Hi all Hope you’re keeping well.

I just picked up a bug (it may just be in my forum though) with the tags system. I was doing some tag cleaning today, so I needed to merge a few tags. I had two tags that needed merging: “User Interfaces” and “User Interface” (my fault).

After merging the tags, I received this error:

http://www.inniosoft.co.cc/devstation/tags

I am using the Hot Tags Plus plugin, but I don’t think it has anything to do with this error.

Running bbPress 1.0.2.

Any ideas?

Peace, Michael

I think it is related to hot tags plus only, as the query shown on your server is same to this – https://plugins-dev.bbpress.org/browser/hot-tags-plus/trunk/hot-tags-plus.php#L144

I was able to merge fine on trunk revision 2388 and on 1.0.2 so it should be the plugin.

I see – must be the case then. Any idea how it can be fixed? I’m assuming that the attempt to remove the tag that may have caused the problem would be useless.

I will try re-installing the plugin, that should do the trick.

turn off related tags option

I’ve just disabled the plugin. I don’t want to reduce the functionality of it at all. Besides, I’m planning to make some changes to my forum – so I’ll probably use bbCumulus when the time comes.

Thanks for the help

or just wait, I will give you a patch (if possible)

[Gautam]

Add this before line 40 in hot-tags-plus.php:

add_action('bb_pre_merge_tags', 'hot_tags_plus_delete');

This wont fix your current bug (but would fix future ones). To fix the one that is now, temporarily run hot_tags_plus_delete() function any where in your template to clear the cache and remove it after that.

Okay, thank you
