After adding a new tag via the menu which appears when clicking on "add tag" in the side bar, the menu instantly closes. This is bad. It would be better if it would be possible to add more than one new tag. This is especially annoying since it takes ages until the menu appears. The best thing would be if adding and selecting tags would not happen in an extra menu. Instead it would be the best, if it would happen directly in the sidebar. Reproducible: Always
Please note that the part of the Information Panel that shows tags and allows to manipulate them is not provided by Dolphin itself, but by Nepomuk and by KFileMetaDataWidget from kdelibs (to be replaced with a new widget provided by Nepomuk at some point in the future). Please report any problems with tagging directly to Nepomuk. Thanks.
Hi I'm not sure I understand your bug report. In the edit tags menu that opens up, you can tick multiple tags. It doesn't close after choosing one tag. Could you please explain what you mean?
The problem is when I create a new tag. That new tag only stays permanently if I click ok. If want to add more than one new tag, I have to reopen the menu.
I'm still not sure I get it. Here is what I generally do - * Click on the "Add Tags" option. This opens up a dialog box containing a list of of tags * I select all the tags I want the file to be tagged with - TagA, TagB, TagC, TagD, etc. * I then click "OK". All the tags that have been selected are applied. What kind of behavior do you propose?
Yes, but if the tag does not yet exist, I need to create a new one. This is possible. But it is not possible or it is kind of hidden to create more than one new tag without closing the menu with ok.

I'm slightly reluctant to not closing the menu when pressing ok. I'm thinking of adding the possibility of adding multiple tags via ','. I cannot think of a better way. Do you have any other ideas? Apart from not closing the dialog when pressing OK.
Add "Add"-button in the line where you type in the tag. So you could do it more than once. Your option does not contractdict mine. It could be added additionally for "powerusers" since it would not be obvious. Alternative: Many of those type of windows have an additional "apply" button if you want to save a change, but do not close the window.
I confirm this problem with BalooWidgets 15.12.2: after you enter the name of new tag, you have to click Save or the tag will not be saved. And the Save button closes the tag editing dialog.
