Postgres doesn't like them, we don't have an obvious way to escape
them, and they tend to be sent by buggy tools where it'd be better for
the user to get an error.
This fixes a 500 we were getting occasionally.
In 1.2.15 version of django-auth-ldap, the authenticate() function of
LDAPBackend takes username and password as keyword arguments. This
commit updates the code to match this change.
Fixes#6588
The `have_scrolled_away_from_top` logic goes way back
to November 2012.
Now we unconditionally load older messages when we scroll
to the top of the feed. Before this bug, you could get
"stuck." It was a bit difficult to reproduce, but with
the right combination of render window sizes and batch
sizes, you would hit the home key quickly and hit the top
of the feed in a way that the flag got in the way of
going back in history.
Fixes#6628
We had a bug where once you scrolled back far enough
in the message view, your "window" for rendered messages
would be at the max, and `prepend` was not adjusting
the window correctly. Now we follow the example of
`append` and call `maybe_rerender`.
This partially addresses #6628, where users were
reporting that the home key stopped going up in their
feed. There was another bug at play for that issue
as well, which is fixed in the next commit.
Before this, the home key would go to the first message in our
render window. Now we go to the first message in our local
list of messages. (Note that there may still be older
messages, so it will still often take multiple uses of the
home key to truly get to the top of your feed.)
Some email services will provide default styling for things like
buttons, and in this case the site created a style that had a
`background` attribute that overrode our `background-color` attribute
because of CSS importance heirarchy. This swiches us to use
`background` as well.
This also forces no `text-shadow` on buttons.
Fixes: #6775.
This commit updates various places where check_send_message had
been previously recommended to recommend check_send_stream_message
for sending messages to a public stream.
We have two different concepts of "idle", and this function
is based on the "presence" aspect of idleness. There is also
idleness in terms of a user having no current client
descriptors accepting messages, and we check that later in
the process for things like sending missed message emails.
