Hello,

I want to bind the tag to the category in DW Question & Answer. So when user selects category, he was suggested to select a list of relevant tags. Is this really to implement?!

Sorry for my bad english.

Hi Constantine,
I hope you resolve this issue… Do you mind giving me a hand with this? I’m trying to do the same thing with tags.

thanks!

To display tag as drop downlist like categories in ask question, go to your theme folder and create a new folder , named it "dwqa-templates" .
Inside your new folder, create a new file: “question-submit-form.php”.
Now, open up the new file in notepad or any code editor, and copy/paste the code at this link:
URL: http://snippi.com/s/j48zs9y
Finally, add the following code to the functions.php file.

add_filter('dwqa_ask_form_tag_output','dwqa_ask_form_tag_output',10,1);

function dwqa_ask_form_tag_output($output){

 $args=array(

 'orderby' => 'count',

 'order' => 'DESC',

 'hide_empty' => false,

 );

 $tag_terms=get_terms('dwqa-question_tag', $args ) ;

 $output='<select name="question-tag" id="question-tag" class="postform">';

 $output.='<option value="">Select question Tags</option>';

 foreach($tag_terms as $tag_term)

 $output.='<option value="'.$tag_term->name.'">'.$tag_term->name.'</option>';

 $output.='</select>';

 return $output;

}

Hope this helps

Hi,
I was trying to do this, but I have now the following msg when trying to submit a new question:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘8.’ (T_DNUMBER) in /homepages/7/d616545537/htdocs/clickandbuilds/ProJetMe/wp-content/themes/Divi/dwqa-templates/question-submit-form.php on line 14

Can you help?

The above solution seems to work for single select from dropdown. How do I apply it for multi select of options and return the values to dwqa_ask_form_tag_output?

At the moment, the plugin does not support to make multi-select option for the tags list.
