Adds a new slow mode for topics that are heating up. Users will have to wait for a period of time before being able to post again.
We store this interval inside the topics table and track the last time a user posted using the last_posted_at datetime in the TopicUser relation.
Dependency on gifsicle, allow_animated_avatars and allow_animated_thumbnails
site settings were all removed. Animated GIF images are still allowed, but
the generated optimized images are no longer animated for those (which were
used for avatars and thumbnails).
The added 'animated' is populated by extracting information using FastImage.
This field was used to selectively reoptimize old animations. This process
happens in the background.
* FEATURE: add penalty options for take action
Add the ability to silence or suspend users from the "take action"
button when moderators are flagging posts. This allows for a more streamlined
active moderation workflow, when moderating against a topic directly.
Now that we have support for user-selectable color schemes, it makes sense
to simplify seeding and theme updates in the wizard.
We now:
- seed only one theme, named "Default" (previously "Light")
- seed a user-selectable Dark color scheme
- rename the "Themes" wizard step to "Colors"
- update the default theme's color scheme if a default is set
(a new theme is created if there is no default)
Per Google, sites are encouraged to upgrade from `analytics.js` to `gtag.js` for Google Analytics tracking. This commit updates core Discourse to use the new `gtag.js` API Google is asking sites to use. This API has feature parity with `analytics.js` but does not use trackers.
When the server gets overloaded and lots of requests start queuing server
will attempt to shed load by returning 429 errors on background requests.
The client can flag a request as background by setting the header:
`Discourse-Background` to `true`
Out-of-the-box we shed load when the queue time goes above 0.5 seconds.
The only request we shed at the moment is the request to load up a new post
when someone posts to a topic.
We can extend this as we go with a more general pattern on the client.
Previous to this change, rate limiting would "break" the post stream which
would make suggested topics vanish and users would have to scroll the page
to see more posts in the topic.
Server needs this protection for cases where tons of clients are navigated
to a topic and a new post is made. This can lead to a self inflicted denial
of service if enough clients are viewing the topic.
Due to the internal security design of Discourse it is hard for a large
number of clients to share a channel where we would pass the full post body
via the message bus.
It also renames (and deprecates) triggerNewPostInStream to triggerNewPostsInStream
This allows us to load a batch of new posts cleanly, so the controller can
keep track of a backlog

* FIX: second factor cannot be enabled if SSO is enabled
If `enable_sso` setting is enabled then admin should not be able to
enable `enforce_second_factor` setting as that will lock users out.

To avoid blocking the sidekiq queue a limit of 10,000 digests per 30 minutes
is introduced.
This acts as a safety measure that makes sure we don't keep pouring oil on
a fire.
On multisites it is recommended to set the number way lower so sites do not
dominate the backlog. A reasonable default for multisites may be 100-500.
This can be controlled with the environment var
DISCOURSE_MAX_DIGESTS_ENQUEUED_PER_30_MINS_PER_SITE
See https://meta.discourse.org/t/changing-a-users-email/164512 for additional context.
Previously when an admin user changed a user's email we assumed that they would need a password reset too because they likely did not have access to their account. This proved to be incorrect, as there are other reasons a user needs admin to change their email. This PR:
* Changes the admin change email for user flow so the user is sent an email to confirm the change
* We now record who the email change request was requested by
* If the requested by user is admin and not the user we note this in the email sent to the user
* We also make the confirm change email route open to anonymous users, so it can be clicked by the user even if they do not have access to their account. If there is a logged in user we make sure the confirmation matches the current user.
Allows site administrators to pick different fonts for headings in the wizard and in their site settings. Also correctly displays the header logos in wizard previews.
Previously this site setting `embed unlisted` defaulted to false and
empty topics would be generated for embed, but those topics tend to take
up a lot of room on the topic lists.
This new default creates invisible topics by default until they receive
their first reply.
This is where they should be as far as ember is concerned. Note this is
a huge commit and we should be really careful everything continues to
work properly.
See https://meta.discourse.org/t/changing-a-users-email/164512 for context.
When admin changes an email for a user, we were incorrectly sending the password reset email to the user's old address. Also the new email does not come into effect until the reset password process is done, so this PR adds some notes to the admin to make this clearer.
This allows administrators to stop automatic redirect to an external authenticator. It only takes effect when there is a single authentication method, and the site is login_required
It's a more user-friendly alternative to the default select-kit list,
for settings that are simple lists of items (the regular list widget is
better for settings with choice options).
The site setting `search_recent_posts_size` controls the window of posts
that we will search through before trying to search through the full index
If this number is too low then the search quality can suffer a lot as recent
posts may dominate search. If the number is too high then performance will
suffer.
This attempts to find a happy medium, 1 million posts will cover the majority
of forums out there and should perform adequately.
Use the names as provided by discourse-fonts and remove the
translated strings.
It also ensures that the selected font is present in case a font will
be removed in the future.
