Toggle Tag

By Timothy FosterTimothy Foster

Description

You can utilize a combination of iftags and set-tags in order to create a toggle tag button, one that will add a tag to the page if it isn't already there or remove it if it is. The amount of code for this can be slightly unwieldy and difficult to read, however:

[[iftags _hidden]][[button tags -_hidden text="Unhide"]][[/iftags]][[iftags -_hidden]][[button tags +_hidden text="Hide"]][[/iftags]]

So… why not make this easier?

[[include :snippets:toggletag |tag=_hidden |add=Hide |remove=Unhide]]

Syntax

Attribute Default Description
tag _deleted The tag you want the button to add/remove
add Delete The button's text when adding the tag
remove Undelete The button's text when removing the tag
inline @@ If TRUE, allows for this Snippet to be used inline.

Code

[[include :snippets:toggletag |tag= |add= |remove= ]]

In order to make the code work inline, you need to pass TRUE to the inline attribute, like in the following example:

[[include :snippets:toggletag |tag=_hidden |add=Hide |remove=Unhide |inline=true]]
[!----] | \
[[include :snippets:toggletag |tag=_deleted |add=Delete |remove=Undelete |inline=TRUE]]

If you supply none of the attributes, then the toggle tag for _deleted will automatically be implemented.

In action

You can see a quick example of this snippet here.

Note: As iftags statements cannot be nested, you cannot use this snippet within another iftags body.
