Can we use custom tag property other than cq:tags?

I have a requirement where we need to create multiple custom tag fields in page properties. But when using custom tag properties, page references for tags are not working. 

When we try to delete any tag which is added in custom property of a page, It is not throwing pop up of references. Where as this works in cq:tags.

 

we tried copying all custom tags to cq:tags property on page save. But this is happening as separate ajax call on form submit. Can we do this by overlaying page properties save functionality?

 

Any leads will be helpful.

Overlapping my impact other part of AEM wherever the cq:tags is used.

You can write your own service to get reference of page when you delete any tag.

This is quite old, but for whoever has the same issue.

 

Use @PropertyMerge from acs-commons.
You can have separate properties for your tags and have all of them merged into cq:tags property.

 

<prop1
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
sling:resourceType="cq/gui/components/coral/common/form/tagfield"
...
name="./prop1"
/>
<prop2
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
sling:resourceType="cq/gui/components/coral/common/form/tagfield"
...
name="./prop2"
/>
<tagsMerge
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/hidden"
name=":prop1@PropertyMerge"
value="cq:tags"
/>
<tagsMerge2
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/hidden"
name=":prop2@PropertyMerge"
value="cq:tags"
/>
<cqTags
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/hidden"
name="./cq:tags"
/>
