This commit introduces the change of rendering private messages
section as collapsible, whose data-fetching logic came with zulip#21357.
We now have separated out `Private messages` from `top_left_corner`
section and shifted it below the `global_filters` in a different
separate section along with stream list with common scroll bar
in left-sidebar.
The new PM section will be opened by-default on loading the page
and will have a toggle-icon in its header, clicking on which makes the
section collapse/expand accordingly.
In default view, only recent 5 PM threads would be shown
and would append the active conversation as the 6th one at last
if not present in those 5, similar to how topics list work.
In PM section with unreads, a maximum of 8 conversations
would be shown and rest of them would be hidden behind
the 'more conversations' li-item, clicking on which takes
to the zoomedIn view of PM section where all the present
PM threads would be visible and rest of the sections of left-sidebar
will get collapsed.
Fixes#20870.

Dropped text "(Message sent when you were not subscribed)" for
historical messages in the three-dot message menu.
This information was already available via the "You subscribed" type
divider lines, which were added about the same time back in 2013, and
this text feels somewhat ugly.
Also removed the historical field from the args object that is
passed to the template, as this is not used anymore.
Fixes#23198.
Some options in the profile menu are not documented in the help center.
Documents "View messages sent".
Documents "View messages with yourself".
Links `sender:me` search operator to the relevant section on this page.
Fixes: #23203.
Updates the `filter.get_title` logic to return the stream name for
narrows that include the stream, topic and near operators. That
way the browser/tab title remains the same for these views, which
have a particular scroll offset.
Change URLs on "Choosing between Zulip Cloud and self-hosting" page
to be non-relative when pointing to the Zulip landing page or `/new`
for creating a new Zulip Cloud organization.
Removes call to reset_compose_message_max_height when clicking on
the markdown preview button, which due to the `#compose` div element
momentarily shrinking to be empty, caused the calculation of the
max-height to grow larger on each click.
Also refactors reset_compose_message_max_height to use the height
from `getBoundingClientRect`, which defaults to zero when empty.
And fixes a small discrepancy in how max-height is applied to
a div element vs a textarea element, so that the visible height
doesn't change between the preview and write modes in the compose
box.
Fixes#23277.
Before Zulip 4.9, the Zulip install process left any already-installed
rabbitmq with whatever nodename it had previously configured. Wince
this encodes the name of the host when it was installed, this does not
function well with containers.
Leave rabbitmq-server uninstalled, which lets the Zulip installation
process set the nodename to `localhost`, which ensures that it is
usable across container restarts.
This gives us some time to render and fetch data before allowing
user to start using hotkeys. It avoids error being thrown when
hotkeys are used when the app is still loading.
Updates the hash used for the recent conversations view to be
"#recent" instead of "#recent_topics".
We will need to keep the logic for handling "#recent_topics"
permanently because users potentially have messages from
Welcome Bot with links to that hash.
Including "recent_topics" as a web_public_allowed_hash in
hash_util.js can be changed once self-hosted servers cannot
upgrade directly to Zulip 5.x from the current version.
Fixes#23132.
The resize handler is a somewhat expensive operation, which we'd like
to avoid when processing the receipt of new messages. It's also
unclear why it would be necesssary; bottom_whitespace is fixed in
size, and the sidebars.
It should be very rare to discover new unread messages during a
message_fetch call. This can potentially happen due to races (fetching
just as a new message arrives), but it shouldn't be the common case.
Previously, we would trigger a full rerender of all UI displaying
unread messages every time a bulk message fetch operation returned
(including every time one narrowed), regardless of whether any actual
state had changed.
Fix this by actually checking if we discovered any new unread messages.
There's no reason that opening left sidebar popovers should require
the app to recalculate the size of any of its components; popovers are
drawn on top of the rest of the UI in any case.
This appears to have been added in
9ed05a1f85 as part of prototyping the
left side user list feature.
This was likely introduced in error in
fd66d9f70336b2bdbbffb1bf13402516b9920682; it is a duplicate of
show_userlist_sidebar, which, in contrast is actually called.
Because we can count on the unread.js data structures to be correct,
we no longer need this legacy code that tries to re-process all
messages the client has cached for whether any are present in the
target stream and marked as unread.
It's not clear we need this at all, since the current Zulip server
will mark all messages as read when unsubscribing from a stream, but
having this call protects us from future bugs should that behavior
change.
This cleanup also revealed a possible bug, where we would fail to
update global unread counts properly when unsubscribing from a stream
until the deferred_work queue processor sends us the
update_message_flags event associated with that change.
The previous invocation message_util.do_unread_count_updates dates
from a time when `unread.js` did have any data beyond what full
message objects were present in the client, and thus we needed to
recalculate everything from those message objects when muting state
was changed.
With the modern unread.js data structures, all that's required is a
full recalculation/rerender via this function.
We change the "pm-with" and "sender" narrow urls
to be of "{user-id}-{encoded_name}" form instead
of using email. This change improves performance
of changing between PM views since parseOneAddress
function was slow and we remove its usage now by
using name instead of email.
The name is encoded such that the characters that
would be encoded by the browsers are replaced by
"-".
Now that we show the \vdots icon while the actions popover is open,
there's a weird looking behavior where a focus outline appears around
the \vdots icon, only if you clicked on the icon itself, not its
square containing click arrow.
Disable this unintended behavior, which disrupts the otherwise
simulated state where focus is in the popover (but no row is focused).
The color for the message control buttons is set in the
`message_control_button` class. The `reaction_button_visible` class
also sets a color declaration with the same value.
This commit removes this declaration because it doesn't change the
color of the reaction icon(the class is currently only used in
conjunction with `message_control_button` to toggle the button
visibility) nor does it override any inherited style (hover color
remains the same regardless) as it lacks an `!important` rule.
This commit fixes the issue where the 3-dots menu icons on the left
sidebar disappear even though the associated popover is open by
toggling a special CSS class on the menu item. It follows the same
approach used by the emoji picker on the message feed UI.
Fixes #23157
This commit enables the 3-dot menu to be visible while the associated
actions popover is open using the fact that the 'has_actions_popover'
class is attached to the message with an open popover. This approach
solves the bug without any additional JavaScript code.
Fixes part of #23157
Output message should talk about both the cases:
actual_count > expected_count and actual_count < expected_count.
The message now includes information for the case where
actual_query_count < expected_query_count.
Fixes: #23325
We should not show UI for moving locally echoed or failed messages.
For the edit/move icon in message controls -
- After 2451002, we showed "Move message" icon for locally echoed
messages when moving messages was allowed as per org permissions.
This was clearly a bug and this commit fixes it and we instead
show "View source" icon.
For "m" hotkey -
- After 2451002, pressing "m" opened "Move messages" modal for
locally echoed messages when moving messages was allowed as per
org permissions. This was clearly a bug and this commit fixes it
and pressing "m" does nothing.
For pencil icon in recipient header -
- Previously, the pencil icon was showed even if first message
below the recipient bar was locally echoed and the topic edit
failed silently with locally echoed or failed messages again
showing under old topic after reload. This commit fixes it
to hide the icon in such cases. The original behavior was
that server returned an error with not so appropriate
response.
- Note that we can only check the first message below the header
since it will be inefficient to check all the messages whether
each of them is successfully sent.
And in such cases when any of the later messages is locally
echoed, the topic edit succeeds but the locally echoed or failed
messages are shown under old topic after reload.
- The behavior is same for the "checkmark" icon for resolving
topics in the header.
For three-dot message menu -
- We don't need to do anything here since the three-dot icon
is not shown for locally echoed or failed messages.
For the "Move topic" option in topic popover in left sidebar -
- We cannot do anything here since it will be inefficient
to check all messages in the topic whether they are locally
echoed or not everytime we open the popover.
- If the first message in topic is locally echoed or a failed
message, then the id of first message of the topic returned
from server is undefined and we see an error in client while
trying to get message from that id. And if one or multiple of
the later messages is locally echoed, then only successful and
server-acked messages are moved.
Note that this cannot handle all cases like a user can use
a successfully sent message to access the topic edit UI
and then choose "change_all" and "change_later" propagate
modes. In such cases the locally echoed and failed messages
will remain in the old topic only.
We now do not test is_topic_editable function in
get_editability test for better readability and
this will be helpful when we will need to test
more cases as part of #21739.
The message_hover function in ui_init.js had an if condition
to return early when is_topic_editable was false. We instead
change it to return early when message.sent_by_me is false
since in that case the edit_content element is not present.
Note that we also show the "View source" icon when message
is locally echoed or not sent successfully.
Till now is_topic_editable is always true when message is sent
by the user itself, and when message is sent by someone else
the edit_content element does not exist in the DOM anyway. So,
basically, it just helps in returing early and not unnecessarily
move forward to set html for a non-existent div. So, we can
ideally replace it with just `sent_by_me` condition and otherwise
we already show the reaction icon.
The comment above that also mentioned that "locally echoed messages
have !is_topic_editable" which is not true since is_topic_editable
does not check whether the message is locally-echoed or not. This
comment was added in e1c4c7b80.
This also fixes the bug where "View source" icon is not shown when
"message.sent_by_me" is true and both editing and moving message
is not allowed which currently happens when allow_message_editing
setting is False.
Also, the "is_topic_editable" condition will be not valid in future
when "is_topic_editable" can be false when "sent_by_me" is true. In
such cases we would not show any icon then, so better to fix this
here.
Some history of this code-
- Intially we returned only when !sent_by_me was false, but added
a condition to return early when realm_allow_community_topic_editing
was false in 91197fa4f1. Though it was not needed since edit_content
element amyways did not existed when `sent_by_me` was false.
- Then the condition was then changed to return early if
is_topic_editable was false in 689c717284.
We do not allow sending messages where sending request had failed
or message is locally echoed. This commit extracts these checks
to a new function so that we can avoid duplicating code.
This fixes a couple significant issues with the drafts logic:
* Previously, we would move drafts even when !going_forward_change; this
is inconsistent with the compose box logic on the previous line.
* The drafts.rename_topic() function did not handle drafts with
incomplete stream/topic fields correctly, throwing an exception in
that case; this resulted in user-visible live update problems
because code after the drafts.rename_topic call would not be
executed.
Updates the current 6.0 release notes to include information about
the rename to "Recent conversations", and updates past references
to "recent topics" to be consistently formatted as "Recent topics".
Replaces instances of "recent topics" in the web-app and documentation
to be "recent conversations".
Renames both `recent-topics.md` files in the help center to be
`recent-conversations.md` and updates/redirects links to new URL.
Does not update instances of "recent topics" in frontend code comments
and does not update the main overview changelog, for now.
Does not change case study text where "recent topics" was referenced
in a quote, but does change generic text references to be "recent
conversations".
