This is a new post because Tagger Lite has been rewritten for EE2! It is now available for immediate download. It needs a new post because the data is handled differently.

Tagger Lite is available now at http://www.devdemon.com

Tagger Lite allows you to tag all your Expression Engine entries. This powerful module allows you to add “Keywords” to your entries in a new simple integrated solution right within entry fields of EE2. This allows you to showcase content by tag and create tag clouds within your Expression Engine templates.

Simply add a custom field to your weblog and you can quickly choose “Most Used Tags”, “Insert Tags”, or “Tags Search”. You can also quickly view all your assigned tags and remove them with ease. Tagger Lite is a simple to use Tagging system that will let you or your customer easily add and remove keyword based tags.

Another simple to use Module for you designers. For Free!

Tagger Lite 1.1.0 is now available.

Updates:

  • Created tags now display in tagger module control panel
  • Tagger (for EE2) now plays nice with other control panel themes
  • Tagger (for EE2) styles updated to have dynamic width

Thanks for contribution!

I’m having a slight issue though. I’ve installed it but every time I create an entry, add tags and save it, they don’t seem to save. I see the fields for Tagger in the publish page.

Am I missing any other pre-requisites for Tagger? Should I also see a Tagger tab in the publish entry? I copied the folders to the correct locations in EE2. I’m assuming that was all that was needed other than activating it in the control panel.

Thanks

Just curious if this module will for example scan your archives and take categories and convert them to tags? I’ve got a really old blog (Nov 2002) that I would like to convert from categories to tagging.

Currently it doesn’t. It does seem like a good idea.

Here are the steps. 1. Upload the files to their correct locations 2. Enable the module (module & fieldtype) 3. Create new custom field (Type: Tagger) 4. Go to your publish form assign some tags and hit save. 5. Does it work?

So I tried the steps everything, as far as I can see, is correct. I still have the problem. This wouldn’t be a permissioning issue of some kind would it? This is what it looks like after I submit the entry:

test 2 taere awef asef asef ase ase ase a💯{s:4:"skip";s💯"n";}

The Tagger console page is also empty of any entries.

It works great for me. It would be nice if you could get a list of related entries for a specific entry based on the tags though.

I can get the tag cloud to display, but how do I get the articles to display after clicking on the links for each of the tags?

Here is what I have:

{exp:tagger:tags channel:entries channel="repository" limit="35"}  
                            <ul>
                                <li>{entry_date format="%m.%d.%y"}: <a href="http://{website_url}">{title}</a> 
<span>{blurb}</span></li>
                            </ul>
                            {/exp:tagger:tags}

Am I way off base? Thanks!!

Here is an example (for EE 1.6.8)

{exp:tagger:entries_quick tag="{segment_3}"}
     {exp:weblog:entries entry_id="{entry_ids}"}
        <h4>{title}</h4>
     {/exp:weblog:entries}
{/exp:tagger:entries_quick}

I’m in 2.0.1. Do I just replace the weblog with channel?

Thanks! Eric

Then it becomes:

{exp:tagger:entries_quick tag="{segment_3}"}
     {exp:channel:entries entry_id="{tagger:entry_ids}"}
        <h4>{title}</h4>
     {/exp:channel:entries}
{/exp:tagger:entries_quick}

…still no luck.

Is there anything that you did differently or have installed in your setup? I have a default install of 2.0.1 but nothing shows up. Does it matter if I changed the system folder name?

I’ve attached screenshots. I’ve added tags per screenshot called test 3 and test 4. Hit submit and shows the next screenshot with the strange characters. I go the tagger page and it’s empty. EE indicates that Tagger Lite is installed in the Modules list and the Fieldtypes list.

Some observations:

  • When the toolbar and sidebar are open, Tagger Lite doesn’t seem to wrap into its respective container.

  • The Tagger Lite panel in the Add-Ons > Modules area doesn’t seem to display anything.

  • The search box is providing me with only exact results. When I type an impartial word, it doesn’t show any results. For example, the word to does not produce a result for today. But the word today does produce a result for today.

Awesome work on the module. Looking forward to future updates!
