I want to say thank you for Scott Bedard for my inspiring plugin.

Add tag with AJAX

This plugin have three components.

Related posts component

Use `````` component to display the most related posts by tags. The component has the the following properties:

  • slug - the value used for looking up the post by its slug. The default value is {{ :slug }} to obtain the value from the route parameter :slug.

Here's the basic component usage on the ppst page:

title = "post"
url = "/post/:slug"

[blogPost]
slug = "{{ :slug }}"

[relatedPosts]
slug = "{{ :slug }}"
results = 5
==
<h1>{{ post.title }}</h1>
<p>
    <i class="glyphicon glyphicon-tags"></i>
    {% for tag in post.tags %}
    {{ tag.name }} {% if not loop.last %}, {% endif %}
    {% endfor %}
</p>
<p>{{ post.content_html|raw }}</p>

<h3>Related articles:</h3>

{% component 'relatedPosts' %}

You can see at the above there is `````` component. It's the component from Rainlab Blog plugin to display single post in page.

Search posts component

Use `````` component to display posts with associated tag. The component has the the following properties:

  • slug - the value used for looking up the tag by its slug. The default value is {{ :slug }} to obtain the value from the route parameter :slug.

Here's the basic component usage on the tag page:

title = "tag"
url = "/tag/:slug/:page?"

[searchPosts]
slug = "{{ :slug }}"
pageNumber = "{{ :page }}"
postsPerPage = 2
postPage = "post"
sortOrder = "published_at desc"
==
{% component 'searchPosts' %}

Tags list component

Use `````` component to display lists of tags. The component has the the following properties:

  • order - the column name and direction used for the sort order of the tags. The default value is created_at desc.
  • empty tag - Display tag although doesn't have any posts.

Here's the basic component usage on the tags page:

title = "Tags"
url = "/tags"

[tags]
results = 0
sortOrder = "created_at desc"
==
{% component 'tags' %}

The examples above are coded in the default component partial /rahman/blogtags/components/*/default.htm. If the default markup is not suitable for your website, feel free to copy it from the default partial and replace the {% component %} call in the examples above with the partial contents. You can give me a question for best practice in the support section.
