When lurking on a Discourse as anonymous, if the sidebar is enabled, and a section contains only secondary links that are not visible to anonymous users, we should not display the "more..." button.
Otherwise it feels broken because clicking on it does nothing, since there are no "visible" links to be shown.
Internal ref t/144716
We've seen in some communities abuse of user profile where bios and other fields are used in malicious ways, such as malware distribution. A common pattern between all the abuse cases we've seen is that the malicious actors tend to have 0 posts and have a low trust level.
To eliminate this abuse vector, or at least make it much less effective, we're making the following changes to user profiles:
1. Anonymous, TL0 and TL1 users cannot see any user profiles for users with 0 posts except for staff users
2. Anonymous and TL0 users can only see profiles of TL1 users and above
Users can always see their own profile, and they can still hide their profiles via the "Hide my public profile" preference. Staff can always see any user's profile.
Internal topic: t/142853.
At the top of the theme show page we have a link
to the theme About and License, which are supposed
to be URLs. However some themes have left placeholder
text in these metadata fields, which leads to a wonky
experience.
Instead, we can just not serialize these fields if they
are not valid URLs, then they will not show as links
in the UI.
This commit introduces a new feature that allows staff to bulk select and delete users directly from the users list at `/admin/users/list`. The main use-case for this feature is make deleting spammers easier when a site is under a large spam attack.
Internal topic: t/140321.
As part of a previous fix we changed which groups are serialized for a user, in order to fix a bug in the default group selector under user preferences.
However, we should only change this when serializing the current user. This change combines the old code-path and the new based on who is serializing.
It splits the hide_profile_and_presence user option and the default_hide_profile_and_presence site setting for more granular control. It keeps the option to hide the profile under /u/username/preferences/interface and adds the presence toggle in the quick user menu.

Currently, if an association is added as a tracked field in
`PostRevisor`, the `PostRevisionSerializer` class will try to serialize
it somehow. This will raise an error as ActiveRecord collection proxies
can't be serialized.
This patch addresses this issue by skipping any association tracked by
the `PostRevisor` class.
This commit allows themes to define up to 2 screenshots
in about.json. These should be paths within the theme's
git repository, images with a 1MB max file size and max width 3840x2160.
These screenshots will be downloaded and stored against a theme
field, and we will use these in the redesigned theme grid UI.
These screenshots will be updated when the theme is updated
in the same way the additional theme files are.
For now this is gated behind a hidden `theme_download_screenshots`
site setting, to allow us to test this on a small number of sites without
making other sites make unnecessary uploads.
**Future considerations:**
* We may want to have a specialized naming system for screenshots. E.g. having light.png/dark.png/some_palette.png
* We may want to show more than one screenshot for the theme, maybe in a carousel or reacting to dark mode or color palette changes
* We may want to allow clicking on the theme screenshot to show a lightbox
* We may want to make an optimized thumbnail image for the theme grid

If a plugin's JS fails to load for some reason, most commonly
ad blockers, the entire admin interface would break. This is because
we are adding links to the admin routes for plugins that define
them in the sidebar.
We have a fix for this already in the plugin list which shows a warning
to the admin. This fix just prevents the broken link from rendering
in the sidebar if the route is not valid.
There have been too many flaky tests as a result of leaking state in
Redis so it is easier to resolve them by ensuring we flush Redis'
database.
Locally on my machine, calling `Discourse.redis.flushdb` takes around
0.1ms which means this change will have very little impact on test
runtimes.
Currently, categories support designating only 1 group as a moderation group on the category. This commit removes the one group limitation and makes it possible to designate multiple groups as mods on a category.
Internal topic: t/124648.
Currently, `FlagSerializer#short_description` properly provides
`base_path` to its translations, but `FlagSerializer#description` does
not. This breaks the link to guidelines when flagging a post, for
example.
This patch provides `base_path` for `FlagSerializer#description` too.
This commit improves `TopicsController#show` to not load suggested and
related topics unless it is the last page of the topic's view.
Previously, we avoided loading suggested and related topics by the use
of conditionals in the `TopicViewSerializer` to avoid calling
`TopicView#suggested_topics` and `TopicView#related_topics`. However,
this pattern is not reliable as the methods can still be called from
other spots in the code base. Instead, we ensure that
`TopicView#include_suggested` and `TopicView#include_related` is set
correctly on the instance of `TopicView` which ensures that for the
given instance, `TopicView#suggested_topics` and
`TopicView#related_topics` will be a noop.
This commit fixes two codepaths which where incorrectly working with capitalized usernames as we were doing a mix of username_lower and non lower username.
Also adds two specs for these cases.
### Why?
Before, all flags were static. Therefore, they were stored in class variables and serialized by SiteSerializer. Recently, we added an option for admins to add their own flags or disable existing flags. Therefore, the class variable had to be dropped because it was unsafe for a multisite environment. However, it started causing performance problems.
### Solution
When a new Flag system is used, instead of using PostActionType, we can serialize Flags and use fragment cache for performance reasons.
At the same time, we are still supporting deprecated `replace_flags` API call. When it is used, we fall back to the old solution and the admin cannot add custom flags. In a couple of months, we will be able to drop that API function and clean that code properly. However, because it may still be used, redis cache was introduced to improve performance.
To test backward compatibility you can add this code to any plugin
```ruby
replace_flags do |flag_settings|
flag_settings.add(
4,
:inappropriate,
topic_type: true,
notify_type: true,
auto_action_type: true,
)
flag_settings.add(1001, :trolling, topic_type: true, notify_type: true, auto_action_type: true)
end
```

flag_settings.add(1001, :trolling, topic_type: true, notify_type: true, auto_action_type: true)
end
```
Currently, descriptions for flag types aren’t interpolated, returning
`%{base_path}` in their string, for example. This breaks the navigation
on the sites.
The behavior changed probably because of an upgrade of Ruby, as two
hashes were passed to `I18n.t` (`vars` and `default`) without using the
splat operator.
The user serializer groups method previously relied on the members_visible_groups to determine groups that the user should be able to see, however this setting was intended for visibility of group members (which is entirely different).
The result of this could be seen when choosing a primary group from user preferences -> account, due to the serializer the group name was not visible when members_visible_groups was set to owners.
Instead of the deprecated 'min trust level to allow ignore' in order to reduce the number of deprecation notices in the logs.
This tweaks a few serializers so that the 'can_ignore_users?` property is always coming from the server and properly used on the client-side.
In some instances, the `modifications` of `tags` hasn't been properly serialized as a Ruby array but rather as a string (I've seen `""`, `"[]"`, and `"[\"\"]"`).
This generates an error when we try to `filter_tags` and remove `hidden_tags` (which is an array) from `tags` which might be a string.

I wasn't able to figure out the root cause of this so I reverted the behavior that was introduced ~6 years ago in f2c060bdf2
For plugins with only an "enabled" site setting, it doesn't
make sense to take them to the site settings page, since the
toggle switch in the list can be used to change enabled/disabled.
This will not be the case for plugins that have their own custom
config page (like Automation), but we will deal with this when
we actually overhaul this plugin to use the new show page.
Also adds another rspec fixture of a test plugin.
- FIX: properly scope category changes to what the current user can see
- UX: previous category is now highlighted in "red", new category is highlighted in "green"
- PERF: no need to serialize the categories
- FIX: properly track wiki
- FIX: properly track post_type (aka. Staff Color)
- FIX: properly track making a topic a PM
- FIX: never show the category changes when a topic is made a PM
- PERF: post_revision serializer is now more leaner (never includes title changes when post_number > 1, never includes user changes if there aren't any)
- UX: always sort the tags by name
Why this change?
In cdba864598, we added support for adding
a description which will be displayed under the input of each property
on the client side.
Currently this convention in the locale file is followed:
```
en:
theme_metadata:
settings:
objects_setting:
description: <description> for the setting
schema:
properties:
name: <description for the name property>
links:
name: <description for the name property in link>
url: <description for the url property in link>
```
Since we now want to allow the label to be translated as well, we will
be changing the convention to the following:
```
en:
theme_metadata:
settings:
objects_setting:
description: <description> for the setting
schema:
properties:
name:
label: <label for the name property>
description: <description for the name property>
links:
name:
label: <label for the name property>
description: <description for the name property in link>
url:
label: <label for the url property>
description: <description for the url property in link>
```
If the locale file does not provide a `label` key under the property's
name, the client side will just display the property's name as the
label for the input field.
Why this change?
This is a follow-up to 86b2e3aa3e.
Basically, we want to allow people to select more than 1 category as well.
What does this change do?
1. Change `type: category` to `type: categories` and support `min` and `max`
validations for `type: categories`.
2. Fix the `<SchemaThemeSetting::Types::Categories>` component to support the
`min` and `max` validations and switch it to use the `<CategorySelector>` component
instead of the `<CategoryChooser>` component which only supports selecting one category.
Why this change?
Previously, we were preloading the necessary metadata for
`adminCustomizeThemes.show.schema` route in the
`adminCustomizeThemes.show` route. This is wasteful because we're
loading data upfront when the objects setting editor may not be used.
This change also lays the ground work for a future commit where we need
to be shipping down additional metadata which may further add to the
payload.
Why this change?
When editing a objects typed theme setting, the input fields which are
rendered should include a description so that the user knows the purpose
of the field which they are changing.
What does this change do?
This change adds support for adding description to each property in the
schema for an object by following a given convention in the locale file.
For a schema like this:
```
objects_setting:
type: objects
schema:
name: section
properties:
name:
type: string
required: true
links:
type: objects
schema:
name: link
properties:
name:
type: string
required: true
validations:
max_length: 20
url:
type: string
```
Description for each property in the object can be added like so:
```
en:
theme_metadata:
settings:
objects_setting:
description: <description> for the setting
schema:
properties:
name: <description for the name property>
links:
name: <description for the name property in link>
url: <description for the url property in link>
```
If the a description is not present, the input field will simply not
have an description.
Also note that a description for a theme setting can now be added like
so:
```
en:
theme_metadata:
settings:
some_other_setting: <This will be used as the description>
objects_setting:
description: <This will also be used as the description>
```
Why this change?
The `/admin/customize/themes/:id/schema/name` route is a work in
progress but we want to be able to start navigating to it from the
`/admin/customize/themes/:id` route.
What does this change do?
1. Move `adminCustomizeThemes.schema` to a child route of
`adminCustomizeThemes.show`. This is because we need the model
from the parent route and if it isn't a child route we end up
having to load the theme model again from the server.
1. Add the `objects_schema` attribute to `ThemeSettingsSerializer`
1. Refactor `SiteSettingComponent` to be able to render a button
so that we don't have to hardcode the button rendering into the
`SiteSettings::String` component
Users can hide their public profile and presence information by checking
“Hide my public profile and presence features” on the
`u/{username}/preferences/interface` page. In that case, we also don't
want to return user status from the server.
This work has been started in https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/23946.
The current PR fixes all the remaining places in Core.
Note that the actual fix is quite simple – a5802f484d.
But we had a fair amount of duplication in the code responsible for
the user status serialization, so I had to dry that up first. The refactoring
as well as adding some additional tests is the main part of this PR.
