This effectively implements the feature of default stream groups,
except for a UI, nice styling, etc.
Note that we're careful to not have this do anything in an
organization that doesn't have any default stream groups.
While it's totally fine to put a leading '.' before the cookie domain
for normal hostnames and browsers will just strip them, if you're
using an IP address, it doesn't work, because .127.0.0.1 (for example)
is just invalid, and the cookie won't be set.
This fixes an issue where after installing with an IP address, realm
creation would end with being stuck at a blank page for
/accounts/login/subdomain/.
While our recent changing to hide /register means we don't need a nice
pretty error message here, eventually we'll want to clean up the error
message.
Fixes#7047.
This new function extractions the bit of logic we use after creating a
new user account to log them in and send them to the home page,
without emailing the user about their new login.
Use this new variable to determine if the user already exists while
doing registration. While doing login through GitHub if we press
*Go back to login*, we pass email using email variable. As a result,
the login page starts showing the "User already exists error" if we
don't change the variable.
Previously, Zulip's server logs would not show which user or client
was involved in login or user registration actions, which made
debugging more annoying than it needed to be.
Unlike creating a stream, there's really no reason one would want to
call the function to create a realm while uncertain whether that realm
already existed.
This should significantly improve the user experience for new users
signing up with GitHub/Google auth. It comes complete with tests for
the various cases. Further work may be needed for LDAP to not prompt
for a password, however.
Fixes#886.
Both the queue processor and ScheduledJob emails need to sometimes pass a
to_user_id and sometimes pass a to_email, and it's more convenient to just
have one function that they can call that can handle either.
Also removes the now redundant send_email_to_user.
This prevents users from accidentally sending a confirmation link
specific to their account to their Zulip administrator if they reply
to the invitation, invitation reminder, account confirmation, or new
email confirmation emails.
No change in behavior.
Also makes the first step towards converting all uses of
settings.ZULIP_ADMINISTRATOR and settings.NOREPLY_EMAIL_ADDRESS to
FromAddress.*.
Once everything is converted, it will be easier to ensure that future
development doesn't break backwards compatibility with the old style of
settings emails.
This will allow for customized senders for emails, e.g. 'Zulip Digest' for
digest emails and 'Zulip Missed Messages' for missed message emails.
Also:
* Converts the sender name to always be "Zulip", if the from_email used to
be settings.NOREPLY_EMAIL_ADDRESS or settings.ZULIP_ADMINISTRATOR.
* Changes the default value of settings.NOREPLY_EMAIL_ADDRESS in the
prod_setting_template to no longer have a display name. The only use of
that display name was in the email pathway.
