Joomla add a "tag" field to the front end of a form

Question

I'm fairly new to Joomla and I need some help and guidance on adding tags to a form. Basically, what I want to do is, have a text box where people can enter "tags", as the person types, tags that are already in the system will show up in a drop down menu (or some other way for the user to select existing tags). Does that make since? it's a fairly common thing to do, but I can't seem to find how to do it.

Just noticed... I want to do exactly what you do with the tags field when asking a new question here.

I've tried ChronoForms, but again, can not find any information on how to add a tag field to the front-end of a form.

Thanks for any help,

Ross

Answer 1

Please check the AutoCompleter demo form in CFv6 - that does what you are asking for - set Multi-Select to Yes to allow multiple tags.
