This is an example of a perfect mod. It's taking an area that vB is lacking in and making it work a heck of a lot better.

I'll install once all the reported bugs are sorted :)

I second this request. Thanks.

And thank you for this cool mod in general.

I'm vietnamese
I Tested this title : " Đóng góp ý kiến "
It generated these tags : góp,Đóng,kiến .
but I need: "Đóng góp,ý kiến
Any solution to fix this too ???I think this mod need 1 custom libarary muitiply word

It doesn't create tags for our rss feeds. Anyone else have this problem?

how add old thread auto tag...

That other mod requires file edits, which means you'll have to reapply them for every upgrade. This one is an imported product with no file edits.

This is a lot better than the other, no hacking yourself into the source code. :)

However, one question ;

What if a user submits tags, does this stop adding them automatically? Also, are there any extra queries ect. we should know about?

This will be added in the next release

A solution of sorts will be created in the next release (see comments at the end of this post)

I believe the default vBulletin software will do this.

Working on this, see comments at the end of this post

See the following:

The product does of course add some additional processing when a user submits a thread but this primarily uses what VB already has in memory so the impact is fairly low. It does not add any additional SQL queries.

In response to a few questions posted so far:

1) At the moment it does not support posts created via incoming RSS feeds, however I do intend to add this feature and I am in fact working on this right now.

2) As mention in the opening posts the product will not "retro-tag" already existing posts, the reason for this is that at the moment this is in beta and retro-tagging 1000's of posts with the current version could feasibly create alot of problem. Once the rule sets are defined then I will release something that will auto tag all existing threads.

3) As reported by a few people there are a few issues with non alphanumeric characters in titles (thing like ( ) \ /). The next version will have a fairly complex replacement system built once released this will allow you to perform filtering and replacements. So for example:

'\'=>' and '

will replace all instances of '\' with ' and '

This can also be used to extend tags, so for example you can set the following rule:

'GSXR'=>'Suzuki GSXR'

So if a user submits a title of "GSXR Paintwork", the tags will be "Suzuki GSXR, Paintwork"

I imagine that this replacement system will need, with your feedback, considerable tweaking to make it as good as it can be when process human language input.

4) Under the default configuration if the user submits tags with their thread then keywords from the title are still calculated but it will not duplicate. So for example if a thread title of "Fish food for cats" and tags of "pets, fish" are submitted, the final tags will be "pets, fish, cats". However the if the "Disable Auto Tag if Tagged?" option is enabled then if a user submits tags then the auto tagger will not do anything.

I am working on all this at the moment once I will release it as soon as I am happy that the changes are as good as they can be with single user/site testing.

And finally, thanks for the support it makes putting this together worthwhile :D

Thanks for explanation. Looking forward to a more 'stable' release. :)

This is really cool and, while not disrespecting the other guy's addon, a better piece of work to administer then 'the other' addon that does the same.

I'll echo my support from the other addons thread for something though;

AJAXifying it, making the 'tags' field autoupdate based on the title input. Make it just do the calculations and populate the 'tags' field when focus is removed from the 'title' field.

(Not being a coder enables me to use 'just' in all sorts of places, especially those where I know there'll be a lot of work to get it going :p.)
