Bug : Disabling tags prevents users from asking questions

Question

I disabled tags and suddenly it became impossible to ask a question, because at least 1 tag has to be provided. I assume this is a bug?

Answer 1

Yes, it will happen if you disable tags after setting a non-zero minimum. You should be able to fix it by modifying qa-page-ask.php as follows:

$in['tags']=qa_get_tags_field_value('tags');

... to ...

if (qa_using_tags()) $in['tags']=qa_get_tags_field_value('tags');

The fix will be rolled into Q2A 1.6.2.
