* Email and username are both allowed to be used for logging in.
Therefore, it is easier to just store the user's id rather than
to store the username and email in the session.
Revamped system for managing authentication tokens.
- Every user has 1 token per client (web browser)
- Tokens are rotated every 10 minutes
New system migrates the old tokens to "legacy" tokens,
so users still remain logged on.
Also introduces weekly job to expire old auth tokens.
- Regular users are not notified of whispers
- Regular users no longer have "stuck" topics in unread
- Additional tracking for staff highest post number
- Remove a bunch of unused columns in topics table
Adds a "Step 0" to the wizard if the site has no admin accounts where
the user is prompted to finish setting up their admin account from the
list of acceptable email addresses.
Once confirmed, the wizard begins.
- present tags watched on the user prefs page
- automatically watch or unwatch old topics based on watch status
New watching and tracking logic takes care of handling old topics
(either with or without read state)
When you watch a topic you now watch historically
Also removes confusing warnings from user.
Re-organise user page so it is easier to find interesting info
split it into tabs
- Introduce notifications and messages tabs
- Stop couting stuff for the user page to speed up rendering
- Suppress more information when viewing your own profile
If you allow a group to be mentioned it can be mentioned with the @ symbol.
Keep in mind as a safety mechanism max_users_notified_per_group_mention is set to 100
- Increase size of email column to varchar(513)
- Give error message on signup when email is too large
Overall impact: Low, allows signups from blocked domains. Main risk is increased spam.
- Move user directory from `/directory` to `/users/`
- Defaults to 'weekly' time period
- Don't include deleted topics/posts in the results
- Move heart icon to header instead of on each row
- "Users" instead of "Users found"
- FIX: make sure we set a default name to a pasted image only on Chrome (the only browser that supports it)
- FIX: use ".json" extension to uploads endpoints since IE9 doesn't pass the correct header
- FIX: pass the CSRF token in a query parameter since IE9 doesn't pass it in the headers
- FIX: display error messages comming from the server when there is one over the default error message
- FIX: HACK around IE9 security issue when clicking a file input via JavaScript (use a label and set `visibility:hidden` on the input)
- FIX: hide the "cancel" upload on IE9 since it's not supported
- FIX: return "text/plain" content-type when uploading a file for IE9 in order to prevent it from displaying the save dialog
- FIX: check the maximum file size on the server 💥
- update jQuery File Upload Plugin to v. 5.42.2
- update JQuery IFram Transport Plugin to v. 1.8.5
- update jQuery UI Widget to v. 1.11.1
This fixes a bug where the server would 500 if the only user fields
where optional ones, and the create_user call didn't provide any
values so that params[:user_fields] was nil.
Additionally, don't bother double-checked for required fields, since we
iterate over all fields and will catch any that are required and blank.
While *sometimes* `no_js` was used for visitors without js (for example
disabling it on your browser) it was also used for some pages that were
disabled to JS capable browsers, including the 404 page.
Even worse, sometimes it was used on pages that *had* Javascript, such
as our `/activate-account` route. It has been renamed to `no_ember` to
indicate what it really is, a layout for the site that doesn't load our
Ember.js application.
- Have update username return json response that contains the updated
username and id. I figured this would be better than just return "OK".
- Add test to verify that the new username is returned.
I'm working on writing a test in the discourse_api gem for uploading
avatars and the pick method needs to return a json response.
I also added a test to make sure json is returned.
