NOTE: Most of this is experimental and will be removed at a later
time, which is why things like translations have not been added.
The new /admin-revamp UI uses a sidebar for admin nav. This initial
step adds a script to generate a map of all the current admin nav
into a format the sidebar to read. Then, people can experiment
with different changes to this structure.
The structure can then be edited from `/admin-revamp/config/sidebar-experiment`,
and it is saved to local storage so people can visually experiment with different ways
of showing the admin sidebar links.
Two changes were introduced:
1. Reorder links on sidebar section is removed. Clicking and holding the mouse for 250ms was unintuitive;
2. Fixed bugs when reorder is done in edit modal.
Plugins can use a new modifier to change which site settings are hidden using the :hidden_site_settings modifier. For example:
```
register_modifier(:hidden_site_settings) do |hidden|
(hidden + [:invite_only, :login_required]).uniq
end
```
As part of #23816, which sought to strip out thousand separators, we also accidentally strip out signs. This is making it impossible to disable some settings which require a -1 to disable. Instead of stripping non-digits, strip anything that isn't a sign or a digit.
This commit fixes an issue where clicking the default
"Take Action" option on a flag for a post doesn't always
end up with the post hidden.
This is because the "take_action" score bonus doesn’t take into account
the final score required to hide the post.
Especially with the `hide_post_sensitivity` site setting set to `low`
sensitivity, there is a likelihood the score needed to hide the post
won’t be reached.
Now, the default "Take Action" button has been changed to "Hide Post"
to reflect what is actually happening and the description has been
improved, and if "Take Action" is clicked we _always_ hide the post
regardless of score and sensitivity settings. This way the action reflects
expectations of the user.
* FEATURE: Add keywords support for site_settings search
This change allows for a new `keywords` field that can be added to site
settings in order to help with searching. Keywords are not visible in
the UI, but site settings matching one of the contained keywords will
appear when searching for that keyword.
Keywords can be added for site settings inside of the
`config/locales/server.en.yml` file under the new `keywords` key.
```
site_settings
example_1: "fancy description"
example_2: "another description"
keywords:
example_1: "capybara"
```
* Add keywords entry for a recently changed site setting and add system specs
* Use page.visit now that we have our own visit
The User#flag_level column has not been in use for a very long time. The "new" reviewable system dynamically calculates flag scores based on past performance of the user.
This PR removes flag_level from the admin user serializer (since it isn't displayed anywhere in admin user lists) and marks the column as deprecated and targeted for removal in the next minor version.
The message: :signup_not_allowed option to the IP address validator does nothing, because the AllowedIpAddressValidator chooses one of either:
- ip_address.blocked or
- ip_address.max_new_accounts_per_registration_ip
internally. This means that the translation for this was also never used.
This PR removes the ineffectual option and the unused translation. It also moves the translated error messages for blocked and max_new_accounts_per_registration_ip into the correct location so we can pass a symbol to ActiveModel::Errors#add.
There is no actual change in behaviour.
Followup to 9762e65758. This
original commit did not take into account the fact that
new topics can end up in the approval queue as a
ReviewableQueuedPost, and so there was a 500 error raised
when accessing `self.topic` when sending a PM to the user.
This was just a case of removing the `onlyStream: true`
operation from `decorateCookedElement`, since that restricts
the decoration only to topic page posts.
This regressed in b6dc929. A test to ensure this doesn't regress has
been added as well.
This PR also fixes a flakey system spec. The conditional UI gets
triggered automatically, so the system spec shouldn't explicitly call
`find(".passkey-login-button").click`, because sometimes it isn't
present and that causes a test failure.
Plugins can use a new modifier to change which site settings are
hidden using the :hidden_site_settings modifier. For example:
register_modifier(:hidden_site_settings) do |hidden|
(hidden + [:invite_only, :login_required]).uniq
end
Calling add_to_serializer is an irreversible operation which affects all the following tests in the suite. This lead to other tests failing because they weren't expecting the extra field on the category serializer.

In the past we would build the stack of Omniauth providers at boot, which meant that plugins had to register any authenticators in the root of their plugin.rb (i.e. not in an `after_initialize` block). This could be frustrating because many features are not available that early in boot (e.g. Zeitwerk autoloading).
Now that we build the omniauth strategy stack 'just in time', it is safe for plugins to register their auth methods in an `after_initialize` block. This commit relaxes the old restrictions so that plugin authors have the option to move things around.
Previously, we would build the stack of omniauth authenticators once on boot. That meant that all strategies had to be included, even if they were disabled. We then used the `before_request_phase` to ensure disabled strategies could not be used. This works well, but it means that omniauth is often doing unnecessary work running logic in disabled strategies.
This commit refactors things so that we build the stack of strategies on each request. That means we only need to include the enabled strategies in the stack - disabled strategies are totally ignored. Building the stack on-demand like this does add some overhead to auth requests, but on the majority of sites that will be significantly outweighed by the fact we're now skipping logic for disabled authenticators.
As well as the slight performance improvement, this new approach means that:
- Broken (i.e. exception-raising) strategies cannot cause issues on a site if they're disabled
- `other_phase` of disabled strategies will never appear in the backtrace of other authentication errors
No plugins or themes rely on anonymous_posting_min_trust_level so we
can just switch straight over to anonymous_posting_allowed_groups
This also adds an AUTO_GROUPS const which can be imported in JS
tests which is analogous to the one defined in group.rb. This can be used
to set the current user's groups where JS tests call for checking these groups
against site settings.
Finally a AtLeastOneGroupValidator validator is added for group_list site
settings which ensures that at least one group is always selected, since if
you want to allow all users to use a feature in this way you can just use
the everyone group.
Using Wizard.exclude_steps applies to all sites in a multisite cluster.
In order to exclude steps for individual sites at run-time, a new
instance method `remove_step` is being added.
This fixes a similar issue to 8b3eca0 where an Errno::ETXTBSY error was raised because the minio_runner gem was trying to install the binary across multiple processes in rspec. If we just make sure the latest version is installed before the tests run, this shouldn't happen, since MinioRunner.start will not do any further attempts at installation if the latest version is installed.
Why this change?
When we're in the midst of loading more tags, the filter dropdown
is still enabled and may result in us firing off multiple requests to
the server to load more tags. This makes the loading hard to reason
about in the tests environment and has led to flaky tests.
What does this change do?
This changes disables the filter dropdown when more tags are being
loading.
Why this change?
Currently, we do not have a method to easily retrieve a theme setting's
value on the server side. Such a method can be useful in the test
environment where we need to retrieve the theme's setting and use its
value in assertions.
What does this change do?
This change introduces the `Theme#get_setting` instance method.
This change adds a new event trigger (new_post_moved) when the first post in a topic is moved to a new topic.
Plugins that listen for the new_post_moved event now have an easy way to update old data based on the post id.
There are a few PUT requests that users can do in their preferences tab that aren't going through the standard `user#update` action.
This commit adds all the "trivial" ones (aka. except the security-related one, username and email changes) so you can now change the badge title, the avatar or featured topic of a user via the API.
This commit adds a new admin UI under the route `/admin-revamp`, which is
only accessible if the user is in a group defined by the new `enable_experimental_admin_ui_groups` site setting. It
also adds a special `admin` sidebar panel that is shown instead of the `main`
forum one when the admin is in this area.
We also add an "Admin Revamp" sidebar link to the community section, which
will only appear if the user is in the setting group:
Within this there are subroutes defined like `/admin-revamp/config/:area`,
these areas could contain any UI imaginable, this is just laying down an
initial idea of the structure and how the sidebar will work. Sidebar links are
currently hardcoded.
Some other changes:
* Changed the `main` and `chat` panels sidebar panel keys to use exported const values for reuse
* Allowed custom sidebar sections to hide their headers with the `hideSectionHeader` option
* Add a `groupSettingArray` setting on `this.siteSettings` in JS, which accepts a group site setting name
and splits it by `|` then converts the items in the array to integers, similar to the `_map` magic for ruby
group site settings
* Adds a `hidden` option for sidebar panels which prevents them from showing in separated mode and prevents
the switch button from being shown

Why this change?
When the URL `/t/1234?preview_theme_id=21` is loaded, we redirect to
`/t/<topic slug>/1234` stripping the `preview_theme_id` query params.
What does this change do?
This change builds on 61248652cd and
simply adds the `preview_theme_id` query param when redirecting.
* FIX: Secure upload post processing race condition
This commit fixes a couple of issues.
A little background -- when uploads are created in the composer
for posts, regardless of whether the upload will eventually be
marked secure or not, if secure_uploads is enabled we always mark
the upload secure at first. This is so the upload is by default
protected, regardless of post type (regular or PM) or category.
This was causing issues in some rare occasions though because
of the order of operations of our post creation and processing
pipeline. When creating a post, we enqueue a sidekiq job to
post-process the post which does various things including
converting images to lightboxes. We were also enqueuing a job
to update the secure status for all uploads in that post.
Sometimes the secure status job would run before the post process
job, marking uploads as _not secure_ in the background and changing
their ACL before the post processor ran, which meant the users
would see a broken image in their posts. This commit fixes that issue
by always running the upload security changes inline _within_ the
cooked_post_processor job.
The other issue was that the lightbox wrapper link for images in
the post would end up with a URL like this:
```
href="/secure-uploads/original/2X/4/4e1f00a40b6c952198bbdacae383ba77932fc542.jpeg"
```
Since we weren't actually using the `upload.url` to pass to
`UrlHelper.cook_url` here, we weren't converting this href to the CDN
URL if the post was not in a secure context (the UrlHelper does not
know how to convert a secure-uploads URL to a CDN one). Now we
always end up with the correct lightbox href. This was less of an issue
than the other one, since the secure-uploads URL works even when the
upload has become non-secure, but it was a good inconsistency to fix
anyway.
This reverts commit 5f0bc4557f.
Through extensive internal discussion we have decided to revert
this change, as it significantly impacted moderation flow for
some Discourse site moderators, especially around "something else"
flags. We need to re-approach how flags are counted holistically,
so to that end this change is being reverted.
Site data is preloaded on the first page load, which includes categories
data. For sites with many categories, site data takes a long time to
serialize and to transfer.
In the future, preloaded category data will be completely removed.
This commit introduces a new endpoint to search categories and uses it
instead of the categories map that is preloaded using SiteSerializer.
This feature is enabled only when the hidden site setting
lazy_load_categories is enabled and should be used only on sites with
many categories.
The category style site setting is being deprecated. This commit will
show a warning on the admin dashboard if a site isn't using the default
category style (bullet).
At this moment, this feature is under a site setting named
lazy_load_categories.
In the future, categories will no longer be preloaded through site data.
This commit add information about categories in topic list and ensures
that data is used to display topic list items.
Parent categories are serialized too because they are necessary to
render {{category-link}}.
There are cases where a user can copy image markdown from a public
post (such as via the discourse-templates plugin) into a PM which
is then sent via an email. Since a PM is a secure context (via the
.with_secure_uploads? check on Post), the image will get a secure
URL in the PM post even though the backing upload is not secure.
This fixes the bug in that case where the image would be stripped
from the email (since it had a /secure-uploads/ URL) but not re-attached
further down the line using the secure_uploads_allow_embed_images_in_emails
setting because the upload itself was not secure.
The flow in Email::Sender for doing this is still not ideal, but
there are chicken and egg problems around when to strip the images,
how to fit in with other attachments and email size limits, and
when to apply the images inline via Email::Styles. It's convoluted,
but at least this fixes the Template use case for now.
PERF: improve touch, swipe, panning performance on mobile menus
---
* stop event propagation on swipe events: other touch events were stealing a huge amount of time here. Stop event
propagation when handling pan events.
* animate with [web animations api](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Animations_API/Using_the_Web_Animations_API)
* prefer translate3d to hint for gpu rendering.
* query document for elements only on start move event, not on subsequent move
events
* remove unused calculations for directioned velocity and distance: all swipe/pan elements function in x/y direction only.
* re-implement scroll locking behavior.
re-implemented scroll lock behavior
---
With stop event propagation, we need to re-implement scroll locking on menu swipes.
Previously, this was using onTouchMove which was costly.
We may now use styling with overflow-y:hidden to lock scroll behavior.
overflow:hidden on html/body elements is now supported by iOS as of 2022
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153852https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220908
UX: improve swipe
---
Some improvements to get gestures and swipes feeling a little more polished.
This focuses on end gesture, and how we transfer it to a css animation to
complete a menu open/close action.
Multitouch: events may pan, scroll, and zoom - especially on iOS safari.
Cancelling the swipe event allows for a more pleasant zooming experience.
* ease-out on menus opening, linear on close
* calculate animation duration for opening and closing,
attempt to better transfer user swipe velocity to css animation.
* more timely close/open and cleanup from calculated animation timing.
* add animation to closing menus on cloak tap
* correctly animate menus with ease-in and ease-out
* add swipe cancel event on multitouch event
DEV
---
* lean on promises
js animations api gives us promises to listen to. Update test waiters
to use waitForPromise from @ember/test-waiters instead of reigster/unregister.
* convert swipe mixin to its own class.
Convert swipe callbacks to custom events on the element.
Move shared functions for max animation time and close logic to
new shared class.
swipe-events lib uses custom events to trigger callbacks, rather than assuming
implemented hard coded function from the mixin's base class. Custom events are
triggered from the bound element as swipestart, swipeend, swipe
Add shared convenience functions for swipe events so they can be more easily
shared.
A client receives an initial swipe event and can check some state to see if it
wants to handle the swipe event and if it doesn't, calling
`event.preventDefault();` will prevent `swipe` and `swipeend` events from firing
until another distinct swipestart event is fired. Swipe events will auto-cancel on multitouch.
The scroll lock has also exposed as its own utility class.
Why this change?
This ensures that malicious requests cannot end up causing the logs to
quickly fill up. The default chosen is sufficient for most legitimate
requests to the Discourse application.
When truncation happens, parsing of logs in supported format like
lograge may break down.
Why this change?
The `PostsController#create` action allows arbitrary topic custom fields
to be set by any user that can create a topic. Without any restrictions,
this opens us up to potential security issues where plugins may be using
topic custom fields in security sensitive areas.
What does this change do?
1. This change introduces the `register_editable_topic_custom_field` plugin
API which allows plugins to register topic custom fields that are
editable either by staff users only or all users. The registered
editable topic custom fields are stored in `DiscoursePluginRegistry` and
is called by a new method `Topic#editable_custom_fields` which is then
used in the `PostsController#create` controller action. When an unpermitted custom fields is present in the `meta_data` params,
a 400 response code is returned.
2. Removes all reference to `meta_data` on a topic as it is confusing
since we actually mean topic custom fields instead.
