Before, whispers were only available for staff members.
Config has been changed to allow to configure privileged groups with access to whispers. Post migration was added to move from the old setting into the new one.
I considered having a boolean column `whisperer` on user model similar to `admin/moderator` for performance reason. Finally, I decided to keep looking for groups as queries are only done for current user and didn't notice any N+1 queries.
This PR introduces a new hidden site setting that allows admins to display a splash screen while site assets load.
The splash screen can be enabled via the `splash_screen` hidden site setting.
This is what the splash screen currently looks like

Once site assets load, the splash screen is automatically removed.
To control the loading text that shows in the splash screen, you can change the preloader_text translation string in admin > customize > text
Now that we've switched to Ember CLI, these things are no longer used.
- These sprockets manifests are superceded by the assets generated by ember cli
- These vendored scripts are now fetched by ember-auto-import at compile time
At some point in the past we decided to rename the 'regular' notification state of topics/categories to 'normal'. However, some UI copy was missed when the initial renaming was done so this commit changes the spots that were missed to the new name.
Following the Rails 7 upgrade, the `DISCOURSE_SMTP_ENABLE_START_TLS`
setting doesn’t work anymore. This is because Rails upgraded the
`net-smtp` gem to the 0.3.1 version which enables `starttls` by default.
The `mail` gem doesn’t support this new behavior yet and doesn’t know
how to disable TLS. This should be fixed in an upcoming release.
Meanwhile applying this patch allows us to get back the previous
behavior which is expected by many.
This commit introduces a new site setting: `block_hotlinked_media`. When enabled, all attempts to hotlink media (images, videos, and audio) will fail, and be replaced with a linked placeholder. Exceptions to the rule can be added via `block_hotlinked_media_exceptions`.
`download_remote_image_to_local` can be used alongside this feature. In that case, hotlinked images will be blocked immediately when the post is created, but will then be replaced with the downloaded version a few seconds later.
This implementation is purely server-side, and does not impact the composer preview.
Technically, there are two stages to this feature:
1. `PrettyText.sanitize_hotlinked_media` is called during `PrettyText.cook`, and whenever new images are introduced by Onebox. It will iterate over all src/srcset attributes in the post HTML and check if they're allowed. If not, the attributes will be removed and replaced with a `data-blocked-hotlinked-src(set)` attribute
2. In the `CookedPostProcessor`, we iterate over all `data-blocked-hotlinked-src(set)` attributes and check whether we have a downloaded version of the media. If yes, we update the src to use the downloaded version. If not, the entire media element is replaced with a placeholder. The placeholder is labelled 'external media', and is a link to the offsite media.
Twitter does not allow SVGs to be used for twitter:image
metadata (see https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-for-websites/cards/overview/markup)
so we should fall back to the site logo if the image option
provided to `crawlable_meta_data` or SiteSetting.site_twitter_summary_large_image_url
is an SVG, and do not add the meta tag for twitter:image at all
if the site logo is an SVG.
Previously we hardcoded the DOWNLOAD_URL_EXPIRES_AFTER_SECONDS const
inside S3Helper to be 5 minutes (300 seconds). For various reasons,
some hosted sites may need this to be longer for other integrations.
The maximum expiry time for presigned URLs is 1 week (which is
604800 seconds), so that has been added as a validation on the
setting as well. The setting is hidden because 99% of the time
it should not be changed.
This improves the bookmark-icon title to be more like the
post bookmark icons, to include the special formatted date
as well as the name of the bookmark.
Meta topic: https://meta.discourse.org/t/prevent-to-linkify-when-there-is-a-redirect/226964/2?u=osama.
This commit adds a new site setting `block_onebox_on_redirect` (default off) for blocking oneboxes (full and inline) of URLs that redirect. Note that an initial http → https redirect is still allowed if the redirect location is identical to the source (minus the scheme of course). For example, if a user includes a link to `http://example.com/page` and the link resolves to `https://example.com/page`, then the link will onebox (assuming it can be oneboxed) even if the setting is enabled. The reason for this is a user may type out a URL (i.e. the URL is short and memorizable) with http and since a lot of sites support TLS with http traffic automatically redirected to https, so we should still allow the URL to onebox.
This commit migrates all bookmarks to be polymorphic (using the
bookmarkable_id and bookmarkable_type) columns. It also deletes
all the old code guarded behind the use_polymorphic_bookmarks setting
and changes that setting to true for all sites and by default for
the sake of plugins.
No data is deleted in the migrations, the old post_id and for_topic
columns for bookmarks will be dropped later on.
The title had to be added both on the 404 page generated by the server
side, displayed when the user reaches a bad page directly and the 404
page rendered by Ember when a user reaches a missing topic while
navigating the forum.
