When creating a group membership request, there is no character
limit on the 'reason' field. This can be potentially be used by
an attacker to create enormous amount of data in the database.

This PR also makes it so `bot` (negative ID) and `system` users are always allowed
to send PMs, since the old conditional was just based on `enable_personal_messages`
This will replace `enable_personal_messages` and
`min_trust_to_send_messages`, this commit introduces
the setting `personal_message_enabled_groups`
and uses it in all places that `enable_personal_messages`
and `min_trust_to_send_messages` currently apply.
A migration is included to set `personal_message_enabled_groups`
based on the following rules:
* If `enable_personal_messages` was false, then set
`personal_message_enabled_groups` to `3`, which is
the staff auto group
* If `min_trust_to_send_messages` is not default (1)
and the above condition is false, then set the
`personal_message_enabled_groups` setting to
the appropriate auto group based on the trust level
* Otherwise just set `personal_message_enabled_groups` to
11 which is the TL1 auto group
After follow-up PRs to plugins using these old settings, we will be
able to drop the old settings from core, in the meantime I've added
DEPRECATED notices to their descriptions and added them
to the deprecated site settings list.
This commit also introduces a `_map` shortcut method definition
for all `group_list` site settings, e.g. `SiteSetting.personal_message_enabled_groups`
also has `SiteSetting.personal_message_enabled_groups_map` available,
which automatically splits the setting by `|` and converts it into
an array of integers.
Currently the only way to allow tagging on pms is to use the `allow_staff_to_tag_pms` site setting. We are removing that site setting and replacing it with `pm_tags_allowed_for_groups` which will allow for non staff tagging. It will be group based permissions instead of requiring the user to be staff.
If the existing value of `allow_staff_to_tag_pms` is `true` then we include the `staff` groups as a default for `pm_tags_allowed_for_groups`.
* FIX: Redirect if Discourse-Xhr-Redirect is present
`handleRedirect` was passed an wrong argument type (a string) instead of
a jqXHR object and missed the fields checked in condition, thus always
evaluating to `false`.
* FIX: Add `errors` field if group update confirmation
An explicit confirmation about the effect of the group update is
required if the default notification level changes. Previously, if the
confirmation was missing the API endpoint failed silently returning
a 200 response code and a `user_count` field. This change ensures that
a proper error code is returned (422), a descriptive error message and
the additional information in the `user_count` field.
This commit also refactors the API endpoint to use the
`Discourse-Xhr-Redirect` header to redirect the user if the group is
no longer visible.
It's very easy to forget to add `require 'rails_helper'` at the top of every core/plugin spec file, and omissions can cause some very confusing/sporadic errors.
By setting this flag in `.rspec`, we can remove the need for `require 'rails_helper'` entirely.
Sorting group members worked always kept the group owners at the top of
the list. This commit keeps the group owners at the top of the list only
when no order exists.
* FEATURE: Optionally send a 'noindex' header in non-canonical responses
This will be used in a SEO experiment.

Previously, a group's `default_notification_level` change will only affect the users added after it.

It used to require SiteSetting.min_trust_level_to_allow_invite to
invite a user to a group, even if the user existed and the inviter was
a group owner.
This overhauls the user interface for the group email settings management, aiming to make it a lot easier to test the settings entered and confirm they are correct before proceeding. We do this by forcing the user to test the settings before they can be saved to the database. It also includes some quality of life improvements around setting up IMAP and SMTP for our first supported provider, GMail. This PR does not remove the old group email config, that will come in a subsequent PR. This is related to https://meta.discourse.org/t/imap-support-for-group-inboxes/160588 so read that if you would like more backstory.
### UI
Both site settings of `enable_imap` and `enable_smtp` must be true to test this. You must enable SMTP first to enable IMAP.
You can prefill the SMTP settings with GMail configuration. To proceed with saving these settings you must test them, which is handled by the EmailSettingsValidator.
If there is an issue with the configuration or credentials a meaningful error message should be shown.
IMAP settings must also be validated when IMAP is enabled, before saving.
When saving IMAP, we fetch the mailboxes for that account and populate them. This mailbox must be selected and saved for IMAP to work (the feature acts as though it is disabled until the mailbox is selected and saved):
### Database & Backend
This adds several columns to the Groups table. The purpose of this change is to make it much more explicit that SMTP/IMAP is enabled for a group, rather than relying on settings not being null. Also included is an UPDATE query to backfill these columns. These columns are automatically filled when updating the group.
For GMail, we now filter the mailboxes returned. This is so users cannot use a mailbox like Sent or Trash for syncing, which would generally be disastrous.
There is a new group endpoint for testing email settings. This may be useful in the future for other places in our UI, at which point it can be extracted to a more generic endpoint or module to be included.
Over the years we accrued many spelling mistakes in the code base.
This PR attempts to fix spelling mistakes and typos in all areas of the code that are extremely safe to change
- comments
- test descriptions
- other low risk areas
This PR allows invitations to be used when the DiscourseConnect SSO is enabled for a site (`enable_discourse_connect`) and local logins are disabled. Previously invites could not be accepted with SSO enabled simply because we did not have the code paths to handle that logic.
The invitation methods that are supported include:
* Inviting people to groups via email address
* Inviting people to topics via email address
* Using invitation links generated by the Invite Users UI in the /my/invited/pending route
The flow works like this:
1. User visits an invite URL
2. The normal invitation validations (redemptions/expiry) happen at that point
3. We store the invite key in a secure session
4. The user clicks "Accept Invitation and Continue" (see below)
5. The user is redirected to /session/sso then to the SSO provider URL then back to /session/sso_login
6. We retrieve the invite based on the invite key in secure session. We revalidate the invitation. We show an error to the user if it is not valid. An additional check here for invites with an email specified is to check the SSO email matches the invite email
7. If the invite is OK we create the user via the normal SSO methods
8. We redeem the invite and activate the user. We clear the invite key in secure session.
9. If the invite had a topic we redirect the user there, otherwise we redirect to /
Note that we decided for SSO-based invites the `must_approve_users` site setting is ignored, because the invite is a form of pre-approval, and because regular non-staff users cannot send out email invites or generally invite to the forum in this case.
Also deletes some group invite checks as per https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/12353
If a list of email addresses is pasted into a group’s Add Members form
that has one or more email addresses of users who already belong to the
group and all other email addresses are for users who do not yet exist
on the forum then no invites were being sent. This commit ensures that
we send invites to new users.
Issue originally reported in https://meta.discourse.org/t/bypass-sso-by-adding-unkown-email-to-group/177339
Inviting people via email address to a group when SSO is enabled (or local logins are disabled) led to a situation where user records were being created bypassing single sign-on.
We already prevent that in most places. This adds required checks to `GroupsController`.
Since 9e4ed03, moderators can view groups with visibility level set to "Group owners, members and moderators".
This fixes an issue where moderators can see the group in /g but then get a 404 when clicking on individual groups.
Currently, if a group's visibility is set to "Group owners, members" then the mods can't view those group pages. The same rule is applied for members visibility setting too.
This reverts commit 7fc7090. And fixed the spec test fails.
When someone wants to add > 1000 users at once they will hit a timeout.
Therefore, we should introduce limit and inform the user when limit is exceeded.
Enabling the moderators_manage_categories_and_groups site setting will allow moderator users to create/manage groups.
* show New Group form to moderators
* Allow moderators to update groups and read logs, where appropriate
* Rename site setting from create -> manage
* improved tests
* Migration should rename old log entries
* Log group changes, even if those changes mean you can no longer see the group
* Slight reshuffle
* RouteTo /g if they no longer have permissions to view group
