ancsemi/Haven v4.30.0-beta.1

Haven 4.30.0-beta.1

on GitHub

Early access release. Servers on the early access channel (Settings > Admin > "Early access updates") and the Docker :beta image get it; everyone else stays on 4.29.0 until the next stable.

It has everything in 4.29.0, plus these, which are not in a stable yet:

Added

• Mass-select in forums: a Select button on the forum toolbar and a Select entry in a topic's right-click menu pick topics for moving or deleting several at once, with Select all. Phone-width screens had no way into selection mode in a forum. Moving offers forums only and takes the topics' replies along. Thanks Amnibro (#5892).
• A bell in the reply bar chooses whether your reply sends a push notification to the person you reply to (on by default, remembered on this device). With it on, a reply reaches them like an @mention would, including through a server muted with "except @mentions", and replies inside a thread now notify their author too. Thanks Bo0sted (#5891).
• Merge a channel into another (admin, a channel's menu > Merge into…), for the duplicates a Ferry history import leaves next to channels copied by hand. The channel merged into keeps its name, settings, permissions and members; every message of the other moves into it in time order, threads and all, and the other is deleted. A Discord message that is in both (imported in one, relayed by Ferry in the other) is kept once, with its replies, reactions and pin. Messages that look re-posted by hand from Discord (the same text, posted later in Haven) are listed with both copies, and only the ticked ones go, leaving the Discord copy with its real author and time. Ferry links, webhooks, scheduled messages and role menus come along, a later history import lands in the merged channel, and people who were caught up stay caught up. Protected messages always stay.
• Link previews fold themselves after the second one in a message, so a message with many links no longer fills the chat; the chevron on a folded card opens it (#5882). The Link Previews settings also have "Start link previews folded", which folds every card until you open it, on this device (#5883).
• A switch for the mouse side buttons (Settings > Chat > Mouse side buttons go back and forward). Off, they do nothing in Haven, for people who use them as push to talk or a hotkey in another program (#5886).
• Bots can edit their own messages: PATCH /api/webhooks/<token>/messages/<message_id> with the new content. For tools that mirror another service, so a changed comment is edited in place instead of deleted and posted again (asked for by Beef_Enthusiast). See the bot section of the guide.

Fixed

• A new forum post written while in a timeout vanished with only a few seconds of red notice, and nothing said how long the timeout would last. The title and text now come back to send later, and a notice above the message box shows the time left until the timeout ends.
