I’m having some issues with getting tags to show on new topics, apologies this has already been asked but i’ve had a read of some old posts and i’m still racking my brain trying to figure this out. When i go to make a new post: https://forum.animalcrossingportal.com I can’t reuse any tags i’ve created.
For example if I type in ‘discussion’ to reuse the tag, it won’t let me use it, just says not found, there’s no option for the already existent discussion tag but I can’t recreate it either because it already exists. Here’s all the tags I have, all within a single group:
I noticed if I make a new tag as of now, i can reuse them but any tags that already exist I can’t even edit or delete them…I went to /tags and clicked the tag and it just redirects to the tag page.
I also noticed if I go to Topics tagged discussion the direct path for the tag and then try and make a topic I can use it, but users aren’t going to do that as it’s not normal behaviour.
Any guidance would be much appreciated, I feel there’s either quite a few issues here or perhaps i’m not understanding how tags work
Oh i’m so stupid, I was configuring the tag groups thinking that was all that was required. I forgot you have to go to the category, then config and add them there. It’s all good now thanks!
I don’t think you’re stupid. Tag groups are very powerful, but also complicated, especially because the the configuration isn’t all in one place. I was struggling to clearly explain the problem, even, so I’m glad you knew what I meant.
I think it would help a lot if the tag group config page also listed the categories to which they applied. Ideally, let you configure those there too,[1]listing them[2] would be a big improvement.
