This helps increase the probability that folks read the guidelines for how the
chat.zulip.org community works and what streams to use before arriving there.
Fixes#19827.
The user id is a very useful piece of information that the mobile
client should have access to - instead of only getting the email. This
makes it much simpler to impleent clients that might be robust to
changes in email address.
Previously, our codebase contained links to various versions of the
Django docs, eg https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/
request-response/#django.http.HttpRequest and https://
docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/settings/#std:setting-SERVER_EMAIL
opening a link to a doc with an outdated Django version would show a
warning "This document is for an insecure version of Django that is no
longer supported. Please upgrade to a newer release!".
Most of these links are inside comments.
Following the replacement of these links in our docs, this commit uses
a search with the regex "docs.djangoproject.com/en/([0-9].[0-9]*)/"
and replaces all matches with "docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/".
All the new links in this commit have been generated by the above
replace and each link has then been manually checked to ensure that
(1) the page still exists and has not been moved to a new location
(and it has been found that no page has been moved like this), (2)
that the anchor that we're linking to has not been changed (and it has
been found that no anchor has been changed like this).
One comment where we mentioned a Django version in text before linking
to a page for that version has also been changed, the comment
mentioned the specific version when a change happened, and the history
is no longer relevant to us.
This links to the release lifecycle documentation and is a bit more
explicit about how to use this.
Probably further improvement would be useful as well.
Add `escape_navigates_to_default_view` as a bool setting in
UserBaseSettings model and implement it as a checkbox that toggles
the hotkey implementation of escape to the default view in the
advanced user display settings.
With /help/ documentation edits from Alya Abbott.
Fixes#20043.
* Remove unnecessary json_validator for full_name parameter.
* Update frontend to pass the right parameter.
* Update documentation and note the change.
Fixes#18409.
This will be useful to let users enable/disable
sharing read receipts once we add that feature.
Note: Added "I've" to IGNORED_PHRASES in
tools/lib/capitalization.py to avoid capitalization
errors for the label text of this setting.
Note: These are not functional in enabling/disabling sending of
typing notifications with this commit.
Refactored the privacy settings update to keep the code less
duplicated along with making the addition of new settings easier.
This commit adds create_web_public_stream_policy
field to Realm table which controls the roles that
can create web-public streams and by default its
value is set to POLICY_OWNERS_ONLY.
Users wanted a feature where they could specify
which users can create public streams and which users can
create private streams.
This splits stream creation code into two parts,
public and private stream creation.
Fixes#17009.
This commit replaces 'allow_message_deleting' boolean setting
with an integer setting 'delete_own_message_policy'. We have a
separate dropdown now for deciding which user-roles can delete
messages sent by themselves and the time-limit setting droddown
is different.
This new setting has two options - everyone and admins only. Other
options including moderators will be added further.
We also remove the "Never" option from the original time-limit
dropdown, as admins are always allowed to delete message. This
never option resembled the case of only admins being allowed to
delete but this state is now resembled by setting the dropdown
to "admins only" and we also disable the time-limit dropdown in
this case as admins are allowed to delete irrespective of limit.
Note, this setting is only for deleting messages sent by the
deleting user themselves, and only admins are allowed to delete
messages sent by others as before.
We make zero invalid value for message_content_delete_limit_seconds and
for handling the case of "Allow to delete message any time", the API-level
value of message_content_delete_limit_seconds is "anytime" and "None"
as the DB-level value. We also use these values for message retention
setting, so it helps maintain consistency.
Apparently, our slack compatible outgoing webhook format didn't
exactly match Slack, especially in the types used for values. Fix
this by using a much more consistent format, where we preserve their
pattern of prefixing IDs with letters.
This fixes a bug where Zulip's team_id could be the empty string,
which tripped up using GitLab's slash commands with Zulip.
Fixes#19588.
This commit removes the existing default_twenty_four_hour_time field in
Realm table which was used to set the twenty_four_hour_time setting of
new user on joining and instead we now use the twenty_four_hour_time
field of RealmUserDefault table for the same.
With some tweaks by tabbott to clarify the documentation.
We allow clients to make existing streams web public via the API.
This feature is still disabled via settings in production
environments, because we may have additional policy rules or UI
warnings we wish to add to this sort of conversion.
User can now create web public stream via the /subscribe API.
So, when a web public stream present in the API request does not
exist, it will be created now by specifying the is_web_public
parameter. The parameter would have been ignored without this
commit.
Now, when we add a custom animated emoji to the realm
we also save a still image of it (1st frame of the gif). So
we can avoid showing an animated emoji every time.
This commit adds do_set_realm_user_default_setting which
will be used to change the realm-level defaults of settings
for new users.
We also add a new event type "realm_user_settings_defaults"
for these settings and a "realm_user_settings_default" object
in '/register' response containing all the realm-level default
settings.
This commit adds `demo_organization_scheduled_deletion_date` to
the `realm` section of the `/register` response so that it is
available to clients when enabled.
This is a part of #19523.
This commit indicates that the realm_message_retention_days field can have
a special value, similar to its stream counterpart, and also explains how
the special value changed over different server versions.
With an extension from tabbott to double-enter the changelog entry.

These changes are all independent of each other; I just didn’t feel
like making dozens of commits for them.

This commit updates both the stream-level and realm-level message
retention setting to use 'unlimited' instead of 'forever' to set
message retention setting to "retain messages forever".
We added "user_settings" object containing all the user settings in
previous commit. This commit modifies the code to send the existing
setting fields in the top-level object only if user_settings_object
client_capabilities field is False.
This commit adds "user_settings_object" field to
client_capabilities which will be used to determine
if the client needs 'update_display_settings' and
'update_global_notifications' event.
We send a event with type 'user_settings' on updating user's display
and notification settings.
The old event types - 'update_global_notifications' and
'update_display_settings', are still supported for backwards
compatibility.
Return zulip_merge_base alongside zulip_version
in `/register`, `/event` and `/server_settings`
endpoint so that the value can be used by other
clients.
These were added at some point in the past, but were not complete, and
it makes sense to document the current feature level as and when they
become available, since clients should not use the drafts endpoints on
older feature levels.
In this commit:
* We update the `UserStatus` model to accept
`AbstractReaction` as a base class so, we can get all the
fields related to store status emoji.
* We update the user status endpoint
(`users/me/status`) to accept status emoji fields.
* We update the user status event to add status emoji
fields.

This commit replaces boolean field add_emoji_by_admins_only with an
integer field add_custom_emoji_policy as we would also add full members
and moderators option for this setting in further commits.
