How to Create and Use Tags in an Apex Form

SteveQuinlivan

Morning,

I have a question regarding how to create and use tags in Apex.

I have a form for feedback, and would like to add the ability for people to add tags.

I would love this to look and work similar to how we ask a question on this forum

Can anyone explain how this can be done? How do i store the data? (i have an sql table behind the form), how do i build it in the apex form? Is the list of tag pre determined or can users add to it?

Many thanks for you help

Regards

The native Popup Lov facilitates multi-value selection (from 19.x), or the Select2 plugin can do the same. This would be from a known set of values.

They will store the values in a delimited string for that field, which you than then use apex_string.split to break it up as necessary.

If you need to dynamically add tags, then you may consider the United Codes List Extension plugin
