Updates help center article on viewing and editing drafts of
messages for current documentation styles (less use of bold text,
no Mac keys, tabs for Desktop/Web vs subheaders, etc), which also
preps page for mobile app documentation when drafts are supported.
Adds a new tab with the resolve/unresolve topic instructions for
mobile app users.
Makes the instructions a little more explicit so that users know they
won't see the menu unless they press and hold the topic long enough.
Also improves the wording of the instructions to access the
long-press menu so that users are more likely to read it as saying
that the whole area of a given topic, extending the whole width of
the screen, is the region they can press to act on that topic.
Fixes#22144.
This consolidates the "message recipient bar" and "left sidebar"
instructions under a "Desktop/Web" tab as proposed in issue #22178.
Rewrites the "message recipient bar" instructions as a Tip block.
This will allow adding a new tab to document the mobile feature.
Fixes part of #22144.
The content in `zulip-config.md` was moved (in #22315) to
`change-zulip-config.file.md`. This removes the now out-of-date
reference to this macro in the documentation for writing
integrations and removes the file as it is no longer in use.
Fixes help center documentation that use or reference Mac keys
for keyboard shortcuts instead of non-Mac keys since these are
not updated for users with non-Mac keyboards, while the reverse
is true.
Fixes existing errors in the help center documentation where a
keyboard shortcut that has multiple keys is all one inline code
tag (e.g. `Ctrl + [`) instead of being separated into individual
inline code tags for each key (e.g. `Ctrl` + `[`).
markdown-include is GPL licensed.
Also, rewrite it as a block processor, so that it works correctly
inside indented blocks.

The command `brew cask` is no longer a `brew` command as of Homebrew
version 3.5.2.
Updates the instruction to use `brew <command> --cask` instead.
Fixes: #22277.
Adds a "Mobile" tab with straightforward instructions for accessing
the long-press menu using two new macros.
Knowing where to access the long-press menu is intuitive, except when
the user is in a topic narrow. It's not immediately obvious that the
top bar can be long-pressed so this adds a "Tip block" using a new macro
to clarify things in this scenario.
Also, this combines the instructions for Desktop and Web into a single
tab because the numbered steps work on both platforms. So this documents
the alternate method via the browser's address bar as a "Tip block" to
avoid stacking alternative numbered steps into a single tab.
This updates the stream and message link instructions too.
Fixes: #22147.
Removes the ":" which have accidentally ended up in the "Get a link
to a specific topic" and "Get a link to a specific stream" headings.
Renames the "Via browser's address bar" tab to "Web" so that it
stays consistent with other help center articles.
Fixes part of #22147.
Fixes#22182
This message often flashes on screen briefly, causing unnecessary
worry for the user (is the app likely to not load?).
To address this, we add a delay before the message is shown.
As a consequence, we change the notice to no longer suggest waiting a
few seconds, since we did that before showing it.
Adds minimal descriptions for email and general invitation links,
and documents that email invitations are translated into the
organization's notifications language.
Removes unnecessary mention of mac keyboard shortcut because the
documentation updates when a mac keyboard is detected.
Also, removes reference to accessing group private messages from
the right sidbar.
Updates the help center documentation on subscribing users to
streams to include description for doing so via mentioning a
user while composing a message.
Fixes#21796.
Updates the documentation for configuring the notification bot to
include information about the non-configurable messages sent for
stream settings / permissions changes as well as topic resolve
events.
Adds more detailed sections / information about the configurable
aspects of the notification bot, and information about the topics
for the various messages sent by the notification bot.
Fixes#21947.
Adds a 2.1 release changelog entry for adding support for user
and stream IDs in search/narrow options. Also, adds a Changes
note in the narrow parameter in the OpenAPI `get-messages`
endpoint definition.
Both link to the api documentation for constructing a narrow,
where the 2.1 release update is already mentioned.
Fixes#9474.
Adds a new help center article focused on managing a single
user's stream subscriptions.
Creates a shared file for instructions to navigate to a user's
full profile via the right sidebar, which is used in three help
center articles.
Fixes#21795.
Adds an article for more advanced techniques and workflows for
the compose box and documents the new 'Go to conversation' button.
Also adds cross-links between compose box articles.
Fixes#21959.

Changes the admin UI for the communities directory checkbox to use
the `realm_push_notifications_enabled` page param instead of the
`server_web_public_streams_enabled` page param.
Updates help center documentation about the communities directory
to have clearer information about how the setting works for
self-hosted communitites.
Adds a changelog 2.0 entry for adding support for `stream_id`
parameter to the `mute-topic` endpoint. Also, adds Changes note
to the endpoint parameter description, and reorders/clarifies
that at least one (and only one) stream parameter must be provided
by the client and that the `string_id` parameter is preferred.
Fixes#11136.
Adds `create_web_public_stream_policy` to the `get-events` API
documentation for the `realm op:update` event.
Also, fixes changelog entries for feature levels 103 and 104,
which are related to the API documentation changes or fix an
error in references to the undocumented endpoint `PATCH /realm`.
This commit attempts to add the backend support by extending the
/json/bots/{bot_id}/ url support to accept the role field as a
parameter. This was previously already possible via
`/json/users/{user_id}`, so this change just simplifies client
implementation.
Adds `want_advertise_in_communities_directory` to the realm model
to track organizations that give permission to be listed on such
a site / directory on zulip.com.
Adds a checkbox to the organization profile admin for
organizations to give permission to be advertised in the
Zulip communities directory.
Adds a help center article about the Zulip communities directory
and uses a shared intro documentation file to create sections in
the articles on creating an organization profile and moderating
open organizations.

The changes in the last few commits changed the semantics of the
organization default language to no longer be the primary source of
information for a user's language when creating a new account.
Here, we change the settings UI and /help/ documentation to reflect
this.
To provide a smoother experience of accessing a web public stream,
we don't ask user to login unless user directly requests a
`/login` URL.
Fixes#21690.

Adds a drop-down menu for updating the organization type in the
`organization_profile_admin` page. Implements front end for
this setting to work / update like other organization profile,
notification and permissions settings.
One special note about this dropdown is that the listed options
should change once an organization has successfully set a type
other than 'unspecified' in the database. To accomplish this
the initial settings overlay build checks the realm_org_type
value in the page_params to select the correct options list,
and when the dropdown value is reset, either for update events
or for discarding changes, the page_params value is again used
to check for whether the 'unspecified' value should be present
as an option in the dropdown menu.
Adds basic node test for the `server_events_dispatch`.
Also adds a new help center documentation article for this
organization setting that is linked to in the UI.
Fixes#21692.
`org_type` already exists as a field in the Realm model and is
used when organizations are created / updated in Zulip Cloud,
via the `/analytics/support` view.
Extends the `PATCH /realm` view to be able update `org_type` as
other realm / organization settings are updated, but using the
special log / action that was created for the analytics view.
Adds a field to the `realm op: update` / `realm op: update_dict`
events, which also means an event is now sent when and if the
`org_type` is updated via the analytics view. This is similar
to how updates to an organization's `plan_type` trigger events.
Adds `realm_org_type` as a realm setting fetched from the
`POST /register` endpoint.
This commit adds 'GET /user_groups/{user_group_id}/members'
endpoint to get members of a user group. "direct_member_only"
parameter can be passed as True to the endpoint to get only
direct members of the user group and not the members of
subgroup.
This commit adds 'GET /user_groups/{id}/members/{id}' endpoint to check
whether a user is member of a group.
This commit also adds for_read parameter to access_user_group_by_id,
which if passed as True will provide access to read user group even
if it a system group or if non-admin acting user is not part of the
group.
This commit also adds 'subgroups' field to the user_group present
in the event sent on creating a user group. We do not allow passing
the subgroups while creating a user group as of this commit, but added
the field in the event object to pass tests.
This commit changes the invite API to accept invitation
expiration time in minutes since we are going to add a
custom option in further commits which would allow a user
to set expiration time in minutes, hours and weeks as well.
Added a setting to the bottom of Settings > Display settings > Theme section
to display the reacting users on a message when numnber of reactions are
small.
This is a preparatory commit for #20980.
Adds and updates changelog documentation for
`POST /users/me/status` feature level 86 addition
of new emoji parameters.
Makes description text for emoji `reaction_type` consistent
throughout API documentation and also adds better description
of the `unicode_emoji` namespace.
Redirects emoji field links in `user_status` event to go to
the parameters in `/update-status` endpoint, which was not a
documented endpoint when the event documentation was created.
e6e6010, 41ddf29 and other commits migrating components to Micromodal
have removed references to these divs. Did a global search and
removed these divs.
Adds a non-endpoint specific page to the API documentation about
organization-level roles and permissions for users in order to
highlight important and useful information for clients and API
users.
Also, adds links to new documentation page in related areas
of the API documentation.
`disable-message-edit-history`: Remove text about EDITED label
and link to `view-a-messages-edit-history` instead.
`edit-or-delete-a-message`: Reformat 'EDITED' and '(deleted)'
to be bold instead of using backticks. Make link to view
edit history clearer.
Note that the text used in the `OpenGraphTest` in
`test_middleware.py` had to be updated for the changes to
`disable-message-edit-history`.
Adds a note about auto-notification messages that are sent when
these general settings are changed for a stream: name, description,
access and posting permissions, and message retention.
Our original implementation of moving muted topic records when a topic
is moved took a shortcut of treating all change_later usage as
something with intent to move the whole topic.
This works OK when moving the whole topic via this interface, but not
when moving a last off-topic message in the topic.
Address this by changing the rule to match the existing
moved_all_visible_messages variable.
Updates `/for/` pages for the new translated language count, 23.
Also, updates any links to help center documentation that have
been changed.
Finally, updates `/for/events` text for a potentially confusing
English idiom.
Updates the list of actions and buttons referenced in the help
center documentation for viewing images with lightbox.
Also, makes some minor corrections to the keyboard shortcut note.
Fixes#21527.
Adds tab for web-public streams in documentation for setting
who can create new streams, as well as some text about why
this is limited to certain roles.
Removes list of actions that can be restricted to full members
due to maintainability concerns for that type of list in the
documentation and replaces it with a short descriptive text
explaining that many settings in Zulip support this restriction.
Updates various articles related to editing messages (settings,
edit history, etc) for changes in UI, adding undocumented
settings, and cleaning/linking documentation text and headers.
- `user-groups`: Add warning for removing yourself.
- `restrict-wildcard-mentions`: Updated setting name to match UI.
- `format-your-message-with-markdown`: In-app help is now an icon.
- `web-public-streams`: Add link to Zulip's Rules of Use.
Moves descriptions of notification and subsetting options
when moving content out of the instructions tab blocks
and into descriptive text.
Adds documentation for editing a topic via the message
recipient bar.
Also cleans up a few changes to UI interactions.

Extends the linking to Zulip documentation to cover:
- Getting URLs to messages via the message timestamp.
- Getting links to topics via the three-dots menu.
- Getting links to streams via right-click context menu.
Creates a new tabbed section for using the browser
address bar to copy URLs.
Removes reference to icon (previously a magnifying glass) in
text for filtering streams and replaces it with direction
for clicking on the STREAMS header in the left sidebar.
Uses new `select-stream-view-general.md` for instructions.
Also, clarifies location of button/icon as well as the
header for the privacy setting in the update modal.
Finally, updates save instruction to use `save-changes.md`.
Uses new `select-stream-view-general.md` for instructions.
Also, updates description to include web-public streams with link
to documentation about them, and clarifies location of button/icon
as well as the header for the privacy setting in the update modal.
Finally, updates save instruction to use `save-changes.md` and
renumbers instructions list to only use '1'.
Uses new `select-stream-view-personal` for instructions.
Also, moves one sentence notes to be under header vs tab block,
and updates numbers used in instruction list to all be '1',
and clarifies text about notifications table in general personal
setting.
Uses new `select-stream-view-general.md` for instructions.
Also, updates text for locating the button/icon and uses
the `save-changes.md` to correct the final instruction/step.
Uses new `select-stream-view-personal.md` for instructions.
Also, clarifies where the checkbox is located (header) and
updates instruction to use 'toggle' vs 'click' for checkbox.
Uses new `select-stream-view-general.md` in instructions.
Also, moves admin warning to top of the article and updates
description text for clarity (instead of 'apps', specify
which apps have the description in the stream view).
Adds three markdown documents in to be used for help center
articles that have instructions that refer to actions in
the 3 new tabs in the 'Subscribed/All streams' view:
- General: stream name, description and permissions changes.
- Personal: personal stream settings, such as color, changes.
- Subscribers: adding or removing users from streams.

This commit adds the backend functionality to
mark messages as unread through update_message_flags
with `unread` flag and `remove` operation.
We also manage incoming events in the webapp.
Tweaked by tabbott to simplify the implementation and add an API
feature level update to the documentation.
This commit was originally drafted by showell, and showell
also finalized the changes. Many thanks to Suyash here for
the main work here, which was to get all the tests and
documentation work moving forward.
Adds documentation for admins to manage users via the user profile
modal for these actions:
- Deactivating a user
- Changing a user's role
- Changing a user's name
Creates two new tab sections because we still want to document
the ability to do these actions through the users section in
the organizational settings modal.
Also cleans up some text in the help center article for changing
a user's role.
Fixes#21318.
Fixes#21415.
Cleans up the list of actions that can be restricted via settings
for new members. Previously, there were a number of entries in the
list that began with 'Restricting' and not the action that was
being set.
Adds content on user group permissions / management to the general
help center article for user groups (`/help/user-groups`) and
removes the then redundant `/help/restrict-user-group-management`
article.
Redirects links in help center and api documentation from deleted
article to the new configure user group settings section of
`/help/user-groups`.
Fixes#21383.
Extends existing documentation about user status to cover
both potential parts of a status: emojis and messages.
Also, adds a link in the `/help/web-public-streams` article
where user status is referenced.
Fixes#21369.
Adds a section to the typing notifications documentation about
how to disable them in as a personal privacy setting.
Extended by tabbott to explain the setting in more detail.
Fixes#21381.
As the different settings are described in the help center doc
for creating a new stream, we need to update the final setting
name from 'People to add' to the new 'Choose subscribers' that
is in the UI.
Also, updates that setting description to include adding users
via user groups or the new add all users option.
Extends the documentation on unsubscribing users from streams to
include an alternate method via the user's full profile, which
is useful for cases where admins may need to unsubscribe a single
user from multiple streams.
Fixes#21379.
Previously, this URL just returned the `raw_content` field. It seems
cleanest to just make it a single-message variant of GET /messages,
deprecating the only format.
The header was more confusing than helpful, and we
want the create-stream UI to be less cluttered.
We don't really need the help-center text here, since
we already have ? icons next to the relevant headings
for the sub-sections.
We kill off some CSS, but we won't kill off stream-title
until the big upcoming changes for stream pills.
Since we've changed the database to contain these new fields, we just
need to stop dropping them in the API code.
This also changes the public API to match the database format again
by removing `prev_subject` from edit history API.
Adds an API changelog feature update for the renamed `prev_subject`
field (to `prev_topic`) and new fields (`topic` and `stream`)
in the message `edit_history`.
Also, documents said `edit_history` in the `MessagesBase` schema
in the api documentation, which is used by the `/get-messages`,
`/get-events` and `/zulip-outgoing-webhooks` endpoints.
Fixes#21076.

The database value for expiry_date is None for the invite
that will never expire and the clients send -1 as value
in the API similar to the message retention setting.
Also, when passing invite_expire_in_days as an argument
in various functions, invite_expire_in_days is passed as
-1 for "Never expires" option since invite_expire_in_days
is an optional argument in some functions and thus we cannot
pass "None" value.
Adds a section about the Markdown feature to auto-link to
existing streams and topics in a Zulip message.
Also, does a little reformatting of existing text/tabs and
adds a related links section to the page.
Fixes#21085.

Adds `realm_web_public_access_enabled` as a realm-specific server
setting potentially returned by the `/get-server-settings` endpoint
so that clients that support browsing of web-public stream content
without an account can generate a login page that supports that
type of access.
Notifies user when messages are not being marked as read through a
banner that lets them mark all messages in the narrow as read. Note
that the banner is only displayed if the user's actions, like
scrolling, would've actually marked the messages as read.
This avoids distracting the user when viewing a thread they've already
read.
tabbott has verified that if new messages come in, the banner will reappear.
Fixes: #18768.
The previous explanation of generic bots was inaccurate.
This page needs a lot more cleanup, but this at least fixes the
clearest inaccuracies.
Fixes#19978.
Previously, users found it annoying that the automated "Resolve topic"
notifications triggered an unread for everyone in the stream; this
discouraged some users from using the feature on older threads for
fear of being annoying. We change this to a better default, of only
users who participated in the topic (via either messages or reactions)
being eligible for the new message being unread.
We will likely want to create global and stream-level notifications
settings to control this behavior as a follow-up -- some users, like
me, might prefer the simpler "Always unread" behavior in some streams.
Note that the automated notifications that a topic was resolved will
still result in the topic being moved to the top of the left sidebar.
This would be somewhat difficult to change, since the left sidebar
algorithm just looks at the highest message ID in the topic.
Fixes#19709.

Makes `edit_timestamp` and `user_id` required fields for all
`update_message` events.
Adds `rendering_only` as another required field to signal if
events are only updating the rendered content of the message,
which is currently the case for adding inline url previews.
Updates `test_event.py` so that `do_update_message` and
`do_update_embedded_data` refer to the same testing schema
for `update_message` events, and therefore reflect the same
required fields for the `update_message` event.
The OpenAPI definition for `update_message` events is also
updated to reflect the required field and descriptions of
various properties are updated for the addition of the
`rendering_only` property.
Moves details about the rate limit error object and handling to
the OpenAPI documentation description for that common error.
Previously, this information was on the general rest error
handling documentation page without clear connection to the
specific rate limit error.
Fixes a typo in the changelog (feature 36) for that same error
and also fixes a misplaced colon in the description of the error
for missing request parameters.
There was a bug where information overlay was not closing on clicking
"x" when some text was selected. This was due to document.getSelection().type
returning "Range" and we do not close the modal in that case as per the code
added in 081d74141b.
As the "x" icon was button, the document.getSelection().type was
still returning "Range" for the text selected, but when the "x"
icon is inside a span, as in settings overlay, clicking on "x"
deselects the already selected text and selection type is not
"Range" and thus modal is closed.
This commit also improves the vertical alignment of "x".
Fixes#20645.

The old name was confusing, since the contents
of the div aren't just a table, and we have
smaller elements that actually do list a bunch
of subscriptions in tabular format.
We now serialize still_url as None for non-animated emojis,
instead of omitting the field. The webapp does proper checks
for falsiness here. The mobile app does not yet use the field
(to my knowledge).
We bump the API version here. More discussion here:

Updates the `update_message` event type to always include a `stream_id`
field when the message being edited is a stream message. This change
aligns with the current definition of the `\get-events` endpoint
in the OpenAPI documentation.
This replaces the TERMS_OF_SERVICE and PRIVACY_POLICY settings with
just a POLICIES_DIRECTORY setting, in order to support settings (like
Zulip Cloud) where there's more policies than just those two.
With minor changes by Eeshan Garg.
We do s/TOS/TERMS_OF_SERVICE/ on the name, and while we're at it,
remove the assumed zerver/ namespace for the template, which isn't
correct -- Zulip Cloud related content should be in the corporate/
directory.
We recently changed /developer-community to /development-community.
Now that this change is in production, we can also migrate the
external links in our ReadTheDocs documentation.
Removed existing empty narrow divs from app/home.html and created

I remove some spurious whitespace and a stray period
in zephyr-mirror, and then for all three I try to
line-wrap/indent in a way that's nicer for humans
and parsers to read.
Migrates the `/update-subscription-settings` api endpoint to the
`ignored_parameters_unsupported` model, which is also currently used
by `/update-settings` and `update-realm-user-settings-defaults`.
This change is a step towards preparing for an eventual migration to
have all endpoints return an `ignored_parameters_unsupported` block.
Previously the `/update-subscription-settings` endpoint returned a
copy of the data object sent in the request.
Fixes#15307.
I rewrote most of tools/lib/pretty-printer.py, which
was fairly easy due to being able to crib some
important details from the previous implementation.
The main motivation for the rewrite was that we weren't
handling else/elif blocks correctly, and it was difficult
to modify the previous code. The else/elif shortcomings
were somewhat historical in nature--the original parser
didn't recognize them (since they weren't in any Zulip
templates at the time), and then the pretty printer was
mostly able to hack around that due to the "nudge"
strategy. Eventually the nudge strategy became too
brittle.
The "nudge" strategy was that we would mostly trust
the existing templates, and we would just nudge over
some lines in cases of obviously faulty indentation.
Now we are bit more opinionated and rigorous, and
we basically set the indentation explicitly for any
line that is not in a code/script block. This leads
to this diff touching several templates for mostly
minor fix-ups.
We aren't completely opinionated, as we respect the
author's line wrapping decisions in many cases, and
we also allow authors not to indent blocks within
the template language's block constructs.
In cases where an opening tag is so long that we stretch
it to 2+ lines of code, we should try to use block-style
formatting in the template code.
Unfortunately, we have lots of legacy code that violates
this concept, so this is a timid fix.
There are also legit use cases like textarea where we
probably need to keep the ugly template syntax for things
to render properly.
We disallow this HTML:
junk-text-before-open-tag<p>
This is a paragraph.
</p>
We rarely see the above mistake, but we want to eliminate
the possibility to be somewhat rigorous, and so that we
can eliminate a pretty-printer mis-feature.
As noted in the /help/ docs, this feature isn't fully implemented yet.
However, it's useful to merge this documentation, which explains how the
feature will work, to help make sure we've thought through all the details
around how this feature should work and be presented to users as we
plan to final changes to implement it.

This change is intended to reduce confusion between zulip-bot-shell
(test bots interactively without a server) and the zulip/zulip-terminal
project and its associated command (zulip-term).
This commit renames "Automatic" option in color scheme setting
dropdown to "Sync with compute". We do not change any variables
used in code just the text in the dropdown visible to user.
Fixes part of #20228.
We restrict access of messages from web public streams if
anonymous login is disabled via `enable_spectator_access`.
Display of `Anonymous login` button is now controlled by
the value of `enable_spectator_access`.
Admins can toggle `enable_spectator_access` via org settings in UI.
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.

We had an incident where someone didn't notice for a week that they'd
accidentally enabled a 30-day message retention policy, and thus we
were unable to restore the deleted the content.
After some review of what other products do (E.g. Dropbox preserves
things in a restoreable state for 30 days) we're adjusting this
setting's default value to be substantially longer, to give more time
for users to notice their mistake and correct it before data is
irrevocably deleted.
