    Hi,

    Many thanks for the link! Although it does not explain exactly how tags parsing & display works, it helped me organize my tags, so now the maximum tags are displayed in plugins directory and the plugin can be discovered by tag search.

    For those who hit the same issue, here how tag display/search works: only the first FIVE tags are displayed, yes, however if there are too little plugins tagged w/ the same tag (there are less than 3 plugins w/ the same tag according to my experiments) the tag is not displayed. And this does not mean that the 6th tag is taken into account. If some of your, or all of your first FIVE tags are not popular, you may end up w/ less than 5, or none tags displayed on the plugins page.

    About the search by tag (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/tags/your-tag/) – the documentation says that the first 12 tags will appear in search results, but again if some of these tags are used by less than 3 plugins, your plugin won’t appear in search results. The other plugins appear because these unpopular tags are among their first FIVE tags. Weird ??

    Hope this helps!
