Most important is adding the icons to help users understand the
recipients of the stream, but we also use clearer language that better
matches that present in the user interface.
Created a schema for the ignored_parameters_unsupported that is
returned by the /settings and /realm/user_settings_defaults endpoints
and removed the duplicated text in the api documentation.
Also cleaned up some small errors in the /realm/user_settings_default
definition and sidebar link /api/update-realm-user-settings-defaults.
Fixes#19674
Keycloak docs say:
https://www.keycloak.org/getting-started/getting-started-docker
```
By default there is a single realm in Keycloak called master. This is
dedicated to manage Keycloak and should not be used for your own
applications.
```
Thus we should change what we assume the Keycloak realm to be to avoid
assuming as a default a practice
that Keycloak disourages.
Oops, I have a couple of changes here:
1) Adding a "Create user groups" section to the new org guide.
2) Moving a tip out of how-to-invite-users-to-join.md, so that I
can reuse that section in the Zulip for clases guide I'm working
on without having the tip in it.
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.
The previous heading was one size too small, and thus was easily
missed when visually skimming for the information.
Additionally, give it a more natural label.
This better matches the title of the page and more generally our
conventions around naming /help/ articles. We include a redirect
because this is referenced from Welcome Bot messages, and we
definitely don't want those links to break.
The Entity ID for zulipchat.com is `https://zulipchat.com` currently.
Some of these errors happened in the big zulipchat->zulip rename commit
71078adc50, then it was repeated in
10d356d2de and there was also some
confusion when coming up with the instructions for Keycloack in
10d356d2de. Client-ID value in Keycloack
is the expected Issuer for SAMLRequests and thus needs to match our
Entity ID.
On zulipchat.com we use SOCIAL_AUTH_SUBDOMAIN='auth', meaning
python-social-auth backend flows go through auth.zulipchat.com rather
than staying on the original subdomain.
On our Markdown help docs, ordered lists that aren't encapsulated
in tabs don't have custom CSS that tells them how to display
themselves with proper indentation. An example of a doc that has
this issue is /help/saml-authentication. This commit adds some CSS
that targets such ordered lists.
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.
This commit updates the documentation to mention that
only owners can change who can send invitations.
We also add the newly added "Nobody" option for this
setting in the documentation.
This API change removes unnecessary complexity from a client that
wants to change a user's personal settings, and also saves developers
from needing to make decisions about what sort of setting something is
at the API level.
We preserve the old settings endpoints as mapping to the same function
as the new one for backwards-compatibility. We delete the
documentation for the old endpoints, though the documentation for the
merged /settings endpoint mentions how to use the old endpoints when
needed.
We migrate all backend tests to the new endpoints, except for
individual tests for each legacy endpoint to verify they still work.

Currently, the "Home" link at the top takes one to the doc root,
i.e., /help or /api. This is a little misleading since "Home"
seems to be more synonymous with the Zulip homepage.
This commit adds a proper backlink to the top logo that takes you to
the homepage and renames "Home" to be more specific. The text after
"|" will now take you to the doc root instead (/help or /api). Note
that this allows us to link the /help and /api pages from the
homepage while ensuring that backlinks allow the visitor to get back
to the homepage.
The presence setting is more suited in 'Account & privacy'
section as it is not related to notifications in anyway
and resembles privacy of user by allowing user to hide
his status of being online.
The user timezone is only used for user's profile, so we can
move this setting to the Profile panel of settings and this
will also help us in covering some space when there are no
custom profile fields for the organization.
This commit fixes the documentation of settings as we have
replaced "Your account" section into two new sections -
"Profile" and "Account & privacy".
This commit also fixes a comment in the test for settings
documentation in test_middleware.py.
This commit addresses @timabbott 's comments, by adding a new article
"Move content to another topic".
Thanks to the new article, I also simplified a step from the "Rename a
topic" article to keep it focused on renaming only.
* Move content on moving topics between streams to a dedicated
article. We advertise it as "move content" to hint that one can move
messages or split topics, and link to it.
* This deletes change-the-topic-of-a-message, because the same content
is already covered in rename-a-topic.
* This commit mostly just moves content between articles. Most of that
content was redundant with the first few paragraphs of the surviving
"rename a topic" article. The former "This is useful for" se ntence
was adapted to the remaining article.
* This commit also adds a redirect for the removed article, and
updates related links.
After adding owner role, we allow last admin to deactivate
but not allow the last owner to deactivate, and this commit
fixes the warning about not allowing last admin.
This isn't the best writing, but it'll help us remember to cover these
details when we do a major pass on this article after adding upcoming
status changes.
The Hubot project looks to be abandoned; it hasn’t been updated in
years and its own installation instructions don’t work anymore.
Remove our special placement of Hubot alongside Zapier and IFTTT.

This commit updates the docs as the setting for invites
is separated into two UI elements - a checkbox for
'are invites required to join organization' and a
dropdown for setting 'who can invite new users'.
The message-editing section of settings is moved from "Organization
Settings" to "Organization Permissions", which feels like a more
natural place for these settings.
Because our mention logic now has a way to distinguish a user with one of these
weird names from a wildcard mention, we no longer need this explicit warning.
(It'd still be a bit confusing, but no more so than various other weird names you could
invest).
The command:
codespell --skip='./locale,*.svg,./docs/translating,postgresql.conf.template.erb,.*fixtures,./yarn.lock,./docs/THIRDPARTY,./tools/setup/emoji/emoji_names.py,./tools/setup/emoji/emoji_map.json,./zerver/management/data/unified_reactions.json' --ignore-words=codespell_ignore_words.txt .

We don't want to claim something so strong as the first of this text,
because the mutee can still guess that they have been muted if the
muter suddenly starts completely ignoring messages, especially PMs.
But this framing is better in retaining the perspective as you.
We use styling same as that of the number shown for overflow
(e.g "+3") which has a gray background.
To keep these avatars up-to-date, we need to rerender the
recent topics view after receiving a `muted_users` event.
Also update the user documentation to mention this detail.
We deliberately avoid mentioning "recent topics" because
this applies to mobile too.
Also link to it from the API documentation page,
other help pages, and the confirmation dialog for
muting a user.
With substantial edits by tabbott and alya.
In 215320bc72, we added the typeahead for
the `pygments_name` field which helped lookup the human-readable
`pretty_name`. However, we forgot to remove the workaround method
mentioned in the docs to lookup the name before the typeahead was
introduced.
As we change the icon for Group PMs in #18160, the docs related
to it is now outdated. This commit removes the documentation part
that is outdated from status-and-availability section.
* Move the extended documentation of code blocks to a separate page.
* Merge "code playgrounds" documentation to be a section of that page.
* Document copy widget on code blocks.
* This commit changes how we refer to "```python" type syntax for code
blocks. Instead of being called a syntax highlighting label, this is
now referred to as a "language tag", since it serves both syntax
highlighting and playgrounds.
* Remap all the links.
* Advertise this new page in various places that previously did not have a link.
Linked the Help Center document in places like
- zulip.yaml (/events, /register/, realm/playgrounds,
/realm/playgrounds/{playground_id})
- /help/format-your-message-using-markdown (Linked to make
users reading the markdown code block style, aware of this
feature)
- /templates/settings/playground_settings_admin.hbs (Linked
as a reference to read more about playgrounds before
configuring one)
Also showcase the feature on /features and /for/open-source.
This commit fixes the following help pages -
- configure-who-can-create-a-stream.md to use "Stream permissions"
subsection and not "Other permissions".
- configure-who-can-invite-to-streams.md to use "Stream permissions"
subsection and not "Other permissions".
- restrict-wildcard-mentions.md to use "Stream permissions" subsection
and not "Organization permissions".
- restrict-bot-creation.md to use "Other permissions" subsection and
not "Organization permissions".
- restrict-visibility-of-email-addresses.md to use "User identity"
subsection and not "Organization permissions".
This commit fixes invite-new-users.md to show all the options of who
can invite under "Are invitations required for joining the organization?"
and makes this page similar to help pages for other policies.
This commit updates restrict-permissions-of-new-members.md
to add "inviting users to organization" in the list of actions
that can be restricted for new members.
We also fix the subsection of waiting_period_threshold to be
"Joining the organization".
* Add mobile app instructions for interacting with them.
* Fix inconsistent headings.
* Document the new state that starred message counts are the deafult,
and mention the "come back to" workflow for them.
Commit dc67870 introduced a user confirmation modal before
deleting profile picture, leaving the user documentation
unchanged.
Added a commit to reflect the newly added change within
the user documentation as well.
This commit adds both frontend and backend code to invite a user as
moderator. We allow only existing owners and admins to invite a user
as a moderator.
We'll extend this in the future with details on what is configurable,
but this at least ensures we don't have a state where they don't
appear in our documentation at all.
In general, `./scripts/restart-server` will already work in any
circumstance where the server is already stopped and needs to be
started. However, it will output a couple minor warnings, and it is
not readily obvious that it *will* work correctly.
Add an alias for `restart-server` named `start-server`, for
parallelism with `stop-server`, which omits the steps of
`restart-server` which would stop the server first.
Using `supervisorctl stop all` to stop the server is not terribly
discoverable, and may stop services which are not part of Zulip
proper.
Add an explicit tool which only stops the relevant services. It also
more carefully controls the order in which services are stopped to
minimize lost requests, and maximally quiesce the server.
Locations which may be stopping _older_ versions of Zulip (without
this script) are left with using `supervisorctl stop all`.
Fixes#14959.
This reverses the policy that was set, but incompletely enforced, by
commit 951514dd7d. The self-closing tag
syntax is clearer, more consistent, simpler to parse, compatible with
XML, preferred by Prettier, and (most importantly now) required by
FormatJS.

This commit adds an API to `zproject/urls.py` to edit/update
the realm linkifier. Its helper function to update the
database is added in `zerver/lib/actions.py`.
`zulip.yaml` is documented accordingly as well, clearly
stating that this API updates one linkifier at a time.
The tests are added for the API and helper function which
updates the realm linkifier.
Fixes#10830.
This widget only filters the user's subscription -- it's only suggest
public streams that the user is not subscribed to. "Filter" is the
correct label for a widget with this use case.
We had a mix of the two names, and "video call provider" both feels
more professional and more clear about precisely what it does.
We don't change the API fields, since it doesn't seem worth an API
migration.
Documentation about using and configuring different video
call providers was present at /help/start-a-call. This
documentation was later moved to /integrations as asked in
issue #17588. So to avoid redundancy most of the documentation
in /help/start-a-call is removed, by providing appropriate
links, pointing to where new documentation lives.
Fixes: #17588.
This is a preparatory commit that documents
steps for setting a video chat provider for an
organization. It is added as a separate section
in /help/start-a-call. Permalinks to this section
are utilized in succeeding commits which move
documentation of our video call providers to
`/integrations`, as asked in issue #17588.
Tweaked by tabbott for clearer/more consist language.
This commit adds a "Create your own" button on the integrations page. It
redirects to "api/integrations-overview" page and is placed by the side
of "Request an Integration" button.
Fixes#7935
There was no proper documentation to guide user to request an integration.
The following changes documents the whole process and links it from the
`/integrations/` page making it visible to the end-user.
Fixes#7935
Similar to the previous commit, we have added a `do_*` function
which does the deletion from the DB. The next commit handles sending
the events when both adding and deleting a playground entry.
Added the openAPI format data to zulip.yaml for DELETE
/realm/playgrounds/{playground_id}. Also added python and curl
examples to remove-playground.md.
Tests added.
This endpoint will allow clients to create a playground entry
containing the name, pygments language and url_prefix for the
playground of their choice.
Introduced the `do_*` function in-charge of creating the entry in
the model. Handling the process of sending events which will be
done in a follow up commit.
Added the openAPI format data to zulip.yaml for POST
/realm/playgrounds. Also added python and curl examples for using
the endpoint in its markdown documented (add-playground.md).
Tests added.
Adds backend code for the mute users feature.
This is just infrastructure work (database
interactions, helpers, tests, events, API docs
etc) and does not involve any behavioral/semantic
aspects of muted users.
Adds POST and DELETE endpoints, to keep the
URL scheme mostly consistent in terms of `users/me`.
TODOs:
1. Add tests for exporting `zulip_muteduser` database table.
2. Add dedicated methods to python-zulip-api to be used
in place of the current `client.call_endpoint` implementation.
