Have never used these before - but the client likes the tags. But I'm not sure how to configure the results page.

here is the results page from the demo --> link <--

scratching my head....

I've not used them much myself to be honest - we do have an article about it but not sure if it will be relevant to you

www.joomlabamboo.com/blog/how-to-joomla/tags-component-in-joomla-3

and a brief joomla.org article

docs.joomla.org/J3.2:How_To_Use_Content_Tags_in_Joomla!

My night's reading!

I have two newlifestyle build-outs in late production stages. Versatile template, and very stable.

Good luck with it

Let us know how you go (so you can tell me)

Cheers

right off the bat - the tutorial lists a tag component....but there isn't one in my dropdown. There IS one in global configuration.

Just thought I'd check by downloading the joomla.org file - its listed under components - second from bottom on a blank install

The global config is for settings

Not in my installation of newlifestyle / t3. I notice a post on the tutorial to the same effect. question is: where did it go?

What did you build the site from Joomla wise?

Cheers
Paul

the quickstart

What Joomla version are on now?

3.2.3

Right will need to get back to you on this one

should i open a ticket?

I need to talk to somebody brainier than me to see if this has cropped up before

On my own at the moment

Cheers

is there a css for stripping plugin tags, those things in {'s and }'s?

You could wrap them in a div and then hide that div using css

.divname {display: none}

Brainer folks have arrived

Could you open a ticket for the site - we do need phpmyadmin access

Cheers
Paul

should I try a clean reinstall of J323 first? copying down my insurance backup, now

Not sure if that will work - we need to update the sql for you

Having a backup is a great idea though

Cheers

After the db issue is fixed, there i will still have the first question - how to style the tags filter pages. It looks like Team J hasn;t thought about this aspect of at all. A tags page is going to be 100% custom, I think.

One wonders (or at least I do) whether a switch to K2 might be warranted. My trepidation is adding one more layer of complexity on a client who has been a good sport about training a couple folks to handle a decent size Joomla build.
