Apologies for asking this when the latest trunk does have tags - I can
only see my 4.0-dev box at home (and I've not figured out how to make
the frontpage work on trunk there yet).

When I enter tags, I see that it offers me tag-completion. Is that
shared between blogs?

Is there a theme that supports tags yet?

I'm not sure what you mean by "making URLs work for the resulting tag list".

If you explain further maybe I could offer a suggestion.

Another tag question -- site-wide

[George Frink <so...@southernconnections.com>]

Site-wide tag aggregation was easy to implement, applying existing  
Velocity as documented in the template use guid.
I may be overlooking the obvious, but making URLs work for the  
resulting tag list has me buffaloed.
Judging from Dave's ApacheCon presentation, I'm not going to be able  
to cobble it together from Roller 3.1 Velocity and if I want it best  
pen some Java etc ... for that purpose.
Glad to do what I need to. Just double checking.
Thanks.

BTW, Roller 3.1 will be the first release to support tags.

I just did a little test and determined that no, tag-completion only
considers the tags in your blog.


> Is there a theme that supports tags yet?

No and we decided to leave out a tags macro too. Here's what I use to
display the tags cloud on my blog:

          #set($mytags = $model.weblog.getPopularTags(-1, 100))
          #foreach ($tag in $mytags)
              #if ($tag.count > 4)
              <a class="tag s${tag.intensity}" href="$url.tag($tag.name)"
                  title="$tag.count">$tag.name</a>
              #end
          #end
