Discourse 1.6 tagging issues

Hello,

We want to follow below structure in our discourse deployment. Currently we running it locally.
Parent cat -> Child cat -> tags

New tagging changes in Discourse 1.6 are very good except the case we encountered. Assume we have 2 categories ‘Manufacturer’ & ‘Honda’ with Group tags(honda, suzuki, corrola). Categories are configured as ‘Manufacturer’->‘Honda’ and ‘Honda’ category can use tag group ‘Honda Cars’. ‘Honda Cars’ group has following tags (Honda, City, Civic, Fit). I add a topic in ‘Honda’ category with tag ‘City’. Now from main landing page i first select ‘Manufacturer’, then select ‘Honda Cars’ and then select tag ‘City’ and it make url like this http://www.myforum.com/tags/c/manufacturer/honda-cars/city and don’t show any topic in listing. Even if i change parent category ‘Staff’ from first drop-down then it build url http://www.myforum.com/tags/c/staff/city. Am i missing any configuration or these are the issue with tagging system? Can you help me to fix this issue?

If i directly select tag ‘City’ from landing page without selecting any category(www.myforum.com) then it make url ‘http://www.myforum.com/tags/city’ and show topic in listing.

Junaid

You may need to upgrade to 1.7 beta if you are using tags and tag groups heavily, any other comments @neil?

I don’t follow how you selected “Honda Cars” (a tag group) as part of your filter, since that isn’t possible. Can I look at the site where this is happening?

Thanks for reply @codinghorror, I think 1.7 date is far though i will try it.

Hello @neil,

I have setup test site to try this case. Credentials are given below. There are 2 cases given below, case 1 in production mode is working fine for me now while it didn’t work for me on local. Case 2 still exist and you can try it. Thanks

Case 1 : Now from main landing page i first select ‘Manufacturer’, then select ‘Honda Cars’ and then select tag ‘City’ and it make url like this http://www.myforum.com/tags/c/manufacturer/honda-cars/city1 and don’t show any topic in listing.

Case 2 : If i change parent category ‘Staff’ from first drop-down then it build url http://www.myforum.com/tags/c/staff/city.

Ok I see the issue.

  1. Filter by categories and tag.

  1. Change category filter. Tag filter remains in the url.

I’ll look into it.
