Interesting concept. Design a skin that will show the little tag icons, and while the function itself works - adding them, clicking on them... But didn’t bother to add the ability to see them as part of the blog post - rendering them more or less moot. So, I need to add a custom ability... And I can view how it’s done, where? How? And will I have to add it back if/when there are updates to the skin?
Other sw providers - if the skin doesn’t support all the features, it’s not released until it does. I’m just amazed...
Sorry this is proving frustrating for you. Jamroom works a bit differently than other frameworks you might have used before, in that you can do A LOT more than it seems on the surface. While other frameworks are going to do like you mention (don't support anything unless it shows on the site), Jamroom is used as a "core" for sites that don't even output HTML. There is a huge amount of flexibility in the templates - frankly more than can be "crammed" in to a single template, and it all depends on WHAT you want to do. Once the concept of template functions is understood, you can literally do anything you want - you're not restricted by those things we've "thought of" ahead of time.
We know this causes more initial friction for a lot of users that are looking for something that is more "plug and play" but to be 100% honest with you, we get a lot of "refugees" from these other systems when they run in to a brick wall with what can and cannot be done on their other system.
Can you let me know what you mean by this:

It's not clear to me what you're looking to do. You can add 50 tags to a blog post if you want, then those posts will show up in the tags section so you can see them grouped together. Maybe you're wanting to use them in a way we haven't seen before?
Thanks!
