Tags don't persist when applied during topic editing due to unnoficial plugin

[JackALaing]

I am unable to apply tags to topics when editing the topic, only during topic creation. It looks like the new tags have applied, but then they disappear on refresh.

I have tested this across different categories, both private/public, with different tags, and with different users.

I don’t use any tag groups so I know this isn’t related to Adding tag to two or more groups breaks the tag

I’m on version 2.7.0.beta1 and I have the following plugins installed:

• docker_manager
• discourse-chat-integration
• discourse-policy
• discourse-assign
• discourse-custom-wizard
• discourse-fingerprint
• discourse-restricted-replies
• discourse-follow
• discourse-calendar
• discourse-styleguide
• discourse-solved
• discourse-shared-edits
• discourse-footnote
• discourse-checklist
• discourse-knowledge-explorer
• discourse-github
• discourse-anonymous-categories
• discourse-question-answer
• discourse-tickets
• discourse-canned-replies
• discourse-user-notes
• discourse-whos-online
• retort
• discourse-push-notifications
• discourse-multilingual
• discourse-translator

Can you try after removing unofficial plugins?

[JackALaing]

Will disabling them in the settings be sufficient?

[Falco]

No, it is not. Plugins can still load lots of code even when disabled.

[JackALaing]

I uninstalled all of the unofficial plugins and it fixed the issue.

I’ve reinstalled the unofficial ones I care about keeping and it still works, which narrows the culprit down to one of the following plugins: Custom Wizard, Fingerprint, Anonymous Categories, Multilingual. Anonymous Categories is currently flagged as a broken plugin so I assume it’s that.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
