This change blocks Help Center access for default/Hacker-plan accounts
and closes the downgrade gap that could leave `help_center` enabled
after a subscription falls back to the default cloud plan.
Fixes: none
Closes: none
## Why
Default-plan accounts should not be able to access the Help Center, but
the downgrade fallback path only reset the plan name and did not
reconcile premium feature flags. That meant some accounts could keep
`help_center` enabled even after landing back on the Hacker/default
plan.
## What this change does
- blocks Help Center portal and article access for default/Hacker-plan
accounts
- reconciles premium feature flags when a subscription falls back to the
default cloud plan, so `help_center` is disabled immediately instead of
waiting for a later webhook
- preserves existing account `custom_attributes` during Stripe customer
recreation instead of overwriting them
- adds Enterprise coverage for the default-plan access checks on hosted
and custom-domain Help Center routes
- fixes the public access check to use the resolved portal object so
blocked requests return the intended response instead of raising an
error
## Validation
1. Create or use an account on the default/Hacker cloud plan with an
active portal.
2. Visit the portal home page and a published article on both the
Chatwoot-hosted URL and a configured custom domain.
3. Confirm the Help Center is blocked for that account.
4. Downgrade a paid account back to the default/Hacker plan through the
Stripe webhook flow.
5. Confirm `help_center` is disabled right after the downgrade fallback
is processed and the account can no longer access the Help Center.

This adds a draft status for Help Center locales so teams can prepare
localized content in the dashboard without exposing those locales in the
public portal switcher until they are ready to publish.
Fixes: https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/10412
Closes: https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/10412
## Why
Teams need a way to work on locale-specific Help Center content ahead of
launch. The public portal should only show ready locales, while the
admin dashboard should continue to expose every allowed locale for
ongoing article and category work.
## What this change does
- Adds `draft_locales` to portal config as a subset of `allowed_locales`
- Hides drafted locales from the public portal language switchers while
keeping direct locale URLs working
- Keeps drafted locales fully visible in the admin dashboard for article
and category management
- Adds locale actions to move an existing locale to draft, publish a
drafted locale, and keep the default locale protected from drafting
- Adds a status dropdown when creating a locale so new locales can be
created as `Published` or `Draft`
- Returns each admin locale with a `draft` flag so the locale UI can
reflect the public visibility state
## Validation
- Seed a portal with multiple locales, draft one locale, and confirm the
public portal switcher hides it while `/hc/:slug/:locale` still loads
directly
- In the admin dashboard, confirm drafted locales still appear in the
locale list and remain selectable for articles and categories
- Create a new locale with `Draft` status and confirm it stays out of
the public switcher until published
- Move an existing locale back and forth between `Published` and `Draft`
and confirm the public switcher updates accordingly

Fixes help center public article search so query responses stay compact
and locale-scoped. Whitespace-only queries are now treated as empty in
both the portal UI and the server-side search path, and search
suggestions stay aligned with the trimmed query.
Fixes: https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/10402
Closes: https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/10402
## Why
The public help center search endpoint reused the full article
serializer for query responses, which returned much more data than the
search suggestions UI needed. That made responses heavier than necessary
and also surfaced nested portal and category data that made the results
look cross-locale.
Whitespace-only searches could also still reach the backend search path,
and in Enterprise that meant embedding search could be invoked for a
blank query.
## What changed
- return a compact search-specific payload for article query responses
- keep the existing full article serializer for normal article listing
responses
- preserve current-locale search behavior for the portal search flow
- trim whitespace-only search terms on the client so they do not open
suggestions or trigger a request
- reuse the normalized query on the backend so whitespace-only requests
are treated as empty searches in both OSS and Enterprise paths
- pass the trimmed search term into suggestions so highlighting matches
the actual query being sent
- add request and frontend regression coverage for compact payloads,
locale scoping, and whitespace-only search behavior
## Validation
1. Open `/hc/:portal/:locale` in the public help center.
2. Enter only spaces in the search box and confirm suggestions do not
open.
3. Search for a real term and confirm suggestions appear.
4. Verify the results are limited to the active locale.
5. Click a suggestion and confirm it opens the correct article page.
6. Inspect the query response and confirm it returns the compact search
payload instead of the full article serializer.

# Pull Request Template
## Description
The Help Center sitemap endpoint (`/hc/:portal_slug/sitemap.xml`)
previously rendered a `<sitemapindex>` element while embedding article
URLs directly, which does not align with the sitemap specification.
This change fixes the structure by:
- Replacing `<sitemapindex>` with `<urlset>`
- Adding the required sitemap XML namespace
- Rendering each published article as a `<url>` entry with `<loc>` and
`<lastmod>`
This ensures the endpoint outputs a valid, self-contained sitemap
document.
Fixes#13334

- [ ] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
- [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing
functionality not to work as expected)
- [ ] This change requires a documentation update
## How Has This Been Tested?
- Updated the existing `portals_controller_spec.rb`
- Adjusted assertions to validate a `<urlset>` root element and the
sitemap XML namespace
- Verified that the sitemap returns only published article URLs
- Ran the updated RSpec controller specs locally

The UI displays only six articles, and this update introduces a per_page
parameter to control the number of articles returned per API call. The
value is capped between 1 and 100, with a default fallback if a lower
number is set.
This change is necessary due to high website traffic, where excessive
payloads are returned without adding value.
**Changes:**
- Add index to status, account_id, portal_id, views.
- Add per_page param in the API.
- Update the code in the frontend to fetch only 6
Fixes https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/9935
Fixes https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/8213
The articles were grouped by category, with locale being a derived
attribute from the category. If a category was deleted, the article
wouldn't appear on the dashboard. However, due to a bug, it would show
up in the uncategorized section on the public portal, leaving agents
unable to edit or update the article.
To address this issue, I've added a locale attribute directly to the
article. This attribute is automatically set from the category or the
portal's default locale if not supplied. The API parameters now use this
attribute to filter articles. As a result, the dashboard will display
articles even if they're not associated with a category, improving the
overall workflow.
**Main updates:**
- Add locale attribute to the Article model. Add db migration to back
fill the data based on the above logic.
- Add a new scope search_by_locale and use it instead of
search_by_category_locale.
- Update the ERB template to include the locale filter.
- Move from `joins` to `left_outer_joins` to include the articles with
no categories.

The `before_type_cast` method sometimes returns a string for
`message_type`, creating inconsistencies in different payloads. This
pull request will remove all `before_type_cast` usage and replace it
with `to_i` methods.

By applying pr-1 on a container div instead of directly on the image (which distorts it), it creates the intended padding effect without any image distortion.
