If you add a # and select a relevant tag, the word is automatically converted to a link for the relevant tag in the Preview Pane, but this link is not appearing in the final ‘baked’ post in the forum
See here - code entered, preview pane shows bolded, working link - but not appearing in the actual topic posted (above)
(running 1.8.0 with Communiteq (formerly DiscourseHosting))
Can you repro this here or on try.discourse.org ? If it is a bug in 1.8 it won’t be fixed, because it is not security related.
This does appear to be a valid bug. To link to a tag you need ::tag at the end to avoid a namespace collision with categories. So linking to pr-welcome is #pr-welcome::tag.
With that in mind, linking to pr-welcome (#pr-welcome) works in preview but not once submitted.
I’ll note that using autocomplete when typing a tag adds ::tag automatically. This is only an issue when typing the tag “manually”.
呃……什么？
pr-welcome 作为一个标签是可以的。pr-welcome 也是可以的。

哦，我明白了，这是一个严重的回归问题。应该有人来检查一下！
“表扬”是一个类别，它没有“后缀”。只有标签需要附加 ::tag。
Oh right my bad #faq-material::tag entered from autocomplete, and #faq-material typed.
@tgxworld I really do not agree with this design. Like users and groups, tags and categories should share the same namespace.. the #blah:tag pattern should only be required for disambiguation.
Thanks both - sorry, time differences make timely conversations awkward.
I was not aware of the requirement for the ::tag - is this new?
It does work for autocomplete, but I had written these manually as tags were bottom of the original automcomplete list and it was just as easy to type. Now I know the correct process, I can change to use autocomplete more, but as I say, I was not aware of this before
thanks for looking into it
No - it’s been required since tags became mentionable in early 2016.
Would love to see this change!
