IWG Faster Tagging

Tag your posts faster

The original postpage has some disadvantages for tagging your posts. The major one: you can’t see all your existing tags to choose some of them. If you are typing into the add-tag field, after the first two chars the auto tag suggestions starts to give you a list with matching tags. This can slow down your client and server, because on every typed char a server request for auto-complete is running.

“IWG Faster Tagging” would help you, to tag your post better and faster. if you are interested - here is the complete featurelist.

Features

  • Show all your tags in alphabetically order as buttons on every post page
  • supports also tag-names with ‘ and ” (new in version 1.1.0)
  • To choose a tag, only a simple click on it is needed
  • All assigned tags are listed in alphabetically order. If you add or remove one or more tags, the tags will be automatically reordered for you
  • An administrator-option to switching off the auto-tag-complete (also called auto tag suggestion) on the whole WordPress-Blog

Other Plugins you need

No other plugins are needed.

Download and Installation

  1. Download the “IWG Faster Tagging” Plugin
  2. Unzip the downloaded file and copy all included files and the directory in your plugin-directory (wp-content/plugins)
  3. After this step you should have in your plugin-directory a file iwg_faster_tagging.php and a directory iwg_faster_tagging_stuff. The directory iwg_faster_tagging_stuff holds the additional stuff, like languages, javascript and styles. If you don’t have this layout, the plugin will not work.
  4. Activate the Plugin at your WordPress “Plugins”-Tab
  5. Ready!

For WPMU do the same steps in wp-content/mu-plugins. An extra activation isn’t needed here.

Update from 1.0.0 to 1.1.0

Important note: Auto-update isn’t recommended for this update, because the directory with languages, css and so on is renamed from iwg_faster_tagging to iwg_faster_tagging_stuff!

Remove all old parts from the plugin: iwg_faster_tagging.php and the directory iwg_faster_tagging. Then proceed with normal installation, please.

    I have no idea why, but it’s not working for me. I activate the plugin, it shows up in options, but the buttons don’t show up under tags in new posts. Please help.

    Thanks for this plugin. Would be great if there was a way to edit the tags? For the ones I misspelled or want to capitalize… Thanks

    Hi Thomas,

    Would you please be kind enough to answer my previous question? Will you upgrade this plugin to work with 2.8 (well, 2.8.1 now)?

    If not, would you mind that we borrow your original basic code and upgrade it ourselves? (giving you partial credit of course)

    Cheers,
    Gene

    Hi,

    It seems to be a very handy plugin and exactly what I want. But found out that it does not work in 2.8.1. Are you planning on upgrading soon? Or like Gene says, can I edit your code to make it work for me?

    Thanks,
    bipul
