    Hi,
    I’m using ditto 2.1.0 and tagLinks 1.05 with friendly alias paths. It works, sort of. The problem is that the url ends up with "?tags=" prior to the tag I’m after. As a consequence the displayed page is the general category page rather than the specific tag page. This means I cannot have the proper page title display to let visitors know what tag category page they have landed on.

    The tagLink chunk (which has 3 sections to it) on the calling page is:
    <p>[[tagLinks? &tv=`rgp-folio` &separator=` | ` &label=`Portfolios: ` &format=`a` &element=`span` &fap=`1` &path=`categories/`]]
    [[tagLinks? &tv=`rgp-state` &separator=` | ` &label=` — State: ` &format=`a` &element=`span` &fap=`1` &path=`categories/`]]
    [[tagLinks? &tv=`rgp-subjects` &separator=` | ` &label=` — Subjects: ` &format=`a` &element=`span` &fap=`1` &path=`categories/`]]</p>

    On the landing page the code is:
    [!Ditto? &startID=`3` &depth=`3` &tpl=`rgpDittoGallery` &tagData=`rgp-folio,rgp-state,rgp-subjects` &tagDelimiter=`,` &tagMode=`onlyTags` &tags=`[*pagetitle*]`!]

    This code is in the template. It gets data from any of three tags and matches it to the pagetitle. All is great except for the "?tags=" added into the url.

    For an example go to http://test.radiantglory.com/categories/?tags=cloudscapes The result I’m looking for http://test.radiantglory.com/categories/cloudscapes gives the tag results with the right page name & breadcrumb.

    Once I get this sorted the site is almost ready to go.

    If anyone can help I will really appreciate it.

      Having tags appear as category pages like in Wordpress would be very desirable.

      Two possible solutions are:

      and
      http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,37081.msg225154.html#msg225154

      At the moment I’m banging my head against a wall trying to find a solution as well, but these two links are the most promising so far.
