Hello,
I have Installed Post indexer, and tag posts... I can also see db tables formed for post indexer. Normally developers release some kind of documentation for plugin, or step by step guide to install, couldn't find. I also tried searching the forums, found roughly 3-4 topics but still did not find an exact usage example, and have seen users asking for help are not being able to do it still. 1 User was suggested to use http://wpmudev.org/project/MuTags - So, I jumped right in, later found MuTags ==LIMITATIONS==
-Pretty permalinks must be enabled.
-Works with WPMU 1.3
Back to Tag posts :-
I am implementing following code lines inside front-right.php of edublogs theme
<div class="edtag">
I just require one set example that anyone is using to display tags on the home page, just show me what exact code are you inserting to display tags ? and I will be able to catch it from there..
Just add that into home.php like so:
<?php
tag_posts_display_recent('test',10,40,150,' ','','','
','
','
','
');
?>
Note that you'll need to change 'test' to a tag you want to display. They might actually be why it's not working for you. Unless you have posts tagged with 'test' there wouldn't be anything for the plugin to display.
Also, if you're just looking to display recent posts on the frontpage then I'd suggest taking a look at our Recent Posts Widgets.

Hi Andrew thnx for replying, an example displaying 5-10 tags would be really appreciated.. I have never used anything in tags before, I am awesome at joomla development, but wordpress at learning stage..
How will I show all the tags from all the blogs created by users, or some of the famous tags which gets extracted automatically..
Please suggest some wordpress mu books for advance coding, if possible ;}

Hiya,
There's an example right at the top of the file:
tag_posts_display_recent('test',10,40,150,'
','','','
','
','Just add that into home.php like so:
<?php
tag_posts_display_recent('test',10,40,150,'
','','','
','
','?>
Note that you'll need to change 'test' to a tag you want to display. They might actually be why it's not working for you. Unless you have posts tagged with 'test' there wouldn't be anything for the plugin to display.
Also, if you're just looking to display recent posts on the frontpage then I'd suggest taking a look at our Recent Posts Widgets.
Thanks,
Andrew

Hiya,
I'm afraid this plugin is only capable of pulling posts from a single tag at a time.
You would need to use a tagging plugin such as this one:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-sitewide-tags/
That plugin basically uses a specified blog to display tags, etc.
Thanks,
Andrew

I guess you could also use this plugin, right? http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/post-indexer

Is it my imagination, or does this plugin not provide links back to the posts???
When I implemented the sample code, it simply listed the posts from a specific tag. No links!

Hiya,
Always best to search older threads before posting. This one is still on the frontpage:

Thanks,
Andrew
