Adds a new `[grid]` tag that can arrange images (or other media) into a grid in posts.
The grid defaults to a 3-column with a few exceptions:
- if there are only 2 or 4 items, it defaults to a 2-column grid (because it generally looks better)
- on mobile, it defaults to a 2-column grid
- if there is only one item, the grid has no effect
What this change?
We are currently not fully satisfied with the current way to edit the
categories and tags that appears in the sidebar where the user is
redirected to the tracking preferences tab in the user's profile causing
the user to lose context of the current page. In addition, the dropdown
to select categories or tags limits the amount of information we can
display.
Since editing or adding a custom categories section is already using a
modal, we have decided to switch editing the categories and tags that
appear in the sidebar to use a modal as well.
This commit ships a first pass of the edit categories modal such that we
can keep the commit small and reviewable. The incomplete nature of the
feature is also reflected in the fact that the feature is hidden behind
a new `new_edit_sidebar_categories_tags_interface_groups` site setting.
AWS recommends running buckets without ACLs, and to use resource policies to manage access control instead.
This is not a bad idea, because S3 ACLs are whack, and while resource policies are also whack, they're a more constrained form of whack.
Further, some compliance regimes get antsy if you don't go with the vendor's recommended settings, and arguing that you need to enable ACLs on a bucket just to store images in there is more hassle than it's worth.
The new site setting (s3_use_acls) cannot be disabled when secure
uploads is enabled -- the latter relies on private ACLs for security
at this point in time. We may want to reexamine this in future.
* FEATURE: reduce avatar sizes to 6 from 20
This PR introduces 3 changes:
1. SiteSetting.avatar_sizes, now does what is says on the tin.
previously it would introduce a large number of extra sizes, to allow for
various DPIs. Instead we now trust the admin with the size list.
2. When `avatar_sizes` changes, we ensure consistency and remove resized
avatars that are not longer allowed per site setting. This happens on the
12 hourly job and limited out of the box to 20k cleanups per cycle, given
this may reach out to AWS 20k times to remove things.
3.Our default avatar sizes are now "24|48|72|96|144|288" these sizes were
very specifically picked to limit amount of bluriness introduced by webkit.
Our avatars are already blurry due to 1px border, so this corrects old blur.
This change heavily reduces storage required by forums which simplifies
site moves and more.

Privacy Policy and Terms of Service topics are no longer created by
default for communities that have not set a company name. For this
reason, some URLs were pointing to 404 page.
Legal topics, such as the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy topics
do not make sense if the entity creating the community is not a company.
These topics will be created and updated only when the company name is
present and deleted when it is not.
The welcome topic user tip was for admins only, but in general, user
tips should be used for guiding new users through the features that
Discourse offers. For this reason, we decided to remove the user tip.
This commit also includes a few more copy tweaks to the welcome topic.
added site toggle functionality through site settings
added tests to implemented feature
Introduced suggested correction
renamed find_new_topic method and deleted click_new_topic_button method
Currently the /new-category url can be accessed by moderators, regardless of whether the Site Setting for moderators_manage_categories_and_groups is true or false.
On top of this, non authorized users can also access this page but shows errors (no 404 loaded).
Since the 404 redirect happens within Ember, we need to allow the site setting value to be accessed within JS.
After this change all non admin users will see a 404 for this route, the exception being moderators if the moderators_manage_categories_and_groups setting has a value of true.

* DEV: move sidebar community section to database
Before, community section was hard-coded. In the future, we are planning to allow admins to edit it. Therefore, it has to be moved to database to `custom_sections` table.
Few steps and simplifications has to be made:
- custom section was hidden behind `enable_custom_sidebar_sections` feature flag. It has to be deleted so all forums, see community section;
- migration to add `section_type` column to sidebar section to show it is a special type;
- migration to add `segment` column to sidebar links to determine if link should be displayed in primary section or in more section;
- simplify more section to have one level only (secondary section links are merged);
- ensure that links like `everything` are correctly tracking state;
- make user an anonymous links position consistence. For example, from now on `faq` link for user and anonymous is visible in more tab;
- delete old community-section template.
Responding to negative behaviour tends to solicit more of the same. Common wisdom states: "don't feed the trolls".
This change codifies that advice by introducing a new nudge when hitting the reply button on a flagged post. It will be shown if either the current user, or two other users (configurable via a site setting) have flagged the post.
* FEATURE: add a setting to allowlist DiscourseConnect return path domains
This commit adds a site setting to allowlist DiscourseConnect return
path domains. The setting needs supports exact domain or wildcard
character (*) to allow for any domain as return path.
* Add more specs to clarify what is allowed in site setting
* Update setting description to explain what is allowed
This feature will allow sites to define which emoji are not allowed. Emoji in this list should be excluded from the set we show in the core emoji picker used in the composer for posts when emoji are enabled. And they should not be allowed to be chosen to be added to messages or as reactions in chat.
This feature prevents denied emoji from appearing in the following scenarios:
- topic title and page title
- private messages (topic title and body)
- inserting emojis into a chat
- reacting to chat messages
- using the emoji picker (composer, user status etc)
- using search within emoji picker
It also takes into account the various ways that emojis can be accessed, such as:
- emoji autocomplete suggestions
- emoji favourites (auto populates when adding to emoji deny list for example)
- emoji inline translations
- emoji skintones (ie. for certain hand gestures)
This adds a SiteSetting, which when enabled, creates a small_action post for tag/category changes to the topic. It uses `topic.add_moderator_post, and passes raw text in, to describe the change.
Invite only and Discourse connect could not be enabled at the same time
because of some legacy reason. This is a follow up commit to ce04db8,
355d51a and 40f6ceb.
Way back when this was introduced way back in b96c10a903
I didn't have any frame of reference for what these max rate
limit numbers should be, so 10 seemed like a reasonable limit
until a real world case where this did not make sense came
along.
The time has come.
Moving these into site settings, which are hidden since in most
cases there is no need to change these.
What is the problem?
We have a hidden site setting `show_category_definitions_in_topic_lists`
which is set to false by default. What this means is that category
definition topics are not shown in the topic list by default. Only the
category definition topic for the category being viewed will be shown.
However, we have a bug where we would show that a category has new
topics when a new child category along with its category definition
topic is created even though the topic list does not list the child
category's category definition topic.
What is the fix here?
This commit fixes the problem by shipping down an additional
`is_category_topic` attribute in `TopicTrackingStateItemSerializer` when
the `show_category_definitions_in_topic_lists` site setting has been set
to false. With the new attribute, we can then exclude counting child
categories' category definition topics when counting new and unread
counts for a category.
This commit introduces a few experimental changes to the New topics list and "Everything" link in the sidebar:
1. Make the New topics list include unread topics
2. Make the Everything section in the sidebar link to the New topics list (`/new`)
3. Remove "unread" or "new" text next to the count and keep the count
4. The count is a sum of new and unread topics counts
All of these of changes are behind an off-by-default feature flag. I've not written extensive tests for these changes because they're highly experimental.
Internal topic: t/77234.
With the introduction of the sidebar navigation menu, the design team at
Discourse redesigned the user profile navigation to better coexist with
the sidebar.
- Reduce duplication of terms in post index from unlimited to 6. This will
result in reduced index size and reduced weighting for posts containing
a huge amount of duplicate terms. (Eg: a post containing "sam sam sam sam
sam sam sam sam", will index as "sam sam sam sam sam sam", only including
the word up to 6 times.) This corrects a flaw where title weighting could
be ignored.
- Prioritize exact matches of words in titles. Our search always performs
a prefix match. However we want to give special weight to exact title matches
meaning that a search for "sum" will find topics such as "the sum of us" vs
"summer in spring".
- Pick up fixes to our search algorithm which are missing from old indexes.
Specifically pick up the fix that indexes URLs properly. (`https://happy.com`
was stemmed to `happi` in keywords and then was not searchable)
see also:
https://meta.discourse.org/t/refinements-to-search-being-tested-on-meta/254158
Indexing will take a while and work in batches, in the background.
Remove the per user groups based site setting in favor of a global site setting as we want to roll the glimmer topic timeline out to anon users as well as site users.
- Add `enable_experimental_topic_timeline` site setting
- Remove `enable_experimental_topic_timeline_groups` site setting
Allows users to configure their own custom sidebar sections with links withing Discourse instance. Links can be passed as relative path, for example "/tags" or full URL.
Only path is saved in DB, so when Discourse domain is changed, links will be still valid.
Feature is hidden behind SiteSetting.enable_custom_sidebar_sections. This hidden setting determines the group which members have access to this new feature.
Currently, when doing `@mention` for users we have 0 tolerance for typos and misspellings.
With this patch, if a user search doesn't return enough results we go and use `pg_trgm` features to try and find more matches based on trigrams of usernames and names.
It also introduces GiST indexes on those fields in order to improve performance of this search, going from 130ms down to 15ms in my tests.
This is all gated in a feature flag and can be enabled by running `SiteSetting.user_search_similar_results = true` in the rails console.
The new `prioritize_exact_search_match` can be used to force the search
algorithm to prioritize exact term matches in title when ranking results.
This is scoped narrowly to titles for cases such as a topic titled:
"organisation chart" and a search of "org chart".
If we scoped this wider, all discussion about "org chart" would float to
the top and leave a very common title de-prioritized.
This is a hidden site setting and it has some performance impact due
to double ranking.
That said, performance impact is somewhat mitigated cause ranking on
title alone is a very cheap operation.
