We've got a bunch of spam tags (like "love", and ... worse) left over from a spam attack which is now under control via moderation. The posts are gone, but the tags linger.
From the docs, I think maybe we need to be running manage.py delete_unused_tags periodically — nightly, perhaps, or at least weekly.
manage.py delete_unused_tags
Thanks!
We are. ;(
roles/ask/files/cron-delete-unused-tags:0 22 * * * root /usr/bin/python /etc/askbot/sites/ask/config/manage.py delete_unused_tags > /dev/null 2> /dev/null
I can run it manually and see if there are any error(s).
Searching for unused tags: ------------------------------------------------------------ 100.00% Did not find any.
So, perhaps those tags are still on posts?
Maybe indexed somewhere internally...
https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/questions/scope:all/sort:activity-desc/tags:love/page:1/
appears empty even when viewed as a logged-in admin account
All of the tags are a mess, because zero reputation users can create new ones at will. :(
So, where does that leave us here? I guess we could try manually removing tags? Or ask upstream why delete_unused_tags might not be working?
:grey_question:
I guess I'll close this for now.
If someone wants to persue this with upstream, please feel free to do so.
