my testing has been inconclusive.
i’m trying two TVs:
1) a multi-select listbox with the options ’brand||print||web’ using the delimited list widget and a comma as delimiter
2) a text input with no option values also using the delimited list widget and a comma as delimiter
there are 3 articles:
article A - tagged with only ’print’
article B - tagged with ’web,brand’
article C - tagged with ’brand,web,print’ (switched brand & web to test the calls)
my 2 calls, both on the same page:
[!Ditto? &startID=`12` &tpl=`blogTemplate` &summarize=`10` &filter=`tvworkTags,web,6` &tagDelimiter=`,` !]
[!Ditto? &startID=`12` &tpl=`blogTemplate` &summarize=`10` &filter=`tvworkTags2,web,6` &tagDelimiter=`,` !]
i changed the number after ’web,’, trying 1 through 6 and looking for something that will produce only the 2 articles with the ’web’ tag. the test results, separated by call & showing whether article A, B or C was a result:
#1: no entries returned
Call 1= none
Call 2= none
#2: all entries returned, even without the ’web’ tag
Call 1= ABC
Call 2= ABC
3: call 2 returned the entry that had the ’web’ tag first
Call 1= none
Call 2= B
4: one call returned all entries, the other ignored the one with the ’web’ tag first
Call 1= ABC
Call 2= AC
5: one call returned all entries, the other ignored the one with the ’web’ tag first
Call 1= ABC
Call 2= AC
6: call 2 returned the entry that had the ’web’ tag first
Call 1= none
Call 2= B
so from my testing, it did not once do what i want it to do - show all entries with the ’web’ tag, regardless if that is the first tag or not. either A) it can’t do this, which totally makes no sense as it practically makes the tagging feature useless, or B) i don’t know how to setup the TV properly (no surprise there).
Bueller?
