We recently tried to default the normalize_emails site setting to true to avoid spam. What this does is it considers e-mails the same regardless of plus addressing, e.g. bob+1@mail.com == bob+2@mail.com. This caused some problems for SSO users.
This PR makes it so that DiscourseConnect never normalizes e-mails.
This moves the logic of setting the correct permalink values back into the controller. And it replaces the validation with a simpler one, that always works, even when the model is loaded from the DB.
Follow-up to #29634 which broke import scripts and lots of documentation on Meta.
while it is ok to have the check for if the person can delete a topic, for this feature some times you might want some more flexibility.
Instead of relying on patching this class and method, it would be better to have a modifier that can be decide if the topic should be deleted after the merge.

Due to the S3 dualstack endpoint change, sites with
S3 backups configured but _not_ S3 uploads were erroring,
with admins unable to access the backups page. This
commit fixes the error by not enabling S3 dualstack
endpoints if S3 uploads have not been enabled, backups
don't need to use them.

Redesign the permalinks page to follow the UX guide. In addition, the ability to edit permalinks was added.
This change includes:
- move to RestModel
- added Validations
- update endpoint and clear old values after the update
- system specs and improvements for unit tests
It splits the hide_profile_and_presence user option and the default_hide_profile_and_presence site setting for more granular control. It keeps the option to hide the profile under /u/username/preferences/interface and adds the presence toggle in the quick user menu.

This is a very simple change, which creates a permanent table in the DB, rather than generating a temporary table when moving posts. This change is about capturing data and any usage will appear in a follow-up.
I did include a new column created_new_topic in the new table, so that it can be easily audited without having to compare destination topic created_at with moved_post records.

S3 itself and other S3-compatible providers do not
allow using an S3 custom endpoint and dualstack at
the same time, so this commit fixes that by not using
dualstack when the endpoint is present.
When we added direct S3 uploads to Discourse, which use
presigned URLs, we never took into account the dualstack
endpoints for IPv6 on S3.
This commit fixes the issue by using the dualstack endpoints
for presigned URLs and requests, which are used in the
get-presigned-put and batch-presign-urls endpoints used when
directly uploading to S3.
It also makes regular S3 requests for `put` and so on use
dualstack URLs. It doesn't seem like there is a downside to
doing this, but a bunch of specs needed to be updated to reflect this.
The normalize_emails setting makes it so that only canonical e-mails are considered for validation purposes. This means disallowing "plus addressing". For example, with this enabled, bob@discourse.org and bob+foo@discourse.org are considered the same address, and you can only sign up with one of them.
Currently this is disabled by default, leading to a lot of spam sign-ups. It's healthier to consider this an opt-out setting.

In the previous commit, we introduced the `page_view_legacy_total_reqs`
report. However this was not tested properly, and due to a typo
the report returned no data.
This commit fixes the issue and adds a spec to catch this.
This commit adds a new "Invite" link to the sidebar for all users who can invite to the site. Clicking the link opens the invite modal without changing the current route the user is on. Admins can customize the new link or remove it entirely if they wish by editing the sidebar section.

This commit removes the feature flag for the new /about page, enabling it for all sites, and removes the code for old the /about page.

Adds a new site setting and corresponding user preference
to disable smart lists. By default they are enabled, because
this is a better experience for most users. A small number of
users would prefer to not have this enabled.
Smart lists automatically append new items to each
list started in the composer when enter is pressed. If
enter is pressed on an empty list item, it is cleared.
This setting will be removed when the new composer is complete.
This commit allows themes to define up to 2 screenshots
in about.json. These should be paths within the theme's
git repository, images with a 1MB max file size and max width 3840x2160.
These screenshots will be downloaded and stored against a theme
field, and we will use these in the redesigned theme grid UI.
These screenshots will be updated when the theme is updated
in the same way the additional theme files are.
For now this is gated behind a hidden `theme_download_screenshots`
site setting, to allow us to test this on a small number of sites without
making other sites make unnecessary uploads.
**Future considerations:**
* We may want to have a specialized naming system for screenshots. E.g. having light.png/dark.png/some_palette.png
* We may want to show more than one screenshot for the theme, maybe in a carousel or reacting to dark mode or color palette changes
* We may want to allow clicking on the theme screenshot to show a lightbox
* We may want to make an optimized thumbnail image for the theme grid

When we added the Revise... option for posts/new topics
in the review queue, which sends a PM to the user, we used
`SystemMessage.create_from_system_user`, which always sends
the PM from the system user. However, this makes it so if the
user replies to the PM, which they are encouraged to do,
no one will see it unless they actively monitor the system inbox.
This commit changes it so `SystemMessage.create` is used,
which uses the `site_contact_username` and `site_contact_group`
site settings as participants in the sent PM. Then, when the
user replies, it will send to that inbox instead.
If `site_contact_username` is blank, the system user is used.
Background
When creating webhooks on a site without the Discourse Category Experts plugin installed, the category_experts_unapproved_event and category_experts_approved_event webhook events are getting automatically added to webhooks without a way to disable them.
The category_experts_unapproved_event and category_experts_approved_event webhook events are associated with the Discourse Category Experts plugin so I am moving these webhook events into the Category Experts plugin.
Changes
This PR deletes Category Experts plugin specific webhook event types added into core.
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.
In #29169 we added a NULLS NOT DISTINCT option to the unique index on problem_check_trackers. This is to enforce uniqueness even when the target is NULL. (Postgres considers all NULLs to be distinct by default.)
However, this only works in PG15. In PG13 it does nothing.
This commit adds a default dummy string value __NULL__ to target. Since it's a string, PG13 will be able to correctly identify duplicate records.
We're expecting the period param to be something that neatly coerces into a symbol. If we receive something like a nested parameter, this will blow up.
This commit raises an InvalidParameters exception in the case of a non-stringy period parameter.
Theme modifiers can now be defined as theme settings, this allows for
site operators to override behavior of theme modifiers.
New syntax is:
```
{
...
"modifiers": {
"modifier_name": {
"type": "setting",
"value": "setting_name"
}
}
}
```
This also introduces a new theme modifier for serialize_post_user_badges. Name of badge must match the name of the badge in the badges table. The client-side is updated to load this new data from the post-stream serializer.

There have been too many flaky tests as a result of leaking state in
Redis so it is easier to resolve them by ensuring we flush Redis'
database.
Locally on my machine, calling `Discourse.redis.flushdb` takes around
0.1ms which means this change will have very little impact on test
runtimes.
When a post has some replies, and the user click on the button to show them, we would load ALL the replies. This could lead to DoS if there were a very large number of replies.
This adds support for pagination to these post replies.

FIX: Duplicated parent posts
DEV: Query refactor
When running checks, we look to the existing problem check trackers and try to grab their ProblemCheck classes.
In some cases this is no longer in the problem check repository, e.g. when the check was part of a plugin that has been uninstalled.
In the case where the check was scheduled, this would lead to an error in one of the jobs
his is a new feature that lets admins dismiss notices from the dashboard. This helps with self-service in cases where a notice is "stuck", while we work on provisions to prevent "sticking" in the first place.
Anonymous users are "shadow" users created when an existing real user desires to post anonymously. This feature is off by default, but it can be enabled via the `allow_anonymous_posting` site setting. Those shadow users shouldn't be included in the users directory (`/u`).
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.

Currently, when the custom flag has the same name as the system flag (which is disabled) then it is not displayed. To fix the problem, `custom_` prefix as `name_key` is used to distinguish between the system and the custom flag.
I considered writing a migration to fix existing custom flags name key. However, at the end of migration I would need to run rails code to reset cache `Flag.reset_flag_settings!`. I decided to skip that step as it is a very edge case. If someone has the same flag name as the system flag, then all they have to do is edit the flag and click save.
In addition, I made 2 small fixes:
- edit flag title was missing translation;
- flag form UI was not showing that description is the required field.
The Report model spec was directly adding methods
to the Report class, which was causing errors in the
admin reports controller because it would look for
a translation of the report name (e.g. report_timeout_test)
like so `I18n.t("reports.#{type}.title")`, then get an
error because the translation did not exist.
This is fixed by using `Report.stubs` instead, which is
cleaned up after every test.
This commit adds a new `about_page_hidden_groups` setting to exclude members of specific groups from the admin and moderator lists on the /about page.

### UI changes
All of the UI changes described are gated behind the `use_legacy_pageviews`
site setting.
This commit changes the admin dashboard pageviews report to
use the "Consolidated Pageviews with Browser Detection" report
introduced in 2f2da72747 with
the following changes:
* The report name is changed to "Site traffic"
* The pageview count on the dashboard is counting only using the new method
* The old "Consolidated Pageviews" report is renamed as "Consolidated Legacy Pageviews"
* By default "known crawlers" and "other" sources of pageviews are hidden on the report
When `use_legacy_pageviews` is `true`, we do not show or allow running
the "Site traffic" report for admins. When `use_legacy_pageviews` is `false`,
we do not show or allow running the following legacy reports:
* consolidated_page_views
* consolidated_page_views_browser_detection
* page_view_anon_reqs
* page_view_logged_in_reqs
### Historical data changes
Also part of this change is that, since we introduced our new "Consolidated
Pageviews with Browser Detection" report, some admins are confused at either:
* The lack of data before a certain date , which didn’t exist before
we started collecting it
* Comparing this and the current "Consolidated Pageviews" report data,
which rolls up "Other Pageviews" into "Anonymous Browser" and so it
appears inaccurate
All pageview data in the new report before the date where the _first_
anon or logged in browser pageview was recorded is now hidden.
Currently, categories support designating only 1 group as a moderation group on the category. This commit removes the one group limitation and makes it possible to designate multiple groups as mods on a category.
Internal topic: t/124648.
This commit introduces a new hidden site setting: `group_pm_user_limit`, default to `1000` which will raise an error when attempting to create a PM target a large group.
