* feat: fire user.signed_up, checkout.started, checkout.completed from the backend
These 3 PostHog conversion events only fired client-side (useTracking.ts),
so ad blockers and cut-short page unloads could drop them the same way
they were dropping the GTM/ad-platform click IDs. Moves the PostHog side
to the backend, same reliability rationale, same touchpoints already
established for the click-id work:
- user.signed_up: App\Actions\User\CreateUser, right after SyncUser is
dispatched, gated on !is_invite. auth_provider derived from
google_id/github_id presence, same values the frontend session-based
flow used.
- checkout.started: WelcomeController::storeReferralSource, alongside the
existing WelcomeEvent::Referral capture, right before checkout starts.
- checkout.completed: new TrackCheckoutCompleted job, dispatched from
StripeEventListener::handleSubscriptionCreated (webhook-driven — more
reliable than the old frontend flow, which depended on the user staying
on billing/Processing.vue). Conversion value/currency/transaction_id
read from the subscription webhook payload; transaction_id is the
Stripe subscription id rather than the old Checkout Session id.
Two new enums (UserEvent, CheckoutEvent) follow the existing per-domain
PostHog event enum convention (WelcomeEvent, BillingEvent, PostEvent).
useTracking.ts keeps its GTM dataLayer pushes (untouched, separate
concern) and drops only the captureEvent(...) calls for these 3 events —
PostHog already had CreateUser/WelcomeController/StripeEventListener as
established backend touchpoints, so this reuses them instead of adding
new infrastructure.
* chore: remove now-dead GTM dataLayer pushes from useTracking.ts
All 3 conversion events (sign_up, begin_checkout, purchase) now go to
PostHog exclusively from the backend, and PostHog is the single source
feeding Meta/Google/LinkedIn/etc ad destinations (not GTM). The
dataLayer.push(...) calls in useTracking.ts had no consumer left, so the
composable is now fully dead — deleted, along with its 3 call sites.
Each call site's surrounding scaffolding that existed only to support the
tracking call was simplified alongside it: ReferralSource.vue's submit()
no longer needs the onStart/onError/onHttpException/onFinish dance (that
was only there to gate trackBeginCheckout), and Processing.vue's
completePurchase() no longer reads auth.plan just to pass it to
trackPurchase().
datalayer.ts is untouched — it only pushes context variables (user name/
email, account/workspace name) that Crisp reads, not events.
* feat: split checkout.completed into trial.started / checkout.completed / trial.converted
checkout.completed used to fire on every customer.subscription.created
regardless of the resulting status, conflating two different business
events: a card-required trial starting (status trialing, no charge yet)
and an immediate paid subscription starting (status active — first-month
coupon or no trial). These are now separate PostHog events:
- trial.started: subscription created with status trialing. No
conversion_value (nothing has been charged) — carries trial_ends_at
instead.
- checkout.completed: subscription created with status active (coupon or
immediate full-price checkout) — unchanged behavior, still carries
conversion_value/currency/transaction_id.
- trial.converted (new): the trial's first successful charge, detected on
customer.subscription.updated via Stripe's own previous_attributes.status
transitioning from trialing to active. This is the Stripe-recommended way
to detect what changed in an .updated webhook, and doesn't depend on our
own DB write ordering — Cashier's WebhookController dispatches
WebhookReceived before it syncs the local subscription row, so trusting
our own stripe_status here would be fragile.
TrackCheckoutCompleted and the new TrackTrialConverted share their
plan/interval/persona/conversion_* property computation via
App\Support\StripeSubscriptionConversion (same shape, two different
moments in the billing lifecycle) instead of duplicating it.
Deliberately out of scope per product decision: trial-expired-without-
converting tracking (signups minus conversions already gives that number),
and the async-payment-method incomplete status edge case (card/debit only,
Stripe Checkout resolves 3DS inline before redirecting back — incomplete
essentially can't happen in this flow).
* refactor: derive auth_provider from the created User model, not the input array
$user already has google_id/github_id populated (they were passed straight
into User::create() a few lines above), so re-reading them from $data was
redundant — same information, extra indirection.
* fix: OAuth signup silently drops pending invites and bypasses the self-hosted registration gate
Found while reviewing why CreateUser's `! $isInviteRegistration` PostHog
gate never actually excluded anyone via Google/GitHub — because is_invite
was always false for OAuth registrations, regardless of whether the
person arrived from an invite link. Two real, pre-existing bugs:
1. SocialLogin.vue's Google/GitHub buttons linked to the OAuth redirect
routes with no query params at all — invite, redirect and email were
silently dropped the moment someone clicked "Sign up with Google"
instead of using the email form. The person got a brand-new
independent account + workspace instead of joining the inviter's
account; the invite itself sat unaccepted with zero feedback.
2. /auth/google/redirect and /auth/github/redirect were never wrapped in
the `registration.enabled` middleware that gates /register in
self-hosted mode — so self-hosted installs could be signed up into via
OAuth with no invite at all, bypassing the intended lock.
Fix:
- New PreservesInviteRedirect trait carries `invite`/`redirect` across the
OAuth round-trip via session (PreservesAttributionParameters' pattern,
but kept separate since this isn't marketing data).
- SocialLogin.vue now forwards `redirect`/`invite` from its parent page
onto the Google/GitHub links; Register.vue and Login.vue pass their
props through.
- registerNewUser() now passes the same `is_invite` semantics
RegisterRequest already uses for the email flow, and both
registerNewUser()/loginExistingUser() honor the pending redirect (same
target AcceptInvite.vue already sends the email flow to), so accepting
via OAuth now lands back on the invite page authenticated, exactly like
email/password does — no auto-accept, same explicit-consent UX.
- The self-hosted gate can only be enforced in registerNewUser() (after
the callback resolves an identity) since /redirect is shared with
login and can't tell new vs. returning users apart beforehand.
New App\Models\Invite::fromId() (safe UUID-checked lookup) and
App\Support\SafeInternalRedirect (same-app-path-only check) replace
duplicated inline logic in RegisterRequest, RegisteredUserController and
AuthenticatedSessionController, and are now shared with the OAuth path
too.
* refactor: replace client-supplied redirect param with server-resolved invite redirect
Never trust a redirect URL from the client. Login/register/OAuth now only
accept an invite id (already validated via Invite::fromId()) and derive the
return-to-invite route server-side, eliminating the open-redirect surface
instead of validating around it.
* refactor: use Request::string() for invite id, trim comments
Str::isNotEmpty()/toString() replace manual is_string/empty checks.
Also cut oversized inline comments down to one line each.
* refactor: tighten Invite::fromId, drop redundant is_string check
* test: cover GitHub invite acceptance and self-hosted gate scenarios
Mirrors the existing Google coverage — GitHubController has the same
invite-completion and self-hosted-gate logic but only Google had tests for it.
* refactor: fold null-account check into owner_id guard via nullsafe operator
* refactor: dedupe Stripe conversion tracking jobs and properties
TrackCheckoutCompleted, TrackTrialStarted, and TrackTrialConverted shared
near-identical boilerplate (guard clause, capture call, tries/timeout).
Extracted AbstractTrackStripeSubscriptionEvent so each job only declares its
event name and properties. StripeSubscriptionConversion now exposes
baseProperties() (plan_name/interval/persona) shared by all three, with
propertiesFor() adding conversion_* on top for the two charge-backed events.
* refactor: extract named status helpers in StripeEventListener
currentStatus()/wasTrialing()/isNowActive() replace inline data_get()
comparisons in trackSubscriptionStart() and trackTrialConversion().
* refactor: drop redundant persona from Stripe PostHog event properties
Persona is already set as a person property via identify() during
onboarding, so it is joinable on every event without repeating it —
sending it again on every billing capture was dead weight.
* refactor: drop redundant plan property in TrackBilling
PostHogService::capture() already injects 'plan' from $account when an
account is passed — the manual key was silently overwritten by the
identical value.
* feat: log PostHog payloads to laravel.log in local environment
Lets capture()/identify()/groupIdentify() be verified from laravel.log
during local testing (e.g. signup, invite flows) without a real PostHog
API key configured. Logging is independent of isEnabled() — the actual
dispatch to PostHog stays gated on it as before.
* fix: cold-review pass — dead code, ordering bug, missing test coverage
- Fire checkout.started only after the price-ID guard, not before it, so a
misconfigured plan can't record a phantom checkout.started for a checkout
that never starts (WelcomeController).
- Reorder OAuth registerNewUser() so the destructive session pull of
attribution parameters happens after the self-hosted invite gate, not
before — a rejected attempt no longer discards UTM/click-id attribution
(GoogleController, GitHubController).
- Delete the SignupSuccess page/controller/route entirely: it only ever
displayed a 5s cosmetic transition before redirecting home, its tracking
call was already removed, and app.calendar's own middleware handles
onboarding redirects regardless of entry point. The 3 post-registration
redirects now go straight to app.welcome (was silently dropped to
app.home in an earlier pass of this cleanup — welcome is correct, that
was the whole point of the intermediate page).
- Remove dead code left behind by the useTracking.ts removal: unused
persona/conversion props (and the Stripe API call in BillingController
that only existed to populate them), unused auth_provider session flash
across 3 controllers, unused captureEvent() export in posthog.ts, and
unused RegisterRequest::isInviteRegistration().
- Add missing test coverage: login with a valid/unknown invite param
(AuthenticatedSessionController's invite-redirect branch had zero
coverage), and a regression test locking in the checkout.started
ordering fix.
* fix: second cold-review pass — invite email mismatch, stale session leak, null interval bug
- Reject OAuth registration (Google/GitHub) when the invite's email doesn't
match the authenticated provider account's email, mirroring the check
RegisterRequest already enforces for the web form. Previously an invite
for one email could be completed by signing in with a different Google/
GitHub account, leaving a permanently workspace-less orphaned account
(AcceptInvite's WrongEmail path never runs the shell-account cleanup,
since that only fires on Result::Accepted).
- Fix PreservesInvite::storeInvite() to always overwrite the session value
(matching PreservesAttributionParameters, which it claimed to mirror but
didn't). It previously only wrote when the invite param was present,
so a stale invite id from an aborted OAuth attempt could leak into a
later, unrelated login/registration in the same session.
- Fix StripeSubscriptionConversion::baseProperties() mislabeling a
conversion as 'yearly' when both the webhook price id and the plan's
stripe_yearly_price_id are null (null === null) — now requires the plan
price id to be non-null before comparing, matching the equivalent guard
in App\Support\BillingCycle::intervalMonths().
- Remove the fully dead fromCheckout/Cache::add mechanism in
BillingController::processing() — its only consumer (the frontend
trackPurchase call) was already deleted earlier in this PR.
- Drop the unused owner eager-load in AbstractTrackStripeSubscriptionEvent
and TrackBilling — neither reads $account->owner, only owner_id.
* fix: normalize invite email casing at creation; resolve PostHogService via container
- CreateInvite::execute() now lowercases the invite email before storing it.
Invite acceptance/decline/registration all compare it verbatim against
User.email (itself always lowercase), so a mismatched-case invite created
before this fix could otherwise never be accepted by its own recipient.
- CreateUser::execute() resolves PostHogService from the container instead
of `new PostHogService`, matching the DI pattern used by every other
PostHog call site added in this PR.
* fix: validate self-hosted invites against the DB; enforce OAuth provider toggles server-side; count past_due recovery as a trial conversion
- EnsureRegistrationEnabled, GoogleController, and GitHubController now
require the invite param to resolve to a real Invite (Invite::fromId())
instead of just checking presence. Previously any random string/UUID
satisfied the self-hosted "invite required" gate and produced a fully
functional account with its own workspace, defeating the restriction
entirely.
- google_auth_enabled/github_auth_enabled were only ever read on the
frontend to show/hide the login button — the actual OAuth routes
(GoogleController/GitHubController::redirect(), and the settings
connect-provider endpoint) had no backend check, so a disabled provider
could still be used end-to-end by hitting the URL directly. Both are now
gated with abort_unless(..., 404). The settings Authentication page also
stops rendering a "Connect" button for a disabled, not-yet-connected
provider.
- StripeEventListener::trackTrialConversion now also fires trial.converted
on a past_due -> active recovery (a trial's first charge attempt failing
and then succeeding on retry), not just the immediate trialing -> active
transition. Guarded by trial_end being set so a long-time paying
customer's unrelated payment-method recovery is never miscounted as a
trial conversion.
* refactor: merge the two connectProvider abort_unless checks into one
* refactor: centralize social auth providers in a SocialAuthProvider enum
google/github were each hand-checked against config("trypost.{provider}_auth_enabled")
independently in GoogleController, GitHubController, AuthenticationController
(3 different shapes: hardcoded config key, in_array against a private const
array, and a duplicated string list for labels), plus a fourth copy of the
enabled flags in HandleInertiaRequests. Adding a provider meant touching all
of them by hand.
App\Enums\Auth\SocialAuthProvider is now the single source of truth: cases()
replaces the PROVIDERS const array everywhere it was iterated, label()
replaces the hand-written label map, and isEnabled() replaces every direct
config() call. AuthenticationController::connectProvider() collapses its two
abort_unless checks into one via tryFrom()?->isEnabled().
* refactor: add User::isConnectedTo() and drop the manual foreach in canDisconnect()
The same "{$provider}_id" dynamic-property pattern was hand-written in three
places in AuthenticationController (disconnectProvider's column lookup,
getConnectedAccounts' connected flag, canDisconnect's loop). User::isConnectedTo()
centralizes it, and canDisconnect() now reads as a single collection pipeline
("is there some other connected provider or a password") instead of a
counter-then-compare loop. disconnectProvider() also switches to the
already-resolved SocialAuthProvider throughout instead of re-deriving from
the raw string, and its flash message now uses ->label() instead of
ucfirst($provider) (which mis-cased "github" as "Github" instead of "GitHub").
* refactor: remove the fixed 5s post-checkout redirect delay
REDIRECT_DELAY_MS existed to give a client-side PostHog/ad-pixel capture
call time to flush before navigating away. That call was removed earlier in
this PR (checkout.completed now fires from the Stripe webhook, server-side,
independent of this page), so the delay had nothing left to wait for —
navigate immediately once the poll confirms subscriptionActive.
* refactor: extract SocialProvider type instead of repeating the 'google' | 'github' union
* fix: Login.vue never displayed session-flashed email errors
GoogleController/GitHubController flash OAuth failures (wrong invite email,
GitHub email unavailable) via redirect()->route('login')->withErrors([...]).
That lands as page.props.errors (Inertia's page-level error bag), not as
the <Form> component's own local submission errors — so the InputError
bound to errors.email never showed it, silently swallowing the redirect's
whole point. Falls back to usePageErrors() (already used elsewhere in the
app for this exact scenario) when the form's own errors are empty.
* test: add a browser test for the Login.vue flashed-error display fix
Pest feature tests can only assert session state, not what actually renders
— this drives a real browser through the OAuth invite-email-mismatch
redirect and asserts the error text is visible on /login. Confirmed it
fails without the Login.vue fix (assertSee fails at the expected point)
and passes with it restored.
* fix: PostHog debug logging silently skipped by redundant isEnabled() pre-checks
signup, trial, and billing events never reached PostHogService::capture()
locally because CreateUser and StripeEventListener short-circuited on
isEnabled() before the local-logging path in capture() could run. Added
shouldTrack() (isEnabled() || local environment) and applied it at every
dispatch/handle guard in the chain, while the real API call in SendEvent
stays gated on isEnabled() alone so production behavior is unchanged.
* fix: correctly guard past_due trial-conversion recovery against a later unrelated payment retry
convertedFromTrial() used trial_end being non-null to detect a past_due ->
active recovery as a trial conversion, but Stripe never clears trial_end
once set, so the guard could never actually exclude a long-time paying
customer's unrelated card-decline recovery months later — it would fire
trial.converted again, double-counting conversion_value. Now compares the
subscription item's current_period_start against trial_end, which only
match for the trial's own first billing period.
Also reverts the CreateInvite.php Str::lower() normalization added earlier
in this branch — invite emails are stored and compared as submitted, with
no manual casing normalization anywhere.
Adds a diagnostic log in trackTrialConversion() (unconditional, not gated
on shouldTrack()) to verify this against a real Stripe webhook payload via
a test-clock walkthrough.
* fix: don't fire checkout.started before the Stripe checkout session actually exists; drop diagnostic logging
WelcomeController::storeReferralSource captured checkout.started before
calling StartSubscriptionCheckout::redirect(), so a failure creating the
Stripe session (e.g. the coupon/promo-code conflict ConfigureSubscription
Checkout throws on, or any Stripe API error) still left a false-positive
conversion event in PostHog. redirect() now runs first; the capture only
fires once the checkout session was actually created.
Also removes the unconditional Log::info() added to trackTrialConversion()
for the manual Stripe test-clock verification — the current_period_start
fix it was added to confirm has now been validated against a real webhook
payload, so it's no longer needed and shouldn't keep logging on every
production subscription.updated event.
* refactor: centralize OAuth invite-registration validation in PreservesInvite
GoogleController and GitHubController each duplicated the same self-hosted
registration gate and invite-email-mismatch check verbatim. Moved both into
resolveInviteForRegistration() and inviteEmailMismatchRedirect() on the
shared PreservesInvite trait so a future OAuth provider (or an edit to one
controller) can't silently drift from the other on these security-relevant
checks.
Self-hosted installs (SELF_HOSTED=true, the default) now close /register
to the public. Workspace invites still work — the AcceptInvite page
links into /register with ?invite={id}, the middleware persists that
into the session, and POST /register passes through.
- EnsureRegistrationEnabled middleware gates GET/POST /register.
Accepts ?invite=… (URL) or pending_invite_id (session) as the pass.
- RegisteredUserController::store clears the marker after signup.
- AcceptInvite.vue passes invite.id in the register link's query string.
- Login.vue hides the "Sign up" link when self_hosted.
- UserSeeder bootstraps a single admin (admin@trypost.it / password).
Idempotent; not wired into DatabaseSeeder — operator runs
`php artisan db:seed --class=UserSeeder` per the install docs.
- Tests cover both flag values for every changed surface.
Docs PR: see trypost-docs self-hosting/installation.mdx step 3.
Drops the dedicated /settings/authentication/providers/{provider}/callback
route added in the previous refactor — registering a second callback URL
in each OAuth app is more ops cost than the trade is worth.
Back to one callback URL per provider, with a small `Auth::check()`
branch in the auth controllers' callbacks. The check is safe because
the redirects that initiate the round-trip enforce the right
middleware (signup/login is `guest`-only, connect is `auth`-only),
so the auth state at callback time matches the flow's intent.
Splits the OAuth connect flow off entirely from signup/login so each
route has a single responsibility.
- routes/auth.php returns to its original state — redirect + callback
both back inside the `guest` group.
- routes/app.php gains a paired callback route at
/settings/authentication/providers/{provider}/callback.
- AuthenticationController::connectProvider /
connectProviderCallback override Socialite's redirectUrl so the
round-trip stays on the connect-flow URL. The Auth::check() branch
in the auth controllers is gone.
The OAuth apps in Google Cloud and GitHub Developer Settings need the
new callback URL registered alongside the existing one — documented in
.env.example.
The Connect button on /settings/authentication pointed at the
auth.{provider}.redirect routes that live behind `guest` middleware,
so authenticated users were bounced to /app/home before reaching
Socialite. The OAuth callback also needed to handle two flows
(signup/login vs link to current user) but had no branch for the
second case — meaning a different-email GitHub account would have
been registered as a new user, logging the original session out.
Splits the flows by intent:
- New `app.authentication.connect-provider` route in the auth group,
handled by the settings controller (where it sits next to
disconnect-provider). Replaces the OAuth signup link as the
Connect button's target.
- Auth callbacks moved out of the guest group (still one URL per
provider, since OAuth apps only register one) and gain a single
Auth::check() branch that calls connectToCurrentUser().
- connectToCurrentUser() rejects if the provider id already belongs
to a different user; otherwise sets it on the current user and
redirects back to settings with a flash message.
Persists marketing attribution and registration metadata for new users
across the three signup paths (email, Google, GitHub):
- 5 utm_* columns + registration_ip on the users table
- PreservesUtmParameters trait stores incoming utm_* query params on
the register/redirect GET, retrieves them on the POST/callback —
surviving the OAuth round-trip via session
- request()->ip() captured at the controller layer
Adds GitHub as a second OAuth provider:
- GitHubController mirroring the Google one (now renamed from
SocialLoginController for symmetry)
- Settings → Authentication can connect/disconnect GitHub like Google
- Single SocialLogin.vue component replaces the per-provider buttons
on Login/Register, rendering each enabled provider plus a single
"or continue with" divider
UserFactory gains defaults for the new nullable columns so model
strict-mode access in tests doesn't trip.
- Extract business logic from controllers into Action classes:
Post/, Workspace/, Hashtag/, Label/, Invite/, ApiKey/
- Create subdomain routing: app.trypost.test (Inertia dashboard),
api.trypost.test (REST API with token auth)
- Add ApiToken model with tp_ prefix, token_lookup/hash auth
- Add AuthenticateApiToken middleware for API authentication
- Create Api controllers with JSON Resources for all entities
- Create App controllers that use Actions + Inertia responses
- Organize Form Requests into Api/ and App/ directories
- Add api_tokens migration
- Update all route names with app. prefix
- Update all tests to use new route names (684 passing)
