Some OAuth providers (like Mastodon) do not use the default
"read_user" scope, instead offering a custom scope. The config.ini
for generic OAuth now contains a "scope" field, allowing the admin
to set the scope manually (it defaults to "read_user" if blank).
Some WriteFreely instances are completely private, and thus have no need for public-
oriented features like Web Monetization. Like federation, this gives admins control
over whether or not the feature is enabled for users.
Ref T773
When setting `notes_only = true` in the `[app]` configuration section, WF will only send out `Note` objects. Otherwise, it will send out both `Note`s and `Article`s.
This moves logic for determining whether or not to show a "Sign up" page
on /signup (i.e. because the `/` route shows another, non-signup page)
into the AppCfg.SignupPath() method. It also changes various signup
links to use this value.
This adds gopher support to WriteFreely -- both single- and multi-user
instances. It is off by default, but can be enabled with the new
`gopher_port` config value in the `[server]` section.
When enabled, multi-user instances will show all public blogs at
gopher://[host]:[gopher_port]/ -- otherwise, blogs are accessible at
gopher://[host]:[gopher_port]/[blog]/
This is just a proof of concept for now. We still need to handle some
edge cases and different configurations, like private instances.
Ref T559
This adds a new config option that signifies the admin doesn't need to
see deeply technical things, like application resource usage. In the
[app] section, set forest = true to enable this.
Ref T694
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 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 adds a new "Secure (port 443), auto certificate" option to the "Web
server mode" prompt when running `writefreely --config`. When chosen,
it'll set `autocert` to `true` and set the path for certs and keys to
`certs`.
Ref T542
This adds a new config option in the `[server]` section: `autocert`.
When true, WF will automatically generate certificates instead of using
ones from the provided cert path. However, all generated certificates
will be stored in the configured `tls_cert_path`.
