[Patch] Tag redirects to existing wiki page instead of listing tagged pages

[JaeWook Choi]

If there is exisiting wiki page whose name is identical to a tag, clicking on the tag results in redirection to an existing wiki page instead of listing tagged pages.

For example, clicking on MyTag tag results in 'wiki/MyTag' wiki page instead of 'tags/?q=MyTag' if 'wiki/MyTag' page already exists.

I believe the latter, ie. listing of the tagged pages, should be more natural behavior in such situation.

This is intentional. An option to disable the behaviour might be useful though.

The behavior is very confusing. Tag links should redirect to the tag listing pages everytime.

It's quite normal to have a topic overview page linking to some sub wiki pages. All these pages get the same tag in reason of the same topic. In this case you can't list the tagged sub pages using tags tab anymore.

Yes you can: [[ListTagged(blah)]]

Patch that adds a config option to disable links to wiki pages

Hi!

I created a patch that adds a "wiki_page_link" option that can be used to disable links to wiki pages. See wiki_page_link.patch​

This has been waiting for much too long, sorry.

(In [10621]) TagsPlugin: Control default link destination in tags cloud, refs #3754 and #9059.

Known behavior to always link to an existing wiki page with name equal to the tag is still default, but configurable by new wiki_page_link boolean option.
