Description
This update introduces a new feature that displays a "New Learner" message beneath usernames in discussion posts and comments for users identified as new learners. The feature helps learners and staff quickly recognize new participants, improving clarity and community interaction.
The implementation integrates backend API fields for learner status, with fallback logic to support legacy and edge cases. Core discussion components were updated to pass learner status data through the component tree, along with new hooks and test coverage to ensure consistent and reliable functionality.
Features
Added a visible “👋 Hi, I am a new learner” message below usernames in discussion posts and comments for new learners, using backend API fields and fallback heuristics.
Added a regular learner message for users who no longer qualify as new learners.
Created new hooks:
useLearnerStatus– encapsulates learner status logic and consumes API data.useIsNewLearner– determines whether a user qualifies as a new learner.Updated core components including
AuthorLabel,CommentHeader,Reply, andPostto receive and propagate a newpostDataprop containing learner status.Updated prop types and default props across affected components to support the new prop.
Added internationalization (i18n) support for the new learner and learner messages in
messages.js.Added comprehensive test coverage to verify correct rendering behavior for different user roles (staff, moderators, anonymous, retired, regular, and new learners).
