To change the tag list delimiter, do this in your config/initializers/acts_as_taggable_on.rb:
ActsAsTaggableOn.delimiter = ' ' # use space as delimiter
If you would like to remove unused tag objects after removing taggings, add
ActsAsTaggableOn.remove_unused_tags = true
If you want force tags to be saved downcased:
ActsAsTaggableOn.force_lowercase = true
If you want tags to be saved parametrized (you can redefine to_param as well):
ActsAsTaggableOn.force_parameterize = true
If you want tags to be matched case-sensitively:
ActsAsTaggableOn.strict_case_match = true
ActsAsTaggableOn updates a counter cache on tagging operations between the Tag and Tagging model. If you are encountering deadlocks, perhaps while tagging many ActiveRecord objects in a queue, you can turn disable the tag counter cache:
ActsAsTaggableOn.tags_counter = false
and reset counters afterward with:
ActsAsTaggableOn::Tag.pluck(:id).each do |id|
ActsAsTaggableOn::Tag.reset_counters(id, :taggings)
end
An alternate solution is calculating the counter cache less often and asynchronously using a queue.
