Benny (or anyone else who might know), I came across the Tags extension via a Google search: [http://www.nabble.com/using-acts\_as\_taggable-td16390502.html](http://www.nabble.com/using-acts_as_taggable-td16390502.html) This seems like it will meet my page tagging needs. I just wanted to make sure the version made available via SVN is the newest one: svn://zuurstof.openminds.be/home/kaizer/svn/rails\_stuff/radiant\_extensions/tags Thanks! - Dave ---

Awesome, was looking for the same thing! Great find!

I don’t know what approach is best but what I’ve done is do a git clone into the target directory (did it with a plugin but should work fine for an extension) of your app. I then tell svn to ignore the .git directory as well as tell git to ignore the .svn directories. You can continue to keep the git clone up-to-date. However, I have gotten some svn errors (!) when git removes or moves files. You’ll need to manually fix those in svn. Otherwise git and svn live in harmony. If you’re using git as your app repo then I believe submodules are the way to go but I have yet to try this out. My git fu isn’t that great yet. 🙂 Cheers, Marty ---

Hi, I just moved the extension to github ([GitHub - jomz/radiant-tags-extension: Extends Radiant CMS with tagging capabilities. Tagging as in "2.0" and tagclouds.](http://github.com/jomz/radiant-tags-extension)), and will probably not be synchronizing the subversion repos. I only did a tiny README update since the svn-version. Can somebody please confirm that the version as found on github works with 0.6.6? thanks. Still struggling with git and github…, how do you guys set up a svn:external’ish environment for extensions? Regards, Benny ---

I went with submodules, and i really like it so far. This article helped me get started; [http://woss.name/2008/04/09/using-git-submodules-to-track-vendorrails/](http://woss.name/2008/04/09/using-git-submodules-to-track-vendorrails/) ---

I found two issues that should be simple fixes. I’m not setup with Git yet, so I can’t make a proper patch for you, so I hope this works. Bug: The current code is looking for the incorrect querystring parameter on the Search By Tag page. In app/models/tag\_search\_page.rb change line 58 from… tag = @request.parameters[:tag] …to… tag = @request.parameters[:q] ‘Should be Fixed Eventually but Not Important’: tags.css should get installed in stylesheets/admin (instead of directly in stylesheets) during the rake install. Outside of this, everything seems to work great! - Dave
