It would be really convenient to have the tags I use most often viewable next to the tag entry box when I am composing a post, and I'd want them to be clickable to add them to the box. smile.png Would anyone else find this useful?

 

 

I would.   I think there is a LOT of stuff we can do with tags.. and we're going to be doing that in the immediate future once we get all these upgrade issues sorted out.   Tagging content is going to almost need to be one of our site rules for it to be effective.

 

The biggest thing we're implementing is tag subscriptions.  It's not part of the IPS suite but we think it's important enough to do on our own.   The basic idea is that you "follow" a tag like you do a forum, blog, post, etc.   Then on our frontpage your "Interesting" topics view would show you all the stuff you follow.  Each tag would also have it's own section for showing a tag wiki and related posts (think stackoverflow style)

 

This could almost make any tag into a forum of sorts.
