Due to some changes we started notifying via push notifications on other
families of notifications. There are a total of about 30 or so possible
notification you could get, some can be pushed.
This fallback means that if for any reason we are unable to find an icon
for a push notification we just fallback to the Discourse logo.
Also go with a simple reply icon for watching first post.
Note, that in production `image_url` can return an exception if an image is
missing. This is not the case in test / development.
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.
This makes it easier to find PMs involving a particular user, for
example by searching for `in:messages thisUser` (previously, that query
would only return results in posts where `thisUser` was in the post body).
- Only validate if custom_fields are loaded, so that we don't trigger a db query
- Only validate public user fields, not all custom_fields
This commit also reverts the unrelated spec changes in ba148e08, which were required to work around these issues
7a284164 previously switched the UserDestroyer to use find_each when iterating over UserHistory records. Unfortunately, since this logic is wrapped in a transaction, this didn't actually solve the memory usage problem. ActiveRecord maintains references to all modified models within a transaction.
This commit updates the logic to use a single SQL query, rather than updating models one-by-one
Currently the only way to allow tagging on pms is to use the `allow_staff_to_tag_pms` site setting. We are removing that site setting and replacing it with `pm_tags_allowed_for_groups` which will allow for non staff tagging. It will be group based permissions instead of requiring the user to be staff.
If the existing value of `allow_staff_to_tag_pms` is `true` then we include the `staff` groups as a default for `pm_tags_allowed_for_groups`.
Currently we don’t apply watched words to custom user fields nor user
profile fields.
This led to users being able to use blocked words in their bio, location
or some custom user fields.
This patch addresses this issue by adding some validations so it’s not
possible anymore to save the User model or the UserProfile model if they
contain blocked words.
A bit of a mixed bag, this addresses several edge areas of bookmarks and makes them compatible with polymorphic bookmarks (hidden behind the `use_polymorphic_bookmarks` site setting). The main ones are:
* ExportUserArchive compatibility
* SyncTopicUserBookmarked job compatibility
* Sending different notifications for the bookmark reminders based on the bookmarkable type
* Import scripts compatibility
* BookmarkReminderNotificationHandler compatibility
This PR also refactors the `register_bookmarkable` API so it accepts a class descended from a `BaseBookmarkable` class instead. This was done because we kept having to add more and more lambdas/properties inline and it was very messy, so a factory pattern is cleaner. The classes can be tested independently as well.
Some later PRs will address some other areas like the discourse narrative bot, advanced search, reports, and the .ics endpoint for bookmarks.
This commit improves the logic for rolling up IPv4 screened IP
addresses and extending it for IPv6. IPv4 addresses will roll up only
up to /24. IPv6 can rollup to /48 at most. The log message that is
generated contains the list of original IPs and new subnet.
All users are members of the EVERYONE group, but this group is special and
is omitted from the group_users table. When checking permission we need to
make sure we also add a bypass.
This also fixes a very buggy test in post_alerter, it was confirming the
broken behavior due to fabricator flow.
When it defined the tag group the everyone group automatically had full access
then the additional permission fabricated just added one more group. After
fix was made to code the test started failing. Fabricators can be risky.
When emailing a group inbox and including other support-type
emails (or even just regular ones with autoresponders) in the
CC field, each automated reply to the group inbox triggered
more emails to be sent out to all CC addresses to notify them
of the new reply, which in turn caused more automated emails
to be sent to the group inbox.
This commit fixes the issue by preventing any emails being sent
by the PostAlerter when the new post has an incoming email record
which is_auto_generated, which we detect in Email::Receiver.
Fixes the issue where making a user x as owner of a post doesn't
cause the concerned topic to be listed in new owner's `My Posts`

The search_ignore_accents site setting can be used to make the search
indexer remove the accents before indexing the content. The unaccent
function from PostgreSQL is better than Ruby's unicode_normalize(:nfkd).
It's very easy to forget to add `require 'rails_helper'` at the top of every core/plugin spec file, and omissions can cause some very confusing/sporadic errors.
By setting this flag in `.rspec`, we can remove the need for `require 'rails_helper'` entirely.
This allows text editors to use correct syntax coloring for the heredoc sections.
Heredoc tag names we use:

We added this constraint in 5bd55acf83
but it is causing problems in hosted sites and is catching the
issue too far down the line. This commit removes the constraint
for now, and also fixes an issue found with PostDestroyer
which wasn't using the UserStatCountUpdater when updating post_count
and thus was causing negative numbers to occur.
Breakdown of fixes in this commit:
* `UserStat#topic_count` was not updated when visibility of
the topic changed.
* `UserStat#post_count` was not updated when post was hidden or
unhidden.
* `TopicConverter` was only incrementing or decrementing the counts by 1
even if a user has multiple posts in the topic.
* The commit turns off the verbose logging by default as it is just
noise to normal users who are not debugging this problem.
In ab5361d69a, we rescue from the PG error
but the transaction is already aborted causing any DB query after to
fail. As such, we avoid triggering the error in the first place by
checking that we would not be insertin a negative number into the
counter cache.
Follow-up to ab5361d69a
There are still spots in the code base which results in us trying to turn the post and topic count negative. However,
we have a job that runs on a daily basis which will correct the count. Therefore, avoid raising an error for now
and log the exception instead.
Ensures that `UserStat#post_count` and `UserStat#topic_count` does not
go below 0. When it does like it did now, we tend to have bugs in our
code since we're usually coding with the assumption that the count isn't
negative.
In order to support the constraints, our post and topic fabricators in
tests will now automatically increment the count for the respective
user's `UserStat` as well. We have to do this because our fabricators
bypasss `PostCreator` which holds the responsibility of updating `UserStat#post_count` and
`UserStat#topic_count`.
This commit fixes a bug where we our `HTMLScrubber` was only searching
for emoji img tags which contains only the "emoji" class. However, our emoji image tags
may contain more than just the "emoji" class like "only-emoji" when an
emoji exists by itself on a single line.
* FIX: Tag watching for everyone tag groups
Tags in tag groups that have permissions set to everyone were not able
to be saved correctly. A user on their preferences page would mark the
tags that they wanted to save, but the watched_tags in the response
would be empty. This did not apply to admins, just regular users. Even
though the watched tags were being saved in the db, the user serializer
response was filtering them out. When a user refreshed their preferences
pages it would show zero watched tags.
This appears to be a regression introduced by:
0f598ca51e
The issue that needed to be fixed is that we don't track the "everyone"
group (which has an id of 0) in the group_users table. This is because
everyone has access to it, so why fill a row for every single user, that
would be a lot. The fix was to update the query to include tag groups
that had permissions set to the "everyone" group (group_id 0).
I also added another check to the existing spec for updating
watched tags for tags that aren't in a tag group so that it checks the
response body. I then added a new spec which updates watched tags for
tags in a tag group which has permissions set to everyone.
* Resolve failing tests
Improve SQL query syntax for including the "everyone" group with the id
of 0.
This commit also fixes a few failing tests that were introduced. It
turns out that the Fabrication of the Tag Group Permissions was faulty.
What happens when creating the tag groups without any permissions is
that it sets the permission to "everyone". If we then follow up with
fabricating a tag group permission on the tag group instead of having a
single permission it will have 2 (everyone + the group specified)! We
don't want this. To fix it I removed the fabrication of tag group
permissions and just set the permissions directly when creating the tag
group.
* Use response.parsed_body instead of JSON.parse
You can add callbacks that get called before updating an already consolidated notification or creating a consolidated one.
Instances of this rule can add callbacks to access the old notifications about to be destroyed or the consolidated one and add additional data inside the data hash versus having to execute extra queries when adding this logic inside the `set_mutations` block.
I plan to use this in an upcoming discourse-reactions PR, where I want to like a post without notifying the user, so I can instead create a reaction notification.
Additionally, we decouple the a11y attributes from the icon itself, which will let us extend the widget's icon without losing them.
We previously used ConsolidateNotifications with a threshold of 1 to re-use an existing notification and bump it to the top instead of creating a new one. It produces some jumpiness in the user notification list, and it relies on updating the `created_at` attribute, which is a bit hacky.
As a better alternative, we're introducing a new plan that deletes all the previous versions of the notification, then creates a new one.
* REFACTOR: Improve support for consolidating notifications.
Before this commit, we didn't have a single way of consolidating notifications. For notifications like group summaries, we manually removed old ones before creating a new one. On the other hand, we used an after_create callback for likes and group membership requests, which caused unnecessary work, as we need to delete the record we created to replace it with a consolidated one.
We now have all the consolidation rules centralized in a single place: the consolidation planner class. Other parts of the app looking to create a consolidable notification can do so by calling Notification#consolidate_or_save!, instead of the default Notification#create! method.
Finally, we added two more rules: one for re-using existing group summaries and another for deleting duplicated dashboard problems PMs notifications when the user is tracking the moderator's inbox. Setting the threshold to one forces the planner to apply this rule every time.
I plan to add plugin support for adding custom rules in another PR to keep this one relatively small.
* DEV: Introduces a plugin API for consolidating notifications.
This commit removes the `Notification#filter_by_consolidation_data` scope since plugins could have to define their criteria. The Plan class now receives two blocks, one to query for an already consolidated notification, which we'll try to update, and another to query for existing ones to consolidate.
It also receives a consolidation window, which accepts an ActiveSupport::Duration object, and filter notifications created since that value.
This commit adds token_hash and scopes columns to email_tokens table.
token_hash is a replacement for the token column to avoid storing email
tokens in plaintext as it can pose a security risk. The new scope column
ensures that email tokens cannot be used to perform a different action
than the one intended.
To sum up, this commit:
* Adds token_hash and scope to email_tokens
* Reuses code that schedules critical_user_email
* Refactors EmailToken.confirm and EmailToken.atomic_confirm methods
* Periodically cleans old, unconfirmed or expired email tokens
Use @here to mention all users that were allowed to topic directly or
through group, who liked topics or read the topic. Only first 10 users
will be notified.
We are pushing /notification-alert/#{user_id} and /notification/#{user_id}
messages to MessageBus from both PostAlerter and User#publish_notification_state.
This can cause memory issues on large sites with many users. This commit
stems the bleeding by only sending these alert messages if the user
in question has been seen in the last 30 days, which eliminates a large
chunk of users on some sites.
When 31035010af
was done it failed to take into account the case where the smtp_enabled
site setting was true, but the topic had no allowed groups / no
incoming email record, which caused errors for topics even with
nothing to do with group SMTP.
When there are multiple groups on a topic, we were selecting
the first from the topic allowed groups to act as the sender
email address when sending group SMTP replies via PostAlerter.
However, this was not ordered, and since there is no created_at
column on TopicAllowedGroup we cannot order this nicely, which
caused just a random group to be used (based on whatever postgres
decided it felt like that morning).
This commit changes the group used for SMTP sending to be the
group using the email_username of the to address of the first
incoming email for the topic, if there are more than one allowed
groups on the topic. Otherwise it just uses the only SMTP enabled
group.
This PR introduces a new `enable_experimental_backup_uploads` site setting (default false and hidden), which when enabled alongside `enable_direct_s3_uploads` will allow for direct S3 multipart uploads of backup .tar.gz files.
To make multipart external uploads work with both the S3BackupStore and the S3Store, I've had to move several methods out of S3Store and into S3Helper, including:
* presigned_url
* create_multipart
* abort_multipart
* complete_multipart
* presign_multipart_part
* list_multipart_parts
Then, S3Store and S3BackupStore either delegate directly to S3Helper or have their own special methods to call S3Helper for these methods. FileStore.temporary_upload_path has also removed its dependence on upload_path, and can now be used interchangeably between the stores. A similar change was made in the frontend as well, moving the multipart related JS code out of ComposerUppyUpload and into a mixin of its own, so it can also be used by UppyUploadMixin.
Some changes to ExternalUploadManager had to be made here as well. The backup direct uploads do not need an Upload record made for them in the database, so they can be moved to their final S3 resting place when completing the multipart upload.
This changeset is not perfect; it introduces some special cases in UploadController to handle backups that was previously in BackupController, because UploadController is where the multipart routes are located. A subsequent pull request will pull these routes into a module or some other sharing pattern, along with hooks, so the backup controller and the upload controller (and any future controllers that may need them) can include these routes in a nicer way.
Calling create_notification_alert could still send a notification to a
suspended user. This just moves the check if user is suspended right
before sending the notification.
The file size error messages for max_image_size_kb and
max_attachment_size_kb are shown to the user in the KB
format, regardless of how large the limit is. Since we
are going to support uploading much larger files soon,
this KB-based limit soon becomes unfriendly to the end
user.
For example, if the max attachment size is set to 512000
KB, this is what the user sees:
> Sorry, the file you are trying to upload is too big (maximum
size is 512000KB)
This makes the user do math. In almost all file explorers that
a regular user would be familiar width, the file size is shown
in a format based on the maximum increment (e.g. KB, MB, GB).
This commit changes the behaviour to output a humanized file size
instead of the raw KB. For the above example, it would now say:
> Sorry, the file you are trying to upload is too big (maximum
size is 512 MB)
This humanization also handles decimals, e.g. 1536KB = 1.5 MB
This pull request introduces the endpoints required, and the JavaScript functionality in the `ComposerUppyUpload` mixin, for direct S3 multipart uploads. There are four new endpoints in the uploads controller:
* `create-multipart.json` - Creates the multipart upload in S3 along with an `ExternalUploadStub` record, storing information about the file in the same way as `generate-presigned-put.json` does for regular direct S3 uploads
* `batch-presign-multipart-parts.json` - Takes a list of part numbers and the unique identifier for an `ExternalUploadStub` record, and generates the presigned URLs for those parts if the multipart upload still exists and if the user has permission to access that upload
* `complete-multipart.json` - Completes the multipart upload in S3. Needs the full list of part numbers and their associated ETags which are returned when the part is uploaded to the presigned URL above. Only works if the user has permission to access the associated `ExternalUploadStub` record and the multipart upload still exists.
After we confirm the upload is complete in S3, we go through the regular `UploadCreator` flow, the same as `complete-external-upload.json`, and promote the temporary upload S3 into a full `Upload` record, moving it to its final destination.
* `abort-multipart.json` - Aborts the multipart upload on S3 and destroys the `ExternalUploadStub` record if the user has permission to access that upload.
Also added are a few new columns to `ExternalUploadStub`:
* multipart - Whether or not this is a multipart upload
* external_upload_identifier - The "upload ID" for an S3 multipart upload
* filesize - The size of the file when the `create-multipart.json` or `generate-presigned-put.json` is called. This is used for validation.
When the user completes a direct S3 upload, either regular or multipart, we take the `filesize` that was captured when the `ExternalUploadStub` was first created and compare it with the final `Content-Length` size of the file where it is stored in S3. Then, if the two do not match, we throw an error, delete the file on S3, and ban the user from uploading files for N (default 5) minutes. This would only happen if the user uploads a different file than what they first specified, or in the case of multipart uploads uploaded larger chunks than needed. This is done to prevent abuse of S3 storage by bad actors.
Also included in this PR is an update to vendor/uppy.js. This has been built locally from the latest uppy source at d613b849a6. This must be done so that I can get my multipart upload changes into Discourse. When the Uppy team cuts a proper release, we can bump the package.json versions instead.
While merging two user accounts don't merge the source user's email address if the target user is not a human.

We shouldn't be checking if a user is allowed to do an action in the logger. We should be checking it just before we perform the action. In fact, guardians in the logger can make things even worse in case of a security bug. Let's say we forgot to check user's permissions before performing some action, but we still have a call to the guardian in the logger. In this case, a user would perform the action anyway, and this action wouldn't even be logged!
I've checked all cases and I confirm that we're safe to delete this calls from the logger.
I've added two calls to guardians in admin/user_controller. We didn't have security bugs there, because regular users can't access admin/... routes at all. But it's good to have calls to guardian in these methods anyway, neighboring methods have them.
This adds a few different things to allow for direct S3 uploads using uppy. **These changes are still not the default.** There are hidden `enable_experimental_image_uploader` and `enable_direct_s3_uploads` settings that must be turned on for any of this code to be used, and even if they are turned on only the User Card Background for the user profile actually uses uppy-image-uploader.
A new `ExternalUploadStub` model and database table is introduced in this pull request. This is used to keep track of uploads that are uploaded to a temporary location in S3 with the direct to S3 code, and they are eventually deleted a) when the direct upload is completed and b) after a certain time period of not being used.
### Starting a direct S3 upload
When an S3 direct upload is initiated with uppy, we first request a presigned PUT URL from the new `generate-presigned-put` endpoint in `UploadsController`. This generates an S3 key in the `temp` folder inside the correct bucket path, along with any metadata from the clientside (e.g. the SHA1 checksum described below). This will also create an `ExternalUploadStub` and store the details of the temp object key and the file being uploaded.
Once the clientside has this URL, uppy will upload the file direct to S3 using the presigned URL. Once the upload is complete we go to the next stage.
### Completing a direct S3 upload
Once the upload to S3 is done we call the new `complete-external-upload` route with the unique identifier of the `ExternalUploadStub` created earlier. Only the user who made the stub can complete the external upload. One of two paths is followed via the `ExternalUploadManager`.
1. If the object in S3 is too large (currently 100mb defined by `ExternalUploadManager::DOWNLOAD_LIMIT`) we do not download and generate the SHA1 for that file. Instead we create the `Upload` record via `UploadCreator` and simply copy it to its final destination on S3 then delete the initial temp file. Several modifications to `UploadCreator` have been made to accommodate this.
2. If the object in S3 is small enough, we download it. When the temporary S3 file is downloaded, we compare the SHA1 checksum generated by the browser with the actual SHA1 checksum of the file generated by ruby. The browser SHA1 checksum is stored on the object in S3 with metadata, and is generated via the `UppyChecksum` plugin. Keep in mind that some browsers will not generate this due to compatibility or other issues.
We then follow the normal `UploadCreator` path with one exception. To cut down on having to re-upload the file again, if there are no changes (such as resizing etc) to the file in `UploadCreator` we follow the same copy + delete temp path that we do for files that are too large.
3. Finally we return the serialized upload record back to the client
There are several errors that could happen that are handled by `UploadsController` as well.
Also in this PR is some refactoring of `displayErrorForUpload` to handle both uppy and jquery file uploader errors.
In badge queries for 'First Share' and 'Nice/Good/Great Share' badges,
check that the user exists.
For 'Nice+ Share' badges, also grant badges if the number of shares is
equal to the threshhold count to better match the descriptions.
Configuring staged users to watch categories and tags is a way to sign
them up to get many emails. These emails may be unwanted and get marked
as spam, hurting the site's email deliverability.
Users can opt-in to email notifications by logging on to their
account and configuring their own preferences.
If staff need to be able to configure these preferences on behalf of
staged users, the "allow changing staged user tracking" site setting
can be enabled. Default is to not allow it.

There was a bug with changing timestamps using the topic wrench button. Under some circumstances, a topic was disappearing from the top of the latest tab after changing timestamps. Steps to reproduce:
- Choose a topic on the latest tab (the topic should be created some time ago, but has recent posts)
- Change topic timestamps (for example, move them one day forward):
- Go back to the latest tab and see that topic has disappeared.
This PR fixes this. We were setting topic.bumped_at to the timestamp user specified on the modal. This is incorrect. Instead, we should be setting topic.bumped_at to the created_at timestamp of the last regular (not a whisper and so on) post on the topic.
Currently when bulk-awarding a badge that can be granted multiple times, users in the CSV file are granted the badge once no matter how many times they're listed in the file and only if they don't have the badge already.
This PR adds a new option to the Badge Bulk Award feature so that it's possible to grant users a badge even if they already have the badge and as many times as they appear in the CSV file.
Mixing multisite and standard specs can lead to issues (e.g. when using `fab!`)
Disabled the (upcoming https://github.com/discourse/rubocop-discourse/pull/11) rubocop rule for two files that have thoroughly tangled both types of specs.
For other private messages we have the site setting
personal_email_time_window_seconds (default 20s) which allows
people to edit their post etc. before the email is sent.
This PR makes the Jobs::GroupSmtpEmail enqueuer in the
PostAlerter use the same delay.
<!-- NOTE: All pull requests should have tests (rspec in Ruby, qunit in JavaScript). If your code does not include test coverage, please include an explanation of why it was omitted. -->
This PR backtracks a fair bit on this one https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/13220/files.
Instead of sending the group SMTP email for each user via `UserNotifications`, we are changing to send only one email with the existing `Jobs::GroupSmtpEmail` job and `GroupSmtpMailer`. We are changing this job and mailer along with `PostAlerter` to make the first topic allowed user the `to_address` for the email and any other `topic_allowed_users` to be the CC address on the email. This is to cut down on emails sent via SMTP, which is subject to daily limits from providers such as Gmail. We log these details in the `EmailLog` table now.
In addition to this, we have changed `PostAlerter` to no longer rely on incoming email email addresses for sending the `GroupSmtpEmail` job. This was unreliable as a user's email could have changed in the meantime. Also it was a little overcomplicated to use the incoming email records -- it is far simpler to reason about to just use topic allowed users.
This also adds a fix to include cc_addresses in the EmailLog.addressed_to_user scope.
Anonymizing a user changed their email address, destroyed all
associated InvitedUser records, but did not destroy the invites
associated to user's email.
When a group only has SMTP enabled and not IMAP, we do not
want to enqueue the :group_smtp_email job because using the group's
SMTP credentials for sending user_private_message emails is
handled by the UserNotifications class.
We do not want the :group_smtp_email job to be enqueued because
that uses a reply key instead of the group.email_username
for the reply-to address which is not what we want for SMTP
only, and also creates an IncomingEmail record to prevent IMAP
double syncing which we do not need either.
There is an open question about what happens when IMAP is
enabled after SMTP has been enabled for a while, and also questions
around whether we could do away with :group_smtp_email altogether
and handle everything via EmailLog and UserNotifications, adding
additional columns to the former and modifying the Imap::Sync
class to take this into account...a lot more further testing
for IMAP needs to be done to answer those questions.
For now, this fix should be sufficient to get the correct
reply-to address for user_private_response messages sent in
response to emails sent directly to the group's
email_username SMTP address.

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.
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.
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.
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
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: 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
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.
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.
