Previously, clicking "Groups" on the admin dashboard would bring you to the public groups page. Historically, the public and admin actions have been mixed together on that page.
This is a bit of a frustrating experience when working on the admin dashboard, and also prevented us from adding a "Settings" tab for group-related site settings.
This PR adds an "admin groups" page, which is just an exact copy of the public groups index for now. This allows us to add the "Settings" tab, and lets us gradually work un disentangling the public- and admin parts of groups.
This commits changes the language for components that aren't used on any themes to be "used/unused" instead of "active/inactive" throughout the new components listing page.
On sites with many components, serializing and rendering all components
in one-go on a page can take quite a bit of time. The new components
listing page that was introduced in
https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/32164 currently loads all
components in one-go, so this commit implements infinite-scrolling
pagination for the page to address this performance issue for sites with
many components.
When a watched words CSV file is uploaded, we assume it's utf-8 encoded, but that's not always going to be the case. This change loads the CSV and converts it to utf-8 before processing it.
Follow-up to https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/31887
This commit introduces a new design for the components listing page, which
is not linked from anywhere in the UI at the moment, but it can be
accessed by heading to the `/admin/config/customize/components` path
directly. We'll make this new design available from the sidebar and
remove the old page once we've tested and validated the new design
internally.

New configure fonts section was added. Because now we have two sections
completed (logos and fonts), new /branding page was introduced and old
/logo and /font pages was removed.
When text size is changed, modal is displayed to ask if preferences of
existing users should be retrospectively updated.

Some site settings support backfilling if the user specified it. This works fine for singular site settings sent to the SiteSettingsController#update endpoint, but with bulk save we need to support this for a list of settings as well.
This change alters the params format for SiteSetting::Update.
It also moves the backfill logic into the service.
This PR moves the logic that checks if a site setting we're trying to update has been deprecated from one of the controllers into a policy of the SiteSetting::Update service.
It also gives us the opportunity to shift the error message into a locale file.
There are a number of minor changes in this commit :
1. Combine the "Themes" and "Components" links in the admin sidebar into
a single tab labelled "Themes and components"
2. The combined tab links to the `/admin/config/customize/themes` page
(titled as "Themes and components")
3. Add a new "Components" tab to the "Themes and components" page.
There's already an existing "Themes" tab
4. Add a "back to" link at the top of individual theme/component page to
navigate back to the respective tab in the "Themes and components" page
5. Remove the themes/components list/sidebar that currently serves for
navigating between themes/components
6. Remove the header in the theme/component page
Changes 4–6 apply only if the admin sidebar is enabled; they have no
effect otherwise.

This list of all reports is needed in the admin search
controller as well, so this commit refactors it into
a service, adds specs, and also updates the admin
search code to use this new service & avoid a second
AJAX call to the server.
Redesigned page to update site logos. `AdminBrandingLogoFormComponent`
is attached to the old logos page and the new branding page. In the next
steps, branding will replace the logos page.
A new `AdminConfigAreaCardSection` component was added hidden and less
frequently used settings.
An image placeholder was also needed because many additional logos have
a fallback to the site logo.
Finally, `twitter_summary_large_image` was renamed to
`x_summary_large_image`.

Adds extra functionality and tests for the admin search modal.
* Show third level plugin config pages in search, e.g. AI Usage
* Remember last used search filters
* Allow navigating search results with keyboard, using tab or up/down
and enter to go to result
* Add a placeholder beneath search input to tell the admin what to do
* Add a full page search at `/admin/search` which can be reached from
pressing Enter on the search input
* Add specs for modal and full page search
* Change admin sidebar filter "no results found" to point to full page
search
* Add keyboard shortcut help to modal for admin search
Previously, the SiteSetting::Update service allowed to update of a
single site setting. In the About controller, we were using the loop
through all settings -
https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/app/controllers/admin/config/about_controller.rb#L39
It is suboptimal because if the 3 first settings are saved and the
fourth is invalid, we will end with partially updated data.
Changing SiteSetting::Update to accept hash means that we will check
upfront if none of the settings are hidden or invalid and update all or
none.
Custom policies are used to report which settings are failing.
This feature allows admins to find what they are
looking for in the admin interface via a search modal.
This replaces the admin sidebar filter
as the focus of the Ctrl+/ command, but the sidebar
filter can also still be used. Perhaps at some point
we may remove it or change the shortcut.
The search modal presents the following data for filtering:
* A list of all admin pages, the same as the sidebar,
except also showing "third level" pages like
"Email > Skipped"
* All site settings
* Themes
* Components
* Reports
Admins can also filter which types of items are shown in the modal,
for example hiding Settings if they know they are looking for a Page.
In this PR, I also have the following fixes:
* Site setting filters now clear when moving between
filtered site setting pages, previously it was super
sticky from Ember
* Many translations were moved around, instead of being
in various namespaces for the sidebar links and the admin
page titles and descriptions, now everything is under
`admin.config` namespace, this makes it way easier to reuse
this text for pages, search, and sidebar, and if you change it
in one place then it is changed everywhere.

Currently, if creating an API key in "granular" mode, and not selecting any scopes, a globally scoped API key is created. This can be surprising and is not ideal. Having a key with no scopes isn't useful in the first place, so this PR adds client- and server side validations to check that at least one scope is selected if using "granular" mode.
Plugins like for example AI or Akismet create reviewable items. When the
plugin is disabled, then we cannot properly handle those items.
In that situation, we should display warnings about unhandled types.
Instruct admin to reenable plugins. In addition, we should allow the
admin to delete all pending reviews from disabled plugins.
This commit adds a new Localization config page for
admins, as a basic filtered site setting page similar
to Legal and Notifications. Included settings are:
* default locale
* allow user locale
* set locale from accept langauge header
* onebox locale
* display local time in user card
* discourse local dates enabled
* support mixed text direction
* unicode usernames
* allowed unicode username characters
It seems from the original commit notes that this was only included as a query
optimisation, but doing so leads to confusion: https://meta.discourse.org/t/348688
Searching for outbound mail to an address should find that address regardless
of whether or not the mail type to search for is explicitly `group_smtp`.
This adds the Silence Reason column to silenced user lists.
This feature helps combat large spam attacks cause you can quickly see
why a user was silenced and then bulk act on all the silenced users
The customize routes add CSS classes that make these admin
config pages look different from the ones under /admin/config.
We want all config routes to be under /admin/config as well.
This commit moves the emoji, user fields, and permalinks pages
out of customize and into config, updating all references and
adding more rails routes as needed.
Also renames admin emojis route to emoji, emoji is singular and plural.
Setting tab should be added to permalinks so admins do not need to have left `/permalinks`.
A new component called `AreaSetting` was added to avoid duplications and
simplify adding settings to other sections.
Previously when attempting to edit a globally shadowed setting, the
error message was not very helpful, it said "You are not allowed to
change hidden settings". This commit changes the error message to
reflect the actual problem, which is that the setting is shadowed by
a global setting via ENV var.
Sometimes changes to "What's new?" feed items are made or the feed items are
removed altogether, and the polling interval to check for new features is 1 day.
This is quite long, so this commit introduces a "Check for updates"
button for admins to click on the "What's new?" page which will bust
the cache for the feed and check again at the new features endpoint.
This is limited to 5 times per minute to avoid rapid sending of
requests.
This commit introduces a new feature that allows staff to bulk select and delete users directly from the users list at `/admin/users/list`. The main use-case for this feature is make deleting spammers easier when a site is under a large spam attack.

This moves the logic of setting the correct permalink values back into the controller. And it replaces the validation with a simpler one, that always works, even when the model is loaded from the DB.
Follow-up to #29634 which broke import scripts and lots of documentation on Meta.
Redesign the permalinks page to follow the UX guide. In addition, the ability to edit permalinks was added.
This change includes:
- move to RestModel
- added Validations
- update endpoint and clear old values after the update
- system specs and improvements for unit tests
This commit adds a new "Community title" field to the about config page. This field controls the `short_site_description` setting, which is shown in the browser tab for key pages such categories pages and topic lists.

This patch replaces the parameters provided to a service through
`params` by the contract object.
That way, it allows better consistency when accessing input params. For
example, if you have a service without a contract, to access a
parameter, you need to use `params[:my_parameter]`. But with a contract,
you do this through `contract.my_parameter`. Now, with this patch,
you’ll be able to access it through `params.my_parameter` or
`params[:my_parameter]`.
Some methods have been added to the contract object to better mimic a
Hash. That way, when accessing/using `params`, you don’t have to think
too much about it:
- `params.my_key` is also accessible through `params[:my_key]`.
- `params.my_key = value` can also be done through `params[:my_key] =
value`.
- `#slice` and `#merge` are available.
- `#to_hash` has been implemented, so the contract object will be
automatically cast as a hash by Ruby depending on the context. For
example, with an AR model, you can do this: `user.update(**params)`.
Currently in services, we don’t make a distinction between input
parameters, options and dependencies.
This can lead to user input modifying the service behavior, whereas it
was not the developer intention.
This patch addresses the issue by changing how data is provided to
services:
- `params` is now used to hold all data coming from outside (typically
user input from a controller) and a contract will take its values from
`params`.
- `options` is a new key to provide options to a service. This typically
allows changing a service behavior at runtime. It is, of course,
totally optional.
- `dependencies` is actually anything else provided to the service (like
`guardian`) and available directly from the context object.
The `service_params` helper in controllers has been updated to reflect
those changes, so most of the existing services didn’t need specific
changes.
The options block has the same DSL as contracts, as it’s also based on
`ActiveModel`. There aren’t any validations, though. Here’s an example:
```ruby
options do
attribute :allow_changing_hidden, :boolean, default: false
end
```
And here’s an example of how to call a service with the new keys:
```ruby
MyService.call(params: { key1: value1, … }, options: { my_option: true }, guardian:, …)
```
Currently, when calling a service with its block form, a `#result`
method is automatically created on the caller object. Even if it never
clashed so far, this could happen.
This patch removes that method, and instead use a more classical way of
doing things: the result object is now provided as an argument to the
main block. This means if we need to access the result object in an
outcome block, it will be done like this from now on:
```ruby
MyService.call(params) do |result|
on_success do
# do something with the result object
do_something(result)
end
end
```
In the same vein, this patch introduces the ability to match keys from
the result object in the outcome blocks, like we already do with step
definitions in a service. For example:
```ruby
on_success do |model:, contract:|
do_something(model, contract)
end
```
Instead of
```ruby
on_success do
do_something(result.model, result.contract)
end
```
This commit brings back some reports hidden or changed
by the commit in 14b436923c5b582cea454b69441a28e16f2f191e if
the site setting `use_legacy_pageviews` is false.
* Unhide the old “Consolidated Pageviews” report and rename it
to “Legacy Consolidated Pageviews”
* Add a legacy_page_view_total_reqs report called “Legacy Pageviews”,
which calculates pageviews in the same way the old page_view_total_reqs
report did.
This will allow admins to better compare old and new pageview
stats which are based on browser detection if they have switched
over to _not_ use legacy pageviews.
