My tags index page shows 12 iterations of an empty tag (i.e. "#") throughout my various CheckVist pages. But I can't view them because clicking the tag on that page leads to a search for empty "#", which is not searchable.

  1. I did a full backup and did a multi-page search through all pages for this: 
    tags=""

    ....and for this:

    tags="#"

    But it came up empty. So I'm not sure what my Tags page is actually reporting.

  2. I was curious and checked my tags. There was one like Jim Leff described. After renaming it to a proper word, a search took me to a task. But there was no tag on it. Probably it's something that was left over and should have been deleted.

  3. It may have been "half there". If you create a new line and add only a pound sign, it will be invisible (except if you try to edit, whereupon it reappears).

  4. Jim Leff About a new line with # sign - this happens because Checkvist treats this sign as markdown H1 header, and applies appropriate syntax.

    As for empty tags - looks like a bug, but I cannot find your account to investigate. Could you send me your account e-mail?

    Thanks,

  5. Hello Jim,

    I've taken a look. It looks like in some scenario, Checkvist creates empty tags.

    To find usages of these tags, you can use approach used by Ralf Hauber, with renaming to another tag. Alternatively, you can simply delete them from the same Manage tags popup.

    It is not clear when it happens, but I have a suspicion that it can be related to item editing in m.checkvist.com. But so far, I could not reproduce the problem.

    It would be great if you could recall when and how those empty tags could appear (by renaming the empty tag to non-empty and doing the search)

    Thanks,

  6. Kirill Maximov maybe this example (mp4 video) where the Chrome extension is used to enter a tag is useful for finding the cause of empty hash tags: http://bit.ly/chkv_empty_hash

  7. Ralf Hauber Thanks a lot for reproducing the problem! Hopefully, will fix with the next update :)

  8. Aha! I was just coming here to report the same issue. I just started using the "tt" popup and that's when these empty tags began appearing.
