Can't add tag block "Error: The required page attribute with the handle of: "tags" doesn't exist"

Permalink
Hi There,

I have a custom attribute setup called "recipe_tags". The attribute is on a recipe home page and is on all the child pages (with tags entered on them all).

Now I'd like to display a list of tags in the sidebar but I get the following error when trying to add the tag block:
"Error: The required page attribute with the handle of: "tags" doesn't exist"

Does the tag block always look for a handle "tags" and if so, how do you have multiple tag groups i.e. product_tags, news_tags etc?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers
Ben

the tags block only draws from the tags attribute.However, with a bit of code you can show any block. heres the code (put it in a php block or hard code it)
Loader::model('attribute/categories/collection');//load the model
$ak = CollectionAttributeKey::getByHandle('recipe_tags');//get the attribute
$recipies = $c->getAttribute($ak->getAttributeKeyHandle());//get the data stored in the attribute
if(is_object($recipies)&& $recipies->count() > 0) {// check the the attribute has data in it (otherwise it would give an error)
   foreach($recipies as $r) {//get all the tags
             echo $r.', ';
   }
}

this will output all the recipe tags separated by a comma.

I've just updated to 5.4.2, and I'm getting the same response when I try to add a tag block. Plus, if I continue to hit "Add", I get this:

"Fatal error: Call to a member function saveAttributeForm() on a non-object in E:\Websites\GLACIERPEAK\updates\concrete5.4.2\concrete\blocks\tags\controller.php on line 92"

I'm not doing the above fancy footwork of adding a new group of tags, so whuzzagoinon? Thanks in advance.
