tag cloud widget not filtering properly

Emily Neufeld

Trying to configure the Tag Cloud widget in our community. We want to show specific tags, but not all tags. In this example, we want to filter to show 3 tags: adobe, ci bulletin, cloudcraze but when those 3 tags are applied, no content appears even though we have content with those tags. 

I haven't been able to fully understand how the filtering is supposed to work from the documentation. It seems like it should show content with any of the outlined tags, but is it actually filtering by content with all 3 tags? If so, that is a poor design.

Please clarify.

    Understood. Yes, for some reason, the Tag Cloud widget does not currently expose the same OR option that the Tagged Content List widget does, even though the platform supports this. I've logged this as an issue.

    TE-14765

    I've also attached a workaround customized version of the Tag Cloud widget that exposes this option.

    That being said, it's worth identifying what you're trying to achieve too. With your current configuration, the Tag Cloud will show tags related to Q419TestTag, i.e. tags that are added to content also tagged with Q419TestTag. If there's only one tag in the filter list, this new option to OR or AND will not make a difference. And if you're just trying to list content tagged with Q419TestTag, the Tagged Content List widget may be what you're after, instead..

    Thank you Michael. Any idea when this may be fixed? I really need to be able to determine content counts by product number and this is the best means to do so at the moment.

    Unfortunately not yet, it needs to be triaged. 

    Edit: deleted a previous reply as I misstated the issue with the tag API.

    Edit again: Do try the attached customized widget. It includes what will likely be the same fix whenever it ships in the product. The platform already supports ORing tags, but the default version of the widget just didn't expose it.
