Fix the .get_suggestions and .get_suggestions_legacy
to correctly handle search terms in group PM and treat
it as search term by not concatenating it at end of pm-with
email list operand.
We reuse the link regexes we use elsewhere inn markdown
for parsing links in topic names and add a button to open
them in new tabs similar to our behavior with linkifiers
in topic names.
Fixes#12391.
Modified heavily by punchagan to correctly handle narrowing to huddles, and
for `group-pm-with` narrows. Also, fixed broken tests in the original PR.
Closes#5876
Right now we have buttons for "New conversation" and "New private message"
in different views, but both buttons do the same thing.
The current state is confusing for new users, since there is already a lot
of terminology one needs to learn in order to understand the Zulip
conversation model. It's very plausible a user would think a "conversation"
is something different from a "private message" or a "topic".
With the help of `check_property_changed` function now we collect the data
whose values are changed from the current one. Currently this optimizes
only for those elements whose values are collected by
`populate_data_for_request` function i.e. it doesn't optimize data
collected by `get_complete_data_for_subsection`.
This is a preliminary commit which refactors `populate_data_for_request`
function, now this function traverse on all "property elements" of a given
subsection, but get the data only of those properties which have
`setting-widget-type` data attribute. Therefore, it doesn't change the
functionality of this function and overall changes don't make any
difference. In upcoming commits, we're going to use `input_elem` as an
argument to `check_property_changed` function, so that only those elements
whose values are changed are sent to the backend.
This commit disables "Mobile notifications" if `push_notifications` are not
enabled. It also adds a tooltip explaining why this is disabled.
Fixes#12208
Add `name` attribute to stream settings `input` elements
and change `id` attribute corresponding to name.
`name` attribute stores value of settings name which is
stored in frontend data sets.
Some search queries always return empty because of how we handle search,
this adds text that ensures users trying bad searches realize that they
are doing so.
This fixes an issue where one could end up with a `(` in the markdown
syntax for a link after copy-pasting this, which doesn't work in
markdown.
Fixes#12579.
Rename notification property `enable_stream_sounds` to
`enable_stream_audible_notifications` to match with other
notification property patterns.
Fixes part of #12304
Prior to this commit, we'd put up the green "Enable desktop
notifications" bar on page load AND the first time a desktop
notification worthy message was received, it would attempt to notify,
automatically triggering a browser permission popup (the same one as
clicking the green bar results in).
Now, desktop notifications are not attempted at all until the green
bar is clicked. Additionally Firefox and Webkit browser-specific
checks are made more uniform and done at the same point.

This tests was added to make sure we catch subtle bug related to
comparing new_recipient and current_recipient. When we changed the
recipient to use arrays instead of string to use new user IDs based
api we encoured this bug and out testing suite couldn't detect this.
A selector like `$('.elem1 .elem2:first')` selects the first descendant
with class name `.elem2` under `.elem1`. This is the same as saying
`$('.elem1 .elem2').first()`. See example here:
https://jsbin.com/bohehesari/edit?html,js,output
API changes:
* The behaviour of Date.toLocaleTimeString() reverts to pre 8.0.0,
this only affects automated tests. Lots of other API changes but
we didn't use any of those.
* The internal sorting algorithm changed which causes one of our own
compare function to miss coverage.
This adds a setting to control Zulip's default behavior of sorting to
bottom and graying out inactive streams. The previous logic is still
the default "automatic", but this gives users more control. See the
models.py comment for details.
Fixes#11524.
We have had a longtime bug where the state of pinned streams would not
update properly from the greyed out/inactive state to the active state
when a first message arrived to them.
After some discussion, we determined that likely the right fix for
this is to simply configure pinned streams to never be marked as
inactive; that's more in line with the intended user experience.
Fixes#8201.
Lightbox previews for youtube playlists use the "current" video in the playlist
for the preview. The open link for such previews is incorrectly set to the first
video alone, and not the playlist. This commit fixes the bug by linking to the
original URL for lightbox preview is being shown, instead of computing the URL.
This commit separates the `waiting_period_threshold` setting from
the `create_stream_policy` setting, adding a new setting that the user
can use to select a waiting period threshold.
Both the invite to stream policy and create stream policy now have
three options: admins only, members and admins, or members after
waiting period/admins.
In email hidden case (that is when `email_address_visibilty` is set to
everyone), for "non admins", this commit hides emails from:
- compose box user typeahead.
- PM user typeahead
In email hidden case, for admins, email is shown in user typeaheads.
In email hidden case (that is when `email_address_visibilty` is set to
everyone), for "non admins", this commit hides emails from:
- user popover
- custom profile popover
In email hidden case, for admins, email is shown in both user popovers and
custom profile popovers.
Along with this, we refactored settings_org.populate_auth_methods to use
HTML function after rendering all auth methods rows rather than appending
each row individually, which actually is a good practice.
Also in this commit, to compare `current_val` and `changed_val` in
`check_property_changed` function of the property
`realm_authentication_methods`, which are objects, and we found here
https://stackoverflow.com/a/1144249 that there is no easy way to do so. So
I followed this approach,
```js
JSON.stringify(obj1) === JSON.stringify(obj2)
```
but before converting them to string we want the same order of keys, so we
used `sort_object_by_key` to sort `current_val` by keys and
`get_auth_method_table_data` always return `changed_val` having keys
sorted.
Since these refactor were closely related we kept them as a single commit
here.
Fixes: #11954.
We now use a Proxy to wrap zjquery elements, so
that we can detect callers trying to invoke methods
(or access attributes) that do not exist. We try
to give useful error messages in those cases.
The main impact here is that we force lots of tests
to explicitly stub `length`.
Also, we can't do equality checks on zjquery
objects any more due to the proxy object, but the
easy workaround is to compare selectors. (This
is generally an unnecessary technique, anyway.)
The proxy wrapper is fairly straightforward, and
we just have a few special cases for things like
"inspect" that happen when you try to print out
objects.
With perfectScrollbar, we needed to call a function from JavaScript to
enable a scrollbar on a new element, but simplebar has a much simpler
default API one can do by using data-simplebar attributes in the HTML.
So we can delete all the scrollbar creation/deletion code.

This commit migrates the Subscription's notification fields from a
BooleanField to a NullBooleanField where a value of None means to
inherit the value from user's profile.
Also includes a migrations to set the corresponding settings to None
if they match the user profile's values. This migration helps us in
getting rid of the weird "Apply to all" widget that we offered on
subscription settings page.
The mobile apps can't handle None appearing as the stream-level
notification settings, so for backwards-compatibility we arrange to
only send True/False to the mobile apps by applying those defaults
server-side. We introduce a notification_settings_null value within a
client_capabilities structure that newer versions of the mobile apps
can use to request the new model.
This mobile compatibility code is pretty effectively tested by the
existing test_events tests for the subscriptions subsystem.
If MAX_FILE_UPLOAD_SIZE is set to 0, then UI elements like the upload
icon in the compose and message edit UI and "Attachments" menu in
"/#settings" are not displayed.
A different error message is also displayed if a user tries to drag and
drop or paste a file into the compose message box.
Fixes#12152.
This adds three bools to message_container object which calculate bools
where the "(EDITED)" label should appear:
* `edited_in_left_col` -- when label appears in left column.
* `edited_alongside_sender` -- when label appears alongside sender info.
* `edited_status_msg` -- when label appears for a "/me" message.
We use the new bools and remove the complicated if else statements
from the templates for the "(EDITED)" label.
This also allows us to add a unit test to verify the logic.
This commit renames the `create_stream_permission` field in the
templates to `create_stream_policy`, matching the field used in the
database model. This matches what `invite_to_stream_policy` does and
will be clearer when the `waiting_period_threshold` is split into its
own field.
This commit replaces the `create_stream_by_admins_only` setting with a
new `create_stream_policy` setting, which mirroring the structure of
the existing `invite_to_stream_policy`.
This is important preparation for migrating the waiting period feature
to be its own independent setting.
Fixes#12236.
Fixes#12251.
Previously when disabling name changes in server settings, instead
of realm settings, the name edit button did not get disabled.
Changing name resulted in a message stating `no changes made`.
Fixes#12132.
Realm setting to disable avatar changes is already present.
The `AVATAR_CHANGES_DISABLED` setting now follows the same
2-setting model as `NAME_CHANGES_DISABLED`.
This is useful when syncing avatars from an integrated LDAP/active
directory.
The upload avatar and delete avatar buttons are hidden if avatar
changes are disabled and the user is a non-admin.
If the user has a gravatar set, then the user will not be able to
upload an image as their avatar if avatar changes are disabled.
Part of #12132.
This commit creates a new organization setting that determines whether
a user can invite other users to streams. Previously this was linked
to the waiting period threshold, but this was both not documented and
overly limiting.
With significant tweaks by tabbott to change the database model to not
involve two threshhold fields, edit the tests, etc.
This requires follow-up work to make the create stream policy setting
work how this code implies it should.
Fixes#12042.
In handlebars and settings_org.js, the subsection in which
`realm_message_retention_days` property lies doesn't agree, and this wasn't
observed for a long time as it's disabled, still to make things right, in
this commit we have moved the logic which handles the collection of data
from `other_permission` to `other_settings` as it makes more sense there.
This is a small patch to fix the error message an admin would receive if
they tried to change bot info and owner from the "bots" setting of the
organization settings panel.
The alphabetic sorting of lists in the User/Organization settings was
changed in fa0a5ec to be case insensitive.
This commit makes changes to the list_render.js test to verify that the
sorting of these lists is indeed case insensitive.
We no longer store handlers as an array of functions,
and instead we assume that code will only ever set up
one handler per sel/event or sel/event/child. This is
almost always a sane policy for the app itself.
We also try to improve error handling when devs write
incorrect tests.
The only tests that required changes here are the
activity tests, which were a little careless about how
data got reset between tests.
Apparently, our use of JavaScript string `.replace()` here was buggy,
because replace() has several special escape sequences starting with
`$` if they appear in the replacement content string. We can work
around this through something of a hack, which is to pass a function
as the second argument to replace, which seems cleaner than replacing
all $s with $$s.
Thanks to Shreya for the report.
Now that we have a scroll container for the PM list,
it doesn't make much sense to limit the number to
five.
We may resurrect this feature if "more conversations"
actually fetches more conversations, but it doesn't
currently.
We also may soon make it easy to limit PMs to just
unread messages, which will make the max-5 feature
perhaps less necessary, and we don't want to make
the UI overly complicated.
This is the follow-up of PR #10267.
Here, we add typeahead for slash commands `/me` and `/poll` in compose box.
The slash typeahead will open only when `/` is the first character and all
slash commands will be displayed when one types `/`, as this helps a lot in
discoverability. This also adds a description of what the slash command
does in the typeahead.
When new PMs came in, we would do a little
animation to show you the incoming message.
Unfortunately, it was broken and would animate
too many things. (The code looks at a single
var to see if PM counts changed, but there are
actually mulitple PM counts. We could fix that,
but we decided that this feature just isn't
worth the complexity.)
We still animate incoming mentions.
Fixes#11868.
This makes the "more topics" option which appears below the list of
known topics in the left sidebar appear only when it's possible there
are actually more topics to be displayed. Two specific cases it
resolves completely include:
* Newly created realms; this widget was a common source of confusion
for new organization administrators.
* Newly created streams.
There are still some corner cases this doesn't handle, e.g. if you
just joined a private stream with protected history, but there isn't
as easy a fix for those.
Essentially rewritten by tabbott to fix code duplication and comment
extensively.
Fixes#10265.
As a follow up of commit (bf1c9420df), this
commit removes the `build_realm_day_mode_logo_widget` and
`build_realm_night_mode_logo_widget` function , and changes
`build_realm_logo_widget` to take single argument `is_night` and depending
on this argument, corresponding `day mode` or `night_mode` widget is
handled.
This changes the "new private message" button to be instead "new
conversation" when looking at PMs, to avoid confusion that the button
was the right thing to do to reply to the current private message
conversation.
Fixes#11679.
Even though there are only ever zero or one active
topic widgets in our current sidebar, it's almost the
same amount of code to just manage them with a Dict.
Also, we can more easily do possible future features
like setting streams to be always-open.
This moves the configuration of widget type from settings_org to instead
live in respective HTML templates, via `data-widget-setting-type` and we
also remove `get_subsection_property_types` and refactor function
`populate_data_for_request` accordingly.
Fixes: #11708.
This fixes the bug where the `Saved` state button faded out almost
instantly (that is actually 300 ms) and `Discard` button fades out
along with `Saved` state button; the key problem here was that the
setTimeout intended to fade was actually delaying the transition from
"saving" to "saved".
Now, first of all, we use `setTimeOut` function to fadeout elements giving
fadeout_delay time as `800 ms` and we hide discard button during `saving`
state. Also, when `Discard` button is selected, `Save changes` and `Dicard`
fade out simultaneously.
Fixes: #11737.
If you click on the avatar, we now show the menu
right next to the avatar. The current behavior
is particularly funny for long names. (I confirmed
this with Rishi.)
Adds possibility for users to use | as an OR-operator (besides ,)
when searching for other users.
This is a thing reasonable folks might try, and | in the thing to
search for isn't a realisitic possibility, so there's no real downside
to adding this.
Fixes#4109.
In this commit, I've added a feature to unstar all the starred
messages. This is useful, e.g., for folks who are using starred
messages to keep track of things they should come back when next at
their desktop.
The event flow is the standard one for a feature with a confirmation modal:
(1) User clicks on unstar all messages.
(2) We display a confirmation modal; if the user confirms, we send a
request to the backend to clear all starred messages.
(3) The events system sends that UI update back to us, removing the
stars from the UI.
Fixes#11401.
This commit deduplicates the code for `build_realm_logo_widget` and
`build_realm_night_logo_widget`. It deduplicates the common code for
`build_realm_day_mode_logo_widget` & `build_realm_night_mode_logo_widget`
into tthe function `build_realm_logo_widget`.
Add a background highlight to vote count button if currently
logged in user votes on that option.
Tweaked by tabbott to use better variable names and Rishi for better
styling.
This is a pure data function, so it shouldn't be in popovers.js file
(Steve Howell added test coverage here, and tabbott removed an
accidental functional change.)
The correct behavior here is that we want to ensure there is
whitespace in between the syntax being added and the content on either
side. Our smart_insert logic handled this for the cases that were
common with inserting emoji (etc.), but didn't handle the more complex
cases with "quote and reply".
Fixes#11702.
This new helper allows us to do the same operation
on every message in our message_store. We will
use this in a future commit to clear the `is_tall`
flags on all messages, after a resize.
We should be somewhat cautious about using this,
but simple operations should be really fast, even
if you have lots of messages in the store.
Previously, if you were in the process of editing the last message in
a narrow and a new message came in, we'd rerender that second-to-last
message, causing your editing widget to lose focus (and thus the next
few keys you typed to be interpreted as keyboard shortcuts, which
had a good chance of resulting in your navigating somewhere random).
This rerendering was essentially unnecessary; the only change to state
going into the rendering process was the next_is_same_sender CSS class
being toggled on the messagebox in the message. So, at most, we
should have been just toggling that CSS class (and this commit makes
us do precisely that).
It seems like we could further improve this code by just removing the
next_is_same_sender CSS class entirely and removing this block, but
I'm leaving that for follow-up work.
Fixes#11656.
This fixes an issue where closing stream search was not working if
user had not entered a search term and tried to close the search box
by clicking on the close icon; the problem was that we'd end up
re-opening the widget immediately after through event propagation.
Fixes: #11636.
Also adds tests to ensure that we do not accidentally overwrite
the 'beginning' variable that contains the message content upto
that point. These should prevent similar errors in the future.
The bug was added in 8119258c4d.
The bug here was that when we rerendered messages following local echo
through the echo.process_from_server code path, the eventual call to
_rerender_header() made the implicit assumption that all messages in a
message group had the same date. As a result, it created a totally
new/fake message group and called the rendering logic on that group
without calling the functions for setting up recipient row dates,
which would always result in no recipient bar date being added. This
bug was latent/invisible before, because when introduced, the locally
echoed messages were always being added to a recipient group from
today, where the recipient bar's date area was by default empty anyway.
This latent bug was revealed when we modified the structure of the app
to do date dividers between individual messages within a message
group, rather than strictly between message groups.
For consistency, we should keep all the code that works with
@mentions in markdown.js. In this case, message_list_view was
rewriting the contents of the mentions in cases where users'
names had been changed since we rendered their mention.
This change should help people discover to distinguish
silent mentions in text as a part of Zulip syntax while
differentiating them from regular mentions.
To test formatting we want a hard coded date, so we
can verify the date arithmetic with stable dates.
To make the test less brittle, we disable the
feature to remove old drafts.
This was an emergency fix. We should probably just
remove the last N drafts instead of having the 30-day
limit. Or we should have a better way to stub the cutoff
date.
This is mostly adding markup, calling some convenient
functions in buddy_data.js, and adjusting CSS.
To make the circles update dynamically, I mostly
orchestrate this though activity.js for now. It's
possible we'll want to adjust that eventually to
happen through something like a `presence_events`
dispatcher, but that's essentially what
a good part of `activity.js` does now.
We now have a function get_user_circle_class
that returns one of these values:
"user_circle_green"
"user_circle_orange"
"user_circle_empty"
And we put that in the templates.
And then CSS renders the circle of the appropriate
color.
The unit tests now explicitly capture whether
we are rendering the correct kind of circle.
This fixes a longstanding UI issue when you have way too many recent
private message conversations, as you can now scroll down the list to
find what you're looking for.
Fixes#5384.
This removes the left border extending the stream label from the
recipient bar in from the drafts in drafts modal. Those borders are
important in the message feed for containing several messages, but
here we're only ever going to show individual drafts, and this change
avoids potential color clashes with the blue box surrounding the
recipient blocks.
Show "sent to different narrow" notification and other such notification by
notifications.notify_local_mixes for non locally echoed message sent by
current client.
With significant new comments added by tabbott.
Fixes: #11488.
We swallow the error if our python_to_js_filter code is
unable to parse some python regex properly. This ensures
that the web app stays responsive.
We would fail to show an accurate local echo for these
regexes, however, the backend would act as the final
authority for handling the realm pattern conversion.
Since on replacing the first 'P<>' group, we remove this text from
the string, we have to make the RegExp start looking from index 0
again to properly convert later 'P<>' groups to JS regex syntax.
We want the search widget, when visible, to be
outside the scroll container for the stream list.
One obvious use case is if you start scrolling, and
then realize it might be less effort to search.
Also, for user search, it already worked this way.
We have to add a couple resizing hooks here, but
it's not necessary to change the actual resize
calculation, since we move the section inside
of #streams_header, which is already accounted
for.
The only markup change here is to add
a `stream_search_section` class. I don't
know why we use `notdisplayed` here instead of
jQuery, or what `input-append` is for, but I
considered them outside the scope of this change.
We can also remove some crufty CSS that was
compensating for it being inside the container.
This adds date dividers within a single message group when the only
reason we had previously been splitting apart two message groups is a
change of date. The overall effect is a cleaner message list user
experience.
The downside of this change would be that the recipient bars no longer
will always show a new date for date changes; to fix that, we rewrite
how the floating recipient bars both set the date field on the
floating recipient bar itself, as well as ensure that non-floating
recipient bars don't show duplicate dates.
In a future design update where we modify how message recipient bars
look, we may very well be able to simplify this logic by removing some
of the dynamic nature of the recipient bar calculations. But this is
a good implementation of what remains.
Tweaked significantly by tabbott from Steve Howell's original, both to
extract these changes from a larger PR as well as to modify the
first_visible_message logic to handle some tricky corner cases.
Fixes#10171.
Use the results of commit #73d26c8 to remove the method
`render_stream_description` in static/js/stream_data.js and instead
use the rendered_description attribute now being sent by the backend.
This will be a valuable optimization and a step towards removing the
need for the marked.js markdown parser and speeding up the client end.
In small screen sizes, when the user presses shortcut `w` to search
for another user, the hide_all function calls in the search code path
would hide the right sidebar, immediately after opening it, making the
hotkey basically unusable.
We fix this by extracting a separate hide method that hides all true
popovers, but not the user list sidebar.
Fixes#11463.
This code will correctly add video call link to the message
textarea based on whether 'Add video call' was selected from
message composition form or message edit form.
The implementation was semi-rewritten by tabbott to remove an
unnecessary global variable, with fixes for the unit tests from
showell.
Fixes#11188.
This is primarily a feature for onboarding, where an organization
administrator might send a bunch of random test messages as part of
joining, but then want a pristine organization when their users later
join.
But it can theoretically be used for other use cases (e.g. for
moderation or removing threads that are problematic in some way).
Tweaked by tabbott to handle corner cases with
is_history_public_to_subscribers.
Fixes#10912.
This function unlike `invite_streams()` returns an array of objects having
various info (name, stream_id, invite_only, default_stream) related to
streams rather than an array of names of streams.
We now compute the class that drives the tiny
green/orange/empty dot in the user popover using
the same logic as the buddy list.
This was broken in the early implementation of
set/clear-away, but it was never released.
Fixes#11413
This makes it possible to mention a user with a name like Gaël that
contains diacritics by typing e.g. "Gael", significantly reducing the
need to use a special keyboard to mention other users.
Fixes#11183.
The following elements in the top left corner
are major components of our app:
All messages
Private messages
Starred messages
Mentions
We can now find them directly:
$('.top_left_all_messages')
$('.top_left_private_messages')
$('.top_left_starred_messages')
$('.top_left_mentions')
Before this, we had to build up complicated selectors
like below:
exports.get_global_filter_li = function (filter_name) {
var selector = "#global_filters li[data-name='"
+ filter_name + "']";
return $(selector);
};
I don't think any newbie would know to grep for "global_filter",
and I've seen a PR where somebody added specific markup here
to "Private messages" because they couldn't grok the old scheme.
Another thing to note is that we still have a "home-link"
class for "All messages", which overlapped with portico
code that had the same name. (There were some inaccurate
comments in the code relating to the tab bar, but we don't
actually have a way to click to the home view in the tab
bar any more.) I'll eliminate that cruft in another commit.
For this commit the four elements still have the
"global-filter" class, since there's some benefit to being
able to style them all as a group, although we should give
it a nicer name in a subsequent commit.
Most of this PR is basic search/replace, but I did add a
two-line helper: `top_left_corner.update_starred_count`
We had initially designed the poll widget like a blog
post with comments beneath it but it makes more sense
to think of it as just a simple poll with options.
Instead of custom stubs, we now use zjquery. We also
limit a couple checks to the first call to
`show_empty_narrow_messages`, since it's the same
logic every time.
When you hover over a user that has set a user
status, we now show something like "out to lunch."
You can test this in the console by doing:
user_status.server_update({status_text: 'out to lunch'})
And then hover over your name in the buddy list.
The stubs here were kind of unnecessary, as the
real people module is lightweight and data setup
is pretty easy.
In passing I also removed the unnecessary `sed`
abbreviation.
The name `insert_user_into_list` is sort of misleading,
since we are often just redrawing the user's existing
item in the buddy list.
I chose `redraw_user` over `update_user` to emphasize
that we're just going to redraw it with whatever data
has been updated by the callers.
This adds a setting under "Notification" section of
"Organization settings" tab, which enables Organization administrator to
control whether the missed message emails include the message content or
not.
Fixes: #11123.
The commit f863a9b567 had modified
jquery.filedrop's paste method to exit early if any of the items in the
clipboardData is of the string kind. The early exit was added to prevent pasting
an image thumbnail for text copied from software like MS Word, instead of
pasting the actual copied text content. When copying an image in a (modern?)
Browser, though, the clipboard seems to contain a html `img` tag item, along
with the actual image file. This resulted in pastes being broken.
This commit modifies the condition checked for the early exit. We now actually
look at the html content in the clipboard to see if it is an `img` tag, in which
case we upload the image, instead of exiting early.
Closes#7130.
User was able to click delete button multiple time which could cause
multiple delete requests. This commit disables and hides the delete
message button after the first click and shows a spinner until http
the delete request responds.
Also adds a casperjs test to ensure that spinner becomes visible and
delete button becomes invisible after clicking on delete button for
first time and hides spinner and show delete buttton when message is
deleted.
Fixes: #11219.
This commit takes away the ability for non-admin members to create
streams where only admins can post messages by hiding the option from
them.
Fixes#11290.
You can now pass in an info field with a value
like "out to lunch" to the /users/me/status,
and the server will include that in its outbound
events.
The semantics here are that both "away" and
"status_text" have to have defined values in order
to cause changes. You can omit the keys or
pass in None when values don't change.
The way you clear info is to pass the empty
string.
We also change page_params to have a dictionary
called "user_status" instead of a set of user
ids. This requires a few small changes on the
frontend. (We will add "status_text" support in
subsequent commits; the changes here just keep
the "away" feature working correctly.)
We had a bug where if you started typing a message
and then used quote/reply (after the fact), we
would overwrite the user's original message.
The bug was kind of subtle--the internal call
to "respond" to the message would select the message
text, and then `smart_insert` would replace the
selection, unless it was Firefox.
Note that we now also allow you to cross-post
replies, which is a plausible scenario, although
possibly unintentional at times, too. I'm erring
on the side of giving the user control here, but
I'll add a warning in the next commit. Our compose
fade feature should also prevent unintentional
mixes here, too.
NOTE: If you revert this commit, you want to revert
the immediately prior commit as well. The history
is that Ishan made some improvements to the widget,
but there were some minor bugs. I decided not
to squash the commits together so that the git
history is clear who did what. (In particular, I
want questions about the JS code to come to me if
somebody does `git blame`.)
Anyway...
This is a fairly significant rewrite of the polling
widget, where I clean up the overall structure of
the code (including things from before the prior
fix) and try to polish the prior commit a bit as
well.
There are a few new features:
* We tell "other" users to wait for the poll
to start (if there's no question yet).
* We tip the author to say "/poll foo" (as
needed).
* We add edit controls for the question.
* We don't allow new choices until there's
a question.
On the backend, we extend the BlockQuoteProcessor's clean function that
just removes '>' from the start of each line to convert each mention to
have the silent mention syntax, before UserMentionPattern is invoked.
The frontend, however, has an edge case where if you are mentioned in
some message and you quote it while having mentioned yourself above
the quoted message, you wouldn't see the red highlight till we get the
final rendered message from the backend.
This is such a subtle glitch that it's likely not worth worrying about.
Fixes#8025.
These mentions look like regular mentions except they do not
trigger any notification for the person mentioned. These are
primarily to be used when you make a bot take an action and
the bot mentions you, or when you quote a message that mentions
you.
Fixes#11221.
AFAIK I should this never fail, hence the blueslip.error line. But it
is failing in practice when rendering user groups after looking them
up by ID, and the error handling should definitely be softer.
In between releases, the following commit introduced
a bug where we agressively scroll to the top every
place we call `ui.update_scrollbar`:
092b73d0b7
The main symptoms were that the left and right sidebars
would go to the top for things like selecting a topic,
getting activity updates from the server, and resizing
the window. It was very jarring.
The recent commit looked innocuous--the root of the problem
was the original API expressed an intent to scroll to the
top, but didn't actually do it, so it was a bug in hiding.
There are **some** occasions where it's actually appropriate
to scroll to the top, mostly around search filtering, and
in those places we now call the new `ui.reset_scrollbar`
function.
This is a bit of an emergency fix, so particularly with
the settings stuff, we may get more reports of glitches here.
The important thing here is that you almost never want to
reset the scrollTop for sidebars.
