Syntax highlighting is a CPU-intensive process which we run a lot while rendering posts and while using the composer preview. Moving it to a background worker releases the main thread to the browser, which makes the UX much smoother.
Considering document length in search introduced too much variance in
our search results such that it makes certain searches better but at the
same time made certain searches worst. Instead, we want to have a more
determistic way of ranking search so that it is easier to reason about
why a post is rank higher in search than another.
The long term plan to tackle repeated terms is to restrict the number of
positions for a given lexeme in our search index.
```
discourse_development=# SELECT alias, lexemes FROM TS_DEBUG('www.discourse.org');
alias | lexemes
-------+---------------------
host | {www.discourse.org}
discourse_development=# SELECT TO_TSVECTOR('www.discourse.org');
to_tsvector
-----------------------
'www.discourse.org':1
```
Given the above lexeme, we will inject additional lexeme by splitting
the host on `.`. The actual tsvector stored will look something like
```
tsvector
---------------------------------------
'discourse':1 'discourse.org':1 'org':1 'www':1 'www.discourse.org':1
```
* Do not autofocus name input on mobile
* Improve code for formatted reminder type times to not be computed, so the modal times update correctly
* Change wording of "Next Monday" to "Monday" for all days except when today is Monday
Category and tag hashtags used to be handled differently even though
most of the code was very similar. This design was the root cause of
multiple issues related to hashtags.
This commit reduces the number of requests (just one and debounced
better), removes the use of CSS classes which marked resolved hashtags,
simplifies a lot of the code as there is a single source of truth and
previous race condition fixes are now useless.
It also includes a very minor security fix which let unauthorized users
to guess hidden tags.
* strip out the href and xlink:href attributes from use element that
are _not_ anchors in svgs which can be used for XSS
* adding the content-disposition: attachment ensures that
uploaded SVGs cannot be opened and executed using the XSS exploit.
svgs embedded using an img tag do not suffer from the same exploit
`Nokogiri::HTML.fragment` is a huge hack (a comment in the source code
admits this). The current behavior of `Email::Styles` is to try to
emulate `fragment` using nokogumbo, but it misses some edge cases. In
particular, meta tags in a email template don't make it through to the
final email.
Instead of treating the provided HTML as an indeterminate fragment, this
commit makes `Email::Styles` treat the HTML as a complete document. This
means that the generated HTML for an email will now always contain top
level structure (a doctype, html, head and body tags).
This new behavior is behind a hidden site setting for now and defaults
off.
Previously we would include this section, unfortunately
1. It is usually elided in gmail
2. It can make the emails longer and more confusing
3. Omission is a feature, it means people need to visit site to get context
There is a feature in search where we take over from the tokenizer
in postgres and attempt to inject more words into search.
So for example: sam.i.am will inject the words i and am.
This is not ideal cause there are many edge cases and this can
cause extreme index bloat.
This is an opening move commit to make it configurable, over the
next few weeks we will evaluate and decide if we disable this by
default or simply remove.
The admin permalink list was a little tricky to use because the URLs are easily reduced with a ... if they are too long. This adds a copy to clipboard button for the URL and a title on hover so the full text of the URL can be seen.
* FEATURE: Don't display muted/ignored users under "who liked"
Previously, if you clicked on the heart icon below a post
it would show you the avatar for a user even if you ignored or muted
them.
This commit will instead display a (?) icon. The count of likes will
remain correct, but you needn't be reminded of the person you
preferred not to see.
* Use a circle instead of (?) for unknown user
