Hi,
I have almost 700 articles, each of them has its own keywords. After import the joomla content to K2 all keywords became tags. Now I have over 3000 tags, many of them are duplicated. Searching by tags is not working well etc.
How to import Joomla's keywords to keywords in K2 items (no to tags)?
Is there a simple a solution to unify tags after creation?
thanks,
robo.

Hello Robo,

By default the searching within tags is not enabled.
You can enable ti from the K2 Search plugins' settings.

Hello Kirkor, thanks for reply, but... :)
searching isn't my biggest concern right now (and I know that I must enable it before use).

Displaying of posts choosed by tag isn't working as it should (I think that because of duplicate tags). The same reason cloud tags isn't working well. List of tags in K2 item's editor has many duplicated entries. For example: one of the popular keyword was used over 100 times, now I have over 100 tags named the same. I can't manually manage all of over 3 thousands of tags (If I could merge them, then the number of tags should be about 100-150 entries).

If I can't import Joomla article's keywords to K2 item's keywords, what I need is a solution to merge existed tags with the same name.

BTW I think that K2 need a more advanced tool to manage tags. If there are many Authors, and they are using similar tags it would be cool to have a possibility to merge those tags, don't You think?

I checked the database and I see that keywords were migrated. So, there must be some function which puts those keywords to tags. Could you let users to choose if they want to do this - like checkbox before migration process? or just write how to modify script to not to do it? please.

Are we talking about lowercase/uppercase ?
This would have to be a custom script but it would be nice.

Care to make a feature request here:

PS. You might want to take a look at K2 Import's functionality. (Not affiliated with that extension)
