- we currently only store a cancellation reason when a member cancels
manually in Portal
- we now also store "Payment failed" when the cancellation is automatic
due to several payment failures

[ENG-709](https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/ENG-709/%F0%9F%90%9B-bad-redirects-causing-container-tear-down)
Added validation to prevent RegEx's susceptible to ReDoS from being used
with custom redirects. Also moved error details out of `context` and
into `errorDetails` to be consistent with error logging elsewhere as
well as fix issue in admin-x where blank screen would be shown when an
error occurred during redirects upload (due to logic not accounting for
`context` being an object)

- multiple fixes for unhandled (but non user-visible) errors causing noise in console and error logging
ref https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/SLO-173/removed-distinct-from-member-count-query
Performance of GET /members API can be improved by dropping the distinct from the total members count query.
select count(distinct members.id) as aggregate from `members`; // 275ms
select count(*) as aggregate from `members`; // 30ms
In this case we know that the result set will always be unique.

- added composite index to posts_tags for post_id,tag_id for faster
lookup
- added composite index to posts for updated_at; this is commonly used
by get helpers on the front end to display data like the latest posts
In testing, this provided a very dramatic improvement for simple get
helper requests like 'filter="id:-{{post.id}}+tag:sampleTag" limit="3"'
which are by default sorted by updated_at desc. I'm not entirely clear
why when sorting by published_at we do not need a composite index - so
far it doesn't seem to be necessary. This should cover the primary cases
for get helpers - the latest posts with a given tag or set of tags.

ref 9d9a421
We recently stopped `select *` from posts when making Content API
requests. This is now being applied to the pages endpoint to help
improve performance. These fields were already being stripped out in the
output serializer, and they will now no longer be returned from the db
at all, reducing the amount of data transferred.
ref https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/CFR-35
- performance improvement intended for the content api/get helpers
The posts table is shared by posts and pages and seldom is queried for
both. It makes sense to add an index on type, and from the perspective
of the content API, also on status as you're almost only ever querying
for published posts or published pages.

- OpenTelemetry was throwing errors when viewing posts
- disabled the instrumentation in development mode so it requires explicit config to enable
no issue
Full details coming soon to https://ghost.org/changelog
- Link toolbar and bookmark cards now let you search your existing posts/pages/tags/authors in addition to manually entering the URL
- Typing "@" inside your content lets you quickly search and add a text link
- Typing "@" on a blank paragraph provides a quick way to search and add a bookmark
no issue
- removed labs flag
- removed labs flag conditionals
- removed code related to old setup/done screen
- fixed tests that weren't correctly running against the GA flag code

https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/ENG-1240/race-condition-when-updating-members-last-seen-at-timestamp
When members click a link in an email, Ghost updates the member's
`last_seen_at` timestamp, but it should only update the timestamp if the
member hasn't yet been seen in the current day (based on the
publication's timezone).
Currently there is a race condition present where multiple simultaneous
requests from the same member (if e.g. an email link checker is
following all links in an email) can cause the `last_seen_at` timestamp
to be updated multiple times in the same day for the same member. These
additional queries add a significant load on Ghost and its database,
which can contribute to the exhaustion of the connection pool and
eventually requests may time out.
The primary motivation for this change is to avoid that race condition
by adding a lock to the member row, checking if `last_seen_at` has
already been updated in the current day, and only updating it if it
hasn't.
Another beneficial side-effect of this change is that it avoids locking
the `labels` and `newsletters` tables, which are locked when we update
the `last_seen_at` timestamp in the `members` table currently. This
should improve Ghost's ability to handle a large influx of requests to
redirect endpoints (confirmed with load tests), which tend to happen
immediately after a publisher sends an email.
This commit adds OpenTelemetry instrumentation to Ghost's backend, which
allows us to view traces similar to what we see in Sentry Performance
locally.
OpenTelemetry is enabled if `NODE_ENV === 'development'` or if it is
explicitly enabled via config with `opentelemetry:enabled`.
It also adds a [Jaeger](https://www.jaegertracing.io/) container to
Ghost's docker-compose file for viewing the traces. There's no setup
required (beyond running `yarn docker:reset` to pickup the changes in
the docker-compose file the first time — but this will also reset your
DB so be careful). This will launch the Jaeger container, and you can
view the UI to see the traces at `http://localhost:16686/search`.
no issue
Typing "@" in the editor will immediately trigger an internal link search to make it faster to link to one of your articles. After typing "@" continue typing to search, results can be selected using Up/Down arrow keys or the mouse, then pressing Enter or clicking will insert the selected result's title pre-linked. Pressing Escape or moving the cursor out of the search box will cancel the search.
- removed labs flag
- updated Koenig feature flag for at-linking to use the same flag as our internal linking beta

The font size of subtitles/excerpts in newsletters was similar to the
body font size which doesn't reflect the content hierarchy
appropriately. Also, the spacing should be adjusted to represent that
the title and the subtitle belong together.

https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/DES-4/image-caption-size-in-email-newsletter.
There were no styles defined for captions for cards beyond the featured
image (bookmark, gallery, video), and we had no way of targeting those
captions with CSS. They are now wrapped in a div with a specific class,
which allows for more selective styling, and are styled similarly to the
caption of the featured image.
