The emoji picker now uses
Discourse continues to be GDPR compliant by allowing admins to export individual user data through the User exports section, which is available when selecting a specific user from admin settings.
Trust level 0 (TL0) and anonymous users can now flag and report illegal content.
Admin settings now only show relevant site settings in dedicated pages when you click on any item that contains settings from the sidebar, i.e., Spam, Experimental, Rate limits, etc.
This release includes fixes for these security issues reported by our community and HackerOne .
