#1545 RFE - Add option to restrict tags to predefined list of tags
Closed: Fixed 7 years ago Opened 7 years ago by mreynolds.

Right now any repo admin can create any tag they want per issue. It would be nice to have an option to use a predefined list of available tags from the settings page. This will enforce consistency and tag meaning across all Issues in the project.


a big +1 from me on this. This is a great idea.

I'm about to send a patch out for issue#1544 (colored tags) Once that gets merged this should be slightly "easier" to implement :)

Well, iiuc your patch for #1544 does include adding/removing tags from the settings, ie what we want here, no?

Yes, #1544 does list all the tags, but from an Issue's point of view you can not pick a tag from that list. If you specify a tag that is not on the list - it adds it. The idea here is to not allow creating tags from an Issue, but somehow only pick a tag from the existing tag list. I'm not sure what the best way is to do that in the UI, but it would be nice.

Fixing this part will be easy indeed :)

Yes you're right, this is a one line fix in issue.html

     valueField: "item",

But this can not be implemented until #1544 is merged.

I'm going to fix this in issue #1544 (colored tags) - so this can be closed.
