Sibas,

Which version of the tagsearch function are you using, the MySQL full-text search, or the REGEXP?

Also, do you have a link that I can take a look at?

No worries PP, step 3 is an add, more-so than a change, as you'll need both bits, "tag" page shows the regular tags and "tags" page shows all tags.

So you need this whole thing when it's all said and done;
[php]
$url = explode('/',clean(cleanXSS($_GET['category']))); // already done if you have the SEO search mode installed
if ($url[0] == "tag") {
$tags_query = $url[1];
}
if ($url[0] == "tags") {
$show_tags = $url[1];
}
[/php]

PP, that shouldn't be an issue b/c the tags mod is using the GET['category'] from snews.

Did you add a "tags" page by hand, or hard-code it like in step 2?

Matt,
Think I have the same problem (subdomain) as with the archive page.
The view all tags Â» is NOT working.

Sven,

Hyphen support in MySQL full-text must be enabled. Or rather hyphen delimiting must be disabled.

#define HYPHEN_IS_DELIM
If you can't do that, then you'll want to use the second tagsearch function; step 9.

This one is a little slower due to the mysql regex, but the upside is you can use 3 letter tags if you want.
