Many forums allow to add tags which are useful to have the topic found by users. I have read the FAQ but didn't find how to do it. Is it possible? If not, is it going to be added? Thanks!

Thank you a lot for the help! One more question: but if a forum allows max 3 tags and another allows 5 max and I put 5 tags, is the program going to send 3 tags to both forums or is it going to send 5 tags and fail to post in the forum that allows max 3 tags?

It will fail on that forum which allows 3 tags. (Or if forum auto corrects the tags it might not fail)

Now you can only later edit message and retry in the status table of failed post.

Ok thanks! Maybe it would be a good idea for the next version to add a field in the forums' templates to set the max amount of tags and in case it overpasses the program trims the tags from the left (ie: I set 5 tags tag1,tag2,tag3,tag4,tag5 and the max amount for forumx is 3 it sends tag1,tag2,tag3)

Also I saw some forums where they don't allow that one tag exceeds say 20 characters so if I send tag1,tag2,taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag3 it would be good that the program send tag1,tag2 in that forums.

I don't think it would be too difficult to implement (it would imply the use of functions to trim strings with the delimiter ',' and counting the lenght of the string)

Should I post this suggestion for the new version in Suggestions?
