What's New and Different in Tags.App 2

  • Integration with core Movable Type tag engine
  • Tags can have spaces and are case sensitive
  • Tagging options and cloud display can be set from the MT interface in addition to the template tags
  • Display related tags in a tag search
  • Create interactive control for adding and removing controls
  • Documentation is online and searchable

Functional Tag Changes

When this plugin was initially released it handled the entry and management of tags in addition to visualization and search. Subsequently MT introduced this functionality to the products core. Unfortunately their implementation was entirely compatible with Tags.App. In getting those two tag sets in sync some tag behavior was modified in both.

  • MTTag now automatically wraps the tag name in a tag search link. Use MTTagName for the previous functionality.
  • The core tag MTTagRank becomes an alias of MTTagVolume.
  • The core tag MTTagSearchLink becomes an alias of MTTagLink generating a link to the Tags.App script according to the plugin settings as opposed to the MT search script.
  • MTEntryIfTagged, MTTags, MTTagCount, MTTagName and MTTagID are handled by Tags.App and should be backwards compatible with the core functionality.
