Description

I Want To Implement the tagging functionality in redmine.In One of the posts somebody has mentioned that Tagging can be done by creating a custom field .I want to Implement this tagging functionality in News,Documents,Forums,Wkis etc.If this is the case How can I use the custom fields to implement tagging functionality.

Is there any separate plugin to Implement the tagging functionality.I tried with acts_as_taggable plugin.The Problem is that I could not able to Install the plugin and also in somewhere it has mentioned that Acts_as_taggable does not work with Rails 2.0.I am runing Redmine 8.0 and it uses Rails 2.0.So Please Guide me in this issue

How can I Implement This Tagging Functionality in Redmine

A Tagging system would be a great feature for redmine.

Two tagging versions could be possible:

The user gets a textfield and enters tags (separated by space - linked words are encapsulated in quotes - eg. "tag this string" term2 term3 "term nr 4")

Central tagging handling: The system admin generates a list of tags (similar to the 'user defined fields' - taggroups can be assinged to different pageareas )
The user then gets the opportunity to check a variable number of tags (within an issue or a project or [most imortant] while booking time)

While beeing a good typo3 and JS programmer, my Ruby on Rails skills are pathetic. Therefore I can just offer my help for testing and conceptualization!

Maybe you can look at the tagging plugin for trac:
http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TagsPlugin

It implements a tag cloud of all tags which are entered at the wiki page and tickets...

Sorry for misunderstanding me.
This is a plugin for TRAC, not for Redmine. It can only give you ideas how to implement it.

This is related to #480 - "Wiki: Support categories tagging and autolisting" and the more general issue #1448 - "Add tags to issues".

Personally tagging would be good for the wiki as pages don't always fit into a neat category so being able to add tags is one step better than just relying on the good search facilities in Redmine.
