Hi

I’m unable to customize the text for the ‘choose optional tags for this topic’. It leads me to the standard ‘page not found’ page.

Is this a bug?

Thanks

I just tried on my localhost.  
It took a while to come up (which is _not_ all that unusual or unexpected - Windows VM)

No errors, but there was a  
“WARNING importing ‘addFlagProperty’ is deprecated, use the PluginAPI instead” message.

The message didn’t come up for the few others I tried.

I don’t know as that will be any help.

@neil - did you manage to have a look at this? Still coming up with the below.

Investigating this has revealed a problem…

First, the key you want to be editing is `admin_js.tagging.choose_for_topic`, not `js.tagging.choose_for_topic`.

Second, you can remove the discourse\_tagging plugin because it has been moved into core Discourse.

The reason the string is in `admin_js` is because we have been adding strings to the admin\_js section when we shouldn’t have. With the `admin_js.admin` section collapsed, the client.en.yml file looks like this:

Oops.
