Thanks for your input but I am still confused and the confusion comes from http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Tag+Application No matter what I select (checkbox display or select display), I do not see the Tags listed like in the image of "Document Information" on this page. So either this page is wrong or I have something wrong. It would be useful to know which...

From this page I see:

"To setup the Checkbox display, you need to select "checkbox" on the TagClass page. Once this is done, users will be able to assign a tag to a given page by ticking the relevant box." This is what I want users to be able do, to "assign a tag to a given page by ticking the relevant box". I really like XWiki but I think this is one of the major problems is that the documentation does not match what actually is. Again, thank you for your response and hopefully you will have more info on the above.

If you also change the "Display Type" to "select" and put this code in a page with tags: {{velocity}} $doc.display('tags') {{/velocity}} and then edit this page in "Inline form" edit mode (?editor=inline) you'll see the list of tags you have set in XWiki.TagClass But the tag UI, i.e. what you get when clicking on Tags(+), doesn't take into account neither the "Display Type" nor the "Values" meta properties of "tags". So you either modify the tag UI or write a custom one, or you can write an event listener ( http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Observation+Module+Loca... ) that is notified when a document is saved and filters the tags. Hope this helps, Marius

Unfortunately this feature was removed a while ago. I'm not sure if it was removed by mistake or because it wasn't working properly. Probably the later. Here's a diff http://pastebin.com/11ewzxYz that can help you add this feature back, but beware that it has at least one bug I discovered doing some quick testing: once you add a tag to a page you can remove all its tags; you can add more tags, remove some, but not all. Hope this helps, a bit, Marius
