Hi,
Ive tried Joomla Tag Component and really loved it.
Great job!

I just have 3 questions/problems:

1. The tags and "add tag" line appears also on the front page which looks unpleasant.
Is there a way to make it show only in the end of the content article?

2. Can I allow only admins to add tags? I don't want registered to add tags.

3. Please have a look at the attached screen shot.
I wrote in Arabic, and this was the result.
What file should I edit to change the encoding?
Arabic uses Winodws-1256.

Thanks

Not at the moment.

Not at the moment. I'll add the two features to the features request list.

Please post the URL of your website. The tags can be getting mangled anywhere between sending to PHP, saving to the DB or displaying on the site.
If you could also post the character encoding of your database tables that would help.

Thanks.
I'll wait then for the next version because these issues are crucial to me.

I did not install it yet on my live site, I tried it on my local server.

Joomla 1.0.15
Db Encoding: From phpmyadmin it says Swedish (but Arabic shows all right on the site) and I think this is a common thing in phpmyadmin with "Eastern" languages.
Joomla language pack: Arabic (windows-1256 encoding)

Thanks a lot for your quick response.

Here is a solution to the encoding problem supplied by a user:

1.) com_tag; file tag.tasks.php
change on the line 143 ($this->fwd_Tmpl->call('listTagged', $tag, $rows, $pageNav, $this->params, $rel_tags)
change $tag -> urldecode($tag)
2. com_tag; file tag.api.php
change on the line 179
$tag = $this->db->safeEscape($tag); chnge on $tag = urldecode($this->db->safeEscape($tag))
change

See if it works for you.

Thanks guys for that useful information.Its really good to have all of you here.have a nice days..
