I updated to WordPress 2.3!
Posted on September 25th, 2007 by Richard Catto 3,227 views
I really wanted to get the new tag feature, you know. I just had to have it!
To display tags for a post, one needs to update the theme. I got it working for a single post (single.php), but can’t get the index.php page to display them on the front page.
Here’s my template code (same for both index.php and single.php)
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
<?php the_tags("Tags: ", ", ", ""); ?>
This works for single.php and displays the tags directly under the content, but NOT for index.php. Does anyone know how to make this work?
[EDIT] Okay, fixed! Please make sure that you replace all instances of start_wp() with the_post().
Source for fix:
the_tags() does not output anything if the_post() is not called
Tags: 2.3, index.php, single.php, start_wp(), Tags, the_post(), the_tags(), wordpress bugs

Then I have to delete all the superfluous categories. And along the way, I have to find a new SEO plugin which will use tags to populate the meta keywords field with tags rather than categories.
Anyone know of such a plugin?
