Tagging support (as seen on doc.etherpad.org)

[DhirajGupta]

Anyone know how to turn on tagging support like doc.etherpad.org has?
If I query /ep/tag/ in my browser, all I get is a 404. :(

I asked him about this yesterday; he said: browse to
http://localhost:9000/ep/admin/
click plugin manager, disable/enable the twitterStyleTags plugin.

And it's now mentioned in
http://wiki.github.com/ether/pad/installation-instructions-ii
:)

I don't see a plugin manager listed in my admin section. Do I need to do something to activate that feature ? Do plugins get added separately ?

If the plugin manager doesn't dhow up in the admin menu, you have an
older version of Etherpad. Either pull the latest version, or go to /
ep/admin/pluginmanager/ (including the last slash) manually.

I've been building from the original google code repo, I have since
then been able to merge most of the changes from the github repo as
well - barring some errors that are probably due to something still
missing from my manually diffed merge. I'm unable to get the tags
listing to work. One of these days will get that figured as well -
they *are* getting added to the main db tables, I think I saw the
cache table was empty though. Don't remember, I actually went and
found and diffed immediately after posting this, but didn't see the
replies till now.

Side Note #1: Does that tags listing really need to be on the same
template as the pad view? Wouldn't it be better off in a separate view
where we could have better templating - perhaps have a bigger area to
display the tags list - and then add more functionality as we go
forward?

Side Note #2: There's potentially a downside to enabling this plugin -
wouldn't it allow all tagged anonymous pads to be immediately
accessible to the world? I mean, one of the cool things about having
the whole obfuscated URL thing with the non-subdomained pads is that
you can at least have other people only figuring out pad URLs by
guessing, so at least by obfuscation, pads are only accessible by
people who have the URL key. I'm not sure what happens on the sub-
domained pads' tags, didn't get that far with my testing.

Quite ...... entertaining that diff, there's added plugin hooks all
over the place - I think that was your work alone, redhog? Really
great stuff IMHO, especially the ace.js modfications.

Actually, they aren't, so don't worry :).

Hi all,

is there an update on this? I updated to etherpad version 1.0.1 (from
github) and enabled the twitterStyleTags in the plugin manager. Tags
like #foobar are recognized as links (and added into the tables as
Dhiraj mentions), but the overview page
http://host/ep/tag/?query=foobar doesn't show the tagged pages.

Are there any instructions how to configure the Motd-feature? I only
get a 404 here, but creating manually didn't seem to help either.

best,
pat

Pat: Regarding the motd, here's what I ended up doing:

(1) Create a "new page"

(2) Navigate to the Time Slider

(3) Click on "Link to read-only page"

(4) Copy and paste the last part of the url /ep/pad/... into
your etherpad.local.properties

Sorry, no advice on the overview page.

Thanks Joe, that worked perfectly.

Regarding the empty tag browser: The SQL queries are not working, I
wrote down a work-around here: http://piratepad.net/xiGEyOqucv

Is it correct that all pages listed in the tag browser have to be
marked #public?

best,
pat

Cool.

Yeah; in fact this is discussed earlier in this thread. Seems
likely it would be a very minor code change to change this
behavior.
