ActsAsTaggableOn Count

[Kevin Lawrence]

I'm trying to implement something like stackoverflow's tags popover, where you can mouseover any tag and see the number of posts with that tag.

I'm trying to do something like this:

topic = Topic.first

topic.tags.each do |tag|

    puts "#{tag.name} #{tag.count}"

end

But the count is never populated.

I see, from the way that the tag cloud works in TagsController, that there is a method Tag.counts() that will get me the count but I can't figure out how to get from here to there. What am I missing?

I see also that there is a migration that adds a column taggings_count to the Tag table but that is never updated as far as I can tell.

Can I get some advice?

Thanks in advance, 

Kevin

Thanks, Jim. That's exactly what I needed. I was missing the param to pass in to tag_counts_on
