* Fix a bug where explicit GIF videos weren't blurring when the user
wanted them to be blurred.
* Make some improvements to the forums:
* Polls will now remember the Expires setting while you are previewing
and revising your original post.
* Add 14 day and 30 day Expire options for polls.
* Add disclaimer warnings above the Photo Attachment field when the
current forum or thread isn't marked for Explicit content.
Adds two new features to collect and show useful analytics.
Usage Statistics:
* Begin tracking daily active users who log in and interact with major features
of the website each day, such as the chat room, forum and gallery.
Demographics page:
* For marketing, the home page now shows live statistics about the breakdown of
content (explicit vs. non-explicit) on the site, and the /insights page gives
a lot more data in detail.
* Show the percent split in photo gallery content and how many users opt-in or
share explicit content on the site.
* Show high-level demographics of the members (by age range, gender, orientation)
Misc cleanup:
* Rearrange model list in data export to match the auto-create statements.
* In data exports, include the forum_memberships, push_notifications and
usage_statistics tables.
Make some adjustments to blocking behavior regarding the forums:
* Pre-existing bug: on a forum's home page (threads list), if a thread was
created by a blocked user, the thread still appeared with the user's name and
picture visible. Now: their picture and name will be "[unavailable]" but the
thread title/message and link to the thread will remain. Note: in the thread
view itself, posts by the blocked user will be missing as normal.
* Make some tweaks to allow forum moderators (and owners of user-owned forums)
able to see messages from blocked users on their forum:
* In threads: a blocked user's picture and name are "[unavailable]" but the
content of their message is still shown, and can be deleted by moderators.
Misc fixes:
* Private photos: when viewing your granted/grantee lists, hide users whose
accounts are inactive or who are blocked.
* CertifiedSince: in case a user was manually certified but their cert photo
status is not correct, return their user CreatedAt time instead.
* Private forums: CanBeSeenBy moderators, approved followers, its owner and
admin users.
* Note: the endpoint to subscribe to the forum won't allow users to follow
the private forum, so approved followers can not be created at this time,
except by adding them as moderators.
* Admins: when creating a forum they can choose "no category" to create it as
an unofficial community forum.
* Code cleanup
* More feature flag checking
* The "Newest" tab of the forum is updated with new filter options.
* Which forums: All, Official, Community, My List
* Show: By threads, All posts
* The option for "Which forums" is saved in the user's preferences and set as
their default on future visits, similar to the Site Gallery "Whose photos"
option.
* So users can subscribe to their favorite forums and always get their latest
posts easily while filtering out the rest.
* Forum Moderators
* Add the ability to add and remove moderators for your forum.
* Users are notified when they are added as a moderator.
* Moderators can opt themselves out by unfollowing the forum.
* ForumMembership: add unique constraint on user_id,forum_id.
* Add "Browse" tab to the forums to view them all.
* Text search
* Show all, official, community, or "My List" forums.
* Add a Follow/Unfollow button into the header bar of forums to add it to
"My List"
* On the Categories page, a special "My List" category appears at the top
if the user follows categories, with their follows in alphabetical order.
* On the Categories & Browse pages: forums you follow will have a green
bookmark icon by their name.
Permissions:
* The forum owner is able to Delete comments by others, but not Edit.
Notes:
* Currently a max limit of 100 follow forums (no pagination yet).
* Add support to upload a picture to forum posts and replies, in forums that
have the PermitPhotos setting enabled.
* New DB table: CommentPhoto holds the association between a photo and a
forum ID. Photos can be uploaded at preview time (before a CommentID is
available) and get associated to the CommentID on save.
* Cron endpoint /v1/comment-photos/remove-orphaned can clean up orphaned
photos without a CommentID older than 24 hours.
* Add "Photo Boards" as a default forum category for new boards.
* Add a "Newest" tab to the Forums landing page to order ALL forum posts
(comments) by most recent, paginated.
* Add a "Views" cooldown in Redis: viewing the same post multiple times
within 1 hour doesn't ++ the view count with every page load, per user
per thread ID.
* Update the paginators to handle unlimited numbers of pages: shows max
7 page buttons with your current page towards the middle.
* General ability to jump to the "last page" of anything: use a negative
page size like ?page=-1 and it acts like the last page.
* Add "Like" buttons to comments and forum posts.
* Make "private" profiles more private (logged-in users see only their profile
pic, display name, and can friend request or message, if they are not approved
friends of the private user)
* Add "logged-out view" visibility setting to profiles: to share a link to your
page on other sites. Opt-in setting - default is login required to view your
public profile page.
* CSRF cookie fix.
* Updated FAQ & Privacy pages.
* Add ability to (un)subscribe from comment threads on Forums and Photos.
* Creating a forum post, replying to a post or adding a comment to a photo
automatically subscribes you to be notified when somebody else adds a
comment to the thing later.
* At the top of each comment thread is a link to disable or re-enable your
subscription. You can join a subscription without even needing to comment.
If you click to disable notifications, they stay disabled even if you
add another comment later.
Adds initial code for basically functional forums:
* Forums landing page shows hard-coded list of Categories along with any
forums in the DB that use those categories.
* Admin: Create, Edit forums and view forums you own or have admin rights
to modify.
* Landing page forums list shows the title/description and dynamic count of
number of Topics and total number of Posts in each forum. TODO: distinct
count of Users who posted in each forum.
* Board Index page shows list of Threads (posts) with a Replies count and
Views count on each thread.
* Thread view is basically an array of Comments. Users can post, edit and
delete (their own) comments. Deleting the first comment removes the
entire Thread - the thread points to a first Comment to provide its body.
* Reply and Quote-Reply options working.
