massimo thanks for the response. It is good to see someone else
either has insomnia or likes to get up way to early. I swapped out
the code from the tagging plugin with the code form the wiki, but
still have the same problem. In essence I cannot use the plugin as is
because of the separate community databases (a design decision that
provides clear data partitioning and performance, at the cost of all
these funky issues).
However, now that I removed the 3 lines of code in the top of the
tagging controller, the init function is getting invoked. This is
pretty painful sledding - what do you use for debugging? I would love
some type of debugger with breakpoints, etc.
any ideas on why the tagging view is never getting invoked and I get
'loading.."
