Feature requests for tag filtering and sorting

+2
−0

Issue #1: On the "tags" tab, there's an option to sort by hierarchy. When you have a lot of child tags under the same parent tag, or multiple parents next to each other with lots of children, things get...confusing. Especially when they have grandchildren and in-laws.

It's tags all the way down

Issue #2: When viewing a tag, the only way AFAICT to view all of its child tags is a non-so-obvious (to me) link under the tag name.

Proposal. On the "hierarchy" sort, only show the top-level tags. Next to each tag with children, add a button which toggles displaying that tag's children or hiding them.

Sort by hierarchy does exactly what id expect, it shows the tags and what children they have.

@DonielF Yeah, that sounds better. Toggling the children on the hierarchy page is much more intuitive to me than just hiding them and leaving it to the user to open each individual tag page.
