Mid-term evaluation summary
Tags
Written by Jacek Zielinski   

I would like to announce first part of JTags project has successfully come to the end I learned a lot, got to know few tricks to simplify working with Joomla! To sum up, what have been done:

  • component front-end: here user can see the most frequent tags (based on this, i will create tag cloud module after mid-term)
  • component back-end: here admin can manage added tags, see how many times tag was used and modify tag name (e.g. "joomla" to "joomla!")
  • editor-xtd "insert tags" button: when editing article, user can use "insert tags" button to tag article, or modify existing tags. This plugin is connected with jtags component and can not works by itself

What I want to do after mid-term deadline:

  • plug-in displaying submitted tags in the head of article
  • tag cloud module to enable visual tags represantation (the more frequent tag means bigger label)
  • search plug-in to allow users searching articles by tags
  • a little component modification in front-end, just to link most frequent tags with search plug-in
  • multiple translations

Any comment is appreciated :)
