There appear to be three acts_as_taggable implementations and I''m looking for a recommendation on which to use. - Gem - DHH plugin - Dema mixin The Gem implementation appears to be obsolescent, from what I can read on the lists and Google search. I like that the DHH plugin uses polymorphic associations because there will be lots of different taggable items in my application; however,

I installed the acts_as_taggable plugin that DHH wrote. Now I have met problems on using it: class Book < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_taggable end mybook = Book.new mybook.tag_with(''red library book'') But the system tell the wrong message: undefined method `parse'' for Tag:Class d:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.14.0/lib/active_record/base.rb:1123:in

I''m hoping someone more familiar with DHH''s acts_as_taggable plugin can help me out here... Tags being all the rage, and the subject of a good recipe in the forthcoming Pragmatic Rails Recipes book, I decided to give them a try. However, from what I can tell, they''re kind of application-wide by design. I know the social thing is hot, but I need my tags to be

DHH''s acts_as_taggable is now much more usable with this patch. http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3866 This patch adds scoped finders, documentation, and tests: # Get tags for all articles in a blog @blog.articles.tags # Get tags for articles in a blog published in the last year @blog.articles.tags :conditions => [''published_at > ?'', 1.year.ago] # Get related

Hello, Is it possible to tag multiple fields in a model using either acts_as_taggable plugin or gem? If it is not possible out of the box, can anyone provide pointers on how I would achieve something like that? Say I have a ''Food'' model which has ''spices'' and ''healthiness'' attributes. I want to be able to tag on both those fields. Is that

Googling for acts_as_taggable is a little confusing: gem, plugin?! What are the differences? Which one to choose? Where is the best doc? Alain

so i have found that if i try to place an observer on a model that is using the acts_as_taggable plugin, my app will not start up. this is what i get in the mongrel startup log /Applications/Locomotive2/Bundles/rmagickRailsSept2006_ppc.locobundle/framework/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.14.4/lib/active_record/base.rb:1129:in `method_missing'': undefined local variable or method

Hi, I''m using the acts_as_taggable plugin & wanted to page through all a model''s records taggged with a particular tags. i.e. page through all Model records that have been tagged with "artist" I could not work out how to do this with the plugin, so I made the changes outlined below. Did I need to do this..? & does anyone else find this useful?

hi, I started today to use the acts as taggable plugin and it''s working as expected. I added a method find_tagged_with_all since I needed to find the elements tagged with all the items in a list while find_tagged_with finds all the elements tagged with any of the list terms. Attached to this mail there''s a patch which adds the find_tagged_with_all method and which solves a

I have run into a very strange problem discovered through the use of the acts_as_taggable plugin, but related to quoting/sanitizing the interpolated list in a find_by_sql. Apologies for the length, but I wanted to be complete. ;-) The method from acts_as_taggable.rb is: def find_tagged_with(list) find_by_sql(["SELECT #{table_name}.* FROM #{table_name}, tags,

I decided to play with the plugin acts_as_taggable based on Chad Fowler''s book Rails Recipes. Is it just me or can tags only be one word? If not can you explain to me how to assign multi-word tags using the acts_as_taggable plugin.

I tried to post this earlier, but it never came through. I''ve got something working in console, but not in controller. Any idea why? This is the plugin not the gem of acts_as_taggable *View* <code> <h1>Listing elements</h1> <% if @elements.blank? %> <p>There are currently no elements in the system tagged <%=

I am using the acts_as_taggable plugin, which works rather nicely by the way. My question is this: When using find_tagged_with, how do I sort the resultant data? It is currently sorting based on the "id" of the record. For instance, I have posts, with tags. If I want to find all posts tagged with "RubyOnRails" it displays them, but not in chronological order, they are

Hi I am not sure whether this is the appropriate forum to ask a newbie question about acts_as_taggable plugin. I have installed the plugin on the server and included it in my script as per readme. However, no tags are saved. Another question is, is it possible for the users to edit the tags they have created. ? Thanks

Hi all, I want to implement tagging for my resources, but I found lots "acts_as_taggable" available: "acts_as_tabble", "acts_as_taggable_on", "acts_as_taggable_on_steroid", etc. Some of them are not in active development, and I do not know which one is more popular. So, any suggestions? Thanks in advance! Difei. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Can anyone provide me an example of how they are displaying validation errors when saving a tag using Demetrius''s (not DHH''s) act_as_taggable plugin? For example, the tag model has a :validates_length_of :name, :in => 1..30, :too_long => "Tag name too long - max 30 characters", :too_short => "Tag must have a name" If a user inputs a tag longer than

Hi, I had to battle quite a bit to find how to load acts_as_taggable without using require_gem. where I previously had require_gem ''acts_as_taggable'' I tried replacing by the obvious gem ''acts_as_taggable'' require ''acts_as_taggable'' this failed miserably. The trick is that the acts_as_taggable module is in a file named taggable in the lib
