API endpoint to list all tags

[KT_]

At one point there was an API endpoint to list all tags, similarly to the "All Categories" endpoint that currently exists.

Is this no longer available?

(I've looked through the dispatching code and can't see anything, and with a bit of lower-level fiddling I couldn't get something suitable to work, so I've left it for now.)

Hi,

here all API endpoint definitions: https://api-docs.phpmyfaq.de/

I misspoke, sorry. Not an API endpoint: a URL path, similar to "/show_categories.html" so that an "All Tags" button will display the list of all available tags, similarly to the way that "All Categories" will show the list of available categories.

I had something like that in a previous (v3.x) iteration but had to remove it as I couldn't find a way to replicate it in v4.

Hi,

we had a tag cloud some versions ago as far as I remember. It was on the startpage. Do you want it back?

In a perfect world, it would be helpful. In my experience, giving users as many possible starting points for the answer(s) they're looking for always helps.

(That said, I wouldn't want to distract from important work on 4.1 itself. If I ever have the time, I can look into whether I could code it myself, but that may not happen in the near future.)

(Also, unless I'm totally misremembering, it was just an alphabetical(?) listing of all tags. So really from a user's point of view, looking for help with "X", it functioned more like an index than anything.)

Hi,

there was never an alphabetical listing in the frontend, but in the admin backend. For glossary items we implemented a list, but this is still present in the 4.x versions.
