By default, secure sessions expire after 1 hour.
For OAuth authentication it should expire at the same time when the authentication cookie expires - `SiteSetting.maximum_session_age.hours`.
It is possible that the forum will not have persistent sessions, based on `persistent_sessions` site setting. In that case, with next username and password authentication we need to reset information about OAuth.
Bug introduced in this PR - https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/27547
I am changing many of these to notes or resolving them as is,
most of these I have not actively worked on in years so someone
else can work on them when we get to these areas again.
This commit continues work laid out by ffec8163b0 for the admin config page for the /about page. The last commit set up the user interface, and this one sets up all the wiring needed to make the input fields and save buttons actually work.

When bad data is provided in the URI for redirecting to a category,
Rails raises an `ActionController::Redirecting::UnsafeRedirectError`
error, leading to a 500 error.
This patch catches the exception to render a 404 instead.
Currently redirecting to an external URL through a permalink doesn’t
work because Rails raises a
`ActionController::Redirecting::UnsafeRedirectError` error.
This wasn’t the case before we upgraded to Rails 7.0.
This patch fixes the issue by using `allow_other_host: true` on the
redirect.
If, for whatever reasons, the user's locale is "blank" and an admin is accepting their group membership request, there will be an error because we're generating posts with the locale of recipient.
In order to fix this, we now use the `user.effective_locale` which takes care of multiple things, including returning the default locale when the user's locale is blank.

If the `enforce_second_factor_on_external_auth` setting
is disabled and a user logs in with an OAuth method,
they don't automatically get redirected to /preferences/second-factor
on login. However, they can get there manually, and once there
they cannot leave.
This commit fixes the issue and allows them to leave
and also does some refactors to indicate to the client
what login method is used as a followup to

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.
Adds a checkbox to filter untranslated text strings in the admin UI, behind a hidden and default `false` site setting `admin_allow_filter_untranslated_text`.
Followup to 0e1102b332
Minor followup, makes the condition check against the
boolean val, see the difference here:
```ruby
!SiteSetting.enforce_second_factor_on_external_auth && "true"
=> "true"
```
vs:
```ruby
!SiteSetting.enforce_second_factor_on_external_auth && "true" == "true"
=> true
```
This ensures that the theme id is resolved as early as possible in the
request cycle. This is necessary for the custom homepage to skip
preloading the wrong data.
In this PR we introduced `enforce_second_factor_on_external_auth` setting https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/27506
When it is set to false and the user is authenticated via OAuth, then we should not enforce the 2fa configuration.
Some tooling may rely on an unsafe-none cross origin opener policy to work. This change adds a hidden site setting that can be used to list referrers where we add this header instead of the default one configured in cross_origin_opener_policy_header.
A new admin setting called `enforce_second_factor_on_external_auth`. It allows users to authenticate using external providers even when 2FA is forced with `enforce_second_factor` site setting.
* Load search results in displayed order so that when more categories are loaded on scroll, they appear at the end,
* Limit the number of subcategories that are shown per category and display 'show more' links,
This commit adds ability to fetch a subset of site settings from the `/admin/site_settings` endpoint so that it can be used in all places where the client app needs access to a subset of the site settings.
Additionally, this commit also introduces a new service class called `UpdateSiteSetting` that encapsulates all the logic that surrounds updating a site setting so that it can be used to update site setting(s) anywhere in the backend. This service comes in handy with, for example, the controller for the flags admin config area which may need to update some site settings related to flags.

After working on the Webhook events filter by Status, I noticed that the 'Delivered' and 'Failed' options do not take the status param when loading more than fifty Webhook events. It causes to load all Webhook events regardless of its status after the first load.

In some admin user controller extensions, @user is used to derive certain values.
The grant_admin method requires @user as well, so we are adding it here. This is tested in the plugin that it is used in.
This commit fixes a problem where the user will not be able to reset
their password when they only have security keys and backup codes
configured.
This commit also makes the following changes/fixes:
1. Splits password reset system tests to
`spec/system/forgot_password_spec.rb` instead of missing the system
tests in `spec/system/login_spec.rb` which is mainly used to test
the login flow.
2. Fixes a UX issue where the `Use backup codes` or `Use authenticator
app` text is shown on the reset password form when the user does
not have either backup codes or an authenticator app configured.
This commit includes various UX improvements to the reset
password page:
* Introduce a `hide-application-header-buttons` helper to do the following:
* Hide Sign Up and Log In buttons, they are not necessary on this flow
* Hide the sidebar, it is a distraction on this flow
* Improve messaging when a 2FA confirmation is required first
* Improve display of server-side ActiveRecord model validation errors
in password form, e.g. instead of "is the same as your current password"
we do "The password is the same as your current password"
* Move password tip to next line below input and move caps lock hint
inline with Show/Hide password toggle
* Add system specs for 2FA flow on reset password page
* Fixes a computed property conflict issue on the password reset
page when toggling 2FA methods
Continued work on moderate flags UI.
In this PR admins are allowed to change the order of flags. The notify user flag is always on top but all other flags can be moved.
This makes it more obvious what's happening, and makes it much less likely that users will send repeated reset emails (and thereby hit the rate limit)

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.
This commit removes the `/admin-revamp` routes which were introduced as a part of an experiment to revamp the admin pages. We still want to improve the admin/staff experience, but we're going to do them within the existing `/admin` routes instead of introducing a completely new route.
Our initial efforts to improve the Discourse admin experience is this commit which introduces the foundation for a new subroute `/admin/config` which will house various new pages for configuring Discourse. The first new page (or "config area") will be `/admin/config/about` that will house all the settings and controls for configuring the `/about` page of Discourse.

.. Google is still indexing the embed/comment URLs. This causes links like http://\<site>/embed/comments\?topic_id\=6366 to be indexed instead of the topic.
This commit adds it explicitly in the header.
This commit moves the logic for crawler rate limits out of the application controller and into the request tracker middleware. The reason for this move is to apply rate limits to all crawler requests instead of just the requests that make it to the application controller. Some requests are served early from the middleware stack without reaching the Rails app for performance reasons (e.g. `AnonymousCache`) which results in crawlers getting 200 responses even though they've reached their limits and should be getting 429 responses.

This gives us daily fidelity of topic view stats
New table stores a row per topic viewed per day tracking
anonymous and logged on views
We also have a new endpoint `/t/ID/views-stats.json` to get the statistics for the topic.
We're planning to implement a feature that allows adding required fields for existing users. This PR does some preparatory refactoring to make that possible. There should be no changes to existing behaviour. Just a small update to the admin UI.
This PR introduces a basic AdminNotice model to store these notices. Admin notices are categorized by their source/type (currently only notices from problem check.) They also have a priority.
This PR aims to add bulk actions to the user's bookmarks.
After this feature, all users should be able to select multiple bookmarks and perform the actions of "deleting" or "clear reminders"
Instead of creating two separate Topics when a user (1) requests to join a group and (2) gets accepted in, this makes the acceptance message into a Post under the origin group request Topic.
Note this may have performance issues in some cases, will need to be monitored
Previous to this change we were bracketing on 50 id windows. They may end up
having zero posts we are searching for leading to posts.rss and .json returning
no results.
- avoids Post.last.id which is expensive
- order by id desc which is better cause we bracket on id
In 07ecbb5a3b we ensure the mentions in a group's activity page worked properly but we missed adding proper support for infinite loading.
The client is using the `before` parameter instead of the `before_post_id` to do the pagination.
This adds support for `before` as well as some tests to ensure it doesn't regress.
I also added tests to the group's activity posts as well since those were missing.
Finally I deleted some unused code (`group.messages_for`) which is not used anymore.

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.

Using the CategoryDrop on the categories page redirected the user to the
"latest topics" page with topics only from that category. With these
changes, selecting a category will take the user to a "subcategories
page" where only the subcategories of the selected property will be
displayed.
The watched word group's create, update and delete action logs were missing the translations. This PR will add those strings and will use the group key instead of watched word key where needed.
