- Status: Duplicate
I recall someone from IPS saying this was a bug when I casually mentioned it a while ago, so just wanted to formalise it here in case it's been forgotten.
It seems that using the 'Copy to Database' function on a forum topic does not result in that topic dropping the tags assigned to it, leading to duplication of content on the Tag Pages. Below is an image from the 'Sonic News' tag page I created, as well as an example of this issue in play.
^ The entry on the right in the image above is the topic I originally posted in the forum, and the entry on the left is the Pages record I created from that topic by using the 'Copy to Database' feature. Strangely, it seems that the image area of the entry on the right is also not clickable (the auto-generated orange image), almost as if a hyperlink tag has been dropped from it (probably not much of an issue given that this entry shouldn't be visible in the first place, but I figured it was worth bringing up).
^ Heading to the original forum topic shows a sync'd tag with the Pages record, which is causing the duplication... but because of how IPS works with sync'd content, now I cannot edit this topic nor the tags assigned to it in order to remove it myself.
