Mystery of the Missing Tags
I have noticed this before, but did not have the patience to blog about it. During WordPress tag searches (wordpress.com/<tag>), I have noticed that the tags mentioned below the posts are actually the ‘Categories’ under which I had filed my post. So, tags got replaced by categories. I don’t know whether this happens to other WordPress bloggers or not and, to be frank, only noticed this when I was searching for posts having tags similar to what I had used. Anyway, here’s what I saw when I searched for tag Excerpts following my previous post:
The so called tags over there are actually the categories and the actual tags are missing.
Four hours later:
This time, some of the tags (which are actually categories. Sigh!) have gone missing. I Wonder what happened to them. Has any one else faced similar problems at WordPress?
Mebbe this can clear up your dilemma.
There’s no dilemma here…it’s an error with wordpress.
I think some of the older stuff got mixed up when they moved categories to tags. Check the WP blog post here
Yeah, looks like that, Krishna. Thank you for the link!
