The `TopicCreator` class has a `skip_validations` option that can force-create a topic without performing permission checks or validation rules. However, at the moment it doesn't skip validations that are related to tags, so topics that are created by the system or by some scrip can still fail if they use tags. This commit makes the `TopicCreator` class skip all tags-related checks if the `skip_validations` is specified.
Internal topic: t/124280.
This commit removes the 'experimental_preconnect_link_header' site setting, and the 'preload_link_header' site setting, and introduces two new global settings: early_hint_header_mode and early_hint_header_name.
We don't actually send 103 Early Hint responses from Discourse. However, upstream proxies can be configured to cache a response header from the app and use that to send an Early Hint response to future clients.
- `early_hint_header_mode` specifies the mode for the early hint header. Can be nil (disabled), "preconnect" (lists just CDN domains) or "preload" (lists all assets).
- `early_hint_header_name` specifies which header name to use for the early hint. Defaults to "Link", but can be changed to support different proxy mechanisms.

rather than making developers provide the plugin path
name (which may not always be the same depending on
dir names and git cloning etc) we can infer the plugin
dir from the caller in plugin_file_from_fixtures
Why this change?
This is a follow-up to 86b2e3aa3e.
Basically, we want to allow people to select more than 1 category as well.
What does this change do?
1. Change `type: category` to `type: categories` and support `min` and `max`
validations for `type: categories`.
2. Fix the `<SchemaThemeSetting::Types::Categories>` component to support the
`min` and `max` validations and switch it to use the `<CategorySelector>` component
instead of the `<CategoryChooser>` component which only supports selecting one category.
This enables the following in Discourse AI
```
plugin.register_modifier(:chat_allowed_bot_user_ids) do |user_ids, guardian|
if guardian.user
mentionables = AiPersona.mentionables(user: guardian.user)
allowed_bot_ids = mentionables.map { |mentionable| mentionable[:user_id] }
user_ids.concat(allowed_bot_ids)
end
user_ids
end
```
some bots that are id < 0 need to be discoverable in search otherwise people can not talk to them.

At the moment, all topic `?page=` views are served with exactly identical page titles. If you search for something which is mentioned many times in the same Discourse topic, this makes for some very hard-to-understand search results! All the result titles are exactly the same, with no indication of why there are multiple results showing.
This commit adds a `- Page #` suffix to the titles in this situation. This lines up with our existing strategy for topic-list pagination.
When crawlers visit a post-specific URL like `/t/-/{topic-id}/{post-number}`, we use the canonical to direct them to the appropriate crawler-optimised paginated view (e.g. `?page=3`).
However, analysis of google results shows that the post-specific URLs are still being included in the index. Google doesn't tell us exactly why this is happening. However, as a general rule, 'A large portion of the duplicate page's content should be present on the canonical version'.
In our previous implementation, this wasn't 100% true all the time. That's because a request for a post-specific URL would include posts 'surrounding' that post, and won't exactly conform to the page boundaries which are used in the canonical version of the page. Essentially: in some cases, the content of the post-specific pages would include many posts which were not present on the canonical paginated version.
This commit aims to resolve that problem by simplifying the implementation. Instead of rendering posts surrounding the target post_number, we will only render the target post, and include a link to 'show post in topic'. With this new implementation, 100% of the post-specific page content will be present on the canonical paginated version, which will hopefully mean google reduces their indexing of the non-canonical post-specific pages.
This allows plugins to also easily read fixture
files for tests, rather than having to do stuff
like this:
```
File.open(File.join(__dir__, "../../../fixtures/100x100.jpg"))
```
Why this change?
Previously, we were preloading the necessary metadata for
`adminCustomizeThemes.show.schema` route in the
`adminCustomizeThemes.show` route. This is wasteful because we're
loading data upfront when the objects setting editor may not be used.
This change also lays the ground work for a future commit where we need
to be shipping down additional metadata which may further add to the
payload.
This commit mainly improves three things:
- slide up/down animation of the modals on mobile, also allowing swipe down to close the modal
- body scroll locked modals, it means that only the body of the modal can scroll
- a new `<:headerPrimaryAction>` block for `d-modal` which when present will move the cancel button to the left of the modal title, and this primary action to the right of the title
Why this change?
While working on the tag selector for the theme object editor, I
realised that there is an extremely high possibility that users might want to select
more than one tag. By supporting the ability to select more than one
tag, it also means that we get support for a single tag for free as
well.
What does this change do?
1. Change `type: tag` to `type: tags` and support `min` and `max`
validations for `type: tags`.
2. Fix the `<SchemaThemeSetting::Types::Tags>` component to support the
`min` and `max` validations
Why this change?
Fortunately or unfortunately in Discourse core, we mainly use `Tag#name`
to look up tags and not its id. This assumption is built into the
frontend as well so we need to use the tag's name instead of the id
here.
Followup 3094f32ff5,
this fixes an issue with the logic in this commit where
we were returning false if any of the conditionals here
were false, regardless of the type of `obj`, where we should
have only done this if `obj` was a `PostAction`, which lead
us to return false in cases where we were checking if the
user could edit their own post as anon.
When "lazy load categories" is enabled and parent_category_id was set,
the query fetching categories contained a contradiction filtering both
by parent_category_id and parent_category_id = NULL.
Previously, we had an instant redirect back to the homepage, and clicking avatars would do nothing. This made things feel 'broken' for anon when 'hide_user_profiles_from_public' was enabled.
This commit does a few things to resolve this:
1. Improve our 'exception' system for routes so that developers can deliberately trigger it without an ajax error
2. Improve 'exception' system so that the browser URL bar is updated correctly, and the 'back' button works as expected
3. Replace the redirect-to-home with an 'access denied' error page, with specific copy for 'You must log in to view user profiles'
4. Update user-card logic to display this new page instead of doing nothing on click
Previously, when crawlers triggered a Discourse::InvalidAccess exception, they would be served the full Ember SPA. The SPA is not optimized for crawling, and so this is likely to cause problems for sites. This issue is particularly problematic when user profiles are hidden from the public via the `hide_user_profiles_from_public` setting, because the crawler would end up being 'soft-redirected' to the homepage in the SPA.
Why this change?
In our schema, we support the `min_length` and `max_length` validation
rules like so:
```
some_objects_setting
type: objects
schema:
name: some_object
properties:
title:
type: string
validations:
min_length: 1
max_length: 10
```
While the validations used to validate the objects on the server side,
we should also add client side validation for better UX.
This commit changes the API for registering the plugin config
page nav configuration from a server-side to a JS one;
there is no need for it to be server-side.
It also makes some changes to allow for 2 different ways of displaying
navigation for plugin pages, depending on complexity:
* TOP - This is the best mode for simple plugins without a lot of different
custom configuration pages, and it reuses the grey horizontal nav bar
already used for admins.
* SIDEBAR - This is better for more complex plugins; likely this won't
be used in the near future, but it's readily available if needed
There is a new AdminPluginConfigNavManager service too to manage which
plugin the admin is actively viewing, otherwise we would have trouble
hiding the main plugin nav for admins when viewing a single plugin.
Why this change?
The test registers a category custom field to preload but doesn't remove
it at the end of the test causing a state leak which can result in other
tests failing.
All our link validation, and conversion from url -> route/model/query is expensive and prone to bugs. Instead, if people enter a link, we can just use it as-is.
Originally all this extra logic was added to handle unusual situations like `/safe-mode`, `/my/...`, etc. However, all of these are now handled correctly by our Ember router, so there is no need for it.
Now, we just pass the user-supplied `href` directly to the SectionLink component, and let Ember handle routing to it when clicked.
The only functional change here is that we no longer validate internal links by parsing them with the Ember router. But I'd argue this is fine, because the previous logic would cause both false positives (e.g. `/t/123` would be valid, even if topic 123 doesn't exist), and false negatives (for routes which are server-side only, like the new AI share pages).
We were incorrectly using `return` in a block which was causing exceptions at runtime. These exceptions were not causing much issues as they are in defer block.
While working on writing a test for this specific case, I noticed that our `upsert_custom_fields` function was using rails `update_all` which is not updating the `updated_at` timestamp. This commit also fixes it and adds a test for it.
In #26122 we promoted all problem checks defined as class methods on AdminDashboardData to their own first-class ProblemCheck instances.
This PR continues that by promoting problem checks that are implemented as blocks as well. This includes updating a couple plugins that have problem checks.
Why this change?
Google does not yet publish binaries for chrome and chromedriver for
`linux/arm64`. In 484954ec4c, we attempted
to add support for running system tests on `linux/arm64` by switching to
Firefox but our system tests seem to make lots of assumptions about
running on chromium based browsers so there are some tests that don't work in Firefox.
This commit works around the lack of chrome and chromedriver binaries by
doing the following:
1. Adds a `DISCOURSE_SYSTEM_TEST_CHROMIUM` ENV variable which when set to
`1` will allow us to run system tests using a chromium binary. Chromium
binaries for `linux/arm64` are available and since Chrome is Chromium based, all of our
system tests "should pass" even when running against a Chromium binary. I don't expect
this to be perfect but I expect it to be better than running against Firefox. This change buys us time
until Chrome finally ships binaries for `linux/arm64`.
2. Adds a `DISCOURSE_SYSTEM_TEST_CHROMEDRIVER_PATH` ENV variable to
allow the chromedriver path to be configured. We need this because
the [electron project](https://github.com/electron/electron/releases) actually
releases chromewebdriver for `linux/arm64` so someone running
`linux/arm64` can download the necessary chromedriver from the
project instead of relying on selenium-manager.
This change is also important for us to support [discourse_test](https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker/blob/main/image/discourse_test/Dockerfile) and [discourse_dev](https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker/blob/main/image/discourse_dev/Dockerfile) images targeted at `linux/arm64`.
We never use that information and this also fixes an issue with the BCC plugin which ends up triggering a rate-limit because we were publishing a "NEW_PRIVATE_MESSAGE" to the user sending the BCC for every recipients 💥
Internal - t/118283
Why this change?
According to https://web.dev/articles/preload-critical-assets,
> By preloading a certain resource, you are telling the browser that you would like to fetch it sooner than the browser would otherwise discover it because you are certain that it is important for the current page.
The preload resource hint is meant to tell the browser to fetch
resources that it would not discover upfront or early. However, we are
not using it the right way because we are literally adding the resource
hint right before a `<script>` tag which means the browser would have
discovered the resource even without the resource hint.
What does this change do?
This commit removes the preload resource hint which are added right
before script tags since the optimization here is highly questionable at the expense of making
our initial DOM larger.
Why this change?
In https://web.dev/articles/preconnect-and-dns-prefetch, it describes
how hinting to the browser to preconnect to domains which we will
eventually use the connection for can help improve the time it takes to
load a page.
We are putting this behind an experimental flag so that we can test and
profile this in a production environment.
What does this change introduce?
Introduce a hidden experimental `experimental_preconnect_link_header`
site setting which when enabled will add the `preconnect` and
`dns-prefetch` resource hints to the response headers for full page load
requests.
Why this change?
This is a first pass at styling the editor for creating/editing/updating
an objects typed theme setting. Only the desktop view is being
considered at the current moment.
The objects typed theme setting is still behind a feature flag at this moment so there is no need for us to get the styling perfect. The purpose of this PR is to get us to a state which we can quickly iterate with a designer on.
This commit makes it so the site settings filter controls and
the list of settings input editors themselves can be used elsewhere
in the admin UI outside of /admin/site_settings
This allows us to provide more targeted groups of settings in different
UI areas where it makes sense to provide them, such as on plugin pages.
You could open a single page for a plugin where you can see information
about that plugin, change settings, and configure it with custom UIs
in the one place.
In future we will do this in "config areas" for other parts of the
admin UI.
