Question about tag output

tags can be installed but they are not visible when viewed

https://www.svenbluege.de/demo/index.php/list/event/test3

 

The tags are displayed as a list

https://www.svenbluege.de/demo/index.php/tags?parent_id=1

I think such a list is not correct

I think tags should be displayed as Events - List

 

Your gallery is the highest quality

there is one more drawback

when loading an image with a file name that already exists, the image that was replaced

thanks

Hi, 

thank you for your input!

I use tags only for creation the opportunity to filter and create a navigation hierarchy. What would be the benefit of showing the assigned tags on an event/album page?

The tags-page simply shows a list of pages and is owned by the tag-component. I can't do much to add content here. 

Image upload: well... Event Gallery is file-based. Every file you upload is stored with its filename in the file system. If you upload a file with the same name, it gets overwritten. You're right, I did not implement a safety net here.

filtering by tags is good

but we have a gallery 

have to look through every folder with a tag to find 

it's long and boring

if there are album covers right away, it will be easier

as it is visually easier to search

we have a gallery =)

it is possible to display tags as albums?

 

Regarding security, in order not to lose the image, you can rename the file when loading

for example add a timestamp to the file name

 

thanks

My intention for using tags is only to filter events for a menu item. That they appear in the Joomla tag-component is just a side effect, and I don't have any influence on how they render those tags. Unfortunately, this is true for search results, too. 

Renaming a preexisting image sounds fair and has not impact on a batch upload. Maybe I couple this with a config option in the future. 

Kuper

but how to display the gallery, for example, in a new template, if it is not displayed ?

I'm not sure what you mean.

Usually, you start with a new menu item. Here is a page which uses a category list: https://www.svenbluege.de/demo/index.php/categories

You want to modify how "Events" are displayed within the Tags-component.

Right now, this is not possible since the necessary data is missing in the template. I'll add this to my list for investigation. With Joomla articles, this is already possible (see screenshot, the last entry is an article with an image). So, I would need to figure our if I can adapt the Event Gallery data for the tags component.
