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](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 [https://forum.animalcrossingportal.com/tag/discussion](https://forum.animalcrossingportal.com/tag/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
