Request: Better TAG Organisation

Features
1

Is is complicated to work with the tags, through the whole Joplin world.

Desktop App (Linux)

  1. Why are the Tags not sorted in the drop down list?

  2. why not directly add tags with autocomplete like evernote here:

  3. autocomplete tags on mobile (tested Android)

  4. multi edit tags

Best wishes, Tatoosh

They should be sorted that’s probably a bug

edit:
I really thought that there was sorting code but I checked the history and apparently I missed that…
Regrettably I can’t run joplin right now, and I don’t have time to troubleshoot my setup. But if anyone wants to take this on the change would be really easy.
it’s in ElectronClient/app/gui/MainScreen.jsx and where the tagSuggestions are created you’ll just need to duplicate the sorting code from startTags (a couple lines above).

Thanks @CalebJohn. I totally screwed up my previous reply. I can have a look at it tomorrow.
