# Top level view
This PR is the first version of converting the search menu and its logic from (deprecated) widgets to glimmer components. The changes are hidden behind a group based feature flag. This will give us the ability to test the new implementation in a production setting before fully committing to the new search menu.
# What has changed
The majority of the logic from the widget implementation has been updated to fit within the context of a glimmer component, but it has not fundamentally changed. Instead of having a single widget - [search-menu.js](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/app/widgets/search-menu.js) - that built the bulk of the search menu logic, we split the logic into (20+) bite size components. This greatly increases the readability and makes extending a component in the search menu much more straightforward.
That being said, certain pieces needed to be rewritten from scratch as they did not translate from widget -> glimmer, or there was a general code upgraded needed. There are a few of these changes worth noting:
### Search Service
**Search Term** -> In the widget implementation we had a overly complex way of managing the current search term. We tracked the search term across multiple different states (`term`, `opts.term`, `searchData.term`) causing headaches. This PR introduces a single source of truth:
```js
this.search.activeGlobalSearchTerm
```
This tracked value is available anywhere the `search` service is injected. In the case the search term should be needs to be updated you can call
```js
this.search.activeGlobalSearchTerm = "foo"
```
**event listeners** -> In the widget implementation we defined event listeners **only** on the search input to handle things such as
- keyboard navigation / shortcuts
- closing the search menu
- performing a search with "enter"
Having this in one place caused a lot of bloat in our logic as we had to handle multiple different cases in one location. Do _x_ if it is this element, but do _y_ if it is another. This PR updates the event listeners to be attached to individual components, allowing for a more fine tuned set of actions per element. To not duplicate logic across multiple components, we have condensed shared logic to actions on the search service to be reused. For example - `this.search.handleArrowUpOrDown` - to handle keyboard navigation.
### Search Context
We have unique logic based on the current search context (topic / tag / category / user / etc). This context is set within a models route file. We have updated the search service with a tracked value `searchContext` that can be utilized and updated from any component where the search service is injected.
```js
# before
this.searchService.set("searchContext", user.searchContext);
# after
this.searchService.searchContext = user.searchContext;
```

- FIX: improves reactions and thread indicator touch event on mobile
These "buttons" are located inside a scroll list which makes them very specific. The general idea is to ensure these events are passive and are not bubbling to the parent.
- DEV: moves state on top level message node
- FIX: ensures popover arrow has the correct border
- FIX: makes a message expanded by default
- FIX applies the same ios scroll fix on thread and channel
- UI: better active/hover state for thread indicator
- UI: attempts to follow more closely our BEM naming scheme
- FIX: reduces bottom padding on message with thread indicator and user info hidden
- UI: add padding for first message in thread
- FIX: prevents actions backdrop to open thread
- UI: makes thread indicator resizable
What this change?
Previous solution relied on CSS to hide the header which is first
wasteful since we're still rendering the header and second makes it
untestable. If we don't want the header to show, we should avoid
rendering it in the first place.
* 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'
Improves the layout of most grids in posts, by using `object-fit: cover` for most images. This allows images to better fill up the space, without changing their aspect ratio.
* move the chat unread indicator to top to match the profile avatar indicator
* add white border to profile avatar indicator (badge notification) to match chat indicator and userstatus styling
* change `.urgent` to BEM
* congregate all styling into mixin
* update chat index to use mixin
* update thread indicator to use mixin
* update header indicator to use mixin

What does this change do?
This change is a continuation of
2191b879c6 and adds an input filter to the
edit sidebar categories modal which the user can use to filter through
the list of categories by the category's name.
Note that if a child category is being shown, all of its ancestors will
be shown even if the names of the ancestors do not match the given
filter. This is to ensure that we continue to display the hierarchy of a
child category even if the parent category does not match the filter.
Adds a new `[grid]` tag that can arrange images (or other media) into a grid in posts.
The grid defaults to a 3-column with a few exceptions:
- if there are only 2 or 4 items, it defaults to a 2-column grid (because it generally looks better)
- on mobile, it defaults to a 2-column grid
- if there is only one item, the grid has no effect
Why this change?
Before this change, the `GroupNotificationsButton` is rendered in the
template of `userPrivateMessages` route based on a conditional that
checks if the `isGroup` property is true. However, the `isGroup`
property is determined based on the child route that is rendered.
However, this leads to "jankiness" in the UI because the
`GroupNotificationsButton` will be rendered once the route is entered
even if the model for the child route has not been resolved yet.
What is the solution?
In order to avoid this, we move the rendering of the
`GroupNotificationsButton` into the template of the
`userPrivateMessages.group` route and rely on the `in-element` helper to
render it into the right spot in the template of the
`userPrivateMessages` route.
Prior to this commit, we didn't have RTL versions of our admin and plugins CSS bundles and we always served LTR versions of those bundles even when users used an RTL locale, causing admin and plugins UI elements to never look as good as when an LTR locale was used. Example of UI issues prior to this commit were: missing margins, borders on the wrong side and buttons too close to each other etc.
This commit creates an RTL version for the admin CSS bundle as well as RTL bundles for all the installed plugins and serves those RTL bundles to users/sites who use RTL locales.
What is the problem?
There are two problems being fixed here:
1. When opening the composer, we are seeing multiple requests made to
the `/composer_messages` endpoint. This is due to our use of the
`transitionend` event on the `#reply-control` element. The event is
fired once for each transition event and the `#reply-control` element
has multiple transition events.
2. System tests have animations disabled so the `transitionend` event
does not fire at all.
What is the solution?
Instead of relying on the `transitionend` event, we can instead just
observer the `composerState` property of the `ComposerBody` component
and trigger the `composer:opened` appEvent with a delay that is similar
to the transition duration used for the `ComposerBody` component.
We currently have some CSS rules in `common/base/rtl.scss` that were added to workaround shortcomings of the R2 gem that we used to use to generate versions of our CSS that are suitable for RTL layouts. Those workarounds are mostly duplicates of existing rules with the only difference being that they're flipped to suit RTL layouts (e.g. `padding-left` is changed to `padding-right` and vice versa).
However, we've recently replaced R2 with `rtlcss` which doesn't have those shortcomings of R2 (see f94951147e) which means those workarounds/duplicate rules need to be removed because they're getting flipped by `rltcss`, essentially reverting them to their original LTR version and causing issues with RTL layouts.
This commit removes those workarounds that are no longer needed, and cleans up the the file that contains our RTL-specific CSS.
Meta topic: https://meta.discourse.org/t/avatar-in-rtl-website-in-wrong-place/264676?u=osama.
Allow admins to edit Community section. This includes drag and drop reorder, change names, delete and reset to default.
Visual improvements introduced in edit community section modal are available in edit custom section form as well. For example:
- drag and drop links to change their position;
- smaller icon picker.
When a user chooses to move a topic/message to an existing topic/message, they can now opt to merge the posts chronologically (using a checkbox in the UI).
Before this commit chat was applying a fixed height on everything under the `/chat` route. It's only really needed on the channel page with the composer at the bottom of the page.
This commits makes the following changes:
- moves height limitation from `#main-outlet-wrapper` to `.chat-channel`
- makes browse channel page and members list page full height and rely on main document scrollbar
- adds height computation for draft header and direct message creator block to ensure the height is correct when creating a draft channel
- makes chat index full height to rely on the browser scrollbar. As a result the <kbd> + </kbd> button used on mobile to create a direct message as been moved out of `<ChannelsList>` into the chat index template
- sidebar height was relying on chat setting a max height, as a result the height computation of sidebar has been changed to work correctly, especially with an opened keyboard on mobile or ipad
