Question

Hello friends, I have a peculiar problem. Let me describe it first.

As mentioned in SupportPlugin, I have created a support web along with comments, support status and tagging support. It even has a WebTopicEditTemplate similar to this web. In the WebHome page, there's a form. This form is not a twiki form & is done using the standard HTML tags. The form's data is submitted to the save script with certain parameters such as topic, question, environment, taglist, onlynewtopic, onlywikiname, templatetopic and action_save.

The parameter of importance is taglist. Using

<select size="10" multiple="multiple" name="taglist"> 
%TAGME{tpaction="showalltags" format="<option value=\"$tag\">$tag</option>" separator=" "}% </select>

, the list of tags are now displayed as a list. Since the tpaction=tag ... doesn't allow multiple tags, I'm embedding

 <!-- %TAGME{tpaction="add" tag="tag1"}% -->

for each selected item in the "tag list".

Now whenever the page loads, a vote gets added automatically if the user has not voted already. How can this problem be prevented? Is there a way to add multiple tags to a topic in one shot?

Answer

You can't currently. But this would be a sensible feature request to TagMePlugin.

I have added the request, see Bugs:Item5153.

Alright. I will do some workaround until then :). Thanks.

Arthur, in how many days/months is this functionality expected in this plugin?

You can hire one of the TWiki consultants if this feature is time critical.
