Is it possible to specify "user functions" as a pagelist selection criteria ? I thought I've seen it in a receipe.

Then - if you enter all the tags in a fox-field it shoul be easy to write such a user-function in php to do the query to a page-var.

eg

tags are entered via fox-form in the page-var "tags" like:

:tags: tag1 tag2 tag3


then the pagelist markup could be something like:

(:pagelist match="/(tag1|tag2)/,tags" ...

or could this possibly be done by using these markup-expressions {(...)}  ?
Is it possible to extend the options of the pagelist without rewriting the whole pagelist-function ?

By the way: would be nice to have a "picklist" for the tag-field showing the already used tags (sample: tbGTD) I've two extensions like the datepicker which can replace or add values of a list to a field. Idea: below or above an tag-input-field a list of knows tags is displayed (each as a link (href)). Klicking on the tag, it will be added at the end of the tag-input-field.

The tags don't have to be listed in a certain order when creating them?

No, and they could be anywhere in the page, not only in a PTV. However it
may appear not intuitive to search word1 "or" word2 :
  (:pagelist _tag1 _tag2:) will find pages with BOTH tags

To list pages containing either _todo or _someday you need 2 pagelists,
and if a page contains both tags, it will appear in both pagelists.

That's okay, at least for me. At this point my main concern was making
sure I got pages with just a particular tag, and I was running into
the issue where "weekly" would pick-up "biweekly" entries or something
like "ING" would pick-up "shopping".

I guess you could address the issue of having something appear in both
of the pagelists above by doing something like this?

(:pagelist _todo _someday:)
(:pagelist -_todo _someday:)
(:pagelist _todo -_someday:)

As long as you had your formatting setup probably it would probably
look and be okay.

Is there an easy way to add the _ to my existing tags?

No. Hopefully you and the users of your recipe don't have too many
pages yet. :-)

Well, I have a pretty good bit, but I'll just deal with it. I need to
change my forms for users of the recipe though to give some direction
when entering tags in the tag field. Something like "Proceed tags with
"_" underscore to allow for better filtering."

Thanks again,

Any opinions on this? Is # a bad idea? Is just having a preceding
character good enough? I believe it should be.

Then I could have something like $:tags=*#weekly* and
$:tags=*#biweekly* and the *#weekly* shouldn't pick up the #biweekly
tag.

Hi. You can use the underscore character like this: _weekly _biweekly
_critical _done _home _computer. Then, use either your PTV search, or even
just plaintext search :

  !! Stuff that I could do now
  (:pagelist _home -_done -_waitingfor:)
