- Avoid using User#find and then fetching the user_stat association just to update a counter - We did this for every post in the topic.
- Avoid having to query the topic_allowed_user table everytime we want add a new topic_allowed_user
- Use pluck to fetch just what we need.
This PR introduces a new secure media setting. When enabled, it prevent unathorized access to media uploads (files of type image, video and audio). When the `login_required` setting is enabled, then all media uploads will be protected from unauthorized (anonymous) access. When `login_required`is disabled, only media in private messages will be protected from unauthorized access.
A few notes:
- the `prevent_anons_from_downloading_files` setting no longer applies to audio and video uploads
- the `secure_media` setting can only be enabled if S3 uploads are already enabled and configured
- upload records have a new column, `secure`, which is a boolean `true/false` of the upload's secure status
- when creating a public post with an upload that has already been uploaded and is marked as secure, the post creator will raise an error
- when enabling or disabling the setting on a site with existing uploads, the rake task `uploads:ensure_correct_acl` should be used to update all uploads' secure status and their ACL on S3
Previous versions of the mail-receiver used query based api credentials,
if we detect this we will show a message in the admin panel to update
the mail receiver.
* Fix user title logic when badge name customized
* Fix an issue where a user's title was not considered a badge granted title when the user used a badge for their title and the badge name was customized. this affected the effectiveness of revoke_ungranted_titles! which only operates on badge_granted_titles.
* When a user's title is set now it is considered a badge_granted_title if the badge name OR the badge custom name from TranslationOverride is the same as the title
* When a user's badge is revoked we now also revoke their title if the user's title matches the badge name OR the badge custom name from TranslationOverride
* Add a user history log when the title is revoked to remove confusion about why titles are revoked
* Add granted_title_badge_id to user_profile, now when we set badge_granted_title on a user profile when updating a user's title based on a badge, we also remember which badge matched the title
* When badge name (or custom text) changes update titles of users in a background job
* When the name of a badge changes, or in the case of system badges when their custom translation text changes, then we need to update the title of all corresponding users who have a badge_granted_title and matching granted_title_badge_id. In the case of system badges we need to first get the proper badge ID based on the translation key e.g. badges.regular.name
* Add migration to backfill all granted_title_badge_ids for both normal badge name titles and titles using custom badge text.
Instead of enabling `suppress_from_latest` setting on many categories now we can enable `mute_all_categories_by_default` site setting. Then users should opt-in to categories for them to appear in the latest and categories pages.
Previously our index was non unique, causing situations where a user could
have multiple drafts stored in the table for the same exact entity.
This does not properly reflect reality and needed to change as in certain
cases duplicate drafts could be created causing internal data inconsistency
This change adds a message to the admin panel if it detects an api
requests that doesn't use the new header based authentication method.
The message is to warn people to switch to header based auth and links
to the api documention topic on meta for more info.
- Allow revoking keys without deleting them
- Auto-revoke keys after a period of no use (default 6 months)
- Allow multiple keys per user
- Allow attaching a description to each key, for easier auditing
- Log changes to keys in the staff action log
- Move all key management to one place, and improve the UI
Previously theme translations were loaded along with other plugin API scripts. These run after pre-initializers and initializers when the app boots. This commit moves theme translation loading into pre-initializers, so their behaviour matches core translations more closely.
This ensures we can very quickly figure out which topics are banners if
a banner is set.
Previously you would have to scan an entire table to find banners
In a category's settings, the Tags tab has two new fields to
specify the number of tags that must be added to a topic
from a tag group. When creating a new topic, an error will be
shown to the user if the requirement isn't met.
The routes for categories are changing. The scheme that I intend to move
us to is:
/c/*slug_path/(:id)/ENDPOINT
/c/*slug_path/(:id)
This commit adds support for the new scheme to the server side without
dropping support for existing URLs. It is necessary to support existing
URLs for two reasons:
* This commit does not change any client side routing code,
* Posts that contain category hashtags that refer to a root category
are baked into URLs that do not fit this new scheme, (/c/[id]-[slug])
This is a major change to draft internals. Previously there were quite a
few cases where the draft system would say "draft saved", when in fact
we just skipped saving.
This commit ensures the draft system deals with draft ownership handover in
a predictable way.
For example:
- Window 1 editing draft
- Window 2 editing same draft at the same time
Previously we would allow window 1 and 2 to just fight on the same draft
each window overwriting the same draft over an over.
This commit introduces an ownership concept where either window 1 or 2 win
and user is prompted on the loser window to reload screen to correct the issue
This also corrects edge cases where a user could have multiple browser windows
open and posts in 1 window, later to post in the second window. Previously
drafts would break in the second window, this corrects it.
Certain DBs have duplicates already, if we want to ensure uniqueness here
we need to decide first how to clean up existing data and confirm all the
plugins expect this.
This simplifies the code for refreshing notification counts. It now
unconditionally looks up the user object which protects against stale objects
in memory.
This also removes a pile of conditional logic we no longer need.
Doing .pluck(:column).first is a very common pattern in Discourse and in
most cases, a limit cause isn't being added. Instead of adding a limit
clause to all these callsites, this commit adds two new methods to
ActiveRecord::Relation:
pluck_first, equivalent to limit(1).pluck(*columns).first
and pluck_first! which, like other finder methods, raises an exception
when no record is found
- Increase size of the reviewable's conversation excerpt to prevent truncation of the new copy
- Remove the `domain` parameter from the `flag_linked_posts_as_spam` method in the user model since it is no longer needed
- Remove the `domain` interpolation variable from all translation files
- Add "All posts from this user that include links should be reviewed." to server.en.yml for added clarity on why the posts entered the queue
Under exceptional situations the automatic draft feature can fail.
This new **hidden, default off** site setting
`backup_drafts_to_pm_length` will automatically backup any draft that is
saved by the system to a dedicated PM (originating from self)
The body of that PM will contain the text of the reply.
We can enable this feature strategically on sites exhibiting issues to
diagnose issues with the draft system and offer a recourse to users who
appear to lose drafts. We automatically checkpoint these drafts every 5
minutes forcing a new revision each 5 minutes so you can revert to old
content.
Longer term we are considering automatically enabling this kind of feature
for extremely long drafts where the risk is really high one could lose
days of writing.
* FIX: Do not encode the URL twice
Now that we encode slugs in the server we don't need this anymore.
Reverts fe5na33
* FIX: More places do deal with encoded slugs
* the param is a string now, not a hash
* FIX: Handle the nil slug on /categories
* DEV: Add seeded? method to identity default categories
* DEV: Use SiteSetting to keep track of seeded categories
Slugs can be the empty string, but the added index didn't account for
that. This commit changes the migration, stopping it from being unique
so that it can be applied everywhere and adds another migration that
recreates the index properly.
When a category has a subcategory, we ensure that no one who can see the
subcategory cannot see the parent. However, we don't take into account
the fact that, when no CategoryGroups exist, the default is that
everyone has full permissions.
Moving posts also moves the read state (`topic_users` table) to the destination topic. This changes that behavior so that only users who posted in the destination topic will have the original notification level (probably "watching") of the original topic. The notification level for all other users will be set to "regular".
Dropping the temp table in an `ensure` block hides the actual exception. Creating the table with `ON COMMIT DROP` makes the temp table disappear automatically at the end of the transaction. We only need the explicit `DROP` in tests, because tests already run inside a transaction, so the temp table won't be dropped after each test which leads to spec failures.
Post timings are created by `topic_id` and `post_number` and it's possible that the destination topic already contains post timings for non-existent posts. For example, this can happen if the destination topic was previously split and Discourse recorded post timings for moved posts in the destination topic.
This commit ensures that all timings which reference non-existent posts are deleted from the destination topic before the posts are moved.
If the setting is turned on, then the user will receive information
about the subject: if it was deleted or requires some special access to
a group (only if the group is public). Otherwise, the user will receive
a generic #404 error message. For now, this change affects only the
topics and categories controller.
This commit also tries to refactor some of the code related to error
handling. To make error pages more consistent (design-wise), the actual
error page will be rendered server-side.

As far I can tell it isn't used by core or any official plugins.
* FEATURE: Adds an extra protection layer when decompressing files.
* Rename exporter/importer to zip importer. Update old locale
* Added a new composite class to decompress a file with multiple strategies
* Set max file size inside a site setting
* Ensure that file is deleted after compression
* Sanitize path and files before compressing/decompressing
Zeitwerk simplifies working with dependencies in dev and makes it easier reloading class chains.
We no longer need to use Rails "require_dependency" anywhere and instead can just use standard
Ruby patterns to require files.
This is a far reaching change and we expect some followups here.
Adds 2 factor authentication method via second factor security keys over [web authn](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Authentication_API).
Allows a user to authenticate a second factor on login, login-via-email, admin-login, and change password routes. Adds registration area within existing user second factor preferences to register multiple security keys. Supports both external (yubikey) and built-in (macOS/android fingerprint readers).
Currently, the topic is only validated for censored words and should be validated for blocked words as well.
Blocked word validation is now used by both Post and Topic. To avoid code duplication, I extracted blocked words validation code into separate Validator, and use it in both places.
The only downside is that even if the topic contains blocked words validation message is saying "Your post contains a word that's not allowed: tomato" but I think this is descriptive enough.
Some site settings (e.g. `unicode_username_character_whitelist`) depend on the default locale, so we need to reset the watched settings when the locale changes.
Forums without previously calculated scores would return the same values
for low/medium/high sensitivity. Now those are scaled based on the
default value.
The default value has also been changed from 10.0 to 12.5 based on
observing data from live discourse forums.
* FEATURE: Add tl2 threshold for editing new posts
* Adds a new setting and for tl2 editing posts (30 days same as old value)
* Sets the tl0/tl1 editing period as 1 day
* FIX: Spec uses wrong setting
* Fix site setting on guardian spec
* FIX: post editing period specs
* Avoid shared examples
* Use update_columns to avoid callbacks on user during tests
If you click a (?) icon beside the reviewable status a pop up will
appear with expanded informatio that explains how the reviewable got its
score, and how it compares to system thresholds.
Start tracking the date an api key was last used. This has already been
the case for user_api_keys.
This information can provide us with the ability to automatically expire
unused api keys after N days.
The URL '/images/transparent.png' will be used in the cooked content if upload record not found. In that case we have to use 'short_url' as image src in 'post.each_upload_url' method.
* FIX: User should get notified when a post is deleted
* FEATURE: Notify posters when restoring flagged posts
* Fix typo
Co-Authored-By: Régis Hanol <regis@hanol.fr>
* Improve tests
* The read indicator now shows up when no member has read the last post of the topic (written by a non-member)
* The read indicator works on mobile and receives live updates from message bus
* The icon we display in the topic list was changed
* Added a title to the indicator to indicate its purpose when hovering over it
The client-side theme-selector would always apply the first in a series of file change notifications. This has been fixed, so it now applies the most recent notification.
Duplicate notifications were being sent because
- The remote_theme autosave was causing every change notification to be doubled
- Color scheme change notifications were being sent every time a theme was uploaded, even if the colors were unchanged
These duplicate notifications have been fixed, and a spec added to ensure it does not regress in future
Databases can have a lot of user actions, self joining and running an
aggregate on millions of rows can be very costly
This optimisation will reduce the regular window of consistency down to 13
hours, this ensures the job runs much faster
When activating a user via an external provider, this would cause the "this account is not activated" message to show on the first attempt, even though the account had been activated correctly.
* Revert "Revert "FEATURE: Publish read state on group messages. (#7989) [Undo revert] (#8024)""
This reverts commit 36425eb9f0.
* Fix: Show who read only if the attribute is enabled
* PERF: Precalculate the last post readed by a group member
* Use book-reader icon instear of far-eye
* FIX: update topic groups correctly
* DEV: Tidy up read indicator update on write
This change allows themes and components access to theme assets.
This means that inside theme js you can now get the URL for an asset with:
```
settings.theme_uploads.name
```
* Reenable: "FEATURE: Publish read state on group messages. (#7989)"
This reverts commit 67f5cc1ce8.
* FIX: Read indicator only appears when the group setting is enabled
* Enable or disable read state based on group attribute
* When read state needs to be published, the minimum unread count is calculated in the topic query. This way, we can know if someone reads the last post
* The option can be enabled/disabled from the UI
* The read indicator will live-updated using message bus
* Show read indicator on every post
* The read indicator now shows read count and can be expanded to see user avatars
* Read count gets updated everytime someone reads a message
* Simplify topic-list read indicator logic
* Unsubscribe from message bus on willDestroyElement, removed unnecesarry values from post-menu, and added a comment to explain where does minimum_unread_count comes from
Previously we relied on side effects to set tracking state correctly
when inviting groups to messages
Also has a minor optimisation in that we use pluck instead of pulling in
full record
Previously we would unconditionally issue an "invited_to_pm" notification
to all non muting users.
New behavior
- Watching and Watching first post get notified
- Tracking get a new "summary" message
- The rest get nothing
This is consistent with topic creation and way clearer
If enabled, this will fire a webhook whenever a user's notification has
been created. This could potentially be a lot of data depending on your
forum, and should be used carefully since it includes everything all users
will see in their feeds.
There are 5 visibility levels (similar to group visibility)
public (default)
logged-in users
members only
staff
owners
Admins & group owners always have visibility to group members.
- Use query builder to improve readability
- Remove subquery, so that all `where` filters happen alongside the limit
- Add 'edited at' column to the report
Theme developers can now add any of the transformed color variables to their color scheme in about.json. For example
```
"color_schemes": {
"Light": {
"primary": "333333",
"secondary": "ffffff",
"primary-low": "ff0000"
}
},
```
would override the primary-low variable when compiling SCSS for the color scheme. The primary-low variable will also be visible in administrator color palette UI.
All posts created by the user are counted unless they are deleted,
belong to a PM sent between a non-human user and the user or belong
to a PM created by the user which doesn't have any other recipients.
It also makes the guardian prevent self-deletes when SSO is enabled.
If a post is flagged after an action was already performed on it, it
will update the previous Reviable instance and not create a new one.
The notification logic was implemented in the :create callback which was
completely skipped in this case.
There are situations where depending on site settings, actions could be
taken due to flags (for example, hiding a post) but those actions were
not visibile in the review queue due to visibility settings.
This patch makes sure that the minimum score required for an action such
as hiding a post needs to meet the visibility for a moderator to see it.
