similar to: Having Trouble Using ActsAsTaggable

Disclaimer: RoR newbie. Using the acts_as_taggable plugin. As an exercise I wanted to switch from the destructive TAG_WITH method to adding tags while preserving the existing ones.

I''m on the downhill side of a large project that requires an additional integer field to be added to the tag.rb in acts_as_taggable.

A couple of quick acts_as_taggable (the Rails 1.1 plugin version) 1. Can you update tags on an existing record? If I execute the tag_with statement twice it creates two rows in the taggings column, instead of updating the value of the existing tag 2. Can you delete tags? I didn''t see a method for this. If I can delete tags, problem #1 goes away. scott.

I''m following the acts_as_taggable chapter from the Rails Recipes book. I want my view form to have a text_field that correlates to an attribute in the Model that accepts a string of space delimited tags. The book uses tag-_list, but from what I can tell this attribute can''t be written to. I''ve added this to the plugin code itself - am I missing something, is there a

Does anyone have any experience making this work? I installed the plugin and tried the following: class SomeClass < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_Taggable end class SubClass1 < SomeClass end class SubClass2 < SomeClass end SubClass1.tag_with("tag") and notice that taggable_type = SomeClass when I do SubClass2.find_tagged_with("tag") a SubClass1 object is

I''m going through the Recipes book and got to the Tagging chapter, wanted to give it a shot. According to the text, tag_with takes a space-delimited list of tags. Is there a way to use different delimeters, such as commas or single quotes? Some tags can potentially have more than one word, such as ''ice cream''. I''d like to be able to use those without doing

Hi, I began experimenting with habtm relationships, and so I created a stories table, a tags table, and a stories_tags table referencing the former 2. When I create a "story", I want to add several tags to it.
