chilihead Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Tagging ModeOpen: Users can use whatever tags they likeClosed: Users must choose from a specified set of tagsSo we have to choose open or closed system globally? I have some forums I want pre-defined tags in and others I want users to enter their own.Also the limitations should not be global either. The required numbers of tags, etc. This makes no sense unless I am missing something.
chilihead Posted May 5, 2015 Author Posted May 5, 2015 If I did a closed system what would happen to all the open tags people have already posted?Haven't upgraded yet but can't use the tag system until this is addressed, and we can do open and closed and not have to choose one globally.

If you have the closed system applied to a forum then you should be able to set individual tags to that forum.
chilihead Posted June 11, 2015 Author Posted June 11, 2015 It's not flexible at all and is useless if you need closed system with 1 tag for one forum because that would set it for all.
chilihead Posted November 18, 2015 Author Posted November 18, 2015 Hoping this can be improved so we don't need the mod. 4.2 maybe?
Paul.F Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 It is per forum. Go to your forum in the admin area, click on the Posting Settings, down the bottom is the tags.
chilihead Posted November 18, 2015 Author Posted November 18, 2015 The settings mentioned are global.
Paul.F Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Go to the forum itself, edit the forum. Then click the Posting settings tab
chilihead Posted November 18, 2015 Author Posted November 18, 2015 Those are not the settings in question. Open/Closed Min/Max.
Paul.F Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 They can be overwritten per forum if you choose. You may choose open/closed per forum
chilihead Posted November 18, 2015 Author Posted November 18, 2015 Unfortunately that is a global setting. If you can do that you must have the mod by @Ryan H..
Paul.F Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Ah. Ok. Now I understand what you are saying.

I hope so but if not, just go for the app, it will do everything you want and need, and it uses the system's tags so if you ever need to remove the app or it stops being supported, the tags still exist as they were intended.
PacmanDo Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Having this as an option in the core makes too much sense!!! Why isn't it part of the core? @Charles
