Few people used dmail filters (~900 users in 5 years) and even fewer
used them correctly. Most people used them to try to block dmail spam,
but usually they either blocked too much (by adding common words that
are present in nearly all dmails, causing all mails to them to be
filtered) or too little (blocking specific email addresses or urls,
which usually are never seen again after the spammer is banned).
Nowadays the spam detection system does a better job of filtering spam.
The belongs_to_creator macro was used to initialize the creator_id field
to the CurrentUser. This made tests complicated because it meant you had
to create and set the current user every time you wanted to create an
object, when lead to the current user being set over and over again. It
also meant you had to constantly be aware of what the CurrentUser was in
many different contexts, which was often confusing. Setting creators
explicitly simplifies everything greatly.
This was an alternate frontpage that contained a list of previews of the
most popular tags. This page was never linked from anywhere and it was
unknown by most users.
This was a search page that let you search for tags, aliases, and
implications at the same time. It never got much use and it's been
broken for a while now (the search form passed the wrong param to the
controller).
* Warn when renaming a wiki that still has links from other wikis.
* When renaming a wiki that still has posts, just show a warning instead
of returning an error and making the user confirm the rename.
Remove the login reminder page. The meaning of "login reminder" wasn't
clear (it's for recovering a forgotten username) and the functionality
was redundant. The password reset page can already be used to recover
forgotten usernames.
There was also a privacy leak, since the login reminder page could be
used to find out whether a given email is in use on Danbooru.
Don't return the `domains` field in /artists/{id}.{json,xml}. Fixes a
failure in /artists/{id}.xml:
https://danbooru.donmai.us/artists/156646.xml
<result success="false">
undefined method `domains' for #<ArtistUrl:0x00005566dd340af0> Did you mean? DomainName
</result>
`to_xml` passes down the `methods` param to all nested models, which
doesn't work.
Add a new IP address search page at /ip_addresses. Replaces the old
search page at /moderator/ip_addrs.
On user profile pages, show the user's last known IP to mods. Also add
search links for finding other IPs or accounts associated with the user.
IP address search uses a big UNION ALL statement to merge IP addresses
across various tables into a single view. This makes searching easier,
but is known to timeout in certain cases.
Fixes#4207 (the new IP search page supports searching by subnet).
Add these endpoints:
* /note_versions/1234
* /artist_versions/1234
* /artist_commentary_versions/1234
This is so the /ip_addresses listing can link to these endpoints.
Bug: links like these returned 404s:
* https://danbooru.donmai.us/wiki_pages/...
* https://danbooru.donmai.us/wiki_pages/.hack//
* https://danbooru.donmai.us/wiki_pages/ssss.gridman
Cause: by default, Rails uses dots in route segments to separate the id
from the format. For example, in /wiki_pages/ssss.gridman, the id is
parsed as "ssss" and the format is "gridman" (as if "gridman" were a
format like "json" or "xml").
We work around this by specifying the regex for the id param manually.
The trick here is to use a non-greedy match-all combined with a positive
lookahead to detect the extension but not include it in the match.
* Redirect the show_or_new action to either the show page or the new
page. Don't use show_or_new to render nonexistent wikis; do that in the
regular show action instead.
* Make the show action return 404 for nonexistent wikis.
Change wiki page search to redirect to exact matches only when using the
quick search bar. Fixes searches sometimes unexpectedly redirecting when
doing a regular (non-quick) search that happens to return a single result.
Also remove the logic that tries to expand the search when no results
are found. This will eventually be replaced with a smarter "did you mean?"
search.
* Move forum post vote tests from test/controllers to test/functional.
* Fix forum post vote tests to work with new routes.
* Fix obsolete wiki page tests dealing with updater_id.
* Remove the single alias and implication request forms. From now
on, bulk update requests are the only way to request aliases or
implications.
* Remove the forum topic ID field from the bulk update request form.
Instead, to attach a BUR to an existing topic you go to the topic then
you click "Request alias/implication" at the top of the page.
* Update the bulk update request form to give better examples for the
script format and to explain the difference between aliases and
implications.
* Change cutoffs on upload page to max 5 results, min. 20% similarity.
* Change cutoffs on standalone /iqdb_queries page to max 20 results, min. 0% similarity.
* /iqdb_queries.json: add `limit` and `similarity` params to change default cutoffs.
Make the timestamp beneath the username on forum posts into a permalink
that links to the post in full context of the thread. For comments, make
the timestamp link to the comment in full context of the post.
* Make the timestamp in forum posts link to /forum_posts/123.
* Make the timestamp in comments link to /posts/456#comment_123.
* Make /forum_posts/123 redirect to /forum_topics/456#forum_post_123.
* Make /comments/123 redirect to /posts/456#comment_123.
* Remove the "ID: ###" and "Permalink" fields from forum posts.
This was a mod-only report that used Google BigQuery to search post
versions by tag. 2b4ee0ee8 allows all users to search post versions by
tag, so this report is no longer necessary.
* Add ability to search /post_versions by added tags, removed tags, or
changed tags (added or removed).
* Add 'History' link to the sidebar of the /posts index. This is a
shortcut for a /post_versions search of the current tag.
Remove all infrastructure around approving or rejecting user name
changes. Name changes haven't been moderated for several years.
* Remove status, approver_id, change_reason, and rejection_reason fields.
* Remove approve and reject controller actions.
