Adding Placeholders to Events List Search

    I have been customising the events list search table from the Event Manager Options -> Formatting page using ‘#_CATEGORYNAME’ and ‘#_TAGNAME’ placeholders. The category name placeholder works fine, but the tag name placeholer just prints the actual placeholer instead of the dynamic content. Am I doing something wrong? It seems strange that only one of these similar placeholders is functioning correctly.

    I have found that I can use the ‘#_EVENTCATEGORIES’ and ‘#_EVENTTAGS’ placeholders but I do not want to provide links, which these placeholders do.

    Thanks in advance.

    Events list format header

    <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="events-table" >
    <thead>
        <tr>
		<th class="event-time" width="150">Date/Time</th>
		<th class="event-description" width="*">Event</th>
		<th class="event-description" width="300">Event Category</th>
		<th class="event-description" width="300">Event Tag</th>
	</tr>
   </thead>
   <tbody>

    Events list format

    <tr>
	<td>
        #_EVENTDATES<br/>
        #_EVENTTIMES
        </td>
        <td>
        #_EVENTLINK
        {has_location}<br/><i>#_LOCATIONNAME, #_LOCATIONTOWN #_LOCATIONSTATE</i>{/has_location}
         </td>
         <td>#_EVENTCATEGORIES #_CATEGORYNAME
         </td>
         <td>#_EVENTTAGS #_TAGNAME
         </td>
 </tr>

    Events list format footer
    </tbody></table>

    This seems to be a double-post of this question:

    The reason I posted them separately is because this post is regarding the placeholders not working. The other post is about how to change the formatting of the placeholder output.

    How do I get the #_TAGNAME placeholder to work in the event list?
