* Improved log output for welcome email error
no issue
- if Ghost is unable to send a welcome email, the server log printe a huge error log
- the reason was that each component wrapped the original error into a new error instance
- so the stack grows and grows
- the golden rule should always be: the smallest/lowest component should instanitate a specifc error
- the caller can expect to receive a custom Ghost error
* Tidy up error messages for mail failures and fix tests
- We never use "Error:" notation in our translations
- Make the error messages consistent and show a reason if possible

- this is how the from field looks like "blog title <owner@blog.com>"
- so if you set your blog title with double quotes, it throws a syntax error from the smtp library
closes#8037🔥 Remove API-level default settings population
- This is a relic!
- We ALWAYS populate defaults on server start therefore this code could never run.
- This was a lot of complicated code that wasn't even needed!!
🎨 Move settings cache
- Move settings cache to be its own thing
- Update all references
- Adds TODOs for further cleanup
🎨 Create settings initialisation step
- Create new settings library, which will eventually house more code
- Unify the interface for initialising settings (will be more useful later)
- Reduce number of calls to updateSettingsCache
* 🎨🔥 do not store settings in config and make settings cache easier available
- remove remembering settings value in theme config
- if we need a cache value, we are asking the settings cache directly
- instead of settings.getSettingSync we use settings.cache.get
- added TODO:
- think about moving the settings cache out of api/settings
- we could create a folder named cache cache/settings
- this settings cache listens on model changes for settings
- decoupling
* 🔥 remove timezone from config
- no need to store in overrides config and in defaults settings
* 🎨 context object helper
- replace config.get('theme') by settings cache
* 🎨 replace config.get('theme') by settings.cache.get
* 🎨 adapt tests
* fixes from comments
refs #7488
- to be able to refactor the url configuration in ghost, we need to go step by step making this possible
- reduce the usage of forceAdminSSL
- add a urlFor('admin') helper, which returns the admin url + path e.g. http://my-blog.com/blog/ghost
- increase usage of urlFor helper
- do not expose getBaseUrl, use urlFor('home') (home === blog)
refs #7666
Using `urlFor('home')` instead `config.get('url')` in Ghost.
When `urlFor('home', true)` returns the absolute adress of the blog as defined in the config.
Will always return a trailing `/`.
closes#7212
When no Blog title is set and there is a `from` mail adress without custom name set up in `config.js`, it will overwrite `config.theme.title` in `GhostMailer.from` and forces to have a (wrong) Blog title after sending a test mail or an invitation.
- Uses a variable `defaultBlogTitle` instead of overwriting `config.theme.title`, when no blog title is set and therefore `config.theme.title` has no value.
refs #7023
The template can be used for all cases (different newsletter interval, different amount of blog posts, with or without blog picture).
The template can be filled with the following data structure:
- `blog.logo` is the blog logo from settings
- `blog.title` is the title of the current blog
- `blog.url` is the URL of the blog
- `blog.twitterURL` is the twitter profile URL of the blog from settings
- `blog.facebookURL` is the facebook page URL of the blog from settings
- `blog.unsubscribe` is the link for the reader to unsubscribe from the blog
- `newsletter.interval` is the interval in words like 'weekly', 'daily', 'monthly'
- `newsletter.date` is the date of the newsletter issue in a format like 'June 9th, 2016'
- `blog.post` is expected to be an array:
- `blog.post[i].picture` is the picture of the blog post. There are also conditionals, which change the inline CSS to either show a border-top if there's no picture (in that case the HTML code, that shows the picture is not active)
- `blog.post[i].title` is the title of the current blog post
- `blog.post[i].text` is the text of the current blog post, which needs to be cut down to 278 letters, plus ending with `…`
- `blog.post[i].url` is the URL of the current blog post
- `blog.post[i].tag` is the tag of the current blog post
- `blog.post[i].author` is the author of the current blog post
Important is, that only HEX HTML entities will work, especially in Outlook. So instead of `—` we need to use `—` and `’` instead of `'` or `'` and so on.
Added unit test for newsletter template in `test/unit/mail/utils_spec.js`.
