Would it be possible to add the ability to merge tags? For example, say tags exists for "Game" and "Games" and you wanted to merge all tags of "Game" into "Games". That way the pages still stay tagged and you clean up your tag list.
I added a separate button so that I could include a JavaScript confirm alert for the process - a backstop to try and avoid mistakenly moving nodes between tags.
One initial gotcha I did discover was the situation where the node had both tags loaded against it - nasty YSOD. So the SQL does an update and a delete in the same process to cater for such situations.

Hi Dan
Definitely a nice idea and one that would add good value to the functionality - all too often those sorts of issues arise.
I can add the idea to my list of things to do, but cannot commit to a timeframe by which I could get it completed.
Definitely appreciate the feedback tho.
Stay tuned...
Cheers, Nigel
Sounds great. Thanks!
Hi Dan
I have just added the enhancement as previously suggested and from initial testing appears to be working nicely.
Would appreciate it if you could take it for a spin and see if here are any "gotcha's"....
