Duplicate entry on hit Return for suggestion about tagify

[jzohrab]

Hi @yairEO -- I can't reproduce it all the time. Basically, I enter the full tag, and then at the end I hit "enter". My tagify settings use a suggestion list, but are not restricted.to the whitelist (user can add new entries).

I'm using the files from the CDN referenced on the README: https://github.com/yairEO/tagify?tab=readme-ov-file#option-1---import-from-cdn -- I downloaded these files and use them locally in my Flask project.

If there is something more up-to-date I should use, let me know.

ps - thank you so much for your responses. Running a free open source project of any time is a real investment of time, and a real contribution. Much appreciated!

It hasn't happened for a while now, so I believe this should be closed. If it happens again, I'll try to collect more useful information. I'll assume it's a user error until proven otherwise.

Re the open-source and satisfaction: I hear you, I'm the same, though not on the scale of tagify. tagify will be helping me out on my project, Lute, a free open-source tool for people to learn languages through reading -- so you'll be having an impact there as well.

I'll close this issue, but perhaps in the meantime you can let me know what attribution is good for tagify. Would an "acknowledgements" page be sufficient for you, with a brief note about your work? Cheers and best wishes! jz

Hi, can you please add steps to reproduce?
I don't understand how to get to this situation

[yairEO]

Thanks! Yeah I've invested probably a thousand hours at least for this codebase alone, and I have many other open-source projects as well :) it's very time consuming with no benefits what so ever except satisfaction for helping developers by creating good tools

Without steps-to-reproduce this is going to be difficult to fix.. does this happen often?
I assume more would have complained if it's that big of a bug (which looks like a very annoying bug to me)

I was facing the same issue. It is caused by a combination of having the whitelist fetched with Ajax and dropdown.hide().

@jzohrab I see that you use Ajax for fetching the whitelist as well, and I assume you do it in a similar manner as the example in README.md (which, unfortunately, is causing issues) — see if not calling dropdown.hide() before making the whitelist request helps.

Kudos to @bdteo for figuring it out in #884

Thank you @Biszu , I changed tagify.loading(true).dropdown.hide() to tagify.loading(true) and this may have addressed the issue. That changed also fixed a very small hiccup: before, I used to have to press the down arrow twice in order to get into the suggestion list; after making the change, I only have to press the down arrow once. A small fix, but still nice.
