To add an extra layer of security, we sanitize settings before shipping them to the client. We don't sanitize those that have the "html" type.
The CookedPostProcessor already uses Loofah for sanitization, so I chose to also use it for this. I added it to our gemfile since we installed it as a transitive dependency.
This commit allows themes and theme components to have QUnit tests. To add tests to your theme/component, create a top-level directory in your theme and name it `test`, and Discourse will save all the files in that directory (and its sub-directories) as "tests files" in the database. While tests files/directories are not required to be organized in a specific way, we recommend that you follow Discourse core's tests [structure](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/tree/master/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/tests).
Writing theme tests should be identical to writing plugins or core tests; all the `import` statements and APIs that you see in core (or plugins) to define/setup tests should just work in themes.
You do need a working Discourse install to run theme tests, and you have 2 ways to run theme tests:
* In the browser at the `/qunit` route. `/qunit` will run tests of all active themes/components as well as core and plugins. The `/qunit` now accepts a `theme_name` or `theme_url` params that you can use to run tests of a specific theme/component like so: `/qunit?theme_name=<your_theme_name>`.
* In the command line using the `themes:qunit` rake task. This take is meant to run tests of a single theme/component so you need to provide it with a theme name or URL like so: `bundle exec rake themes:qunit[name=<theme_name>]` or `bundle exec rake themes:qunit[url=<theme_url>]`.
There are some refactors to internal code that's responsible for processing themes/components in Discourse, most notably:
* `<script type="text/discourse-plugin">` tags are automatically converted to modules.
* The `theme-settings` service is removed in favor of a simple `lib` file responsible for managing theme settings. This was done to allow us to register/lookup theme settings very early in our Ember app lifecycle and because there was no reason for it to be an Ember service.
These refactors should 100% backward compatible and invisible to theme developers.
In Improve invite system, a newly created link only invite cannot
be retrieved via API with the invitee's email once created. A new
route, /invites/retrieve, is introduced to fetch an already
created invite by email address.
This feature used to be controlled by two site settings
enable_personal_email_messages and min_trust_to_send_email_messages.
I removed enable_personal_email_messages and unhide
min_trust_to_send_email_messages to simplify the process of
enabling / disabling this feature.
* FEATURE: Cache successful HTTP GET requests during Oneboxing
Some oneboxes may fail if when making excessive and/or odd requests against the target domains. This change provides a simple mechanism to cache the results of succesful GET requests as part of the oneboxing process, with the goal of reducing repeated requests and ultimately improving the rate of successful oneboxing.
To enable:
Set `SiteSetting.cache_onebox_response_body` to `true`
Add the domains you’re interesting in caching to `SiteSetting. cache_onebox_response_body_domains` e.g. `example.com|example.org|example.net`
Optionally set `SiteSetting.cache_onebox_user_agent` to a user agent string of your choice to use when making requests against domains in the above list.
* FIX: Swap order of duration and value in redis call
The correct order for `setex` arguments is `key`, `duration`, and `value`.
Duration and value had been flipped, however the code would not have thrown an error because we were caching the value of `1.day.to_i` for a period of 1 seconds… The intention appears to be to set a value of 1 (purely as a flag) for a period of 1 day.
When bulk inviting, the uploaded CSV file may contain wrong values for
the user fields. This tries to automatically correct them by finding
the most similar option (by ignoring the case).
For 'local logins', the UX for staged users is designed to be identical to unregistered users. However, staged users logging in via external auth were being automatically unstaged, and skipping the registration/invite flow. In the past this made sense because the registration/invite flows didn't work perfectly with external auth. Now, both registration and invites work well with external auth, so it's best to leave the 'unstage' logic to those endpoints.
This problem was particularly noticeable when using the 'bulk invite' feature to invite users with pre-configured User Fields. In that situation, staged user accounts are used to preserve the user field data.
It makes SimpleCov work with turbo_rspec and uses the default Rails
configuration (with some changes) to groups files by their type
(models, controllers, etc).
Admins can use bulk invites to pre-populate user fields. The imported
CSV file must have a header with "email" column (first position) and
names of the user fields (exact match).
Under the hood, the bulk invite will create staged users and populate
the user fields of those.
Because bookmarks have both topic and post ID, when the post was moved into another topic the bookmark was still attached to the post but did not show in the UI. This PR makes it so the all topic IDs for bookmarks attached to a post are updated when a post is moved.
Also included is a migration to fix affected records (e.g. on Meta there are 20 affected records).
See: https://meta.discourse.org/t/improved-bookmarks-with-reminders/144542/203
This is called in DiscourseTagging.tag_topic_by_names only after
all the validations etc. have been passed, and after topic.tags = X
has been called (because this is when the associations are created/
destroyed). The event has the topic, then a second param with the
old and new tag names in arrays for easy inspection.
I was adding specs to ensure that post actions and uploads are removed for permanently deleted posts.
I noticed that post revisions were not permanently destroyed. I added a migration to fix old data.
The instance of the PostRevisor is passed to the post_edited
event. It is useful to know what has happened to the topic in
this event (we already pass a boolean for topic_changed? but that
is not so helpful by itself).
When overriding the translation for i18n keys used in user notifications
like user_notifications.reply_by_email, errors were returned for
valid interpolation keys. Keys like topic_title_url_encoded are
supported, so no error should be raised.

* DEV: upgrade mini_sql
Even though we are not planning on using this quite yet, mini_sql now supports
prepared statements.
Would like this upgrade merged so we can do some benchmarking.
Note, this will not work with pg_bouncer, but sites that are not using it
may benefit from the feature.
* implement multisite friendly prepared statements
Fixes `Rack::Lint::LintError: a header value must be a String, but the value of 'Retry-After' is a Integer`. (see: 14a236b4f0/lib/rack/lint.rb (L676))
I found it when I got flooded by those warning a while back in a test-related accident 😉 (ember CLI tests were hitting a local rails server at a fast rate)
Find & Replace and Autotag watched words were not completely exported
and import did not work with these either. This commit changes the
input and output format to CSV, which allows for a secondary column.
This change is backwards compatible because a CSV file with only one
column has one value per line.
browser-update script does not work correctly in some very old browsers
because the contents of <noscript> is not accessible in JavaScript.
For these browsers, the server can display the crawler page and add the
browser update notice.
Simply loading the browser-update script in the crawler view is not a
solution because that means all crawlers will also see it.
The regular expression to detect private IP addresses did not always detect them successfully.
Changed to use ruby's in-built IPAddr.new(ip_address).private? method instead
which does the same thing but covers all cases.
Users can now pin bookmarks from their bookmark list. This will anchor the bookmark to the top of the list, and show a pin icon next to it. This also applies in the nav bookmarks panel. If there are multiple pinned bookmarks they sort by last updated order.
We currently make an AJAX request every time someone opens the hamburger menu, resulting in a forbidden response when a user can't see the review queue.
We previously included this option conditionally when users were replying
or creating a new topic while they had content already in the composer.
This makes the dialog always include three buttons:
- Close and discard
- Close and save draft for later
- Keed editing
This also changes how the backend notifies the frontend when there is
a current draft topic. This is now sent via the `has_topic_draft`
property in the current user serializer.
This PR allows invitations to be used when the DiscourseConnect SSO is enabled for a site (`enable_discourse_connect`) and local logins are disabled. Previously invites could not be accepted with SSO enabled simply because we did not have the code paths to handle that logic.
The invitation methods that are supported include:
* Inviting people to groups via email address
* Inviting people to topics via email address
* Using invitation links generated by the Invite Users UI in the /my/invited/pending route
The flow works like this:
1. User visits an invite URL
2. The normal invitation validations (redemptions/expiry) happen at that point
3. We store the invite key in a secure session
4. The user clicks "Accept Invitation and Continue" (see below)
5. The user is redirected to /session/sso then to the SSO provider URL then back to /session/sso_login
6. We retrieve the invite based on the invite key in secure session. We revalidate the invitation. We show an error to the user if it is not valid. An additional check here for invites with an email specified is to check the SSO email matches the invite email
7. If the invite is OK we create the user via the normal SSO methods
8. We redeem the invite and activate the user. We clear the invite key in secure session.
9. If the invite had a topic we redirect the user there, otherwise we redirect to /
Note that we decided for SSO-based invites the `must_approve_users` site setting is ignored, because the invite is a form of pre-approval, and because regular non-staff users cannot send out email invites or generally invite to the forum in this case.
Also deletes some group invite checks as per https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/12353
We override the default replacements rule to no longer replace "(c)", "(p)", and "(p)". Additionally, we merged the custom arrows rule into the replacement function.
* FIX: Be able to handle long file extensions
Some applications have really long file extensions, but if we truncate
them weird behavior ensues.
This commit changes the file extension size from 10 characters to 255
characters instead.
See:
https://meta.discourse.org/t/182824
* Keep truncation at 10, but allow uppercase and dashes
Component SCSS compilation should use the current theme's SCSS color
variables as a fallback before using the default core colors.
This is mostly a backwards-compatibility fix, new themes and components
should use CSS custom properties, which offer better support for on-the-fly
color scheme changes (dark mode support, etc.).
The user mailing list mode continued to be silently enabled and
UserEmail job checked just that ignoring site setting
disable_mailing_list_mode.
An additional migrate was added to set disable_mailing_list_mode
to false if any users enabled the mailing list mode already.
Currently the process of adding a custom image to badge is quite clunky; you have to upload your image to a topic, and then copy the image URL and pasting it in a text field. Besides being clucky, if the topic or post that contains the image is deleted, the image will be garbage-collected in a few days and the badge will lose the image because the application is not that the image is referenced by a badge.
This commit improves that by adding a proper image uploader widget for badge images.
It was used both when inviting from a topic page and when creating
invites with "Send to topic on first login", while it should be used
only in the former case.
Corrects flaky spec
Previously we were only clearing state after our spec ran, leaving possible
edge cases where `Discourse.plugins` had data.
Clean-up source of the plugin leak
1 pop was not enough to clear the plugin, plus make specs a bit more
deliberate
The cluster name can be configured by setting the `DISCOURSE_CLUSTER_NAME` environment variable. If set, you can then call /srv/status with a `?cluster=` parameter. If the cluster does not match, an error will be returned. This is useful if you need a load balancer to be able to verify the identity, as well as the presence, of an application container.
When creating a PM target_usernames has been deprecated for some time
now but the api docs have yet to reflect this.
The api docs now specify to use target_recipients.
See: eef21625c6
When transitioning from a tag topic list e.g. /tag/alerts
to the / route the topic list was not reloaded because the
same preload key was used for both lists (topic_list_latest).
The topic list was only reloaded when clicking on the / route
a second time because then it is forced to reload.
In the topic list adapter, we call `PreloadStore.getAndRemove` to
get the topic lists:
534777f5fd/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/app/adapters/topic-list.js (L34-L41)
Now instead of both / and /tag/alerts sharing the same preload
key of `topic_list_latest`, the tag has a key of `topic_list_tag/alerts/l/latest`
Staff can send a post to the review queue by clicking the "Flag Post" button next to "Take Action...". Clicking it flags the post using the "Notify moderators" score type and hides it. A custom message will be sent to the user.
This is not recommended. But if you have other protections in place for CSRF mitigation, you may wish to disable Discourse's implementation. This site setting is not visible in the UI, and must be changed via the console.
It has been observed that doing a HEAD against an Amazon store URL may result in a 405 error being returned.
Skipping the HEAD request may result in an improved oneboxing experience when requesting these URLs.
Onebox content may only be resolved during the process_post job. Onebox content could change the content of the excerpt, so we need to make sure the excerpt is updated accordingly.
The user and an admin could create multiple email change requests for
the same user. If any of the requests was validated and it became
primary, the other request could not be deleted anymore.
* FEATURE: allow category group moderators to pin/unpin topics
Category group moderators should be able to pin/unpin any topics within a category where they have appropraite category group moderator permissions.
Previously, we blocked search engines in tag pages since they may get marked as a duplicate content.
* DEV: block tag inner pages from search engines crawling.
Prior to this change, we had weights for very_high, high, low and
very_low. This means there were 4 weights to tweak and what weights to
use for `very_high/high` and `very_low/low` pair was hard to explain.
This change makes it such that `very_high` search priority will always
ensure that the posts are ranked at the top while `very_low` search
priority will ensure that the posts are ranked at the very bottom.
* FIX: Do not show expired invites under Pending tab
* DEV: Controller action was renamed in previous commit
* FEATURE: Add 'Expired' tab to invites
* FEATURE: Refresh model after removing expired invites
* FEATURE: Do not immediately add invite to the list
Opening the 'create-invite' modal used to automatically generate an
invite to reserve an invite link. If the user did not save it and
closed the modal, the invite would be destroyed. This operations caused
the invite list to change in the background and confuse users.
* FEATURE: Sort redeemed users by creation time
* UX: Improve show / hide advanced options link
* FIX: Show redeemed users even if invites were trashed
* UX: Change modal title when editing invite
* UX: Remove Get Link button
Users can get it from the edit modal
* FEATURE: Add limit for invite links generated by regular users
* FEATURE: Add option to skip email
* UX: Show better error messages
* FIX: Show "Invited by" even if invite was trashed
Follow up to 1fdfa13a099d8e46edd0c481b3aaaafe40455ced.

Follow up to c86379a465f28a3cc64a4a8c939cf32cf2931659.
* DEV: Use a buffer to hold all changed data
* FEATURE: Close modal after save
* FEATURE: Rate limit resend invite email
* FEATURE: Make the save buttons smarter
* FEATURE: Do not always send email even for new invites
The Guardian object memoizes a list of allowed user fields. Normally this is fine because Guardian objects only persist for a single request. However, the WebHook class was memoizing a guardian at the class level. This meant that an app restart was required for changes to be reflected. Plus, the Guardian was being shared across all sites in a multisite instance.
Initializing a guardian is cheap, so we can manage without memoization here.
Mailing list mode can generate significant email volume, especially on sites with a large user base. Disable mailing list mode via site settings by default so sites don't experience an unexpectedly large cost from outgoing email.
The urls that we generate for mobile post notifications don't take into
account the subfolder url if a site happens to have one configured. When
this happens when you tap on a new mobile notification it takes you to
a url that doesn't work because it is missing the subfolder portion.
I honestly think this should be handled in the Post model like we do
with the Topic model. `Post.url` should know how to handle subfolder
installs, but that seemed like a very risky change because there are
lots of other places in the codebase where we tack on the base_path and
I didn't want to risk duplicating it.
I also found a small typo in the topics controller spec.
A missing email when accepting an invite link does not make sense so we
should make it a required param which helps to catch bugs in our test
suite and also prevent potential bugs in our code base when the code
trips on a `nil` email.
The user interface has been reorganized to show email and link invites
in the same screen. Staff has more control over creating and updating
invites. Bulk invite has also been improved with better explanations.
On the server side, many code paths for email and link invites have
been merged to avoid duplicated logic. The API returns better responses
with more appropriate HTTP status codes.
