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
5ceb72f085.mp4
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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`.
Admins won't be able to disable strip_image_metadata if they don't
disable composer_media_optimization_image_enabled first since the later
will strip the same metadata on client during upload, making disabling
the former have no effect.
Bug report at https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/223350
When an admin enters a badly formed regular expression in the
permalink_normalizations site setting, a RegexpError exception is
generated everytime a URL is normalized (see Permalink.normalize_url).
The new validator validates every regular expression present in the
setting value (delimited by '|').
This commit introduces a new site setting: `use_name_for_username_suggestions` (default true)
Admins can disable it if they want to stop using Name values when generating usernames for users. This can be useful if you want to keep real names private-by-default or, when used in conjunction with the `use_email_for_username_and_name_suggestions` setting, you would prefer to use email-based username suggestions.

This pull request follows on from https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/16308. This one does the following:
* Changes `BookmarkQuery` to allow for querying more than just Post and Topic bookmarkables
* Introduces a `Bookmark.register_bookmarkable` method which requires a model, serializer, fields and preload includes for searching. These registered `Bookmarkable` types are then used when validating new bookmarks, and also when determining which serializer to use for the bookmark list. The `Post` and `Topic` bookmarkables are registered by default.
* Adds new specific types for Post and Topic bookmark serializers along with preloading of associations in `UserBookmarkList`
* Changes to the user bookmark list template to allow for more generic bookmarkable types alongside the Post and Topic ones which need to display in a particular way
All of these changes are gated behind the `use_polymorphic_bookmarks` site setting, apart from the .hbs changes where I have updated the original `UserBookmarkSerializer` with some stub methods.
Following this PR will be several plugin PRs (for assign, chat, encrypt) that will register their own bookmarkable types or otherwise alter the bookmark serializers in their own way, also gated behind `use_polymorphic_bookmarks`.
This commit also removes `BookmarkQuery.preloaded_custom_fields` and the functionality surrounding it. It was added in 0cd502a558 but only used by one plugin (discourse-assign) where it has since been removed, and is now used by no plugins. We don't need it anymore.
* Adds a hidden site setting: `max_participant_names`
* Replaces duplicate code in `GroupSmtpMailer` and `UserNotifications`
* Groups are sorted by the number of users (decreasing)
* Replaces the query to count users of each group with `Group#user_count`)
* Users are sorted by their last reply in the topic (most recent first)
* Adds lots of tests
Commit 68497bddf2 implemented a function
to format durations in a medium format, similar to how durationTiny did.
The existent translation strings do not cover all cases and this commit
adds the missing translation strings.
This updates the fix in commit eb70ea4.

Discourse has the Discourse Connect Provider protocol that makes it possible to
use a Discourse instance as an identity provider for external sites. As a
natural extension to this protocol, this PR adds a new feature that makes it
possible to use Discourse as a 2FA provider as well as an identity provider.
The rationale for this change is that it's very difficult to implement 2FA
support in a website and if you have multiple websites that need to have 2FA,
it's unrealistic to build and maintain a separate 2FA implementation for each
one. But with this change, you can piggyback on Discourse to take care of all
the 2FA details for you for as many sites as you wish.
To use Discourse as a 2FA provider, you'll need to follow this guide:
https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/32974. It walks you through what you need to
implement on your end/site and how to configure your Discourse instance. Once
you're done, there is only one additional thing you need to do which is to
include `require_2fa=true` in the payload that you send to Discourse.
When Discourse sees `require_2fa=true`, it'll prompt the user to confirm their
2FA using whatever methods they've enabled (TOTP or security keys), and once
they confirm they'll be redirected back to the return URL you've configured and
the payload will contain `confirmed_2fa=true`. If the user has no 2FA methods
enabled however, the payload will not contain `confirmed_2fa`, but it will
contain `no_2fa_methods=true`.
You'll need to be careful to re-run all the security checks and ensure the user
can still access the resource on your site after they return from Discourse.
This is very important because there's nothing that guarantees the user that
will come back from Discourse after they confirm 2FA is the same user that
you've redirected to Discourse.
Internal ticket: t62183.
* FEATURE: Let sites add a sitemap.xml file.
This PR adds the same features discourse-sitemap provides to core. Sitemaps are only added to the robots.txt file if the `enable_sitemap` setting is enabled and `login_required` disabled.
After merging discourse/discourse-sitemap#34, this change will take priority over the sitemap plugin because it will disable itself. We're also using the same sitemaps table, so our migration won't try to create it
again using `if_not_exists: true`.
This PR brings the `UppyUploadMixin` more into line with the `ComposerUppyUpload` mixin, by extending the `ExtendableUploader` . This also adds better tracking of and events for in progress uploads in the `UppyUploadMixin` for better UI interactions, and also opens up the use of `_useUploadPlugin` for the mixin, so anything implementing `UppyUploadMixin` can add extra uppy preprocessor plugins as needed.
This has been done as part of work on extracting uploads out of the chat composer. In future, we might be able to do the same for `ComposerUppyUpload`, getting rid of that mixin to standardise on `UppyUploadMixin` and have a separate `composer-uploads` component that lives alongside `composer-editor` like what we are doing in https://github.com/discourse/discourse-chat/pull/764
Previously we only supported a single 'required tag group' for a category. This commit allows admins to specify multiple required tag groups, each with their own minimum tag count.
A new category_required_tag_groups database table replaces the existing columns on the categories table. Data is automatically migrated.
Invited users were allowed to accept invites without entering a
password. When this happened, instead of receiving an activation email,
they received a password reset email. Basically, a user could postpone
choosing a password until after registration.
Unfortunately, this led to a confusing user experience and this commit
attempts to fix that by making the client require a password. There is
a single case when users do not need to input a password: when they sign
up using an external authenticator and password field is completely
hidden. In this case, the third party handles the password logic.
Technically, invites can still be redeemed without a password, but that
functionality was kept to preserve backwards compatibility.
Previous to this change if any of the assets were not allowed extensions
they would simply be silently ignored, this could lead to broken themes
that are very hard to debug
The changes are:
* Add an aria-label for the button that embeds/expand the replies of a
post below it
* Add an aria-label for the button that collapses the embedded replies
* Add an aria-label to describe the embedded replies section when
expanded and an aria-label for each embedded reply
The improvements are:
* Add an aria-label to the like/read count buttons below posts to
indicate what they mean and do.
* Add aria-pressed to the like/read count buttons to make it clear to screen
readers that these buttons are toggleable.
* Add an aria-label to the list of avatars that's shown when post likes
or readers are expanded so that screen reader users can understand what
the list of avatars means.
This commit introduces a new use_polymorphic_bookmarks site setting
that is default false and hidden, that will be used to help continuous
development of polymorphic bookmarks. This setting **should not** be
enabled anywhere in production yet, it is purely for local development.
This commit uses the setting to enable create/update/delete actions
for polymorphic bookmarks on the server and client side. The bookmark
interactions on topics/posts are all usable. Listing, searching,
sending bookmark reminders, and other edge cases will be handled
in subsequent PRs.
Comprehensive UI tests will be added in the final PR -- we already
have them for regular bookmarks, so it will just be a matter of
changing them to be for polymorphic bookmarks.
Tags (and tag groups) can be configured so that they can only be used in specific categories and (optionally) restrict topics in these categories to be able to add/use only these tags. These restrictions work as expected when a topic is created without going through the review queue; however, if the topic has to be reviewed by a moderator then these restrictions currently aren't checked before the topic is sent to the review queue, but they're checked later when a moderator tries to approve the topic. This is because if a user manages to submit a topic that doesn't meet the restrictions, moderators won't be able to approve and it'll be stuck in the review queue.
This PR prevents topics that don't meet the tags requirements from being sent to the review queue and shows the poster an error message that indicates which tags that cannot be used.
Internal ticket: t60562.
Clicking the Replies cell of a topic in a topics list shows a little
modal with 2 buttons that take you to the first and last posts of the
topic. This modal is currently completely inaccessible to
keyboard/screen reader users because it can't be reached using the
keyboard.
This commit improves the modal so that it traps focus when it's shown
and makes it possible to close the modal using the esc key.
Topics lists like /latest are ordered by last activity date by default,
but the order can be changed (and reversed) to something else such as
replies count and views count by clicking on the corresponding column
header in the topics list. These column headers are tabbable, but screen
readers announce them as, using the replies column as example, `Replies
toggle button`. This doesn't communicate very well that this the button
changes the order, so this commit adds `aria-label`s to all column
headers to make it clear that they change order. The current copy for
the `aria-label` is `Sort by replies`.
Previously, if an admin user tried to add/remove
users to another user's ignored list, it would
be added to their own ignore list because the
controller used current_user. Now for admins only
a source_user_id parameter can be passed through,
which will be used to ignore the target user for
that source user.
The user can select what happens with a bookamrk after it expires. New
option allow bookmark's reminder to be kept even after it has expired.
After a bookmark's reminder notification is created, the reminder date
will be highlighted in red until the user resets the reminder date.
User can do that using the new Clear Reminder button from the dropdown.
When creating files with create-multipart, if the file
size was somehow zero we were showing a very unhelpful
error message to the user. Now we show a nicer message,
and proactively don't call the API if we know the file
size is 0 bytes in JS, along with extra console logging
to help with debugging.
