@kofaysi please test (how to: https://docs.joomla.org/Testing_Joomla!_patches)

@SharkyKZ
Shall not we do a similar patch for mod_tags_similar?

@infograf768, no, mod_tags_similar doesn't have this issue.

I have tested this item 🔴 unsuccessfully on cc7bcd8

The Tags - Popular module counts correctly the number of the articles the user can see in their user-level.

But, the Tags - Popular module items are linked to list all items of articles, weblinks and contacts together after clicking in the tag. And the count number misses the number of weblinks and contacts.

I'm sorry, I'm hesitating to write tested successfully.

That is expected behavior.

Do you mean that the module itself is stricken by a "multiple personality disorder"? If that is acceptable then the PR works as expected.

Tags component supports multiple content types. Tag view displays all content types by default, although filtering by type capability does exist. It's not implemented in the module though.

And the count number misses the number of weblinks and contacts.

Can you double check this? I can't reproduce the issue.

Negative. The number next to the tags includes the number of contacts and weblinks, but sometimes it differs: the list (after clicking on a tag) includes sometimes more items than the count displayed next to the tag. I think that the list includes items of the nested tags (sub-tags). The count include only items of that particular (parent) tag.

Note: it was a coincidence before in count of the articles (with nested tags, too) and total count related to that (parent) tag.

I think it is correct that the counts in the module are related to the parent tags only and they ignore the children tags. On the other hand, it is a very good idea to let the user know that there is more content available and show them the content somehow. It is unfortunate that the list of a content to a tag and its children tags is melted into a mixed list (titles are sorted alphabetically, aren't they?). I think that the generated list shouldn't be mixed.

• It should list content to the requested (parent) tag and then list the content to the children (optional) with new sub-title for each: "children tag sub-tag" follows.
• Or, the list can be strictly that of the parent tag and the list of its children tag should be offered for the user.
  I'm aware that the discussion is diverging away from the original topic and optionally another PR is needed somewhere else.

@kofaysi I suggest to open a new Issue to discuss the topic (also reference to this Issue).

Works as expected. Counts items (Contacts, Content, Weblinks) to a tag. Ignores items to the children tags of the counted tag.
