HI,

For tag edit the below links did work

http://www.flexibledesigns.rs/custom-fields-in-tag-dialogs-for-touch-ui/

https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2390213

But I want a custom textfield when submitted the values must  get stored in crxde. Currently i added   new field under body of

/apps/cq/tagging/gui/content/tags/createtag

The field comes up correctly on web browser  but when clicked on submit the custom  name field value is not getting saved on crx de.

Could some provide inputs as how this could be achieved.

Thanks.

I found the solution to it

Added the new property under create tag

Step1:-

/apps/cq/tagging/gui/content/tags/createtag/jcr:content/body/items/form/items/wizard/items/createStep/items/fixedColumns/items/fixedC olumn1/items

<newtextproperty

                                                            granite:class="block"

                                                            granite:id="tagpimid"

                                                            jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"

                                                            sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield"

                                                            fieldLabel="proerty"

                                                            name="newtagproperty"

                                                            required="{Boolean}true"/>

Step2:-

under /apps/cq/tagging/gui/content/tags/createtag/jcr:content/body/items/form

Change the action to new custom servlet

sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form"

                    action="/bin/tagcommandcreateext"

Step3:-

I found that ootb component on dialog creation sends data  servlet /bin/tagcommand  that is com.day.cq.tagging.servlets.TagCommandServlet

so decode and copy this code to your servlet and remove all the unwanted code expect for createtag code

Step4:- under your new servlet which has servlet path with "/bin/tagcommandcreateext" 

private HtmlResponse createTag(TagManager tagManager, SlingHttpServletRequest request){

    ResourceResolver resourceResolver = null;

   Session session = null;

   

    Map<String, Object> subService = new HashMap<>();

            subService.put(ResourceResolverFactory.SUBSERVICE, SUB_SERVICE);

            resourceResolver = resourceResolverFactory.getServiceResourceResolver(subService);

            session = resourceResolver.adaptTo(Session.class);

 

  try {

                Tag tag = tagManager.createTag(tagID, request.getParameter("jcr:title"),

                        request.getParameter("jcr:description"));

               Node tagNode = session.getNode(tag.getPath());

                tagNode.setProperty("newtagproperty",

                  request.getParameter("newtagproperty"));

     session.save();

                return this.createResponse(200, type + " created", tag.getTagID(), tag.getPath());

            }...

modify the name and granite:id properly

then under tagedit.js

add the ff:

     var myVariable = res["customField-ID"];
     $("#customField-ID").var(myVariable);

btw, I'm 6.4 but I'm assuming it should work just the same.
