Communities can use sidebar or header dropdown, therefore navigation menu is a better name settings in 2 places:
- Old user sidebar preferences;
- Site setting about default tags and categories.
Currently, groups owned by moderators are not visible to them on the
groups page. This happens because, the group visibility queries don't
account for non-admin staff user group ownership.
This change updates the group visibility scope queries to account for a
moderator(non-admin staff user) group ownership.
* FEATURE: Content custom summarization strategies.
This PR establishes a pattern for plugins to register alternative ways of summarizing content by extending a class that defines an interface.
Core controls which strategy we'll use and who has access to it through the `summarization_strategy` and `custom_summarization_allowed_groups`. It also defines the UI for summarizing topics.
Other plugins can access this summarization mechanism and implement their features, removing cross-plugin customizations, as it currently happens between chat and the discourse-ai plugin.
* Group membership validation and rate limiting
* Work with objects instead of classes
* Port summarization feature from discourse-ai to chat
* Rename available summaries to 'Top Replies' and 'Summary'
This patch sets some limits on custom fields:
- an entity can’t have more than 100 custom fields defined on it
- a custom field can’t hold a value greater than 10,000,000 characters
The current implementation of custom fields is relatively complex and
does an upsert in SQL at some point, thus preventing to simply add an
`ActiveRecord` validation on the custom field model without having to
rewrite a part of the existing logic.
That’s one of the reasons this patch is implementing validations in the
`HasCustomField` module adding them to the model including the module.
* DEV: Implement staff logs for user columns edits
* deleted extra space in staff logger detail string, deleted string when no changes are made, added basic test coverage for EditDirectoryColumnsController
* fixed change made to #self.staff_actions un UserHistory
* implemented a method that builds the details, previous_values and new_values in a dynamic way
* removed details of changes
* refactored small merge
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.
* 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.

This commit adds modifiers that allow plugins to change how categories and groups are prefetched into the application and listed in the respective controllers.
Possible use cases:
- prevent some categories/groups from being prefetched when the application loads for performance reasons.
- prevent some categories/groups from being listed in their respective index pages.
When a user chooses to move a topic/message to an existing topic/message, they can now opt to merge the posts chronologically (using a checkbox in the UI).
What is this change required?
I noticed that actions in `SidebarSectionsController` resulted in
lots of N+1 queries problem and I wanted a solution to
prevent such problems without having to write N+1 queries tests. I have
also used strict loading for `SidebarSection` queries in performance
sensitive spots.
Note that in this commit, I have also set `config.active_record.action_on_strict_loading_violation = :log`
for the production environment so that we have more visibility of
potential N+1 queries problem in the logs. In development and test
environment, we're sticking with the default of raising an error.
What is the problem?
In the test environement, we were calling `SiteSetting.setting` directly
to introduce new site settings. However, this leads to changes in state of the SiteSettings
hash that is stored in memory as test runs. Changing or leaking states
when running tests is one of the major contributors of test flakiness.
An example of how this resulted in test flakiness is our `spec/integrity/i18n_spec.rb` spec file which
had a test case that would fail because a new "plugin_setting" site
setting was registered in another test case but the site setting did not
have translations for the site setting set.
What is the fix?
There are a couple of changes being introduced in this commit:
1. Make `SiteSetting.setting` a private method as it is not safe to be
exposed as a public method of the `SiteSetting` class
2. Change test cases to use existing site settings in Discourse instead
of creating custom site settings. Existing site settings are not
removed often so we don't really need to dynamically add new site
settings in test cases. Even if the site settings being used in test
cases are removed, updating the test cases to rely on other site
settings is a very easy change.
3. Set up a plugin instance in the test environment as a "fixture"
instead of having each test create its own plugin instance.
This patch is a followup of
https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/21504 where limits on custom
message for an invite were introduced.
This had a side effect of making some existing invites invalid and with
the current code, they can’t be invalidated anymore.
This patch takes the approach of skipping the validations when invites
are invalidated since the important thing here is to mark the invite as
invalidated regardless of its actual state in the DB. (no other
attributes are updated at the same time anyway)
* FIX: Video thumbnails can have duplicates
It's possible that a duplicate video or even a very similar video could
generate the same video thumbnail. Because video thumbnails are mapped
to their corresponding video by using the video sha1 in the thumbnail
filename we need to allow for duplicate thumbnails otherwise even when a
thumbnail has been generated for a topic it will not be mapped
correctly.
This will also allow you to re-upload a video on the same topic to
regenerate the thumbnail.
* fix typo
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.
The old method updated only existing records, without considering that
new tags might have been created or some tags might not exist anymore.
This was usually not a problem because the stats were also updated by
other code paths.
However, the ensure consistency job should be more solid and help when
other code paths fail or after importing data.
Also, update category tag stats too should happen when updating other
category stats as well.
### What is this change?
The lounge category was replaced with the general category in https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/18097.
However, there are still a few references to the lounge category in code. In particular, `Category#seeded?` is erroring out in production looking for `SiteSetting.lounge_category_id`.
In #21498, we split `BaseStore#download` into a "safe" version which returns nil on errors, and an "unsafe" version which raises an exception, which was the old behaviour of `#download`.
This change updates call sites that used the old `#download`, which raised exceptions, to use the new `#download!` to preserve behaviour (and silence deprecation warnings.)
It also silences the deprecation warning in tests.
- Update welcome topic copy
- Edit the welcome topic automatically when the title or description changes
- Remove “Create your Welcome Topic” banner/CTA
- Add "edit welcome topic" user tip
### Background
When SSRF detection fails, the exception bubbles all the way up, causing a log alert. This isn't actionable, and should instead be ignored. The existing `rescue` does already ignore network errors, but fails to account for SSRF exceptions coming from `FinalDestination`.
### What is this change?
This PR does two things.
---
Firstly, it introduces a common root exception class, `FinalDestination::SSRFError` for SSRF errors. This serves two functions: 1) it makes it easier to rescue both errors at once, which is generally what one wants to do and 2) prevents having to dig deep into the class hierarchy for the constant.
This change is fully backwards compatible thanks to how inheritance and exception handling works.
---
Secondly, it rescues this new exception in `UserAvatar.import_url_for_user`, which is causing sporadic errors to be logged in production. After this SSRF errors are handled the same as network errors.
This fixes a bug in the create invite API where if you passed in an
integer for the group_ids field it would fail to add the user to the
specified group.
This commit fixes an issue where the Likes Received notification
count in the user digest email was not affected by the
since/last_seen date for the user, which meant that no matter
how long it had been since the user visited the count was
always constant.
Now instead for the Likes Received count, we only count the
unread notifications of that type since the user was last
seen.
The current limit (250 characters) is too low, as we have some
translations used for our badge descriptions that result in a
description length of 264 characters.
To be on the safe side, the limit is now set to 500 characters.
A category's slug can be encoded when
`SiteSetting.slug_generation_method` has been set to "encoded". As a
result, we have to support non ASCII characters as well.
This amends it so our cached counting reliant specs run in synchronize mode
When running async there are situations where data is left over in the table
after a transactional test. This means that repeat runs of the test suite
fail.
* 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.
Before this fix if the underlying model of a reviewable was changed, the filter wouldn't work anymore as it was expecting a 1:1 relation between filter type and model name.
This commit also relies on the `Reviewable.types` array to check against valid types instead of a regex not checking much.
Finally this commit adds a spec to ensure chat reviewables are listable from the review index page.
