how to get tag.uri given a tag name ?

[max.an...@gmail.com]

Hi,

Is there a way given a tag name (as string) to lookup the tag model so I can get the uri field ?

I thought something like ${tags['mytag'].uri} would work but tags is just an iterable collection.

thank you

for context its my attempt to see if I can workaround or find solution to why content.rootpath with tag.path=blog/tags result in a bad result.

Unfortunately not an easy way no. I'm struggling to remember if there was a reason why this data type was selected too.

Hi Jonathan,

How does one generate tags pages with links to right uri without that info ? Particularly when tag.path isn’t just one level deep ?

You can do it by looping through all the values in that collection to find the match for the tag value you have, but it's not ideal.

Hmm... actually let me double check I'm on the same page... are you trying to access this tags data model from the template of content (i.e. page/post/custom) so to provide a link to the tag page? Or are you accessing it from the tags template so to provide links to the content attributed to that tag?

Hi Jonathan,

I’m on a post page trying to make the right link to its tag.

Hi Max,

Maybe this can help, see this code for how I am building tags in freemarker template- https://github.com/manikmagar/jbake-phlat-theme/blob/master/templates/post/content-single.ftl#L8

My tags.path is default so I have hard coded it to build the path. But that hard coded value can be replaced with ${config.tags_path} to pick the value from configuration. 

Regards,

Manik

Hi Manik,

Yeah I’ve done similar but it fails when trying to put it in for example /blogs/tags
