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.
Currently `Topic#pm_topic_count` is a count of all personal messages tagged for a given tag. As a result, any user with access to PM tags can poll a sensitive tag to determine if a new personal message has been created using that tag even if the user does not have access to the personal message. We classify this as a minor leak in sensitive information.
With this commit, `Topic#pm_topic_count` is hidden from users by default unless the `display_personal_messages_tag_counts` site setting is enabled.
* FEATURE: allow restricting duplication in search index
This introduces the site setting `max_duplicate_search_index_terms`.
Using this number we limit the amount of duplication in our search index.
This allows us to more correctly weight title searches, so bloated posts
don't unfairly bump to the top of search results.
This feature is completely disabled by default and behind a site setting
We will experiment with it first. Note entire search index must be rebuilt
for it to take effect.

Many users seems surprised by prefix matching in search leading to
unexpected results.
Over the years we always would return results starting with a search term
and not expect exact matches.
Meaning a search for `abra` would find `abracadabra`
This introduces the Site Setting `enable_search_prefix_matching` which
defaults to true. (behavior unchanged)
We plan to experiment on select sites with exact matches to see if the
results are less surprising
Currently, `Tag#topic_count` is a count of all regular topics regardless of whether the topic is in a read restricted category or not. As a result, any users can technically poll a sensitive tag to determine if a new topic is created in a category which the user has not excess to. We classify this as a minor leak in sensitive information.
The following changes are introduced in this commit:
1. Introduce `Tag#public_topic_count` which only count topics which have been tagged with a given tag in public categories.
2. Rename `Tag#topic_count` to `Tag#staff_topic_count` which counts the same way as `Tag#topic_count`. In other words, it counts all topics tagged with a given tag regardless of the category the topic is in. The rename is also done so that we indicate that this column contains sensitive information.
3. Change all previous spots which relied on `Topic#topic_count` to rely on `Tag.topic_column_count(guardian)` which will return the right "topic count" column to use based on the current scope.
4. Introduce `SiteSetting.include_secure_categories_in_tag_counts` site setting to allow site administrators to always display the tag topics count using `Tag#staff_topic_count` instead.
Specifying wildcard characters which also happen to be regex
meta characters for `auto_approve_email_domains`, `allowed_email_domains`
and `blocked_email_domains` site settings currently breaks email
validation.
This change prevents these characters from being specified for these
site settings. It does this by switching the site setting type
from `list` to `host_list`. The `host_list` validator checks for these
characters.
In addition, this change also improves the site setting descriptions and
introduces a migration to fix existing records.
The `enable_new_notifications_menu` site setting allows sites that have
`navigation_menu` set to `legacy` to use the redesigned notifications
menu before switching to the new sidebar navigation menu.
There are various performance issues with the Canvas in iOS Safari
that are causing crashes when processing images with spikes of over 100%
CPU usage. The cause of this is unknown, but profiling points to
CanvasRenderingContext2D.getImageData() and
CanvasRenderingContext2D.drawImage().
Until Safari makes some progress with OffscreenCanvas or other
alternatives we cannot support this workflow. We will revisit in 6
months.
This is gated behind the hidden `composer_ios_media_optimisation_image_enabled`
site setting for people who really still want to try using this.
This feature is stable enough now to make it the default going forward
for new sites. Existing sites that have not yet set enable_experimental_hashtag_autocomplete
to `true` will have it set to `false` for their site settings, which was the old default.

This PR removes the limit added to max_users_notified_per_group_mention during #19034 and improve the performance when expanding mentions for large channel or groups by removing some N+1 queries and making the whole process async.
* Fully async chat message notifications
* Remove mention setting limit and get rid of N+1 queries
* DEV: Skip push notifications for active online users
Currently, users with active push subscriptions get push notifications
regardless of their "presence" on the site.
This change introduces a `push_notification_time_window_mins`
site setting which is used in conjunction with a user's `last_seen_at` to
determine if push notifications should be sent. A user is considered to
be actively online if their `last_seen_at` is within `push_notification_time_window_mins`
minutes. `push_notification_time_window_mins` is set to 10 by default.
* DEV: Remove client param for push_notification_time_window_mins site setting

* DEV: Remove enable_whispers site setting
Whispers are enabled as long as there is at least one group allowed to
whisper, see whispers_allowed_groups site setting.
* DEV: Always enable whispers for admins if at least one group is allowed.
* FEATURE: Add support for desktop push notifications in core
Default to push for live notifications on desktop if available and
`enable_desktop_push_notifications` site setting set to true.
This removes the need for desktop-push-notifications plugin.
* DEV: Ensure live notifications are enabled explicitly
Allow a user with push notification access who has directly
enabled notifications via the browser settings to trigger push subscription
flow.
FEATURE: Chat and Sidebar are now on by default
- Set the sidebar site setting to be enabled by default
- Set the chat site setting to be enabled by default
- Updated existing specs that assumed the original default
- Use a migration to keep old defaults for existing sites
This new site setting replaces the
`enable_experimental_sidebar_hamburger` and `enable_sidebar` site
settings as the sidebar feature exits the experimental phase.
Note that we're replacing this without depreciation since the previous
site setting was considered experimental.
Internal Ref: /t/86563
* FEATURE: Enforce mention limits for chat messages
The first part of these changes adds a new setting called `max_mentions_per_chat_message`, which skips notifications when the message contains too many mentions. It also respects the `max_users_notified_per_group_mention` setting
and skips notifications if expanding a group mention would exceed it.
We also include a new component to display JIT warning for these limits to the user while composing a message.
* Simplify ignoring/muting filter in chat_notifier
* Post-send warnings for unsent warnings
* Improve pluralization
* Address review feedback
* Fix test
* Address second feedback round
* Third round of feedback

In an effort to modernize our codebase to the latest Ember version we have selected the Topic Timeline as a candidate to be refactored. The topic timeline component was originally built with `Widgets` and this PR will upgrade it to `Glimmer Components`.
The refactored timeline is hidden by default behind a group flag, `SiteSetting.enable_experimental_topic_timeline_groups`. Being part of a group included in this site setting will make the new timeline available for testing.
## Other points of interest
This PR introduces a `Draggable Modifier` available to all components, which will take the place of the existing _drag functionality_ exclusive to widgets.
It can be included like so:
```
{{draggable didStartDrag=@didStartDrag didEndDrag=@didEndDrag dragMove=@dragMove }}
```
This changes the hashtag search to first do a lookup to find
results where the slug exactly matches the
search term. Now when we search for hashtags, the
exact matches will be found first and put at the top of
the results.
`ChatChannelFetcher` has also been modified here to allow
for more options for performance -- we do not need to
query DM channels for secured IDs when looking up or searching
channels for hashtags, since they should never show in
results there (they have no slugs). Nor do we need to include
the channel archive records.
Also changes the limit of hashtag results to 20 by default
with a hidden site setting, and makes it so the scroll for the
results is overflowed.
The hidden site setting `suppress_secured_categories_from_admin` will
suppress visibility of categories without explicit access from admins
in a few key areas (category drop downs and topic lists)
It is not intended to be a security wall since admins can amend any site
setting. Instead it is feature that allows hiding the categories from the
UI.
Admins will still be able to see topics in categories without explicit
access using direct URLs or flags.

* FEATURE: Default Composer Category Site Setting
- Create the default_composer_category site setting
- Replace general_category_id logic for auto selecting the composer
category
- Prevent Uncategorized from being selected if not allowed
- Add default_composer_category option to seeded categories
- Create a migration to populate the default_composer_category site
setting if there is a general_category_id populated
- Added some tests
* Add missing translation for the new site setting
* fix some js tests
* Just check that the header value is null
Previously, we didn't have a site-wide setting to set the default behavior for user profile visibility and user presence features. But we already have a user preference for that.
The previous implementation would attempt to fetch groups using the end-user's Google auth token. This only worked for admin accounts, or users with 'delegated' access to the `admin.directory.group.readonly` API.
This commit changes the approach to use a single 'service account' for fetching the groups. This removes the need to add permissions to all regular user accounts. I'll be updating the [meta docs](https://meta.discourse.org/t/226850) with instructions on setting up the service account.
This is technically a breaking change in behavior, but the existing implementation was marked experimental, and is currently unusable in production google workspace environments.
This commit introduces a new framework for building user tutorials as
popups using the Tippy JS library. Currently, the new framework is used
to replace the old notification spotlight and tips and show a new one
related to the topic timeline.
All popups follow the same structure and have a title, a description and
two buttons for either dismissing just the current tip or all of them
at once.
The state of all seen popups is stored in a user option. Updating
skip_new_user_tips will automatically update the list of seen popups
accordingly.
This initial PR just adds a enable_experimental_hashtag_autocomplete
setting, and related JS & HBR files, replacing direct setup of
the autocomplete within d-editor and instead using the new
lib/hashtag-autocomplete. This is the beginning of preparations
to allow other data sources to be added to this autocomplete,
as well as a redesign of the menu and rendered tags in the composer
preview and posts.
Follow up to e62e93f83a.
It's confusing and unexpected that deprecated settings
unconditionally change the new setting's value via the
`SiteSettingsController`, even if `override` was set to `false`,
a follow-up PR will correct the issue in `SiteSettingsController`.
This can no longer be used from the user interface and could be used to
generate useless topic invites notifications. This commit adds site
setting max_topic_invitations_per_minute to prevent invite spam.
* FEATURE: Make General the default category
* Set general as the default category in the composer model instead
* use semicolon
* Enable allow_uncategorized_topics in create_post spec helper for now
* Check if general_category_id is set
* Enable allow_uncategorized_topics for test env
* Provide an option to the create_post helper to not set allow_uncategorized_topics
* Add tests to check that category… is not present and that General is selected automatically
By default, only staff members have to confirm their old email when
changing it. This commit adds a site setting that when enabled will
always ask the user to confirm old email.
This commit renames all secure_media related settings to secure_uploads_* along with the associated functionality.
This is being done because "media" does not really cover it, we aren't just doing this for images and videos etc. but for all uploads in the site.
Additionally, in future we want to secure more types of uploads, and enable a kind of "mixed mode" where some uploads are secure and some are not, so keeping media in the name is just confusing.
This also keeps compatibility with the `secure-media-uploads` path, and changes new
secure URLs to be `secure-uploads`.
Deprecated settings:
* secure_media -> secure_uploads
* secure_media_allow_embed_images_in_emails -> secure_uploads_allow_embed_images_in_emails
* secure_media_max_email_embed_image_size_kb -> secure_uploads_max_email_embed_image_size_kb
* FEATURE: add composer warning when user haven't been seen in a long time
When a user creates a PM and adds a recipient that hasn't been seen in a
long time then we'll now show a warning in composer indicating that the
user hasn't been seen in a long time.
By default, we won't include associated account ids in current user serializer. If the new hidden site setting `include_associated_account_ids` is enabled then we will add it in the serializer.
