The issue of tags wasn't addressed. I want to be able to view only the tags in the category I opened, not all of the tags. Since I can't just view tags from just one category, then I'm not understanding the purpose of tags?
I have a recipe category. I was using the tags to differentiate between types of recipes i.e. soups, casseroles etc. But when I open tags, it's just a jumble of tags from all categories. I don't even have the option to organize the tags. Like at least in alphabetical form or something. And since I can't do any of the aforementioned things I wanted to do, I guess I'm just not understanding the function the tags serve.
