* Add ability to report dmails.
* Enable reports for comments, forum posts, and dmails.
* Allow Members to send reports.
* Don't allow users to report the same thing twice.
- Posts and topics have an added moderation_reports function
-- This is so all moderation reports can be loaded in a single query
- Those moderation reports are passed into the render functions separately
-- This is so the individual comments/posts don't have to be queried
- Limited to Builders+
-- Moderator+ can also use as they may be too busy ATM
- Only on users, comments, and forum posts
- Multiple reports can be generated per instance
- Primarily posts to a moderator-only topic for viewability
- Secondarily has a table for searchability
-- Viewable only by moderators
Removed IP addresses from comments and from most other listing pages.
IPs take up a lot of space in many places (especially IPv6 addresses),
and in most of these pages they're rarely useful for catching
sockpuppets.
DText is processed in three phases: a preprocessing phase, the regular
parsing phases, and a postprocessing phase.
In the preprocessing phase we extract all the wiki links from all the
dtext messages on the page (more precisely, we do this in forum threads
and on comment pages, because these are the main places with lots of
dtext). This is so we can lookup all the tags and wiki pages in one
query, which is necessary because in the worst case (in certain forum
threads and in certain list_of_* wiki pages) there can be hundreds of
tags per page.
In the postprocessing phase we fixup the html generated by the ragel
parser to add CSS classes to wiki links. We do this in a postprocessing
step because it's easier than doing it in the ragel parser itself.
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.
Changes:
* Drop Users.id_to_name.
* Don't cache Users.name_to_id.
* Replace calls to name_to_id with find_by_name when possible.
* Don't autodefine creator_name in belongs_to_creator.
* Don't autodefine updater_name in belongs_to_updater.
* Instead manually define creator_name / updater_name only on models that need
to return these fields in the api.
id_to_name was cached to reduce the impact of N+1 query patterns in
certain places, especially in api responses that return creator_name /
updater_name fields. But it still meant we were doing N calls to
memcache. Using `includes` to prefetch users avoids this N+1 pattern.
name_to_id had no need be cached, it was never used in any performance-
sensitive contexts.
Avoiding caching also avoids the need to keep these caches consistent.
* Restore behavior of thresholded comments being greyed out (lost in 6fa0ae2cf).
* Set the `below-threshold` class for thresholded comments in the html instead of in javascript.
* Remove `include_below_threshold` param; it was always true when clicking "Show all comments".
Mark the edit form, new comment form, and unvote links as hidden in
html, instead of showing them by default then hiding them later in
Javascript. This eliminates flickering on page load.
Eager load post comments' creators and updaters. Fixes an N+1 queries
problem when rendering commenter names at:
views/comments/partials/show/_comment.html.erb:6
views/comments/partials/show/_comment.html.erb:20
while rendering /posts/:id pages.
* Add 'post as moderator' option to comment form. This creates a so-called sticky comment.
* Downvotes have no effect on stickied comments; they're always visible, regardless of comment thresholds.
* Only mods may sticky comments.
* Mods may sticky comments by other users.
