It’s a bit difficult to choose tags right now because you have to know what tags are available before hand. I think whatever tags show up first, are probably just going to get used the most and maybe even over-used, because of needing to mandatory-tag posts.
Is there a way to just list all available tags or can we somehow get a sticky post somewhere with all the possible tags? From there, are there additional tags that should probably be added?
Off the top of my head, these might be good ones to add:
Tag for each eternal with their common name; ex: “Leodin” but not The Lightbringer
Tag for each game mode: Arenas, Customs, Spires, Ascension, Tutorial, Training are probably relevant tags to add
Maybe specific tags to different game surfaces: Steam, Discord, Forums?
I’m sure I’ll have more but key tldr here: How to get a list of all the existing tags?
Thanks!
For reference: This is what the tag list shows right now.
I can’t see all the possible tags though. This is all I see on that /tag url (image below). It doesn’t show stuff like.. audio, animation, accessibility and there’s not a way to “scroll” through the tags when making a new post. You just get to see the first alphabetical 5 or you have to guess at what tags exist.
Just poking around the Discourse support forums I found this (which might be outdated). It looks like it’s only accessible to admins.. but it sounds like you can expand the default list of what available tags are available in the choice box from 5 to whatever. It sounds like you’d have to find what tables the tags are stored in and create a custom sql query to actually display the possible tags, as a user-facing custom plugin somewhere, which sounds kinda janky. Too many spaghetti, indeed.
