Double tags?

  • Can someone tell me why I’m getting double tags? I am running both Jerome’s Keywords and Ultimate Tag Warrior. I tried uninstalling and deleting UTW, and then I had no tags on my older posts. When I uploaded the newest version, suddenly I have the same problem again. I only put tags in using UTW, but they appear twice.

    Also, while I didn’t have UTW, I also installed the widget Keywords Tagcloud.

  • It should probably be mentioned that these plugins were not meant to run at the same time.

    I am not an expert, but these plugins are probably adding a custom field called “keywords” to your posts. This info becomes part of your post’s data even if you disable the plugin and start up another. This allows them to be compatible to other keyword plugins, and probably allows search engines to view the extra data as part of the “meta keyword” tag.

    UTW has an OPTIONS area in your admin which allows it to insert the tags into your posts without you needing to hack your theme. For instance: you are allowed to add an in-site comma-separated taglist at the top of your post, and another list of your tags which link to Technorati at the bottom of your post.

    So it sounds like I don’t need either the Jerome’s Keywords or the keyword tagcloud that works with it (it’s also doubled the tagcloud, like parentsparents etc.

    Thanks, I’ll try disabling those and see what happens.
