How to make an edit that only changes the tag list by adding a tag that does not exist?
- I tried to add a tag to an existing post by editing it and it failed because there was no actual post edit:
- ![No changes were saved did not edit the post](https://meta.codidact.com/uploads/jQJKUJ3x4Khi6Sb9YfjewGE6)
After further tests I realized that this happens only if the added tag(s) do not already exist (probably the validation see no difference because the non yet existent tags are ignored).- After slightly editing the post, the edit could be submitted, but the issue still remains.
