Our autocomplete box doesn't currently take into account the user's locale and places itself off-screen when using an RTL locale. This commit changes the placement logic for the autocomplete box when an RTL locale is used to make sure that:
1. the autocomplete box's right side is near and to the left of the caret
2. the autocomplete box doesn't go beyond the composer's left side.
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.
* FEATURE: reduce avatar sizes to 6 from 20
This PR introduces 3 changes:
1. SiteSetting.avatar_sizes, now does what is says on the tin.
previously it would introduce a large number of extra sizes, to allow for
various DPIs. Instead we now trust the admin with the size list.
2. When `avatar_sizes` changes, we ensure consistency and remove resized
avatars that are not longer allowed per site setting. This happens on the
12 hourly job and limited out of the box to 20k cleanups per cycle, given
this may reach out to AWS 20k times to remove things.
3.Our default avatar sizes are now "24|48|72|96|144|288" these sizes were
very specifically picked to limit amount of bluriness introduced by webkit.
Our avatars are already blurry due to 1px border, so this corrects old blur.
This change heavily reduces storage required by forums which simplifies
site moves and more.

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.

We were calling reset without the proper params which was causing errors in the console. This commit does the following changes:
- ensures `composer.cancel()` is the only way to cancel editing/reply
- adds a `draftSaved` property to chat message to allow for better tests
- writes a spec to ensure the flow is correct
- adds more page objects for better tests
- homogenize the default state of objects on chat message

Privacy Policy and Terms of Service topics are no longer created by
default for communities that have not set a company name. For this
reason, some URLs were pointing to 404 page.
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.
Why is this change required?
The flaky system test was due to the fact that we had to poll for the
user preferences interface page to reload after saving. However, this
turns out to be a bug on the user perferences interface page because the
page should only reload if the user has selected a new theme that is
different from the site's default but we were reloading the page for
users that did not have any user theme selected. Therefore there was an
unnecessary reload happening when saving other fields on the user
preferences interface page.
Followup to eae47d82e2,
we removed some specificity from the hashtag color
CSS classes, but now the color is being overridden
by the base hashtag-cooked.d-icon color. This color
is no longer needed, so we just remove that and
the specificity.

Why are we making this change?
Currently, we are displaying the value of the `short_site_description`
site setting in the sidebar only for anonymous user. However, the
display of the description seems out of place in both the `sidebar` and
`header dropdown` navigation menu and do not think the sidebar is the
right place to display it anymore.
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).
This brings the behaviour in line with our other widget-related APIs like `decorateWidget` and `reopenWidget`. This commit also adds a theme/plugin prefix to the console messages.
For now, state is still stored in the modal controller. Eventually the controller will be replaced with a component, and the state will be stored in the service.

What is this change required?
I noticed that actions in `SidebarSectionsController` resulted in
lots of N+1 queries problem and I wanted a solution to
prevent such problems without having to write N+1 queries tests. I have
also used strict loading for `SidebarSection` queries in performance
sensitive spots.
Note that in this commit, I have also set `config.active_record.action_on_strict_loading_violation = :log`
for the production environment so that we have more visibility of
potential N+1 queries problem in the logs. In development and test
environment, we're sticking with the default of raising an error.
Legal topics, such as the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy topics
do not make sense if the entity creating the community is not a company.
These topics will be created and updated only when the company name is
present and deleted when it is not.
This PR adds status to mentions in chat and makes those mentions receive live updates.
There are known unfinished part in this implementation: when posting a message, status on mentions on that message appears immediately, but only if a user used autocomplete when typing the message. If user copy and paste a message with mentions into chat composer, those mentions won't have user status on them.
PRs with fixes for both problems are following soon.
Preparations for this PR that were made previously include:
- DEV: correct a relationship – a chat message may have several mentions 0dcfd7ddec
- DEV: extract the logic for extracting and expanding mentions from ChatNotifier 75b81b6854
- DEV: Always create chat mention records fa543cda06

This commit prevents unallowed URLs in iframe src by adding a relative path like `https://bob.com/abc/def/../ghi`. Currently, the iframe linking to the site uses the current_user, not the post's author, so users who have no access to a certain path are not able to view anything they shouldn't.
Why this change?
This change allows plugins or themes to replace the tag icon in the
sidebar. The color of the icon can be customised as well.
However, do note that this change is marked experimental as we intend to
support custom icons for tags in the near term as part of Discourse core.
Therefore, the plugin API will become obsolete once that happens and we
are marking it experimental to avoid having to deprecate it.
This commit makes some fundamental changes to how hashtag cooking and
icon generation works in the new experimental hashtag autocomplete mode.
Previously we cooked the appropriate SVG icon with the cooked hashtag,
though this has proved inflexible especially for theming purposes.
Instead, we now cook a data-ID attribute with the hashtag and add a new
span as an icon placeholder. This is replaced on the client side with an
icon (or a square span in the case of categories) on the client side via
the decorateCooked API for posts and chat messages.
This client side logic uses the generated hashtag, category, and channel
CSS classes added in a previous commit.
This is missing changes to the sidebar to use the new generated CSS
classes and also colors and the split square for categories in the
hashtag autocomplete menu -- I will tackle this in a separate PR so it
is clearer.
This might soon become a first class feature in Discourse core in the
short term so marking it as experimental for now to bridge
certain Discourse own-ed plugins and themes.
This commit adds the experimental `registerCustomCategorySectionLinkPrefix` client side
plugin API that allows themes or plugins to override the prefix of a
category section link.
This is marked experimental because we might be introducing a core
feature where category icons are supported. This is currently use as a
bridge for the https://github.com/discourse/discourse-category-icons
theme component.
* FIX: Fix for Default to subcategory when parent category does not allow posting
* added tests for edge case scenario
* implemented correct behaviour when parent category doesn't have subcategories
* implemented new fabricator for categories and suggested changes
New client side plugin API that allows plugins or themes to customize
the fontawesome 5 icon used to indicate that a category is locked/read
restricted.
The welcome topic user tip was for admins only, but in general, user
tips should be used for guiding new users through the features that
Discourse offers. For this reason, we decided to remove the user tip.
This commit also includes a few more copy tweaks to the welcome topic.
What is the problem?
This is a follow up to 4cca7de22d. In the
commit, CSS was used to disable the collapsing of sections in the header
dropdown navigation menu when the `navigation_menu` site setting is set
to `header dropdown`. However, using CSS is not the correct approach as
the underlying code is still marking the section as collapsable which
means that the sections will still be displayed as collapsed with no way
to "uncollapse" if the local store has already marked the section as
collapsed.
What is the fix?
This commit removes the usage of CSS to hide the collapsabe button and
instead correctly marks the section as not collapsable in the code.
Context of the problem
When viewing the topic list for either the personal inbox or the group
PM inbox, we store a cache of the topic list if the user has loaded more
topics in the topic list. This cache is used to improve the experience
for users so that navigating to a topic and then back would not make
them lose their "last read" position in the topic list. Without this
cache, users will have to start from the top of the topic list each time
they navigate back after reading a topic.
What is the problem?
After archiving a PM, the user is redirected to either the personal
inbox or the group PM inbox. The problem is that if a topic list cache
exists, we will render the topic list using the cache. However, this
means that the archived PM will still appear in the list leading to
confusion for our users.
What is the fix?
To fix this, we will simply clear the topic list cache after a user
archives a topic.
It wasn't possible (at least in any reasonable way) to pass params like `tags`. Also removes the export and inlines the function as that was used only to test the function and the test is gone.
This test was passing, but the environment it was testing was incorrect.
The `image-controls` markdown rule allowlists several svgs when previewing.
But since `previewing: true` is only set on the parent `ComposerEditor`
component, the test in `DEditor` wasn't aware of that, so the output was
ignoring the `previewing` option.
This moves the test one level higher, to `ComposerEditor`, and because
now `previewing: true` is correctly used, it updates the test to show
that the svg element is present, but an `onload` attributes is stripped.
We have been struggling lately finding site settings due to 30 setting limit
This was introduced for performance reasons a while back but is no longer as
needed given that ember is faster.
Additionally searching is hard, so allow people to use fuzzy search against
setting name.
What is the problem?
Previously the `sections` getter was initializing duplicate `lib/sidebar/(community-)section` instances every time it was evaluated. This change in identity was causing Ember's `{{#each` helper to totally rerender every section whenever the getter was evaluated.
What is the fix?
This commit refactors things to lean on Ember's components for state/lifecycle management. The `{{#each` loop is done over the source data, which is guaranteed to only change identity when there is a real config change. Individual section components are initialized for each section, and are responsible for constructing and tearing down their own `lib/sidebar/(community-)section` instances.
This commit also updates `lib/sidebar/(community-)section` to support service injection rather than passing service references around.

* FIX: Displaying the wrong number of minimum tags in the composer
When the minimum number of tags set for the category is larger than the minimum number of tags
set in the category tag-groups, the composer was displaying the wrong value.
This commit fixes the value displayed in the composer to show the max value between the required
for the category and the tag-groups set for the category.
This bug was reported on Meta in https://meta.discourse.org/t/tags-from-multiple-tag-groups-required-only-suggest-select-at-least-one-tag/263817
* FIX: Limiting tags in categories not working as expected
When a category was restricted to a tag group A, which was set to only allow
one tag from the group per topic, selecting a tag belonging only to A returned
other tags from A that also belonged to other group/s (if any).
Example:
Tag group A: alpha, beta, gamma, epsilon, delta
Tag group B: alpha, beta, gamma
Both tag groups set to only allow one tag from the group per topic.
If Category 1 was set to only allow tags from the tag group A, and the first tag
selected was epsilon, then, because they also belonged to tag group B, the tags
alpha, beta, and gamma were still returned as valid options when they should not be.
This commit ensures that once a tag from a tag group that restricts its tags to
one per topic is selected, no other tag from this group is returned.
This bug was reported on Meta in https://meta.discourse.org/t/limiting-tags-to-categories-not-working-as-expected/263143.
* FIX: Moving topics does not prompt to add required tag for new category
When a topic moved from a category to another, the tag requirements
of the new category were not being checked.
This allowed a topic to be created and moved to a category:
- that limited the tags to a tag group, with the topic containing tags
not allowed.
- that required N tags from a tag group, with the topic not containing
the required tags.
This bug was reported on Meta in https://meta.discourse.org/t/moving-tagged-topics-does-not-prompt-to-add-required-tag-for-new-category/264138.
* FIX: Editing topics with tag groups from parents allows incorrect tagging
When there was a combination between parent tags defined in a tag group
set to allow only one tag from the group per topic, and other tag groups
relying on this restriction to combine the children tag types with the
parent tag, editing a topic could allow the user to insert an invalid
combination of these tags.
Example:
Automakers tag group: landhover, toyota
- group set to limit one tag from the group per topic
Toyota models group: land-cruiser, hilux, corolla
Landhover models group: evoque, defender, discovery
If a topic was initially set up with the tags toyota, land-cruiser it was
possible to edit it by removing the tag toyota and adding the tag landhover
and other landhover model tags like evoque for example.
In this case, the topic would end up with the tags toyota, land-cruiser,
landhover, evoque because Discourse will automatically insert the
missing parent tag toyota when it detects the tag land-cruiser.
This combination of tags would violate the restriction specified in
the Automakers tag group resulting in an invalid combination of tags.
This commit enforces that the "one tag from the group per topic"
restriction is verified before updating the topic tags and also
make sure the verification checks the compatibility of parent tags that
would be automatically inserted.
After the changes, the user will receive an error similar to:
The tags land-cruiser, landhover cannot be used simultaneously.
Please include only one of them.
Moving all control of 'hidden' into Ember will resolve issues we're seeing with Ember fighting against manual DOM manipulation (both vanilla JS and JQuery).
Looking up `controller:modal` from components is not ideal. However, the next step in the refactoring is to create a modal 'service' which will be able to injected into components cleanly.
Having these things configured at the invocation of showModal is a strange API, and means that any changes to the modal require updating the call sites. It makes much more sense for these to be defined as part of the modal's own template. This was already supported for many of the properties. This commit adds support for the `modalClass` and `titleAriaElementId` config to be passed to DModalBody.
For now there is no deprecation message. Support for passing these things to `showModal` will be dropped as part of an upcoming conversion of modals from controllers to components.
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
Watched words were converted to regular expressions containing \W, which
handled only ASCII characters. Using [^[:word]] instead ensures that
UTF-8 characters are also handled correctly.
What is the problem?
The main problem here is that we were incorrectly registering the same `onStateChange` callback with `TopicTrackingState`
each time a user reads a post. When a user reads a post, the state in `TopicTrackingState` is updated and it triggers all
the `onStateChange` callbacks which have been registered. In the `CommunitySection` class, we register a callback which
would then call the `onTopicTrackingStateChange` method for each link in the class. For the `EverythingSectionLink` class,
this would lookup the state in `TopicTrackingState` to get a new count of unread/new topics and update the `totalUnread` and
`totalNew` properties which are tracked. For some reason that I have yet to figure out, updating the either of the tracked properties
would result in Ember rerendering the entire `{{#each this.sections as |section|}}` in `component/sidebar/user/custom-sections.hbs`
template. Note that `this.sections` refers to a `@cached` getter in the `SidebarUserCustomSections` class. The problem is that
the `sections` getter is initializing a new bunch of sidebar sections related classes without calling the teardown function.
As a result, we end up registering new `onStateChange` callbacks in `TopicTrackingState` in `CommunitySection` without
removing the old ones. Over time, the number of callbacks build up and we end up slowing down the application. While we do
not know the reason why defining a getter for the `sections` is causing the entire block to re-render, I realized that
it is dangerous to use a getter for `sections` here since we have very little control on when the cached is broken.
Instead, I moved the `sections` getter to a tracked property instead where the property is updated via `appEvents`. With
this change, updating the tracked properties in `EverythingSectionLink` is no longer triggering a complete re-render of the
said block above. We also now call `teardown` on the section objects that has been initialised before updating the `sections`
property.
An extensibility point we support server side is setting meta_data
(topic / post custom fields) with the composer payload.
Previous to this change even though we had a lot of setup code we never
actually sent the payload.
This ensures that on create we send meta_data.
- Update welcome topic copy
- Edit the welcome topic automatically when the title or description changes
- Remove “Create your Welcome Topic” banner/CTA
- Add "edit welcome topic" user tip
a373bf2 updated the behavior of replace-emoji so that the input is treated as unsafe-by-default. fancy_title is already escaped, so we need to mark it as html-safe to avoid it being double-escaped.
There is no need to html-safe the result of replace-emoji - it's already done as part of the helper.
The issues fixed:
1. Previously all static pages (e.g. login-required landing page, /tos, /privacy, forgot-password) were wrapped in the faq-read-tracking component
2. All these pages shared one controller with methods that were relevant to one route
3. There were two route-generating functions: `static-route-builder` and `build-static-route` 🤣
4. They were using the deprecated `renderTemplate()` API
5. A slight misuse of Ember API (`controllerFor()`)
6. Small mark-faq-read related bugs
added site toggle functionality through site settings
added tests to implemented feature
Introduced suggested correction
renamed find_new_topic method and deleted click_new_topic_button method
Currently the /new-category url can be accessed by moderators, regardless of whether the Site Setting for moderators_manage_categories_and_groups is true or false.
On top of this, non authorized users can also access this page but shows errors (no 404 loaded).
Since the 404 redirect happens within Ember, we need to allow the site setting value to be accessed within JS.
After this change all non admin users will see a 404 for this route, the exception being moderators if the moderators_manage_categories_and_groups setting has a value of true.

The problem
When selecting text and clicking the "Edit" button that pops up, this opens up the Fast Edit dialog.
The fast edit feature doesn't work well with non standard characters (non-ascii). If the user selects a string of text that contains non-ascii characters, sometimes they won't save. It is non-obvious to the user why this is happening. This issue occurs more frequently when editing content that is written in non-english languages, as fast-edit doesn't work well with non-ascii characters. We currently do a global replace on a couple of the more obvious quotation marks when the fast edit dialog attempts to save, but there are too many edge cases for foreign language content.
The solution
We can fix this issue by using a catch-all approach for non-ascii characters before the user clicks the edit button to bring up the fast edit dialog. Then we can fallback to the full composer to edit their text, which has much better support for non-ascii characters.
What does this regex do?
The regex used matches any character that is not within the ASCII range of 0x00 to 0x7F, which includes all control characters and non-ASCII characters.
This regex pattern can be used to match any character that is not a standard ASCII character, such as accented characters, non-Latin characters, and special symbols.
This improves keyboard navigation in and out of select-kit components.
The improvements include:
- `Tab` will now dismiss the dropdown once the active element is outside
the select-kit element
- pressing `Escape` will not bubble, this is most noticeable in the
composer, pressing `Esc` there now when a dropdown is expanded will not
dismiss the composer
- `Shift+Tab` will also dismiss the dropdown once focus is outside it
The problem
The fast edit feature doesn't work well with non standard characters (non-ascii). If the user selects a string of text that contains non-ascii characters, then the edit won't save.
The solution
The best solution is to catch those non-ascii characters before the user clicks the edit button to bring up the fast edit dialog. Then we can fallback to the full composer to edit their text, which has much better support for non-ascii characters.
What does this regex do?
The regex used to catch this is [^\x00-\x7F], which matches any character that is not within the ASCII range of 0x00 to 0x7F, which includes all control characters and non-ASCII characters.
This regex pattern can be used to match any character that is not a standard ASCII character, such as accented characters, non-Latin characters, and special symbols.
Ember's implicit injections feature is removed in Ember 4.x. We want to give ourselves more time to migrate to explicit injections, so this commit re-implements our implicit injections as extensions to the base framework classes.
Incremental migration to newer patterns can be achieved using the `@disableImplicitInjections` class decorator (available from `discourse/lib/implicit-injections').
This resolves and unsilences the `implicit-injections` deprecation.
Change mechanism handling `more` button for sidebar.
Before it was using HTML details tag.
To make tests more reliable, we are switching to use ember runloop.
What is the problem?
The TopicTrackingState is a service on the client side that is used to store
state of topics which is new or has unread posts for a given user. The state
is updated via various means and the one in concern here is whenever we load
a new topic list from the server. When a topic list is loaded from the server,
we sync this new topic list with the states in TopicTrackingState. There is also
a hard limit on the number of states that is stored by TopicTrackingState for
performance reasons and the limit is currently set to 4000. It was noticed that
once this limit has been reached, syncing a topic list with TopicTrackingState can
result in the registered state change callbacks to be called unnecessarily. This
is because during `TopicTrackingState#sync` we call `TopicTrackingState#removeTopic`
if the topic in question is neither new or unread to a user. However, `TopicTrackingState#removeTopic`
would call `TopicTrackingState#_afterStateChange` even if nothing was removed.
What is the fix?
This commit fixes the problem by checking that `TopicTrackingState#_afterStateChange` is only
called in `TopicTrackingState#removeTopic` when a topic is actually removed.
- Ensure changing timezones are reflected immediately in the date-time-input (the computed property was missing a dependent key)
- Ensure date-input doesn't lose timezone information (calling `toDate()` causes moment timestamps to lose timezone information)
