
We want to allow admins to make new required fields apply to existing users. In order for this to work we need to have a way to make those users fill up the fields on their next page load. This is very similar to how adding a 2FA requirement post-fact works. Users will be redirected to a page where they can fill up the remaining required fields, and until they do that they won't be able to do anything else.
* DEV: Upgrade Rails to 7.1

`Rails.logger.chained` was provided by Logster before Rails 7.1
introduced their broadcast logger. Now all the loggers are added to
`Rails.logger.broadcasts`.
Some code in our initializers was still using `chained` instead of
`broadcasts`.

This commit adds the ability for site administrators to mark users'
passwords as expired. Note that this commit does not add any client side
interface to mark a user's password as expired.
The following changes are introduced in this commit:
1. Adds a `user_passwords` table and `UserPassword` model. While the
`user_passwords` table is currently used to only store expired
passwords, it will be used in the future to store a user's current
password as well.
2. Adds a `UserPasswordExpirer.expire_user_password` method which can
be used from the Rails console to mark a user's password as expired.
3. Updates `SessionsController#create` to check that the user's current
password has not been marked as expired after confirming the
password. If the password is determined to be expired based on the
existence of a `UserPassword` record with the `password_expired_at`
column set, we will not log the user in and will display a password
expired notice. A forgot password email is automatically send out to
the user as well.
The users directory is updated on a daily cadence. However, when a site is new and doesn't have many users, it can be confusing that a user who has just joined doesn't show up in the users until a day after they join. To eliminate this confusion, this commit triggers a refresh for the users directory as soon as as a user joins, if the site is in bootstrap mode. The reason for the conditional trigger is that refreshing the users directory is an expensive operation and doing it often on a large site with many users could lead to performance problems.

This will automatically enable the glimmer header when all installed themes/plugins are ready. This replaces the old group-based site setting.
In 'auto' mode, we check for calls to deprecated APIs (e.g. decorateWidget) which affect the old header. If any are present, we stick to the old header implementation and print a message to the console alongside the normal deprecation messages.
To override this automatic behavior, a new `glimmer_header_mode` site setting can be set to 'disabled' or 'enabled'.
This change also means that our test suite is running with the glimmer header. This unveiled a couple of small issues (e.g. some incorrect `aria-*` and `alt` text) which are now fixed. A number of selectors had to be updated to ensure the tests were clicking the actual `<button>` elements rather than the surrounding `<li>` elements.
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.
This enables the following in Discourse AI
```
plugin.register_modifier(:chat_allowed_bot_user_ids) do |user_ids, guardian|
if guardian.user
mentionables = AiPersona.mentionables(user: guardian.user)
allowed_bot_ids = mentionables.map { |mentionable| mentionable[:user_id] }
user_ids.concat(allowed_bot_ids)
end
user_ids
end
```
some bots that are id < 0 need to be discoverable in search otherwise people can not talk to them.

This is a temporary fix to address an issue where the
system user is losing its automatic groups when the server
is running. If any auto groups are provided, and the user is
a system user, then we return true. The system user is admin,
moderator, and TL4, so they usually have all auto groups.
We can remove this when we get to the bottom of why the auto
groups are being deleted.
