Hi Team,

1. How can I store multiple tags in a component's node. I can select multiple tags in dialog but its not saving in JCR node, taking the first selection only.

Below is the screenshot showing all the properties I have used :

2. My tags data is not pertaining while reediting the component, I don't see the tags selected when I am reopening the dialog but it is stored in component node of jcr, Please help me to resolve this too.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,
SD

This is not an issue with OOOB tag widget AEM provides. I just tested in AEM 6.2. It works fine.

I have attached screen shots too.

following are sample tag widget snippets that might help.

<tags

cq:showOnCreate="{Boolean}true"

jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"

sling:resourceType="cq/gui/components/common/tagspicker"

allowBulkEdit="{Boolean}true"

allowCreate="{Boolean}true"

cq-msm-lockable="cq:tags"

fieldLabel="Tags"

name="./cq:tags"

renderReadOnly="{Boolean}true"/>

<tags

jcr:primaryType="cq:Widget"

cls="cq-propsdialog-tags"

fieldLabel="Tags/Keywords"

name="./cq:tags"

xtype="tags"/>

Hi there,

I tried the cq:dialog tags field of page component but still not accepting multiple tags. Its storing the tags as String not as String[] in jcr with single value.

I also used the extra clientlibs of page component but still not working.

Appreciate your more suggestions.

Thanks,

SD

Can you reproduce this on the fresh instance? Also, check the error.logs if the problem still persists.

Hi All,

Thanks all for your responses.

I tried to use tags under multifield, it's creating tags as a string not string[].

I am not able to attach the package so sending you screenshots only:

Hi Team,

Can you please retest with selecting multiple tags inside multifield as shown above.

Thanks in advance for your help.

If you select only one tag, it will be stored as a String. Once stored as String it will continue to be String (comma separated) even if you try editing the field and adding multiple tags.

Try saving multiple values in the first attempt itself (i.e. before the property exists in AEM).
