I have just replaced tru_tags v3.6 (the current realease) with Andreas’ tru_tags-3.7-alpha, resulting page runtime as forty times (40x) as faster — from former 22 sec to 0.5 sec now reduced load of the biggest webpage. Nathan, why not to implement these few lines of the patch? And what are your plans in expanding tru_tags for custom fields, too?

Great plugin. Noticed some slowdowns on one of my website, but with this it seems resolved for now.

hi

i have a feature request ;)
right now you are only able to show related articles, if you make a tag search.
id like that feature for a non-search. means that if you see an individual article itll show its (tag-)related articles.
i know there is a plugin called chh_related_articles, that does that, but its not comparing for relevance.
i thought that tru_tag does that..
is this possible? pm me, if you think so and need some budget.

bless

@Vienuolis and whocarez – thanks for the nudge and the suggestions – the performance improvements have been released in v3.7 :)

Note that this release also has this fix for how “tags with spaces-and-hypens+and+plusses” are encoded – hopefully in a sufficiently backwards-compatible way. Please test it carefully if this issue affects you :)

@rossharvey – I don’t think your change should be necessary. I have a test site that uses messy URLs, and it works just fine. Have you done something custom (or out of date?) with your .htaccess file?

@jens31 – this has been requested before, and yes, it could be done in tru_tags and it seems like a great idea. As you can see from my (lack of) participation on the forums and lack of updates, I haven’t been very active with tru_tags, so I just haven’t gotten around to it. My wife is due to have a baby (our second son!) any day now, so I seriously doubt I’ll get to it soon. I’m happy to give someone commit rights to my google code repo if you can find someone who wants to try to add it, though.

Nathan: yes, my .htaccess has been tweaked, perhaps that was the cause. I’ve moved to clean URL’s since.

One other thing, is it possible to make the created tag pages, (i.e. site/tag/tagname) ‘fixed’ URLs? That would be rather excellent for SEO indexing.

rossharvey – are they not fixed? e.g. http://www.rainskit.com/tag/tru_tags/

Hey Nathan. I had my head in a twist with regards to how spiders operate and index websites. All is good :¬)

rossharvey · 2012-01-30 20:53:48

Is it possible to output a list for a specific tag?

Something like…

<txp:tru_tags tag="tag-name" section="section-name" listform="list-form" />

Please say yes, as that would make this the ultimate tag/related plugin :¬)

Check tru_tags_if_tag_search and the following tags on: http://www.rainskit.com/reference/497/trutags-usage-instructions

No juice, the tag is to be called outside the Tag section. I’ve read the docs a few times to be sure.

Any ideas Nathan? It would be great functionality. Happy to donate if you add it grin

Ross, you can link to any tag from everywhere.
And the tag search result page will show the article list for the specific tag.
And you can define the listform aka individual output on the landing page via tru_tags_if_tag_search tag="name_it" conditions.
(But) The section will always be ‘tag’ section.
(Optional) Playing around with tru_tags_tag_parameter + txp:variable can/will give you enhanced flexibility on the landing page or inside forms.

Hi Markus. Thanks, but the issue is the fact it currently needs to be the Tag section (with which makes the specific tag a variable).

Essentially, I need article_custom functionality with tru_tags, which I can call from any page or article, and output a list.

merz1 · 2012-01-31 17:10:52

Ross, I recommend to open a new thread and to specify your needs in detail.
What is different (in your needs) to the article_custom attribute keywords:

keywords=“keyword(s)” Restrict to articles with specified keyword(s). Default: unset.

Does TXP recognise tru_tag tags as keywords?

I can’t tell, never used it, thus you’re closer to an answer than I am: Simply have a look at your keywords field.

Yep. That’s one of the strengths (and weaknesses) of tru_tags – the tags are just in the Keywords field, formatted as Textpattern expects them to be.
