I am using Umbraco version 7.1.1 assembly: 1.0.5211.22376.
I created a custom document type with several properties of various types that all seem to be working well. However, I cannot get a property using the Tags datatype to work.
My custom property has a type of "tags" and is using the "tags" data type with default as the tag group.
I can save the content item based on the document type without error, but the tags are not saved along with the content item. Am I missing a step or do tags not yet work in 7.1.1?
So that link led me to the realization that one must hit enter after entering a tag. Doing this actually does save the tag along with the content and I can now pull that data out of the content as well.
So at least tags are saving properly.
But yes, now I see the second issue that the editor does not autopopulate previous tags, which will be problemmatic.
So as far as my originally reported issue, that has been solved.
Ah yes, I've seen others not "getting" how the tags property editor works - Perhaps it should be changed so it's more intuitive. But happy to see I could help solve your issue :)
Tags not working at all in 7.1.1
Hi,

Hi Brad
Unfortunately there has been some issues with the Tags datatype, which is revealed by this search http://issues.umbraco.org/issues?q=tags+datatype
Specifically I think this issue is what you're experiencing currently http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-3918
