Tags are not searched if not enabled

I disabled tags in my profile (mainly because they appear on the right side of boards and take up too much space, although that actually helps with my 800x600 issue, which still isn't resolved 😄 ). I did enable them shortly, though, to mark a specific post. When I tried searching for the tag, though, I couldn't find it and I had to enable tagging to find it.

 

I do partially understand the logic for something like this, but I don't think it really makes sense here.

I have not verified this report but if true I side with Yair on this one. The tags should be included in the search to help trim down the repitition of Qs.

I agree.  A workaround is to leave tagging enabled, but move the tag cloud on the board pages to the bottom of the page so that it doesn't decrease the page width further - I described how to do this here.

 

Thanks,

That's a reasonable workaround, assuming that having tags enabled will not cause any performance or stability issue, thanks.

 

Why isn't that option in the Tagging tab? At least as another copy. I looked for it there and since I didn't see it I figured it doesn't exist.

 

P.S. I also think the new editor pretty much sucks. The only thing I noticed about it which is worth the headaches is that it doesn't lose attachments when previewing.

As another minor bug, I had two tabs open at the same time with reply windows and when I tried to post I got the error window. Clicking the button to go one page back copied the subject and text from the other tab and had I not noticed it I would have posted the messages to the wrong threads. It looks like its buffer doesn't really know how to handle multiple instances at the same time very well.
