- destroyDraft which is called when we cancel a draft is now async,
removing race conditions when you click "reply" to a post and are
already editing. We used to trigger double dialogs for cancelling
drafts which was confusing.
- Remove reply as new topic / reply as pm keys, they are no longer
used and only caused confustion. For example we used to pop up a
warning when you are composing a reply and flick to reply as
new topic
- Remove createTopic key, this was a bug that proliferated. Whenever
creating a topic via the C shortcut or clicking on new topic on full
screen search the correct new topic draft key will be used
consistently
- When abandoning an edit we now say "Are you sure you want to discard
your changes" (instead of abandon your post which is confusing)
- 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
The 'automatically set primary group' checkbox looked like it was associated with the email membership. In fact, it applies to all members who join the group. This commit moves it next to the 'automatic trust level' setting, and puts them both under an 'Effects' heading
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.
This reverts commit ab74a50d85.
We really want to upgrade redis, but discovered some edge cases
around failover we need to test.
Holding off on the upgrade till a bit more testing happens
* 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
From the better_errors README:
> Better Errors works by leaving a lot of context in server process memory. If you're using a web server that runs multiple "workers" it's likely that a second request (as happens when you click on a stack frame) will hit a different worker. That worker won't have the necessary context in memory, and you'll see a Session Expired message.
After a small conversation, we decided that we can set `public_file_server.enabled` to false in the `test` environment to have the same value as `production`.
Post-zeitwerk, rails has deprecated autoloading modules during
initialization and forces all autoloaded modules to be reloaded after
initialization.
Requiring the file explicitly prevents autoloading and therefore
prevents the state on SiteSetting being trashed which was causing the
problem here.
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.
Using popups is becoming increasingly rare. Full page redirects are already used on mobile, and for some providers. This commit removes all logic related to popup authentication, leaving only the full page redirect method.
For more info, see https://meta.discourse.org/t/do-we-need-popups-for-login/127988
We preload to ensure as much memory as possible is reused from unicorn master
to various workers using copy-on-write (sidekiq, unicorn)
This migrates the preloading code into the Discourse module for easier
reuse and adds 3 notable preloading changes
1. We attempt to localize a string on each site, ensuring we warmup
the i18n
2. We preload all our templates (compiling .erb to class)
3. We warm-up our search tokenizer which uses cppjieba which is a large
memory consumer, this will only cause a warmup on CJK sites or sites with
the special site setting enabled.
* FEATURE: Added input for name when creating a new authenticator in user preferences
* FEATURE: Added placeholders to authenticator inputs
* Ran prettier on second-factor-add-totp.js.es6
* 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
* Fix broken security key 2FA on mobile login.hbs
* Show nicer error message when a security key already exists
* [COPY] Disable -> Delete for security key editing
* Standardize UI elements in 2FA prefs password confirmation
* Minor fixes to label location for resetPasswordProgress
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).
If dashboard advice has already been acted on, an admin may want to find out what the advice was, who acted on it, and when. Linking to the staff action logs should help in tracking down this information.
The current copy has caused some confusion that admins can only create 5 topics or 30 posts. Update copy to make it clearer this is a recommended minimum, not a limit.
All admins receive the Dashboard Advice PM. If one admin takes action on the advice, future admins who follow the link in the PM will see no advice on the dashboard. This has caused some confusion, so we've updated the text to make this clearer.
This renames the DISCOURSE_ENV_HOST var @eviltrout introduced in 95a9a544
to DISCOURSE_ENV_HOSTS and allows for a comma delimited list of hosts
This is useful for testing plugins and customized host names
This makes sure that all processes that fork off the master have a fully
operation schema cache.
In Rails 6, schema cache is now bolted to the connection pool. This change
ensures the cache on all pools is fully populated prior to forking.
The bolting of cache to connection pool does lead to some strange cases
where a connection can "steal" the cache from another connection, which
can cause stuff to possibly hang or deadlock. This change minimizes the risk
of this happening cause it is already primed.
We make a STRONG assumption that the schema is always the same on all sites
when we spin up a multisite cluster.
Rails 6 seems to introduce a whitelist of allowed hosts. I personally
use `dev.local` for development and this no longer works.
This introduces a new ENV variable, `DISCOURSE_DEV_HOST`. If present,
it will whitelist that host for development mode.
* Adjustments to pass specs on Rails 6.0.0
* Use classic autoloader instead of Zeitwerk
* Update Rails 6.0.0 deprecated methods
* Rails 6.0.0 not allowing column with integer name
* Drop freedom_patches/rails6.rb
* Default value for trigger_transactional_callbacks? is true
* Bump rspec-rails version to 4.0.0.beta2
New site setting: `embed_any_origin` that will send postMessages to
wildcard origins `*` instead of the referer.
Most of the time you won't want to do this, so the setting is default to
`false`. However, there are certain situations where you want to allow
embedding to send post messages when there is no HTTP REFERER.
For example, if you created a native mobile app and you wanted to embed a list
of Discourse topics as HTML. In the code your HTML would be a
static file/string, which would not be able to send a referer. In this
case, the site setting will allow the embed to work.
From a security standpoint we currently only use `postMessage` to send
data about the size of the HTML document and scroll position, so it
should be enable if required with minimal security ramifications.
* Extract QuickAccessPanel from UserNotifications.
* FEATURE: Quick access panels in user menu.
This feature adds quick access panels for bookmarks and personal
messages. It allows uses to browse recent items directly in the user
menu, without being redirected to the full pages.
* REFACTOR: Use QuickAccessItem for messages.
Reusing `DefaultNotificationItem` feels nice but it actually requires a
lot of extra work that is not needed for a quick access item.
Also, `DefaultNotificationItem` shows an incorrect tooptip ("unread
private message"), and it is not trivial to remove / override that.
* Use a plain JS object instead.
An Ember object was required when `DefaultNotificationItem` was used.
* Prefix instead suffix `_` for private helpers.
* Set to null instead of deleting object keys.
JavaScript engines can optimize object property access based on the
object’s shape. https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/shapes-ics
* Change trivial try/catch to one-liners.
* Return the promise in case needs to be waited on.
* Refactor showAll to a link with href
* Store `emptyStatePlaceholderItemText` in state.
* Store items in Session singleton instead.
We can drop `staleItems` (and `findStaleItems`) altogether. Because
`(old) items === staleItems` when switching back to a quick access
panel.
* Add `limit` parameter to the `user_actions` API.
* Explicitly import Session instead.
* 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.
This commit introduces 2 features:
1. DISCOURSE_COMPRESS_ANON_CACHE (true|false, default false): this allows
you to optionally compress the anon cache body entries in Redis, can be
useful for high load sites with Redis that lives on a separate server to
to webs
2. DISCOURSE_ANON_CACHE_STORE_THRESHOLD (default 2), only pop entries into
redis if we observe them more than N times. This avoids situations where
a crawler can walk a big pile of topics and store them all in Redis never
to be used. Our default anon cache time for topics is only 60 seconds. Anon
cache is in place to avoid the "slashdot" effect where a single topic is
hit by 100s of people in one minute.
* FIX: User should get notified when a post is deleted
* FEATURE: Notify posters when restoring flagged posts
* Fix typo

This reverts commit e805d44965.
We now have mechanisms in place to ensure heartbeat will always
be scheduled even if the scheduler is overloaded per: 098f938b
* 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
Under extreme load on large databases certain regular jobs can take quite
a while to run. We need to ensure we never starve a sidekiq from running
mini scheduler, cause without it we are unable to queue stuff such as
heartbeat jobs.
- Adds support for iOS Universal Links via an `apple-app-site-association` endpoint
Adds support for Google Digital Asset Links at the `.well-known/assetlinks.json` endpoint

This reverts commit 39c31a3d76.
Sorry about this, we have decided againse supporting 0-RTT directly in
core, this can be supported with similar hacks to this commit in a
plugin.
That said, we recommend against using a 0-RTT proxy for the Discourse
app due to inherit risk of replay attacks.
Previously, a regular user could not edit the title or category
of a topic if a hidden tag had already been applied.
This also stops hidden tag names from leaking in the error message.
* 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
This adds a 1 minute rate limit to all JS error reporting per IP. Previously
we would only use the global rate limit.
This also introduces DISCOURSE_ENABLE_JS_ERROR_REPORTING, if it is set to
false then no JS error reporting will be allowed on the site.
* FEATURE: Incorporate PWA install prompt into Discourse UI
This is mainly done so Discourse forums stop nagging people to install
on the very first visits to a website.
We will prevent the native install "mini-info" bar from ever appearing,
capture the event that pops with it, and delay it until the user meets
our criteria, which currently is trust_level 1.
If the event happens and the user meets our criteria we show a Discourse
alert banner proposing the install to the user. Dismissal of the banner
is recorded so the user ins't bothered anymore on the same device.

Previously the default stack suppressor in rack-mini-profiler was excluding

This made islolating issues more complicated cause you needed to defer to
