Putting in a request to add a couple QOL improvements to the budding Tag pages, as I absolutely love them.

Pagination for Tag Pages

I think it would be great for users to remain on the Tag pages experience when browsing all tagged content. At present, you have to click a 'View all' link to see any further entries, and that page... is just a Search results page that doesn't look in keeping with the sleek new UI of V5. I would much prefer a paginated experience for tagged content instead, with each page offering the same grid-based look and feel as the main Tag page.

Permanent Placement

During my time with the Alphas and Betas, it seems that entries are only displayed on their respective Tag pages for a limited time (not sure what the algorithm for it is), but it would be good for Tag pages to serve as more of a permanent archive of tagged content, rather than just an 'of the moment' or 'featured' section of the site. Kind of ties in with the previous improvement suggestion, as the only way to discover 'older' tagged content is to go through the 'View All' link and I don't like the design of that. :)

Include Content Type in 'Recent Content' Tab

Small thing, but it might be cool to include an indicator of the type of content displayed in the 'Recent Content' tab. I've mocked up a design below how it could look like, but I'm sure Ehren could do a much better job! :)

Tweak the Headings on Tag Pages

I know this is something I could figure out with custom CSS, but out of the box the Tag page headings look a little strange, with too much padding/margins within the container if no headline has been given to a Tag. I can imagine, on my own community, that I will have a number of "featured" Tag pages where I will go to trouble of adding descriptions and headlines etc to the Tag page, but I can also imagine creating many more Tags where I will not bother/have the time to do that (i.e. I might create some general taxonomy to assist with database categorisation). So on Tag pages where I won't add any additional information beyond the Tag name/slug, it'd be good to tighten up the design of that a little bit.

That's all I can think of at the moment - thanks for reading!

These are great suggestions, thank you!

With regard to permanent placement - can you please post a bug report if this happens again? Items should never be losing their tags unless they were intentionally removed.

  • Management

I agree with the pagination. I was never overly happy with the "view all" approach but time constraints meant it was a compromise. I'm glad you're enjoying them and using them positively in your community though!
