This adds the ability to collect stats without exposing them
among other stats via API.
The most important thing I wanted to achieve is to provide
an API where stats are not exposed by default, and a developer
has to explicitly specify that they should be
exposed (`expose_via_api: true`). Implementing an opposite
solution would be simpler, but that's less safe in terms of
potential security issues.
When working on this, I had to refactor the current solution.
I would go even further with the refactoring, but the next steps
seem to be going too far in changing the solution we have,
and that would also take more time. Two things that can be
improved in the future:
1. Data structures for holding stats can be further improved
2. Core stats are hard-coded in the About template (it's hard
to fix it without correcting data structures first, see point 1):
63a0700d45/app/views/about/index.html.erb (L61-L101)
The most significant refactorings are:
1. Introducing the `Stat` model
2. Aligning the way the core and the plugin stats' are registered
There was a registry for preloaded site categories and a new one has
been introduced recently for categories serialized through a
CategoryList.
Having two registries created a lot of friction for developers and this
commit merges them into a single one, providing a unified API.
There is an edge case where the following occurs:
1. The user sets a bookmark reminder on a post/topic
2. The post/topic is changed to a PM before or after the reminder
fires, and the notification remains unread by the user
3. The user opens their bookmark reminder notification list
and they can still see the notification even though they cannot
access the topic anymore
There is a very low chance for information leaking here, since
the only thing that could be exposed is the topic title if it
changes to something sensitive.
This commit filters the bookmark unread notifications by using
the bookmarkable can_see? methods and also prevents sending
reminder notifications for bookmarks the user can no longer see.
When quoting a chat message in a post, if that message contains a mention,
that mention should be ignored. But we've been detecting them and sending
notifications to users. This PR fixes the problem. Since this fix is for
the chat plugin, I had to introduce a new API for plugins:
# We strip posts before detecting mentions, oneboxes, attachments etc.
# We strip those elements that shouldn't be detected. For example,
# a mention inside a quote should be ignored, so we strip it off.
# Using this API plugins can register their own post strippers.
def register_post_stripper(&block)
end
This commit adds an /admin/customize/theme-components route,
that opens the theme page with the components tab pre-selected,
so people can navigate to that directly.
Switches to using a dialog to confirm a session (i.e. sudo mode for
account changes where we want to be extra sure the current user is who
they say they are) to match what we do with passkeys.
Previously, we were parsing webpack JS chunk filenames from the HTML files which ember-cli generates. This worked ok for simple entrypoints, but falls apart once we start using async imports(), which are not included in the HTML.
This commit uses the stats plugin to generate an assets.json file, and updates Rails to parse it instead of the HTML. Caching on the Rails side is also improved to avoid reading from the filesystem multiple times per request in develoment.

This commit fixes an issue where when some actions were done
(deleting/recovering post, moving posts) we updated the
topic_users.bookmarked column to the wrong value. This was happening
because the SyncTopicUserBookmarked job was not taking into account
Topic level bookmarks, so if there was a Topic bookmark and no
Post bookmarks for a user in the topic, they would have
topic_users.bookmarked set to false, which meant the bookmark would
no longer show in the /bookmarks list.
To reproduce before the fix:
* Bookmark a topic and don’t bookmark any posts within
* Delete or recover any post in the topic

This commit adds an `enable_s3_transfer_acceleration` site setting,
which is hidden to begin with. We are adding this because in certain
regions, using https://aws.amazon.com/s3/transfer-acceleration/ can
drastically speed up uploads, sometimes as much as 70% in certain
regions depending on the target bucket region. This is important for
us because we have direct S3 multipart uploads enabled everywhere
on our hosting.
To start, we only want this on the uploads bucket, not the backup one.
Also, this will accelerate both uploads **and** downloads, depending
on whether a presigned URL is used for downloading. This is the case
when secure uploads is enabled, not anywhere else at this time. To
enable the S3 acceleration on downloads more generally would be a
more in-depth change, since we currently store S3 Upload record URLs
like this:
```
url: "//test.s3.dualstack.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/original/2X/6/123456.png"
```
For acceleration, `s3.dualstack` would need to be changed to `s3-accelerate.dualstack`
here.
Note that for this to have any effect, Transfer Acceleration must be enabled
on the S3 bucket used for uploads per https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/transfer-acceleration-examples.html.
When Discourse first introduced brotli support, reverse-proxy/CDN support for passing through the accept-encoding header to our NGINX server was very poor. Therefore, a separate `/brotli_assets/...` path was introduced to serve the brotli assets. This worked well, but introduces additional complexity and inconsistencies.
Nowadays, Brotli encoding is well supported, so we don't need the separate paths any more. Requests can be routed to the asset `.js` URLs, and NGINX will serve the brotli/gzip version of the asset automatically.
For deprecated site settings, we log out a warning when
the old setting is used. However when we convert all the client
settings to JSON, we are creating a lot of log noise like this:
> Deprecation notice: `SiteSetting.anonymous_posting_min_trust_level` has been deprecated.
We don't need to do this because we are just dumping the JSON.
We updated scheduled admin checks to run concurrently in their own jobs. The main reason for this was so that we can implement re-check functionality for especially flaky checks (e.g. group e-mail credentials check.)
This works in the following way:
1. The check declares its retry policy using class methods.
2. A block can be yielded to if there are problems, but before they are committed to Redis.
3. The job uses this block to either a) schedule a retry if there are any remaining or b) do nothing and let the check commit.
When submitting files through the form template upload field, we were having an issue where, although a validation error message was being presented to the user, the upload was still coming through, because `PickFilesButton`'s validation happens **after** the Uppy mixin finished the upload and hit `uploadDone`.
This PR adds a new overridable method to the Uppy mixin and overrides it with the custom validation, which now happens before the file is sent.
Additionally, we're now also using `uploadingOrProcessing` as the source of truth to show the upload/uploading label, which seems more reliable.
This PR does some preparatory refactoring of scheduled admin checks in order for us to be able to do custom retry strategies for some of them.
Instead of running all checks in sequence inside a single, scheduled job, the scheduled job spawns one new job per check.
In order to be concurrency-safe, we need to change the existing Redis data structure from a string (of serialized JSON) to a list of strings (of serialized JSON).
This commit introduces a new feature that allows theme developers to manage the transformation of theme settings over time. Similar to Rails migrations, the theme settings migration system enables developers to write and execute migrations for theme settings, ensuring a smooth transition when changes are required in the format or structure of setting values.
Example use cases for the theme settings migration system:
1. Renaming a theme setting.
2. Changing the data type of a theme setting (e.g., transforming a string setting containing comma-separated values into a proper list setting).
3. Altering the format of data stored in a theme setting.
All of these use cases and more are now possible while preserving theme setting values for sites that have already modified their theme settings.
Usage:
1. Create a top-level directory called `migrations` in your theme/component, and then within the `migrations` directory create another directory called `settings`.
2. Inside the `migrations/settings` directory, create a JavaScript file using the format `XXXX-some-name.js`, where `XXXX` is a unique 4-digit number, and `some-name` is a descriptor of your choice that describes the migration.
3. Within the JavaScript file, define and export (as the default) a function called `migrate`. This function will receive a `Map` object and must also return a `Map` object (it's acceptable to return the same `Map` object that the function received).
4. The `Map` object received by the `migrate` function will include settings that have been overridden or changed by site administrators. Settings that have never been changed from the default will not be included.
5. The keys and values contained in the `Map` object that the `migrate` function returns will replace all the currently changed settings of the theme.
6. Migrations are executed in numerical order based on the XXXX segment in the migration filenames. For instance, `0001-some-migration.js` will be executed before `0002-another-migration.js`.
Here's a complete example migration script that renames a setting from `setting_with_old_name` to `setting_with_new_name`:
```js
// File name: 0001-rename-setting.js
export default function migrate(settings) {
if (settings.has("setting_with_old_name")) {
settings.set("setting_with_new_name", settings.get("setting_with_old_name"));
}
return settings;
}
```
Internal topic: t/109980
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.
