Why this change?
This is caused by a regression in
59839e428f, where we stopped saving the
`Theme` object because it was unnecessary. However, it resulted in the
`after_save` callback not being called and hence
`Theme#update_javascript_cache!` not being called. As a result, some
sites were reporting that after runing a theme migration, the defaults
for the theme settings were used instead of the settings overrides
stored in the database.
What does this change do?
Add a call to `Theme#update_javascript_cache!` after running theme
migrations.
This fixes a bug where the sidebar categories would not be loaded when
the categories were lazy loaded because the sidebar uses the preloaded
category list, which was empty.
We just completed the 3.2 release, which marks a good time to drop some previously deprecated columns.
Since the column has been marked in ignored_columns, it has been inaccessible to application code since then. There's a tiny risk that this might break a Data Explorer query, but given the nature of the column, the years of disuse, and the fact that such a breakage wouldn't be critical, we accept it.
Why this change?
We are getting the following error on CI:
`Text file busy -
/github/home/.cache/selenium/chromedriver/linux64/121.0.6167.85/chromedriver`
This happens when two processes tries to download the chromedriver at
the same time. I'm not entirely sure why the previous implementatio is
not locking properly since we still saw the `Text file busy` error but
by accquring the lock before we even check for the existence of
`~/.cache/selenium`, we should be able to eliminate the chance of two
processes trying to download the chromedriver binary at the same time.
1. Don't show visited line for hot filter, it is in random order
2. Don't count likes on non regular posts (eg: whispers / small actions)
3. Don't count participants in non regular posts
Checking group permissions on the client does not work,
since not all groups are serialized to the client all
the time. We can check `uploaded_avatars_allowed_groups`
on the server side and serialize to the current user
instead.
CI runs on slower machines, so we need to use longer wait times. `Capybara.default_max_wait_time` is automatically reconfigured based on the environment.
JS assets added by plugins via `register_asset` will be outside the `assets/javascripts` directory, and are therefore exempt from being transpiled. That means that there isn't really any need to run them through DiscourseJsProcessor. Instead, we can just concatenate them together, and avoid the need for all the sprockets-wrangling.
This commit also takes the opportunity to clean up a number of plugin-asset-related codepaths which are no longer required (e.g. globs, handlebars)
1. Serial likers will just like a bunch of posts on the same topic, this will
heavily inflate hot score. To avoid artificial "heat" generated by one user only count
the first like on the topic within the recent_cutoff range per topic
2. When looking at recent topics prefer "unique likers", defer to total likes on
older topics cause we do not have an easy count for unique likers
3. Stop taking 1 off like_count, it is not needed - platforms like reddit
allow you to like own post so they need to remove it.
Why this change?
Returning an array makes it hard to immediately retrieve a setting by
name and makes the retrieval an O(N) operation. By returning an array,
we make it easier for us to lookup a setting by name and retrieval is
O(1) as well.
Why this change?
Since 1dba1aca27, we have been remapping
the `<->` proximity operator in a tsquery to `&`. However, there is
another variant of it which follows the `<N>` pattern. For example, the
following text "end-to-end" will eventually result in the following
tsquery `end-to-end:* <-> end:* <2> end:*` being generated by Postgres.
Before this fix, the tsquery is remapped to `end-to-end:* & end:* <2>
end:*` by us. This is requires the search data which we store to contain
`end` at exactly 2 position apart. Due to the way we limit the
number of duplicates in our search data, the search term may end up not
matching anything. In bd32912c5e, we made
it such that we do not allow any duplicates when indexing a topic's
title. Therefore, search for `end-to-end` against a topic title with
`end-to-end` will never match because our index will only contain one
`end` term.
What does this change do?
We will remap the `<N>` variant of the proximity operator.
This change removes the regex we used previously, which only allowed ASCII characters in fast-edit. Now multi-language content can be used with fast-edit.
It also removes the string replacement we relied on in the past to catch various forms of punctuation marks, as this no longer appears necessary (possibly since this component was updated to use Glimmer).
Why this change?
In workflow runs, we have seen processes being stuck on a flock lock and
I'm guessing because we are using `"w"` when opening the file which the
ruby documentation advises against as it states "don't use "w" because it truncates the file before lock."

We were having a minor issue with emails with embedded images
that had newlines in the alt string; for example:
```
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><img width="898"
height="498" style="width:9.3541in;height:5.1875in" id="Picture_x0020_5"
src="cid:image003.png@01DA4EBA.0400B610" alt="A screenshot of a computer
program
Description automatically generated"></span><span
style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
```
Once this was parsed and converted to markdown (or directly to HTML
in some cases), this caused an issue in the composer and the post
UI, where the markdown parser didn't know how to deal with this,
making the HTML show directly instead of showing an image.
The easiest way to deal with this is to just strip \n from image
alt and title attrs in the HTMLToMarkdown class.
This patch allows running system specs on an aarch64 Linux system
(typically our `discourse_dev` docker image).
As Chrome isn’t available for the aarch64 architecture (yet), we have to
rely on Firefox instead. This has some drawbacks like not being able to
access the browser logs like we do with the Chrome webdriver.
These routes were previously rendered using Rails, and had a fairly fragile 2fa implementation in vanilla-js. This commit refactors the routes to be handled in the Ember app, removes the custom vanilla-js bundles, and leans on our centralized 2fa implementation. It also introduces a set of system specs for the behavior.
Internal links always notify and add internal connections in topics.
This adds a special feature that lets you append `?silent=true` to a link
to have it excluded from:
1. Notifications - users will not be notified for these links
2. Post links below posts in the UI
This is specifically useful for large reports where adding all these connections
just results in noise.
In a handful of situations, we need to verify a user's 2fa credentials before `current_user` is assigned. For example: login, email_login and change-email confirmation. This commit adds an explicit `target_user:` parameter to the centralized 2fa system so that it can be used for those situations.
For safety and clarity, this new parameter only works for anon. If some user is logged in, and target_user is set to a different user, an exception will be raised.
For performance reasons we don't automatically add fabricated users to trust level auto-groups. However, when explicitly passing a trust level to the fabricator, in 99% of cases it means that trust level is relevant for the test, and we need the groups.
This change makes it so that when a trust level is explicitly passed to the fabricator, the auto-groups are refreshed. There's no longer a need to also pass refresh_auto_groups: true, which means clearer tests, fewer mistakes, and less confusion.
When exporting a csv file and the size of the file exceeded the
max_export_file_size_kb it will still send the PM that the export
succeeded with a broken link to a missing export file. This change
ensures that a failed message will be sent instead.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_level_to_tag_topics site setting to tag_topic_allowed_groups.
We have all these calls to Group.refresh_automatic_groups! littered throughout the tests. Including tests that are seemingly unrelated to groups. This is because automatic group memberships aren't fabricated when making a vanilla user. There are two places where you'd want to use this:
You have fabricated a user that needs a certain trust level (which is now based on group membership.)
You need the system user to have a certain trust level.
In the first case, we can pass refresh_auto_groups: true to the fabricator instead. This is a more lightweight operation that only considers a single user, instead of all users in all groups.
The second case is no longer a thing after #25400.
We want to exclude the system user from group user counts, since intuitively admins wouldn't include them.
Originally this was accomplished by booting said system user from the groups, but this is causing problems, because the system user needs TL group membership to perform certain tasks.
After this PR, system user is still in the TL groups, but excluded when refreshing the user count.
Previously, it was not possible to modify the sorting order of the `TopicQuery` result from a plugin. This feature adds support to specify custom sorting functionality in a plugin. We're using the `apply_modifier` method in the `DiscoursePluginRegistry` module to achieve it.

Some preparatory refactoring as we're working on TL groups for the system user. On User we have a scope #human_users to exclude the system user, DiscoBot, etc. This PR adds the same scope (delegated to User) on Group.
Why this change?
We have been seeing specs time out on GitHub CI but the problem is that
we are unable to debug those timeouts due to a lack of information. This
change seeks to print out the backtraces of all threads right before a
spec times out on CI.
What does this change do?
1. Starts a thread on CI which will wait for a spec to start running.
1. Once a spec starts running, the thread will sleep for
`PER_SPEC_TIMEOUT_SECONDS -1` seconds.
1. After sleeping, the thread checks if the spec is still running and
prints out the backtraces of all threads if it is. Otherwise, the
thread does nothing and runs the next loop.
1. At the end of each spec run, we ensure that the thread is in a
waiting state for the next spec run to start.
Note that there is no need for us to teardown or cleanup the thread
since the process terminates after running all the tests.
This is a temporary fix to address an issue where the
system user is losing its automatic groups when the server
is running. If any auto groups are provided, and the user is
a system user, then we return true. The system user is admin,
moderator, and TL4, so they usually have all auto groups.
We can remove this when we get to the bottom of why the auto
groups are being deleted.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_level_for_user_api_key site setting to user_api_key_allowed_groups.
This isn't used by any of our plugins or themes, so very little fallout.
If configuring only moderators in a group based access setting, the mapping to the old setting wouldn't work correctly, because the case was unaccounted for.
This PR accounts for moderators group when doing the mapping.
