Editing tags

When I go into a previously posted entry and attempt to edit the tags by clicking on the little box with my list, it erases all my other tags and replaces it with just the one. If I try to put two tags to an entry, the second one erases the first one, even if I put a comma after them.

Suggestions?

Hit shift before you click.

Shift will select all the tags between the previously selected tag and the one you're clicking. (Also, you need to hold it down as you click.)

Rather, holding down Control, rather than Shift, as you click, should do what you want!

Aarg! Thanks, Sophie! I always get the two messed up.

Quick note to say, if you want to add a nw tag on the Edit Tags page, you have to do that separately.

Either CTRL+click on the existing tags, save, and then go back to add the new tag(s), or do the new tags, save, then go back and pick the existing tags you want to use.

Argh, no, ignore me. You can do both at once.

I just went and checked, and that's obviously an old bug that's been fixed. I've just been in the habit of doing them separately for so long, I kept doing it. ::facepalm::

So, thank you for helping me learn something new! ::blushes::
