Hi there! :)
I tried to install the Topic Tags addon today, but for some reason, it didn't seem like I was able to add any topic tags. Therefore, I decided to try and uninstall the addon, and I got this message (see attachment).
Could someone help me either get the topic tags addon to work, or help me uninstall it?
Thank in advance!
Best,
Auctor Lucan
Did you install the add-on on elkarte 1.0 or 1.1?
I have not dared upgrade from 10.9! :D
If someone could help me make the addon work on my 10.9 version I would be really happy. Right now, it is installed but the feature is nowhere to be found on the forum.
I am not using this add-on, but I just did a test on localhost and a clean install of elkarte 1.0.10.
I think you downloaded the file from here https://github.com/emanuele45/topic_tags/tree/master
It seems that this version is not working properly. There are no tags to insert and no options in ACP. When I try to uninstall I get the same errors as you. At this point you can continue with the uninstall process then delete manually these 2 files:
themes\default\Tags.template.php
themes\default\languages\Tags.english.php
You may also find a folder called $themedir in the root of your forum, you can also delete it.
Go to ACP > Package Manager > Browse Packages and delete the tags package
The latest version of this addon should be this: https://github.com/emanuele45/topic_tags/tree/hashtags
but is still not working properly. I'll do more test and let you know. strange is that in the past I tested this addon on a test forum and worked fine.
Thank you so much for looking into this! :)
I'll do as you say and uninstall it the unconventional way according to your steps, and hope that this addon can be updated and work again, :)
Best,

You are welcome. I think the only error is in the xml file since doesn't install and uninstall correctly. As soon as I get to my pc I'll do some tests and let you know.
Awesome, thank you! :)
I did some tests, I corrected the paths into package-info.xml but without success
<require-file name="Tags.controller.php" destination="CONTROLLERDIR" />
<require-file name="Tags.subs.php" destination="SUBSDIR" />
<require-file name="Tags.template.php" destination="$themedir" />
<require-file name="Tags.english.php" destination="$languagedir" />
<require-file name="tags.css" destination="$themedir/css" />
<require-file name="tags.js" destination="$themedir/script" />
should be
<require-file name="Tags.controller.php" destination="CONTROLLERDIR" />
<require-file name="Tags.subs.php" destination="SUBSDIR" />
<require-file name="Tags.template.php" destination="THEMEDIR" />
<require-file name="Tags.english.php" destination="LANGUAGEDIR/english" />
<require-file name="tags.css" destination="THEMEDIR/css" />
<require-file name="tags.js" destination="THEMEDIR/scripts" />
same paths should be applied to uninstall, but the problem is this:
<hook hook="integrate_mark_read_button" file="SOURCEDIR/subs/TabularCategories.subs.php" function="tabular_categories" />
which has nothing to do with this addon and I have no idea how to integrate the hooks from this add-on.
Anyway Emanuele mentioned that this version is not developed anymore:
At this point let's hope that
@emanuele will have soon a working internet connection and find the time to fix this add-on.
Ahh, okay. Well, thank you again for delving into this and finding the answer. I will have to get by without the addon then. Much obliged!
Best Regards,

Yeah... I hope to have it back at some point.
Tomorrow it's one week since I first reported and yesterday I was able to speak with a person and they said they didn't have any report on the problem...
/me needs the facepalm emoticon. facepalm
BTW which version did you try to install? (Provided I'm pretty sure both are broken.)
This one. ;) https://github.com/emanuele45/topic_tags/tree/master
Thank you for looking into it!
