this adds a new page with instructions for sharing user invites
if a user clicks the link for one of their own invite codes they are
directed to a page with clear instructions for it's use.
if a user clicks another users link they are redirectec to their account
settings witha flash telling them they do not need to register.
includes cache of latest version and page to view if updates are
available with a link to the latest update's release notes and a link to
check for the latest update now, refreshing the cache manually.
This renders all requests for that user's posts, collections and related
ActivityPub endpoints with 404 responses.
While suspended, users may not create or edit posts or collections.
User status is listed in the admin user page
Admin view of user details shows status and now has a button to activate
or suspend a user.
this adds basic support for importing files as blog posts.
.txt and .md are supported at this time and the
collection is selectable, defaulting to draft.
if a collection is specified the post is federated.
This adds a new config value: `chorus` that signifies an instance is
more about the Reader view than individual blogs / writers. When
enabled, user navigation will show on all pages, including About,
Reader, and Privacy (ref T680).
It also uses different collection templates that keep the instance-wide
navigation at the top of the page, instead of the author's name --
again, branded more for the collective than the individual.
Ref T681
This adds a new `wf_modesty` config option that removes the copious
mentions of WriteFreely in places like the About page and site
footers.
WriteFreely remains boastful and bumptious by default; but enabling
the modesty option will tone it down and likely lead to less confusion
among average users.
Ref T676
- This removes copy mentioning the Blogs page, which isn't used on
single-user instances
- This fixes the "Start writing" link, which on a single-user instance
would've gone to the blog index, rather than the editor
Previously, these links showed up on user backend pages on a single-user
instance, despite them not working / only being applicable on multi-user
instances.
This enables admins to customize their landing / home page via the Admin
dashboard -- including the text at the top of the page and the section
below it. It keeps the current default text, falling back to it if the
user hasn't overwritten it.
Ref T565
Now admins can choose a title for their About and Privacy pages; now
editable through the instance page editor.
This adds `title` and `content_type` fields to the `appcontent` table,
requiring a migration by running `writefreely --migrate`
The content_type field specifies that items we're currently storing in
this table are all "page"s; queries for fetching these have been updated
to filter for this type. In the future, this field will be used to
indicate when an item is a stylesheet (ref T563) or other supported
type.
Ref T566
This adds a "Pages" section to the admin part of the site, and enables
admins to edit the pre-defined About and Privacy pages there, instead of
on the dashboard itself.
It also restructures how these pages get sent around in the backend and
lays the groundwork for dynamically adding static pages. The backend
changes were made with more customization in mind, such as an
instance-wide custom stylesheet (T563).
Ref T566
This includes:
- A new `user_invites` config value that determines who can generate
invite links
- A new page for generating invite links, with new user navigation link
- A new /invite/ path that allows anyone to sign up via unique invite
link, even if registrations are closed
- Tracking who (of registered users) has been invited by whom
It requires an updated database with `writefreely --migrate` in order to
work.
This closes T556
This enables admins on multi-user instances to see all users registered,
and view the details of each, including:
- Username
- Join date
- Total posts
- Last post date
- All blogs
- Public info
- Views
- Total posts
- Last post date
- Fediverse followers count
This is the foundation for future user moderation features.
Ref T553
This adds a "Reader" section of the site for admins who want to enable
it for their instance. That means visitors can go to /read and see who
has publicly shared their writing. They can also follow all public posts
via RSS by going to /read/feed/. Writers on an instance with this
`local_timeline` setting enabled can publish to the timeline by going
into their blog settings and choosing the "Public" visibility setting.
The `local_timeline` feature is disabled by default, as is the Public
setting on writer blogs. Enabling it adds a "Reader" navigation item and
enables the reader endpoints. This feature will also consume more
memory, as public posts are cached in memory for 10 minutes.
These changes include code ported over from Read.Write.as, and thus
include some experimental features like filtering public posts by tags
and authors. These features aren't well-tested or complete.
Closes T554
This allows admin to edit these pages from the web, using Markdown. It
also dynamically loads information on those pages now, and makes loading
`pages` templates a little easier to find in the code / more explicit.
It requires this new schema change:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `appcontent` (
`id` varchar(36) NOT NULL,
`content` mediumtext CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL,
`updated` datetime NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
This closes T533
