This improves the display of available tags in categories that are
configured to require at least (x) tags from a tag group.
There are two changes included:
- regular users will now see all the available tags in the required tag
group (previously they could see a max. of 5 tags)
- staff users will now see the tags from the required tag group when
the tag group contains more tags than the default limit (also set to 5)
Both changes only apply to the default query (i.e. no search terms).
It used to require SiteSetting.min_trust_level_to_allow_invite to
invite a user to a group, even if the user existed and the inviter was
a group owner.
Users who use encoded slugs on their sites sometimes run into 500 error when pasting a link to another topic in a post. The problem happens when generating a backward "reflection" link that would appear in a linked topic. Link URL restricted on the database level to 500 chars in length. At first glance, it should work since we have a restriction on topic title length.
But it doesn't work when a site uses encoded slugs, like here (take a look at the URL). The link to a topic, in this case, can be much longer than 500 characters.
By the way, an error happens only when generating a "reflection" link and doesn't happen with a direct link, we truncate that link. It works because, in this case, the original long link is still present in the post body and can be used for navigation. But we can't do the same for backward "reflection" links (without rewriting their implementation), the whole link must be saved to the database.
The simplest and cleanest solution will be just to remove the restriction on the database level. Abuse is impossible here since we are already protected by the restriction on topic title length. There aren’t performance benefits in using length-constrained columns in Postgres, in fact, length-constrained columns need a few extra CPU cycles to check the length when storing data.
When a topic is fully merged into another topic we close it and schedule its deleting. But, because of a bug, if the merged topic contains some moderator actions or small actions it won't be merged. This change fixes this problem.
An important note: in general, we don't want to close a topic after moving posts if it still contains some regular posts or whispers. But when we are moving posts to a private message we don't want the notice about it to be publicly visible. So we use whispers with action_code == 'split_topic' instead of small_actions in such cases and we should ignore this specific kind of whispers when decide if we should close the merged topic.
It was not clear that replace watched words can be used to replace text
with URLs. This introduces a new watched word type that makes it easier
to understand.

Refactors `TrustLevel` and moves translations from server to client
Additional changes:
* "staff" and "admin" wasn't translatable in site settings
* it replaces a concatenated string with a translation
* uses translation for trust levels in users_by_trust_level report
* adds a DB migration to rename keys of translation overrides affected by this commit
In Ember CLI, the vendor bundler includes Ember/jQuery, so this brings
our app closer to that configuration.
We have a couple pages (Reset Password / Confirm New Email) where we need
`ember_jquery` without vendor so the file still exists for those cases.
Some specs failed when `LOAD_PLUGINS=1` was set while migrating the test DB and the narrative-bot plugin disabled the `send_welcome_message` site setting.
On the web, we display only an excerpt in a monospace font and the rest
of the body is hidden under ellipsis. The email displayed both of them
and it did not use the same style. This commit leaves only the excerpt
in emails and makes it use a monospace font to display it.
When a topic is fully merged into another topic we close it. Now we want also to set a timer for deleting this topic. By default, stub topics will be deleted in 7 days. Users can change this period or disable auto-deleting by setting the period to 0.
This overhauls the user interface for the group email settings management, aiming to make it a lot easier to test the settings entered and confirm they are correct before proceeding. We do this by forcing the user to test the settings before they can be saved to the database. It also includes some quality of life improvements around setting up IMAP and SMTP for our first supported provider, GMail. This PR does not remove the old group email config, that will come in a subsequent PR. This is related to https://meta.discourse.org/t/imap-support-for-group-inboxes/160588 so read that if you would like more backstory.
### UI
Both site settings of `enable_imap` and `enable_smtp` must be true to test this. You must enable SMTP first to enable IMAP.
You can prefill the SMTP settings with GMail configuration. To proceed with saving these settings you must test them, which is handled by the EmailSettingsValidator.
If there is an issue with the configuration or credentials a meaningful error message should be shown.
IMAP settings must also be validated when IMAP is enabled, before saving.
When saving IMAP, we fetch the mailboxes for that account and populate them. This mailbox must be selected and saved for IMAP to work (the feature acts as though it is disabled until the mailbox is selected and saved):
### Database & Backend
This adds several columns to the Groups table. The purpose of this change is to make it much more explicit that SMTP/IMAP is enabled for a group, rather than relying on settings not being null. Also included is an UPDATE query to backfill these columns. These columns are automatically filled when updating the group.
For GMail, we now filter the mailboxes returned. This is so users cannot use a mailbox like Sent or Trash for syncing, which would generally be disastrous.
There is a new group endpoint for testing email settings. This may be useful in the future for other places in our UI, at which point it can be extracted to a more generic endpoint or module to be included.
The default `allow_title` column value is "true" for regular and leader badges. After we disable it in admin side the seed method enabling it again while upgrading. So we shouldn't do it for existing badges.
We need to be careful when stubbing this method. SessionController#become won't be defined if production is set to true, so if these tests run first, calling #sign_in will fail for other tests.
Calling sign_in before stubbing guarantees the method is defined because the check happens when the class is loaded.
Discourse shouldn't dynamically calculate the path of uploads and optimized images after a file has been stored on disk or S3. Otherwise it might calculate the wrong path if the SHA1 or extension stored in the database doesn't match the actual file path.
* FIX: Improve GitHub folder regexp in Onebox

change, the generic Onebox will handle the remaining URLs.

* FEATURE: Add Onebox for PR check runs

Previously we would retry push notifications indefinitely for all errors
except for ExpiredSubscription
Under certain conditions other persistent errors may arise such as a persistent
rate limit.
If we track more than 3 errors in a period of time longer than a day we will
delete the subscription
Also performs a bit of internal cleanup to ensure protected methods really
are private.
Admins can visit an approved queued topic from the review queue by clicking their title. We no longer store the created post and topic ids in the reviewable's payload object. Instead, we set the `topic_id` and `target_id` attributes.
Using 1 as the default value is confusing for some people as low-score flags are hidden unless staff uses the "(any)" priority filter. Let's change it to 0 and let every site adjust the setting to match their needs.

There are two methods which the server uses to verify an invite is being redeemed with a matching email:
1) The email token, supplied via a `?t=` parameter
2) The validity of the email, as provided by the auth provider
Only one of these needs to be true for the invite to be redeemed successfully on the server. The frontend logic was previously only checking (2). This commit updates the frontend logic to match the server.
This commit does not affect the invite redemption logic. It only affects the 'show' endpoint, and the UI.
The previous commits removed reviewables leading to a bad user
experience. This commit updates the status, replaces actions with a
message and greys out the reviewable.
This PR improves the UI of bulk select so that its context is applied to the Dismiss Unread and Dismiss New buttons. Regular users (not just staff) are now able to use topic bulk selection on the /new and /unread routes to perform these dismiss actions more selectively.
For Dismiss Unread, there is a new count in the text of the button and in the modal when one or more topic is selected with the bulk select checkboxes.
For Dismiss New, there is a count in the button text, and we have added functionality to the server side to accept an array of topic ids to dismiss new for, instead of always having to dismiss all new, the same as the bulk dismiss unread functionality. To clean things up, the `DismissTopics` service has been rolled into the `TopicsBulkAction` service.
We now also show the top Dismiss/Dismiss New button based on whether the bottom one is in the viewport, not just based on the topic count.
Based on feedback from Matt Haughey, we don't need to use so many words when describing a deleted topic or post.

We support two types of custom excerpts. It can be <div class="excerpt"> or <span class="excerpt">: b21f74060e/lib/excerpt_parser.rb (L120)
We also ignore max excerpt length for custom excerpts. But we forgot to process div when ignoring max length.
When editing the first post for the topic we do two AJAX requests
to two separate controllers in this order:
PUT /t/topic-name
PUT /posts/2489523
This causes two post revisor calls, which end up triggering the
:post_edited DiscourseEvent twice. This is then picked up and sent
as a WebHook event twice. However we do not need to send a :post_edited
webhook event if the first post is being edited and topic_changed is
true from the :post_edited DiscourseEvent, because a second event will
shortly come through for just the post.
See https://meta.discourse.org/t/post-webhook-fires-two-times-on-post-edited-for-first-post-in-a-topic/162408
Continued on from https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/10590
When uploads are created from the composer (editing or creating a post),
for sites with secure uploads enabled we assume security by default and
that new upload is set to secure. When the post is created, we then
check whether the post uploads _actually_ need to be secure and adjust
accordingly.
We were not doing this when revising a post, so when a new upload was
created when editing a post in a public topic, the secure status stayed
true erroneously causing issues with image previews, among other things.
Over the years we accrued many spelling mistakes in the code base.
This PR attempts to fix spelling mistakes and typos in all areas of the code that are extremely safe to change
- comments
- test descriptions
- other low risk areas
Under certain conditions admins would miss messages when posting action in
topics where they have permission.
This also fixes an error where we would sometimes explode when publishing to
an empty group.
Previously, we only precompiled the CSS for parent themes but not for
the child themes. As a result, the CSS for child themes were being
compiled during the first request which made the respond time high for
that request.
Watched words are always regular expressions, despite watched_words_
_regular_expressions being enabled or not. Internally, wildcard
characters are replaced with a regular expression that matches any non
whitespace character.
* FIX: Hide tag watched words if tagging is disabled
These 'autotag' words were shown even if tagging was disabled.
* FIX: Make autotag watched words case insensitive
This commit also fixes the bug when no tag was applied if no other tag
was already present.
Email change requests are never deleted no matter if they completed
successfully or not. The abandoned requests have the disadvantage of
showing up as unconfirmed emails in user's preferences page.
This is a recent regression introduced by https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/12937 which makes it so that when looking at a user profile that is not your own, specifically the category and tag notification settings, you would see your own settings instead of the target user. This is only a problem for admins because regular users cannot see these details for other users.
The issue was that we were using `scope` in the serializer, which refers to the current user, rather than using a scope for the target user via `Guardian.new(user)`.
However, on further inspection the `notification_levels_for` method for `TagUser` and `CategoryUser` did not actually need to be accepting an instance of Guardian, all that it was using it for was to check guardian.anonymous? which is just a fancy way of saying user.blank?. Changed this method to just accept a user instead and send the user in from the serializer.
* DEV: Allow wildcards in Oneboxer optional domain Site Settings
Allows a wildcard to be used as a subdomain on Oneboxer-related SiteSettings, e.g.:
- `force_get_hosts`
- `cache_onebox_response_body_domains`
- `force_custom_user_agent_hosts`
* DEV: fix typos
* FIX: Try doing a GET after receiving a 500 error from a HEAD
By default we try to do a `HEAD` requests. If this results in a 500 error response, we should try to do a `GET`
* DEV: `force_get_hosts` should be a hidden setting
* DEV: Oneboxer Strategies
Have an alternative oneboxing ‘strategy’ (i.e., set of options) to use when an attempt to generate a Onebox fails. Keep track of any non-default strategies that were used on a particular host, and use that strategy for that host in the future.
Initially, the alternate strategy (`force_get_and_ua`) forces the FinalDestination step of Oneboxing to do a `GET` rather than `HEAD`, and forces a custom user agent.
* DEV: change stubbed return code
The stubbed status code needs to be a value not recognized by FinalDestination
We have a few places in the code where we need to validate various email related settings, and will have another soon with the improved group email settings UI. This PR introduces a class which can validate POP3, IMAP, and SMTP credentials and also provide a friendly error message for issues if they must be presented to an end user.
This PR does not change any existing code to use the new service. I have added a TODO to change POP3 validation and the email test rake task to use the new validator post-release.
* FIX: Ensure the same email cannot be invited twice
When creating a new invite with a duplicated email, the old invite will
be updated and returned. When updating an invite with a duplicated email
address, an error will be returned.
* FIX: not Ember helper does not exist
* FIX: Sync can_invite_to_forum? and can_invite_to?
The two methods should perform the same basic set of checks, such as
check must_approve_users site setting.
Ideally, one of the methods would call the other one or be merged and
that will happen in the future.
* FIX: Show invite to group if user is group owner
* FIX: flaky specs after topic view custom filters
When ensuring TopicView class variables return to the original state it should use empty Hash instead of empty Array. That

* FIX: convert to string for topic view custom filter
Recalculating a ReviewableFlaggedPost's score after rejecting or ignoring it sets the score as 0, which means that we can't find them after reviewing. They don't surpass the minimum priority threshold and are hidden.
Additionally, we only want to use agreed flags when calculating the different priority thresholds.
Some emails coming in via the mail receiver can still end up
with bad encoding when trying to enqueue the job. This catches
the last encoding issue and forces iso-8559-1 and encodes to
UTF-8 to circumvent the issue.
Currently, when the target is not available we're returning the error message "`You are not permitted to view the requested resource`" which is not clear.
We have found when receiving and posting inbound emails to the handle_mail route, it is better to POST the payload as a base64 encoded string to avoid strange encoding issues. This introduces a new param of `email_encoded` and maintains the legacy param of email, showing a deprecation warning. Eventually the old param of `email` will be dropped and the new one `email_encoded` will be the only way to handle_mail.
The user may have changed their category or tag tracking settings since a topic was tracked/watched based on those settings in the past. In that case we need to alter the reason message we show them otherwise it is very confusing for the end user to be told they are tracking a topic because of a category, when they are no longer tracking that category.
For example: "You will see a count of new replies because you are tracking this category." becomes: "You will see a count of new replies because you were tracking this category in the past."
To do this, it was necessary to add tag and category tracking info to current user serializer. I improved the serializer code so it only does 3 SQL queries instead of 9 to get the tracking information for tags and categories for the current user.
Uncategorized was sometimes visible even if allow_uncategorized_topics
was false. This was especially happening on mobile, if at least one
topic was uncategorized.
* FIX: Link notification to first unread post
If a topic with a few posts was posted in a watched category or with a
watched tag, the created notification would always point to the last
post, instead of pointing to the first one.
The root cause is that the query that fetched the first unread post
uses 'TopicUser' records and those are not created by default for
user watching a category or tag. In this case, it should use the
'CategoryUser' or 'TagUser' records.
* DEV: Use named bind variables
nil was converted to "" and the matching regex would return [] and then be converted to nil with max usage.
Example exception:

lib/validators/quality_title_validator.rb:13:in `validate_each'
lib/topic_creator.rb:25:in `valid?'

* FEATURE: add support for like webhooks
Add support for like webhooks. Webhook events only send on user membership
in the defined webhook group filters.
This also fixes group webhook events, as before this was never used, and
the logic was not correct.
Sometimes, parts of the application pass in the locale as a string, not a symbol. This was causing the translate_accelerator to cache two versions of the locale separately: one cache for the symbol version, and one cache for the string version. For example, in a running production process:
```
irb(main):001:0> I18n.instance_variable_get(:@loaded_locales)
=> [:en, "en"]
```
This commit ensures the `locale` key is always converted to a symbol, and adds a spec to ensure the same locale cannot appear twice in `@loaded_locales`
If the associated page of a remote url passed to `TopicEmber.new(remote_url)` contained a malformed link like: `<a href="(http://foo.bar)">Baz</a>` it would raise an uncaught exception:

We really want to encourage all developers to use Ember CLI for local
development and testing. This will display an error page if they are not

To disable it, you can set `NO_EMBER_CLI=1` as an ENV variable
* FEATURE: Small improvements to the topic list embed
- Ability to wrap the list in a custom class so you can styles different
lists using specific CSS
- Adds a topic link to the thumbnail when using the complete template
* FIX: Be more strict about allowed chars in class name
This commit allows site admins to run theme tests in production via a new `/theme-qunit` route. When you visit `/theme-qunit`, you'll see a list of the themes/components installed on your site that have tests, and from there you can select a theme or component that you run its tests.
We also have a new rake task `themes:install_and_test` that can be used to install a list of themes/components on a temporary database and run the tests of the themes/components that are installed. This rake task can be useful when upgrading/deploying a Discourse instance to make sure that the installed themes/components are compatible with the new Discourse version being deployed, and if the tests fail you can abort the build/deploy process so you don't end up with a broken site.
This setting allows admin to de/activate automatic trimming of incoming email.
There are instances where it does wonders in trimming all the garbage content and other
instances where it's so bad that it trims the most important part of the email.
FIX: don't remove hidden content using the style attribute when converting HTML to Markdown.
The regexp used was doing more harm than good. It was way too broad.
FIX: properly elide signatures from emails sent with Front App.
This is fairly safe as Front App nicely identifies signatures in the HTML part.
If the "use_site_small_logo_as_system_avatar" setting is enabled, the site's small logo is displayed as the selected option by the avatar-selector. Choosing a different avatar disables the setting.
When the admin creates a new custom field they can specify if that field should be searchable or not.
That setting is taken into consideration for quick search results.
Adds a webhook to notify when a reviewable score is updated.
This is different from created or status changed as additional flags can
roll in and update the score without updating status. Useful for applications
looking to integrate in with Discourse's scores
For sites with login_required set to true, counting anonymous pageviews is
confusing. Requests to /login and other pages would make it look like
anonymous users have access to site's content.
This commit allows site admins to run theme tests in production via a new `/theme-qunit` route. When you visit `/theme-qunit`, you'll see a list of the themes/components installed on your site that have tests, and from there you can select a theme or component that you run its tests.

This filter hides reviewables with a score lower than the "reviewable_low_priority_threshold" setting. We only use reviewables that already met this threshold to calculate the Medium and High priority filters.
The old share modal used to host both share and invite functionality,
under two tabs. The new "Share Topic" modal can be used only for
sharing, but has a link to the invite modal.
Among the sharing methods, there is also "Notify" which points out
that existing users will simply be notified (this was not clear
before). Staff members can notify as many users as they want, but
regular users are restricted to one at a time, no more than
max_topic_invitations_per_day. The user will not receive another
notification if they have been notified of the same topic in past hour.
The "Create Invite" modal also suffered some changes: the two radio
boxes for selecting the type (invite or email) have been replaced by a
single checkbox (is email?) and then the two labels about emails have
been replaced by a single one, some fields were reordered and the
advanced options toggle was moved to the bottom right of the modal.
* DEV: Give a nicer error when `--proxy` argument is missing
* DEV: Improve Ember CLI's bootstrap logic
Instead of having Ember CLI know which URLs to proxy or not, have it try
the URL with a special header `HTTP_X_DISCOURSE_EMBER_CLI`. If present,
and Discourse thinks we should bootstrap the application, it will
instead stop rendering and return a HTTP HEAD with a response header
telling Ember CLI to bootstrap.
In other words, any time Rails would otherwise serve up the HTML for the
Ember app, it stops and says "no, you do it."
* DEV: Support asset filters by path using a new options object
Without this, Ember CLI's bootstrap would not get the assets it wants
because the path it was requesting was different than the browser path.
This adds an optional request header to fix it.
So far this is only used by the styleguide.
It used to check if an upload record exists, which is wrong because an
invalid upload record exists even if the upload was not created.
The other improvement is a better log message.
When a user flags a post with the “Something Else” option, a PM between
the user and the moderators group is created. If no moderators reply to
the PM, when the flag is handled at /review, an auto-reply is created
for the PM. However, the PM is not archived, it stays in the inbox.
This commit ensures that the PM is archived for moderator group when no
moderator has replied to that PM.
Note that this commit is also fixing various mistakes in emojis.
Some of them have been fixed manually in db.json/data.js/groups.json and will need to be fixed in emoji-db gem.
Previously watched words ignored topic titles when applying auto tagging rules.
Also copy has been improved to reflect how the system behaves.
The text hints that we are only watching first post now
* FEATURE: Review every post using the review queue.
If the `review_every_post` setting is enabled, posts created and edited by regular uses are sent to the review queue so staff can review them. We'll skip PMs and posts created or edited by TL4 or staff users.
Staff can choose to:
- Approve the post (nothing happens)
- Approve and restore the post (if deleted)
- Approve and unhide the post (if hidden)
- Reject and delete it
- Reject and keep deleted (if deleted)
- Reject and suspend the user
- Reject and silence the user
* Update config/locales/server.en.yml

Rails 6.1.3.1 deprecates a few API and has some internal changes that break our tests suite, so this commit fixes all the deprecations and errors and now Discourse should be fully compatible with Rails 6.1.3.1. We also have a new release of the rails_failover gem that's compatible with Rails 6.1.3.1.
There is a category setting that enforces 1 or more tags must be added to a topic from a specific tag group before creating it. This validation was not being run before the topic was being sent to a review queue for categories that have that setting enabled.
There was an existing validation in `TopicCreator` but it was not correct; it was only validating when the tags did _not_ exist and also only happened on `create`. I now run the validation in `TopicCreator.valid?`
I also improved the error message shown to the user when they have not added the tags required (showing the tag names from the tag group), and changed the composer tag selector to not show "optional" if there are N tags required from a certain group.
Headings with the exact same name generated exactly the same heading
names, which was invalid. This replaces the old code for generating
names for non-English headings which were using URI encode and resulted
in unreadable headings.
The server used to respond with a generic 'error, contact admin' message
which did not offer any hint what the error was. This happened even when
the error could be easily corrected by the user (for example, if they
chose a very common password).
Previously it would pluck 6 categories which the user had posted in, **then** order them. To select the **top 6** categories, we need to perform the ordering in the SQL query before the LIMIT
CookedPostProcessor used Loofah to parse the cooked content of a post
and Nokogiri to parse cooked Oneboxes. Even though Loofah is built on
top of Nokogiri, replacing an element from the cooked post (a Nokogiri
node) with a parsed onebox (a Loofah node) produced a strange result
which included XML namespaces. Removing the mix and using Loofah
to parse Oneboxes fixed the problem.
When invited by email, users will receive an invite URL which contains
a token. If that token is present when the invite is redeemed, their
account will be automatically activated.

This PR adds a new category setting which is a column in the `categories` table, `allow_unlimited_owner_edits_on_first_post`.
What this does is:
* Inside the `can_edit_post?` method of `PostGuardian`, if the current user editing a post is the owner of the post, it is the first post, and the topic's category has `allow_unlimited_owner_edits_on_first_post`, then we bypass the check for `LimitedEdit#edit_time_limit_expired?` on that post.
* Also, similar to wiki topics, in `PostActionNotifier#after_create_post_revision` we send a notification to all users watching a topic when the OP is edited in a topic with the category setting `allow_unlimited_owner_edits_on_first_post` enabled.
This is useful for forums where there is a Marketplace or similar category, where topics are created and then updated indefinitely by the OP rather than the OP making new topics or additional replies. In a way this acts similar to a wiki that only one person can edit.
When posts are moved from one topic to another, the `topic_user.bookmarked` column for all users in the new and the old topic needs to be resynced, for example because a user bookmarks post 12 in topic 1, then it is moved to topic 2, the topic_user record for topic 1 should no longer be bookmarked. A background job has been added to sync the column for a specified topic, or for no topic at all, which does it for all topics like the migration.
Also includes a migration that we have run in the past to fix bad data.

This commit allows themes and theme components to have QUnit tests. To add tests to your theme/component, create a top-level directory in your theme and name it `test`, and Discourse will save all the files in that directory (and its sub-directories) as "tests files" in the database. While tests files/directories are not required to be organized in a specific way, we recommend that you follow Discourse core's tests [structure](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/tree/master/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/tests).
Writing theme tests should be identical to writing plugins or core tests; all the `import` statements and APIs that you see in core (or plugins) to define/setup tests should just work in themes.
You do need a working Discourse install to run theme tests, and you have 2 ways to run theme tests:
* In the browser at the `/qunit` route. `/qunit` will run tests of all active themes/components as well as core and plugins. The `/qunit` now accepts a `theme_name` or `theme_url` params that you can use to run tests of a specific theme/component like so: `/qunit?theme_name=<your_theme_name>`.
* In the command line using the `themes:qunit` rake task. This take is meant to run tests of a single theme/component so you need to provide it with a theme name or URL like so: `bundle exec rake themes:qunit[name=<theme_name>]` or `bundle exec rake themes:qunit[url=<theme_url>]`.
There are some refactors to how Discourse processes JavaScript that comes with themes/components, and these refactors may break your JS customizations; see https://meta.discourse.org/t/upcoming-core-changes-that-may-break-some-themes-components-april-12/186252?u=osama for details on how you can check if your themes/components are affected and what you need to do to fix them.
This commit also improves theme error handling in Discourse. We will now be able to catch errors that occur when theme initializers are run and prevent them from breaking the site and other themes/components.
Previously certain images may lead to convert / identify to run for unreasonable
amounts of time
This adds a maximum amount of time these commands can run prior to forcing
them to stop
Previously we used the raw data indexed to generate blurbs even for cases
when Chinese/Korean/Japanese text was used.
This caused superfluous spaces to show up in excerpts.
We introduced a cap on the number of bookmarks the user can add in be145ccf2f. However this has caused unintended side effects; when the `jobs/scheduled/bookmark_reminder_notifications.rb` runs we get this error for users who already had more bookmarks than the limit:
> Job exception: Validation failed: Sorry, you have too many bookmarks, visit #{url}/my/activity/bookmarks to remove some.
This is because the `clear_reminder!` call was triggering a bookmark validation, which raised an error because the user already had to many, holding up other reminders.
This PR also adds `max_bookmarks_per_user` hidden site setting (default 2000). This replaces the BOOKMARK_LIMIT const so we can raise it for certain sites.
To add an extra layer of security, we sanitize settings before shipping them to the client. We don't sanitize those that have the "html" type.
The CookedPostProcessor already uses Loofah for sanitization, so I chose to also use it for this. I added it to our gemfile since we installed it as a transitive dependency.

There are some refactors to internal code that's responsible for processing themes/components in Discourse, most notably:
* `<script type="text/discourse-plugin">` tags are automatically converted to modules.
* The `theme-settings` service is removed in favor of a simple `lib` file responsible for managing theme settings. This was done to allow us to register/lookup theme settings very early in our Ember app lifecycle and because there was no reason for it to be an Ember service.
These refactors should 100% backward compatible and invisible to theme developers.
In Improve invite system, a newly created link only invite cannot
be retrieved via API with the invitee's email once created. A new
route, /invites/retrieve, is introduced to fetch an already
created invite by email address.
This feature used to be controlled by two site settings
enable_personal_email_messages and min_trust_to_send_email_messages.
I removed enable_personal_email_messages and unhide
min_trust_to_send_email_messages to simplify the process of
enabling / disabling this feature.
* FEATURE: Cache successful HTTP GET requests during Oneboxing
Some oneboxes may fail if when making excessive and/or odd requests against the target domains. This change provides a simple mechanism to cache the results of succesful GET requests as part of the oneboxing process, with the goal of reducing repeated requests and ultimately improving the rate of successful oneboxing.
To enable:
Set `SiteSetting.cache_onebox_response_body` to `true`
Add the domains you’re interesting in caching to `SiteSetting. cache_onebox_response_body_domains` e.g. `example.com|example.org|example.net`
Optionally set `SiteSetting.cache_onebox_user_agent` to a user agent string of your choice to use when making requests against domains in the above list.
* FIX: Swap order of duration and value in redis call
The correct order for `setex` arguments is `key`, `duration`, and `value`.
Duration and value had been flipped, however the code would not have thrown an error because we were caching the value of `1.day.to_i` for a period of 1 seconds… The intention appears to be to set a value of 1 (purely as a flag) for a period of 1 day.
When bulk inviting, the uploaded CSV file may contain wrong values for
the user fields. This tries to automatically correct them by finding
the most similar option (by ignoring the case).
For 'local logins', the UX for staged users is designed to be identical to unregistered users. However, staged users logging in via external auth were being automatically unstaged, and skipping the registration/invite flow. In the past this made sense because the registration/invite flows didn't work perfectly with external auth. Now, both registration and invites work well with external auth, so it's best to leave the 'unstage' logic to those endpoints.
This problem was particularly noticeable when using the 'bulk invite' feature to invite users with pre-configured User Fields. In that situation, staged user accounts are used to preserve the user field data.
It makes SimpleCov work with turbo_rspec and uses the default Rails
configuration (with some changes) to groups files by their type
(models, controllers, etc).
Admins can use bulk invites to pre-populate user fields. The imported
CSV file must have a header with "email" column (first position) and
names of the user fields (exact match).
Under the hood, the bulk invite will create staged users and populate
the user fields of those.
Because bookmarks have both topic and post ID, when the post was moved into another topic the bookmark was still attached to the post but did not show in the UI. This PR makes it so the all topic IDs for bookmarks attached to a post are updated when a post is moved.
Also included is a migration to fix affected records (e.g. on Meta there are 20 affected records).
See: https://meta.discourse.org/t/improved-bookmarks-with-reminders/144542/203
This is called in DiscourseTagging.tag_topic_by_names only after
all the validations etc. have been passed, and after topic.tags = X
has been called (because this is when the associations are created/
destroyed). The event has the topic, then a second param with the
old and new tag names in arrays for easy inspection.
I was adding specs to ensure that post actions and uploads are removed for permanently deleted posts.
I noticed that post revisions were not permanently destroyed. I added a migration to fix old data.
The instance of the PostRevisor is passed to the post_edited
event. It is useful to know what has happened to the topic in
this event (we already pass a boolean for topic_changed? but that
is not so helpful by itself).
When overriding the translation for i18n keys used in user notifications
like user_notifications.reply_by_email, errors were returned for
valid interpolation keys. Keys like topic_title_url_encoded are
supported, so no error should be raised.

* DEV: upgrade mini_sql
Even though we are not planning on using this quite yet, mini_sql now supports
prepared statements.
Would like this upgrade merged so we can do some benchmarking.
Note, this will not work with pg_bouncer, but sites that are not using it
may benefit from the feature.
* implement multisite friendly prepared statements
Fixes `Rack::Lint::LintError: a header value must be a String, but the value of 'Retry-After' is a Integer`. (see: 14a236b4f0/lib/rack/lint.rb (L676))
I found it when I got flooded by those warning a while back in a test-related accident 😉 (ember CLI tests were hitting a local rails server at a fast rate)
Find & Replace and Autotag watched words were not completely exported
and import did not work with these either. This commit changes the
input and output format to CSV, which allows for a secondary column.
This change is backwards compatible because a CSV file with only one
column has one value per line.
browser-update script does not work correctly in some very old browsers
because the contents of <noscript> is not accessible in JavaScript.
For these browsers, the server can display the crawler page and add the
browser update notice.
Simply loading the browser-update script in the crawler view is not a
solution because that means all crawlers will also see it.
The regular expression to detect private IP addresses did not always detect them successfully.
Changed to use ruby's in-built IPAddr.new(ip_address).private? method instead
which does the same thing but covers all cases.
Users can now pin bookmarks from their bookmark list. This will anchor the bookmark to the top of the list, and show a pin icon next to it. This also applies in the nav bookmarks panel. If there are multiple pinned bookmarks they sort by last updated order.
We currently make an AJAX request every time someone opens the hamburger menu, resulting in a forbidden response when a user can't see the review queue.
We previously included this option conditionally when users were replying
or creating a new topic while they had content already in the composer.
This makes the dialog always include three buttons:
- Close and discard
- Close and save draft for later
- Keed editing
This also changes how the backend notifies the frontend when there is
a current draft topic. This is now sent via the `has_topic_draft`
property in the current user serializer.
This PR allows invitations to be used when the DiscourseConnect SSO is enabled for a site (`enable_discourse_connect`) and local logins are disabled. Previously invites could not be accepted with SSO enabled simply because we did not have the code paths to handle that logic.
The invitation methods that are supported include:
* Inviting people to groups via email address
* Inviting people to topics via email address
* Using invitation links generated by the Invite Users UI in the /my/invited/pending route
The flow works like this:
1. User visits an invite URL
2. The normal invitation validations (redemptions/expiry) happen at that point
3. We store the invite key in a secure session
4. The user clicks "Accept Invitation and Continue" (see below)
5. The user is redirected to /session/sso then to the SSO provider URL then back to /session/sso_login
6. We retrieve the invite based on the invite key in secure session. We revalidate the invitation. We show an error to the user if it is not valid. An additional check here for invites with an email specified is to check the SSO email matches the invite email
7. If the invite is OK we create the user via the normal SSO methods
8. We redeem the invite and activate the user. We clear the invite key in secure session.
9. If the invite had a topic we redirect the user there, otherwise we redirect to /
Note that we decided for SSO-based invites the `must_approve_users` site setting is ignored, because the invite is a form of pre-approval, and because regular non-staff users cannot send out email invites or generally invite to the forum in this case.
Also deletes some group invite checks as per https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/12353
We override the default replacements rule to no longer replace "(c)", "(p)", and "(p)". Additionally, we merged the custom arrows rule into the replacement function.
* FIX: Be able to handle long file extensions
Some applications have really long file extensions, but if we truncate
them weird behavior ensues.
This commit changes the file extension size from 10 characters to 255
characters instead.
See:
https://meta.discourse.org/t/182824
* Keep truncation at 10, but allow uppercase and dashes
Component SCSS compilation should use the current theme's SCSS color
variables as a fallback before using the default core colors.
This is mostly a backwards-compatibility fix, new themes and components
should use CSS custom properties, which offer better support for on-the-fly
color scheme changes (dark mode support, etc.).
The user mailing list mode continued to be silently enabled and
UserEmail job checked just that ignoring site setting
disable_mailing_list_mode.
An additional migrate was added to set disable_mailing_list_mode
to false if any users enabled the mailing list mode already.
Currently the process of adding a custom image to badge is quite clunky; you have to upload your image to a topic, and then copy the image URL and pasting it in a text field. Besides being clucky, if the topic or post that contains the image is deleted, the image will be garbage-collected in a few days and the badge will lose the image because the application is not that the image is referenced by a badge.
This commit improves that by adding a proper image uploader widget for badge images.
It was used both when inviting from a topic page and when creating
invites with "Send to topic on first login", while it should be used
only in the former case.
Corrects flaky spec
Previously we were only clearing state after our spec ran, leaving possible
edge cases where `Discourse.plugins` had data.
Clean-up source of the plugin leak
1 pop was not enough to clear the plugin, plus make specs a bit more
deliberate
The cluster name can be configured by setting the `DISCOURSE_CLUSTER_NAME` environment variable. If set, you can then call /srv/status with a `?cluster=` parameter. If the cluster does not match, an error will be returned. This is useful if you need a load balancer to be able to verify the identity, as well as the presence, of an application container.
When creating a PM target_usernames has been deprecated for some time
now but the api docs have yet to reflect this.
The api docs now specify to use target_recipients.
See: eef21625c6
When transitioning from a tag topic list e.g. /tag/alerts
to the / route the topic list was not reloaded because the
same preload key was used for both lists (topic_list_latest).
The topic list was only reloaded when clicking on the / route
a second time because then it is forced to reload.
In the topic list adapter, we call `PreloadStore.getAndRemove` to
get the topic lists:
534777f5fd/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/app/adapters/topic-list.js (L34-L41)
Now instead of both / and /tag/alerts sharing the same preload
key of `topic_list_latest`, the tag has a key of `topic_list_tag/alerts/l/latest`
Staff can send a post to the review queue by clicking the "Flag Post" button next to "Take Action...". Clicking it flags the post using the "Notify moderators" score type and hides it. A custom message will be sent to the user.
This is not recommended. But if you have other protections in place for CSRF mitigation, you may wish to disable Discourse's implementation. This site setting is not visible in the UI, and must be changed via the console.
It has been observed that doing a HEAD against an Amazon store URL may result in a 405 error being returned.
Skipping the HEAD request may result in an improved oneboxing experience when requesting these URLs.
Onebox content may only be resolved during the process_post job. Onebox content could change the content of the excerpt, so we need to make sure the excerpt is updated accordingly.
The user and an admin could create multiple email change requests for
the same user. If any of the requests was validated and it became
primary, the other request could not be deleted anymore.
* FEATURE: allow category group moderators to pin/unpin topics
Category group moderators should be able to pin/unpin any topics within a category where they have appropraite category group moderator permissions.
Previously, we blocked search engines in tag pages since they may get marked as a duplicate content.
* DEV: block tag inner pages from search engines crawling.
Prior to this change, we had weights for very_high, high, low and
very_low. This means there were 4 weights to tweak and what weights to
use for `very_high/high` and `very_low/low` pair was hard to explain.
This change makes it such that `very_high` search priority will always
ensure that the posts are ranked at the top while `very_low` search
priority will ensure that the posts are ranked at the very bottom.
* FIX: Do not show expired invites under Pending tab
* DEV: Controller action was renamed in previous commit
* FEATURE: Add 'Expired' tab to invites
* FEATURE: Refresh model after removing expired invites
* FEATURE: Do not immediately add invite to the list
Opening the 'create-invite' modal used to automatically generate an
invite to reserve an invite link. If the user did not save it and
closed the modal, the invite would be destroyed. This operations caused
the invite list to change in the background and confuse users.
* FEATURE: Sort redeemed users by creation time
* UX: Improve show / hide advanced options link
* FIX: Show redeemed users even if invites were trashed
* UX: Change modal title when editing invite
* UX: Remove Get Link button
Users can get it from the edit modal
* FEATURE: Add limit for invite links generated by regular users
* FEATURE: Add option to skip email
* UX: Show better error messages
* FIX: Show "Invited by" even if invite was trashed

The Guardian object memoizes a list of allowed user fields. Normally this is fine because Guardian objects only persist for a single request. However, the WebHook class was memoizing a guardian at the class level. This meant that an app restart was required for changes to be reflected. Plus, the Guardian was being shared across all sites in a multisite instance.
Initializing a guardian is cheap, so we can manage without memoization here.
Mailing list mode can generate significant email volume, especially on sites with a large user base. Disable mailing list mode via site settings by default so sites don't experience an unexpectedly large cost from outgoing email.
The urls that we generate for mobile post notifications don't take into
account the subfolder url if a site happens to have one configured. When
this happens when you tap on a new mobile notification it takes you to
a url that doesn't work because it is missing the subfolder portion.
I honestly think this should be handled in the Post model like we do
with the Topic model. `Post.url` should know how to handle subfolder
installs, but that seemed like a very risky change because there are
lots of other places in the codebase where we tack on the base_path and
I didn't want to risk duplicating it.
I also found a small typo in the topics controller spec.
A missing email when accepting an invite link does not make sense so we
should make it a required param which helps to catch bugs in our test
suite and also prevent potential bugs in our code base when the code
trips on a `nil` email.
The user interface has been reorganized to show email and link invites
in the same screen. Staff has more control over creating and updating
invites. Bulk invite has also been improved with better explanations.
On the server side, many code paths for email and link invites have
been merged to avoid duplicated logic. The API returns better responses
with more appropriate HTTP status codes.
When `PostCreator` creates a new topic it loads the `allowed_groups` of the topic. `Fabricate` doesn't do that and that's why the existing spec worked even though it should have failed, because `PostAlerter#notify_group_summary` didn't create a notification for a non-fabricated topic.
`Topic#invite_group` added a new `TopicAllowedGroup` record without reloading `Topic.allowed_groups`. A subsequent call to `PostAlerter#notify_group_summary` didn't work because it didn't find the invited group in the topic's `allowed_groups` association.
Fix for: https://meta.discourse.org/t/our-components-stop-working/181580?u=osama.
This fixes an old hidden bug that was exposed in cf0192018e. The bug is that we call the `Stylesheet::Manager.stylesheet_details` method with the `target` arg as `:mobile_theme` when we want to retrieve a theme component's mobile CSS. The problem is that this `target` value will at some point be looked up in the `Theme.targets` enum which doesn't have a `:mobile_theme` key, instead it has `:mobile` key.
This commit adds a step that removes the `_theme` suffix in the `Theme.list_baked_fields` method to fix this problem.
We were sending 2 emails for user silencing if a message was provided in the UI. Also always send email for user silence and user suspend with reason regardless of whether message provided.
SVG files can have dimensions expressed in inches, centimeters, etc., which may lead to the dimensions being misinterpreted (e.g. “8in” ends up as 8 pixels).
If the file type is `svg`, ask ImageMagick to work out what size the SVG file should be rendered on screen.
NOTE: The `pencil.svg` file was obtained from https://freesvg.org/1534028868, which has placed the file in to the public domain.
Unactivated users that have posts cannot be deleted so we shouldn't
include them in the initial query to try and purge them. Otherwise we
are just loading up sidekiq with pointless work to be doing every day.
Without this change if there are 201 unactivated users to purge, but the
first 200 have posts, the 201st user will never be deleted even though
it is the only user that doesn't have a post and is actually the one
that should be deleted.
This switches to outputting a separate file for each theme component CSS
asset. We have separate CSS plugin files, separate JS files
(for plugins/themes/components), it makes sense to do the same for
component CSS assets.
Benefits:
- easier debugging
- fixes a regression with theme component sourcemaps
- changes to theme components are updated individually
With HTTP/2, there is also no performance downside to having additional
files in the initial request.
- removes the option from site settings
- deletes the site setting on existing sites that have it
- marks posts using emojis as requiring a rebake
Note that the actual image files are not removed here, the plan is to
remove them in a few weeks/months (when presumably the rebaking of old
posts has been completed).

The API now accepts an array called "ids" to select specific items. This parameter is not present on the UI.
Example usage: "yoursite.com/review.json?ids[]=1&ids[]=2"
`Onebox.preview` can return 0-to-n errors, where the errors are missing OpenGraph attributes (e.g. title, description, image, etc.). If any of these attributes are missing, we construct an error message and attach it to the Oneboxer preview HTML. The error message is something like:
“Sorry, we were unable to generate a preview for this web page, because the following oEmbed / OpenGraph tags could not be found: description, image”
However, if the only missing tag is `image` we don’t need to display the error, as we have enough other data (title, description, etc.) to construct a useful/complete Onebox.
though other participants are not in allowed list)
If you create an allowlist of users who can PM you, and use the function
“Only specific users can send me private messages”, then you can’t be
added to group messages unless everyone in that message is already in
your allow list.
This commit allows user to be added to a group message even when other
participants are not in allowed list
This commit includes other various improvements to watched words.
auto_silence_first_post_regex site setting was removed because it overlapped
with 'require approval' watched words.
If this test ran before the new SiteSettingsController spec from 8cd7c9b259, it would fail the run. We need to `dup` the array before calling `.clear` on the original
Previously we were checking truthiness in some places, and `== true` in
others. That can lead to some inconsistent UX where the interface says
the email is valid, but account creation fails.
This commit ensures values are boolean when set, and raises an error for
other value types.
If this safety check is triggered, it means the specific auth provider
needs to be updated to pass booleans.
* FIX: Reduce the time_read threshold to one minute.
Five minutes is too much and could fill the queue with false positives.

When running an import script there are many site settings that are
changed but we reset them back to where they were originally before the
import. However, there are two settings that we don't roll back:
```
purge_unactivated_users_grace_period_days
purge_deleted_uploads_grace_period_days
```
which could have some unintended consequences.
My first question is do we *really* have to change these settings? I'm
not a huge fan of changing someones settings without them really knowing
they were changed.
If we really do have to change these settings here is my proposed PR
where we don't alter the `purge_unactivated_users_grace_period_days` if
it has been disabled.
As I'm writing this another change we could make is that we don't change
either of these site settings if we detect that they aren't set to the
default values.
The drive behind this PR is that there is a discourse instance which
relies on staged users as part of their workflow and this setting was
changed by accident via the import script causing users to be deleted
that shouldn't have been.
Completing the discobot tutorial gives you ~3m of reading time, so we set the limit at 5m. Additionally, we use an "OR" clause to cover the case when you just scroll through a single topic.
Version 2.8 brings some changes to how address fields are handled and
this commits updates that and should also include a fix which handles
encoded attachment filenames.
The fork contains a bugfix to correctly decode mail attachments.
NewPostManager’s `post_needs_approval_in_its_category` method should allow category group moderators to create topics/reply to topics that where they have appropraite permissions.
(ie, if a user has permission to moderate a post, any posts made by them shouldn’t be sent to moderation)
Some users somehow manage to keep a topic open for a very long time that it causes the post read time to exceed the max integer value (2^31 - 1) which causes errors when we try to update the read time in the database to values above the integer limit.
This PR will cap posts read time at 2^31 - 1 to prevent these errors.
The bug was mentioned on meta: https://meta.discourse.org/t/pressing-dismiss-new-doesnt-clear-new-topics/179858
Problem is that sometimes the user has TopicUser records with `last_read_post_number` set as NULL. In that case, the topic is still "new" to them and should be dismissed when they click dismiss button.
In addition, I added that condition to post_migration and bumped the number to fix existing records. Migration is written to be idempotent so it will make no harm to already deployed instances.
Adding a scope from a plugin was broken. This commit fixes it and adds a test.
It also documents the instance method and renames the serialized "id" attribute to "scope_id" to avoid a conflict when the scope also has a parameter with the same name.
