c9044f7acd recent-topics: Rename to "Recent conversations" in web-app and docs.
Replaces instances of "recent topics" in the web-app and documentation
to be "recent conversations".

Renames both `recent-topics.md` files in the help center to be
`recent-conversations.md` and updates/redirects links to new URL.

Does not update instances of "recent topics" in frontend code comments
and does not update the main overview changelog, for now.

Does not change case study text where "recent topics" was referenced
in a quote, but does change generic text references to be "recent
conversations".

64c31b7cb9 help: Rename "Add custom profile fields" -> "Custom profile fields".
Renames the help article on custom profile fields to reflect that
its content is not just about adding fields.

Adds a redirect from the old URL to the new URL and updates internal
links, linking to #add-a-custom-profile-field where appropriate.

Fixes #23170.

c6abb7bedf help: Restructure "Mastering the compose box" article.
This help center article should include more features rather than just
focusing on the "go to conversation" button. We should broaden and
restructure this page to cover other advanced features.

Refactors the "Go to conversation" section as step-by-step instructions,
and adds a `keyboard_tip`.

Adds new section "Toggle between Ctrl+Enter and Enter".
Deletes the "Enable Enter to send" help center article, and adds its
content as a new subheading in this section.
Updates existing links accordingly and adds a URL redirect.
Documents "Enable Control + Enter to send".
Tweaks intro paragraph of "Mastering the compose box".

b00c030791 help: Document "Import your settings" feature.

fe7d7b48db help-docs: Use <kbd> HTML elements for references to keyboard keys.
Updates references to keyboard keys in the help center docs to use
`<kbd>` HTML elements, which also means updating them to be as the
key would appear on a keyboard.

Previously, uppercase and lowercase letters were used to indicate
when/if the `Shift` key was being used, and even that was not
consistent throughout the documentation.

For CSS styling, adds a similar rule for `<kbd>` elements that is
used in `/static/styles/app_components.css`. And updates the CSS
class used in `/static/js/portico/help.js` for `adjust_mac_shortcuts`
accordingly.

Also, takes advantage of revising these pages for making small
updates for current help center documentation practices.

33a618d169 integrations: Add generic bot macro to relevant docs.
There are a handful of integration docs that instruct users to create
a bot and select the "Generic bot" type without using a helper macro.

and replaces all incomplete instructions with this macro.
Renames bot_types.png -> bot_types_incoming_webhook.png and updates
the image with a screenshot of the latest UI.

6b527dfa61 integrations: Add documentation for the event filtering system.
We create "event-filter-instruction.md" and add it to
"create-bot-construct-url.md". This allows the user to keep track of the
supported event types for most of the integrations that implement this
feature. Note that not all integrations use "create-bot-construct-url.md".

We also need to rename "function" to "view_function" to make this change
type-check.

This is relevant to #18392.

48d2783559 read_receipts: Add support for displaying read receipts.
Adds an API endpoint for accessing read receipts for other users, as
well as a modal UI for displaying that information.

Enables the previously merged privacy settings UI for managing whether
a user makes read receipts data available to other users.

Documentation is pending, and we'll likely want to link to the
documentation with help_settings_link once it is complete.

Fixes #3618.

f060d5c870 help-docs: Standardize on "corner of the app" instead of "...screen".
The phrasing "corner of the screen" wouldn't be accurate when the user
is doing a split screen or if the window or app is not taking up the
whole screen. Also, the use of "lower/upper" and "top/bottom" is not
consistent.

This standardizes on "corner of the app" and "bottom/top" when
referring to the location of app features on Desktop, Web, or Mobile.

0f7742ec4d help-docs: Improve "Logging in" and "Switching between organizations".
Improves step-by-step instructions for Desktop users by directing
users to the relevant items in the left sidebar or top menu bar
without using an obscure keyboard shortcut.

Adds tip macro with instructions for toggling the app's left sidebar
via the top menu bar.

Moves the proxy settings and custom certificate info into a warning
block instead of the main instructions flow given they are rarely
needed for Logging in.

Adds a Related Articles section to "Switching between organizations"
so that users can access the information for setting an organization
profile picture from there instead of an oddly placed warning block.

Also adds links to "Logging in", "Logging out", and "Deactivate your
account", and lists them in each other's Related articles sections.

6e924125ad api-docs: Remove include links in endpoint descriptions.
Two endpoints had linked markdown files that were used in
their general descriptions to add warning notes with important
information (`/create-user` and `/get-user-groups`).

This moves the warning content to be inline in the endpoint
descriptions so that the important content is in the OpenAPI
documentation and is still formatted to be rendered in a warning
block.

Deletes `can-create-users-only.md` and `api-members-only.md`
since they were only used for these two endpoint descriptions.

Also, cleans up the other instance of a inline warning block in
an endpoint description (`/fetch-api-key`).

Adds a new tab with the resolve/unresolve topic instructions for

Makes the instructions a little more explicit so that users know they
won't see the menu unless they press and hold the topic long enough.

Also improves the wording of the instructions to access the

that the whole area of a given topic, extending the whole width of
the screen, is the region they can press to act on that topic.
