Hello,

I would like to use the freetag plugin, but I have been unable to find information about how to do it:

1. How to adapt the display of tags and entries with the same tag on my blog?
2. What is the "Taglink" parameter?
3. What is the "Send X-FreeTag-HTTP-Headers" parameter?
4. What is the "Activate Find-tags-as-you-type" parameter?

Thanks for any help.

Have a nice day,
Fabien

Hi!

1. Can you explain what you mean with that? Do you mean CSS-customization?

2. This is a parameter on which link to use for a tag link (then link for each tag). This should only be changed if you know mod_rewrite and can redirect to the actual tag, because the link internally needs to stay as /plugin/tag/XXX.

3. This is a debugging option to help developers wqhen you have problems with the freetag plugin

4. Autocompletion when you create a new entry, and when you enter a tag it will be autocompleted based on previous tags you entered.

Hi Garvin,

Thanks for your so quick and precise answer! As usual! How can you do that?!

About point 1. Yes, how can I customize the display by CSS and/or smarty variables (it seems that there is only one)?

Warm regards,

The freetag plugin has its own DIV container through which you can style it with basic CSS rules. The best is to look into the HTML output to see hwo the DIV class is called, and then style it appropriately through the style.css file of your template.

The plugin itselfs outputs straight HTML code; you can enable a smarty option of the freetag plugin, in which case you need to place the freetag variables yourself in the entries.tpl body. If you want to do that, the best is to use smarty's {debug} console inside any of your template files, which will give you a smarty popup window that shows you all available variables...

Hi Garvin,

I'll look at the HTML code and create an appropriate CSS.

Thank you for the little miracles! But you are doing a lot of them every day…
Warm regards, Fabien
