Hi all. I just installed Content Taxonomy, created a "Tags" autocomplete field and then tied that "Tags" field to my exactly-named "Tags" freetagging-enabled vocabulary. When I went to create the content the tags that I entered were created twice in the vocabulary, and they of course appeared twice on the view.

On a hunch I changed the name of my vocabulary from "Tags" to "User Tags." When I tried to create content again the taxonomy terms were created correctly and not duplicated.

Thus I think there is some bug where if you name your field the same as the name of the vocabulary you will experience something similar.

I have the term-doubling issue, but my field names and vocabulary name are not the same. The vocabulary is "Academic Institution" and there are multiple fields for it on the content type (Undergraduate, Graduate, etc.).

In my case this seems to be related to TAC:

This is a duplicate of #202039: Content Taxonomy Autocomplete terms are created twice if role does not have "create" privs for the vocab.
