#4 Updated by Samer - about 12 years ago

Tags: I would NOT suggest keywords based on short/long name, as in most cases the name should not be a keyword (Fractagora, Kune...). Very few would be something like "Education project in Ecuador".

#5 Updated by Vincent Osele about 12 years ago

Remove word under 2 or 3 char, then add the other words as keyword.
In your example, Education, Project and Ecuador
Remark that it is only suggestion. User could adapt, remove them if he want.

An other way is to add a button near edit text: "Fill keywords for me from name". Ok it is too long for a button, but it is the idea. :-)

#6 Updated by Samer - almost 12 years ago

  1. short name: allow usage of - and _ char => wontfix. The commit that was fixing it was reverted, in order to be very strict with UNIX-names and allow just alphanumeric.
  2. suggest a short name from long name => just done
  3. description: copy the short name inside when entered (if empty) => I don't think this is convenient.
  4. Tag: why is it mandatory ? => I'd keep it mandatory
  5. Tag: suggest keywords from short name (or long name also) => I would not in the majority of cases. As said before, the case of "Education project in Ecuador" (where it makes sense) is not common at all. Most group names should never be keywords.
  6. how keyword are separates, with which character => clarified: "comma-separated"
