Davyc Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Is it possible in a future update to have closed tags per forum. For example if you have a movie and TV forum have a set of tags just for that forum that say whether a topic is about a movie or a TV show. The same could be applied to music, have closed tags for rock, reggae, folk, classical, etc. Have a closed tag system that is universal is not really a good idea as the wrong tags could be applied - or the list of tags could be huge. With thanks.
Adriano Faria Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 That is already a feature. Choose Closed system then edit the forum and add the specific tags in the tags field.
Davyc Posted February 19, 2019 Author Posted February 19, 2019 Oooohh! That was really not obvious in the tagging system - many thanks for pointing that out as it will save me a lot of work. I'm off to set them up now. Many thanks again
Ocean West Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 it's not ideal its all or nothing you can't have some forums open free form and others closed. So there is room for improvement.
Davyc Posted February 19, 2019 Author Posted February 19, 2019 I'm just happy that I can specify tags for each forum - I understand that may not be an ideal scenario for all admins, but for me it's just what I need. The only issue I have is that it's not made clear at the point of choosing open or closed as there is a field at that point to add tags, had it been made clear I would not have asked the question. But yeah, I agree there is a lot of room for improvement, particularly with prefixes, but I guess that is somewhere down the road lol.
kmk Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 I have some closed tags there, but I don't know why when open a topic all tags are applied automatically, then I have to delete it leaving which I want. I think should be like below logic order: Open topic 1. Place the topic title 2. Choose which tags need to applied (right now I have to choose which are not, if not do that all tags will be applied, the logic of open a topic is, which tags I want to add for that, specially from the user perspective) 3. Content Or I wrong?
