Thanks in advance for any help in this.
I'm trying to set up a simple forum with tags such that when someone clicks on a tag, they get a listing of posts with that tag. Currently, clicking on a tag results in a view of related forum *topics* rather than related posts (ie, comments). For those new to forums, each topic is a node and all the posts under a topic are comments on that node. I've spent a lot of time now poking around the views configuration. (administration >> structure >> views) I could only find ways to show the comments of related forum topics. I didn't see a way to have the view's filtering apply to fields of nodes rather than nodes.
If this has already been address, apologies... please point me to the related post.
More info:
Drupal 7 hosted on Pantheon
Set up the forum using the Forum and Advanced Forum modules
For tags, I set up a special vocabulary and added a Term Reference to the Comments Fields for forum topics
Views works fine for displaying nodes on other parts of the site (eg, related blog posts)
Thanks!

You don't say what type of view you've created (nodes, comments, etc), but it sounds like it's a node view. My guess is, to do this, you would need to create a taxonomy view and add relationships for both the comment field and node fields that use that vocabulary.
