Let's unify taxonomy_user and community_tags

Real quick list of objectives:

  • Best of both module features
      Timestamps from community_tags
  • Better support for tags separated by spaces (steven?)
  • AJAX tag-adding interface
  • Clean upgrade path
  • Useful display options (e.g. separate "my tags" from "all tags", out of box integration w/tagadelic)

    • Challenges:

    • Ideally the AJAX tag submitter should be AHAH and use real formAPI validation, etc. Currently I have a custom menu callback that listens for an AJAX post.
    • Ultimately, the site's markup of the site (theme-dependent?) is a potential issue here for the live updating. If we can't reliably select the list of tags w/jQuery, it obviously doesn't work. I think relying on #node- .terms will work, but need to research this a bit more.

    I am willing to do the legwork on this in the next week or so. Please feel free to chime in on things you'd like to see included, cleaned up, or otherwise "gotten done" with this.

    Hi JoshK,

    I think this is a great idea and the drupal community would really benefit from a unified module that takes the best frm both modules...

    I'm willing to helpand test anything you can come up with... As for ideas, I think you got it all covered, the key to the success of this module is of course letting people tag nodes really easily.

    What about letting some roles removing tags directly from the node view??

    PLease let me know if you need help for any testing,
    Thanks,

    Patchak

    Removing could work like on flickr.

    You would have a list of tags with an [x] on them that deletes the tag if you click on it.

    drupal [x] | module [x] | toread [x] | taxonomy [x]

    If you click on the [x] on toread e. g. it would say:

    "Are you sure you would like to delete "toread"?" [Yes] [No]

    ...

    Check out current 5.x version. has its quirks but might do what you need, especially if you have some programming skills. Also have a look what's stirring at Community Tags.
