I've made a small change to my previous "change tag" code:

it easy to change the same tagged tiddlers again (e.g., in case you made a

Re: [tw5] Re: Change tag name
Eric,
This is nice an elegant. I tested it on Tiddlywiki.com and realised perhaps
an option to also rename the tag tiddler as well, eg HelloThere
Thus the tiddlers so tagged rejoin there parent?
Otherwise my solution of renaming an existing tag tiddler is safer?

Tony

Here's another solution:
<$select tiddler="$:/temp/changetag/old" default="">
select an existing tag...
<$list
filter="[tags[]sort[]]"><>
<$edit-text tag="input" tiddler="$:/temp/changetag/new" default=""
placeholder="enter a new tag..." />
<$button> change
<$list filter="[tag{$:/temp/changetag/old}]">
<$action-listops $tiddler=<> $field="tags"
$subfilter="-[{$:/temp/changetag/old}] [{$:/temp/changetag/new}]" />
<$action-deletetiddler $tiddler="$:/temp/changetag/old" />
<$button> reset
<$action-deletetiddler $filter="[prefix[$:/temp/changetag]]" />
Change these tiddlers:
<$list filter="[tag{$:/temp/changetag/old}]"> <$link/>
Notes:
* The $select gives you a droplist of all current tags in the document
(plus a prompt text at the top of the droplist)
* The selected tag is stored in $:/temp/changetag/old
* The $edit-text lets you input a new tag name into $:/temp/changetag/new
* The change $button loops over all tiddler matching the old tag and uses
$action-listops to remove the old tag and add the new tag
* The change $button also resets the selection in the list of tags (since
the selected tag no longer exists in the document)
* The reset $button clears both temp inputs
* The $list that appear below the form controls shows you which tiddlers
will be re-tagged

[tw5] Re: Change tag name
Gideon,
Using the tag pill on a tiddler,
Or <> click the first line the tags name, this goes
to the tags tiddler (if it was one) or allow you to edit it so it becomes a
tiddler as well as a tag.
Save it
Rename the tags actual tiddler and it will update wherever the tag is used.
*Check ** Update test to Testit in the tags and list fields of other
tiddlers* to be sure.

Tony
