Hello,

Is there any way to use Joomla tags as a column type in TF Content? I would like my records include tags, so Users can click on them to list other TF Content records with the same tag.

Thank you for your time

I created a new column in TF Content, in field type I chose SubformThen I created an XML subform with the field type: tagsAnd uploaded it to /libraries/techfry/forms/content/tags.xml

This allowed me to add a tag to a record, but when I tried to submit the record I received an error1146 Table 'cleunited_joom759.josub_tfc_' doesn't exist

Maybe there's another method to include Joomla tags in TF Content records?

I was hoping to buy TF Content, but if there isn't a way to us Joomla tags as a column type, I need to find another solution. Can I get an answer from one of the developers, please? Thank you for your time.

Hello

We have forwarded this request to the development team. A new tags field is in the development.

Meanwhile you can try using SQL field type. 

Awesome -- thank you TF team!

Sorry to bother again. I can't find documentation on using the SQL field type to allow tags.

In Column > Field Options > Field Settings

I have set the field Type to Sql

Below that, under Field Settings there are the following fields:

Which. if any, paramters do I need to add to these fields to invoke Tags? Thank you for your time

Hi again, is there doumentation for configuring these Field Settings for Joomla Tags when the column field type is set to SQL:

Options

Select

From

Where

Group By

Order By

Key Field

Value Field

For displaying Joomla tags, you can enter following:

Select: id,title

From: #__tags

Order By: title ASC

Key Field: id

Value Field: title

Header: Select Tag or anything

I tried these settings, when I navigate to the "TF Content > Create Record" menu item, I recieve the following page error:

Table 'cleunited_joom759.josub_josub_tags' doesn't exist

Do you know if this is a bug, or if I am missing parameters/values in my configuration?

Is there a time estimate on when the new tag field will be ready?

Thank you for your time!

Hi, any update on this?

The fact that the error says "josub_josub_tags" suggests a PHP file is repeating the variable for table prefix (josub_)

And if it was corrected, the component would be able to locate and display data from "josub_tags"

I can make this change myself if you can tell me which file/line needs to be updated.

Any help is appreciated.
