Users whose accounts are no longer eligible to be in the chat room will be
disconnected immediately from chat when their account status changes.
The places in nonshy where these disconnects may happen include:
* When the user deactivates or deletes their account.
* When they modify their settings to mark their profile as 'private,' making
them become a Shy Account.
* When they edit or delete their photos in case they have moved their final
public photo to be private, making them become a Shy Account.
* When the user deletes their certification photo, or uploads a new cert photo
to be reviewed (in both cases, losing account certified status).
* When an admin user rejects their certification photo, even retroactively.
* On admin actions against a user, including: banning them, deleting their
user account.
Other changes made include:
* When signing up an account and e-mail sending is not enabled (e.g. local
dev environment), the SignupToken is still created and logged to the console
so you can continue the signup manually.
* On the new account DOB prompt, add a link to manually input their birthdate
as text similar to on the Age Gate page.
* Delete all change logs AboutUserID on account deletion, and export
them in the data export zip.
* Log admin changes to ban/admin status of other users.
* Log user deactivations/reactivations and deletions (self serve or
admin deletion).
* Add a ChangeLog table to collect historic updates to various database tables.
* Created, Updated (with field diffs) and Deleted actions are logged, as well
as certification photo approves/denies.
* Specific items added to the change log:
* When a user photo is marked Explicit by an admin
* When users block/unblock each other
* When photo comments are posted, edited, and deleted
* When forums are created, edited, and deleted
* When forum comments are created, edited and deleted
* When a new forum thread is created
* When a user uploads or removes their own certification photo
* When an admin approves or rejects a certification photo
* When a user uploads, modifies or deletes their gallery photos
* When a friend request is sent
* When a friend request is accepted, ignored, or rejected
* When a friendship is removed
Add a permission system for admin users so you can lock down specific admins to
a narrower set of features instead of them all having omnipotent powers.
* New page: Admin Dashboard -> Admin Permissions Management
* Permissions are handled in the form of 'scopes' relevant to each feature or
action on the site. Scopes are assigned to Groups, and in turn, admin user
accounts are placed in those Groups.
* The Superusers group (scope '*') has wildcard permission to all scopes. The
permissions dashboard has a create-once action to initialize the Superusers
for the first admin who clicks on it, and places that admin in the group.
The following are the exhaustive list of permission changes on the site:
* Moderator scopes:
* Chat room (enter the room with Operator permission)
* Forums (can edit or delete user posts on the forum)
* Photo Gallery (can see all private/friends-only photos on the site
gallery or user profile pages)
* Certification photos (with nuanced sub-action permissions)
* Approve: has access to the Pending tab to act on incoming pictures
* List: can paginate thru past approved/rejected photos
* View: can bring up specific user cert photo from their profile
* The minimum requirement is Approve or else no cert photo page
will load for your admin user.
* User Actions (each action individually scoped)
* Impersonate
* Ban
* Delete
* Promote to admin
* Inner circle whitelist: no longer are admins automatically part of the
inner circle unless they have a specialized scope attached.
The AdminRequired decorator may also apply scopes on an entire admin route.
The following routes have scopes to limit them:
* Forum Admin (manage forums and their settings)
* Remove from inner circle
* A reason must be entered to impersonate a user, and it triggers a
Report and email notification to the admin.
* User gallery pages will show at the top whether the user had granted
you access to their private photos.
* Add impersonate feature
* Add ban/unban user feature
* Add promote/demote admin status feature
* Add admin user deletion feature
* Admin ability to see other status certification pics
* Nav bar indicator of pending admin actions such as cert pics
needing approval
* Admin ability to search cert pics for specific user
