TAGS: use of special character (like "%") and numbers

[baris]

@ylothar said in TAGS: use of special character (like "%") and numbers:

if the tag starts with a number it is not suggested

Can you provide reproduction steps for this? Seems to work when I test it on a new topic.

Ahh it might be because there are no topics tagged with 123, does it work if you create a topic with 123 and try to use it again?

[yLothar]

@baris you're right, that's it!

What about the problem with special characters instead?

[baris]

Right now % isn't handled properly so it breaks the tag/<tagname> urls that's why it is not allowed. It would require some changes in core and the themes to properly handle that symbol.

[yLothar]

Do you think it could be put on the to-do list?
