Tested on a live site of mine and a test setup (different server/install). So, confirmed on two setups.

**Settings that may be relevant:**  
Tags enabled  
TL4 set for tag setters (only admins can add tags on our site).  
10 posts needed to be approved for new members.

**Recreating the bug:**

1. TL0 starts topic
2. Admin goes to approve it
3. In the approval post setting, admin changes category, then adds tags (tags look like they saved)
4. Hits save
5. Hits approve

Then when I visit index/category, tags are nowhere to be seen. Have to edit the post again for them to appear. At first, I thought it was just my install, but I was able to recreate this on my developers’ test site.

Is this by design? Or a bug? Or am I doing something wrong?
