Tagging System For Topics

[Mick.]

Vb,

I couldnt find the word "things" when hovering the tags in the language file.  Where is this hidden? lol 

I want to change it to "articles". 

[Ihmeliö]

Thanks for this feature, love it.

Is there any way to edit a tag? Some of the tags were added to our forum with CAPS LOCK on, and after that any subsequent tags with that word are also listed with CAPS. This only changes if I delete all of the occurencies of that particular tag.

I'd also like an ability to merge two tags, so that two different wordings of the same thing could be joined as one.

Also, it would be nice to be able to organize the word cloud so that it's in alphabetical order. I personally don't like it being sorted by the frequency, since that's already clear from word size. Maybe also the possibility to sort in random order, so that you don't always end up with the same list - might help in getting people to find new topics.

And then one bug report: When I click the tag listing page open, it lists topic starters by their user names, not their display names. User names are normally not viewable for non-admin users, and it's also a bit confusing, so a fix for this would be nice.


Is there some place for changing the options for this mod?

There isn't yet, the next release already has all 4 of these issues addressed (as well as icons similar to those posted by bluedevil)

I've given 3 options for tag cloud sorting in the admin panel: alphabetical, tag count, or random - and also the ability to control where the new images appear, if at all

Once I get more things finalised, I'll post some screenshots here

[Ihmeliö]

Wonderful, looking forward to that!

Hmm... I noticed that with bigger fonts, there's no clear space between some of the words. This also seems to cause problems with line breaking. Could this be fixed?

[Ihmeliö]

I noticed that there was duplicate instances of one particular tag. One was in CAPS, one was in smallcase letters. I tried removing both, checked that the tab listing didn't list them any more, and then added a new one with CAPS (since it's an abbreviation - appropriate to be in caps). However, it stays smallcase.

What to do?

[sharks]

I just need to add a permission setting to this tag mod, and i really hope someone will help me out with this. I am using SMF 1.1.12 with default theme.

I just want to add a permission setting to allow/deny membergroups from being able to see or use the tag system. Meaning, if i deny access to a membergroup (for example, Guests) then the Tags button at top of the forum menu should not appear and if the member has saved the direct link, then it should show an error.

Thanks to anyone who can help me to make the necessary code edits. The next major version is going to take a long time yet to come out, and i really need this new feature now to be able to keep the tagging system on my forum, as i do not want unauthorised membergroups from viewing and using the Tagging system.

wow... It's going to be the BEST MOD of this year with these options. Have a nice work! Thanks!

ps.: sorry for asking that I have some opinions.
- bigger fonts
- space between the tags
- and the last one: is it possible to select two tags to order the topics? If it would be... I would be more than happy.

[Ihmeliö]

It would be good if regular users could edit, or at least delete, the tags they have entered themselves. Is this possible?

Also, what about logging who has entered/deleted a particular tag?

Error in Package Installation
At least one error was encountered during a test installation of this package. It is strongly recommended that you do not continue with installation unless you know what you are doing, and have made a backup very recently. This error may be caused by a conflict between the package you're trying to install and another package you have already installed, an error in the package, a package which requires another package that you don't have installed yet, or a package designed for another version of SMF.

Install then do the failed operations manually.

Install then do the failed operations manually.

Thanks for your reply.

2 questions.

Qn1: To make it clear, you want me to modify the subs.php file as per the manual instruction?

Qn2:

Will I be able to auto uninstall if I want at later stage? Or I have to remove manually?

Advance. Thanks.

[vas]

in subs.php; the code which is to be indicated to be replaced is given as below

Code Select Expand

'permissions' => array(
'title' => $txt['edit_permissions'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=admin;area=permissions',
'show' => allowedTo('manage_permissions'),
'is_last' => true,
),

Where as I found the following code (as simple portal is installed in my forum)

Code Select Expand

'permissions' => array(
'title' => $txt['edit_permissions'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=admin;area=permissions',
'show' => allowedTo('manage_permissions'),
),
'portal' => array(
'title' => $txt['sp-adminCatTitle'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=admin;area=portalconfig',
'show' => allowedTo(array('sp_admin', 'sp_manage_settings')),
'is_last' => true,
),


I presume this difference is what makes the install to fail in subs.php, as I stated above,

During uninstall also the same subs.php fails. Is there a remedy that will eliminate this?

Thanks.

I installed in a test forum by manually editing subs.php and it works fine.

[vas]

Easy. Uninstall Simple Portal. Install Tagging System first and then install Simple Portal. Works without any error.

When U want to uninstall, uninstall Simple Portal and uninstall Tagging System. [Then, if you want, reinstall portal package]

[vas]

Can anyone lend me simple portal block for tag cloud. The one listed in the Simple Portal site produces only blank block. Thanks.

Thanks bluedevil. It works.

[vbgamer45]

Thanks bluedevel for the portal codes.

Thanks bluedevel for the portal codes.

No proble bro.   I happened to have these on my sites

[totaltutankoll]

Hi

Have I understood everything correctly that the simple portal messes up the installation of the tagging system but that I can run around this by uninstalling SP again install the tagging system and then reinstall SP? 

[vbgamer45]

That might be the case I would try that.
