I imported my tags and categories but I don't see a list that pops up as I type.
That would be very useful.

@bksubhuti have you configured your content type to use the tags field? Once imported and using the tags field, you will get a dropdown in which you can type ahead, select, or add new tags.

I read that this feature is working
The tags field allows you to create or use tags from your .frontmatter/database/taxonomyDb.json file (by default, none existing). When adding a tag which does not yet exist, you will have the option to create it.
I'm using hugo and I did select hugo. I'm not sure about "content type" you ask about

I'm not able to find that content type again. I think something does not work. I guess you already have this feature. When i initialized the project.. after import tags.. it didn't show the last check box step. It is still pretty cool and can do useful things.. the tags is what I really need it for though.

Content types are a way to define the structure of your content. Each content type can have its own set of fields.

For instance, a page can have a title, description, slug. That is something you can define in a content type (configured in the frontmatter.json file).

The image you shared shows that there is a mismatch between the default content type and your fields in the page. This happens most of the time during configuration of new projects.

You have the option to:

• Create a new content type
• Add missing fields to the default content type
• Change the content type (as it is a new project, you will not have any content types configured, so you cannot select this)

I suggest going for the first option, and override the default content type. Once you've done that, you can see that in your frontmatter.json file, a frontMatter.taxonomy.contentTypes setting has been configured with the fields you use in your content.

Make sure that your tags field is using type tags:

{
  "title": "Tags",
  "name": "tags",
  "type": "tags"
}

Yes, that is the default content type you get when initializing the project.

I tested out your website, and it seems to work fine on my end:

If you click on the pick your tags input, you will see a dropdown with all your tags.

maybe I didn't setup the FM correctly.
Maybe I should start again.
How to delete the stuff that makes it known to fm?
It seems that I initialize my project last. I also didn't select the github.

Ah! Now I see it, something is wrong with the mapping of the taxonomydb.json file. So it is a problem with the extension, I believe.

Can you provide more information about your environment? Which OS are you using?

Can you run the "front matter: import tags and categories" command again?

If it worked, it should have created the new taxonomydb.json file with your entries in it.

Like I said.. I want to start all over again.. rather than try to fix it. But I don't know how to start fresh. I uninstalled and reinstalled. I deleted the json file but it generated a new one.

I don't know how to get back to the initialization screen again.. not sure how to do that.
Let me know how to start fresh.. what to delete. Usually that is the quickest way.

You will just have to delete the files that were created during the setup. As you're using git, you can quickly revive them.

Manually:

Remove the frontmatter.json file and the .frontmatter folder from your project. Restart VSCode and you can start again.

I found taxonomy db json and it looks like it is empty. However, not sure the dashboard thinks it is empty.

I know, that is why you only need to run the command to import again.

Dashboard just shows the values from the file.

I deleted the folder and the json on the root. IT still "knows" my project and didn't prompt me for initialization like the first time I added the extension.

In that case, the files are not deleted.

I'll do the configuration later for you and push a PR.

okay.. i got it to reset and it worked.
I think the issue was that i didn't originally choose (or see) initialize project First and then later did "initialize"
Later I did "initialize project" but then it must have been too late.
So it is is a ux order of operations issue.

To get the full reset.. I had to uninstall , reload vsc. delete the files and reload vsc again.
Then ... i could install and it worked. It must have been in memory or something. but I did restart vsc a few times..

in any case.. it works now.. and I bet you can reproduce this error by not initializing first.

That last step was not a clickable option when I went to it.
(show dash).
But all works well. The tags popup which works will help me stop repeating or variating my tags.
I just came over from WP a month ago . So I still have some clean up to do.
I appreciate your efforts in this extension (and your support just now). It is sri lanka.. time for bed.

I appreciate your help. If you can duplicate the issue, let me know.. If not, I'll try to duplicate the issue later today.
I think you should call it "Activate Front Matter Extension" instead of initialize.

I think should not enable anything until that step is finished. That should solve all problems.
I appreciate your help. I'll try to have more feature requests later. (Even though this was already implemented).
Great work and passion for the project.!
