Collections Page - Filter by Tags

[jmakowski1123]

If a Collection has content populated in it, users can filter that content using tags.

See implementation details for filtering by tags at the Library level: #1048. A similar implementation needs to happen at the Collection level, but the filtering is limited to content contained within the Collection.

I would expect that when I select a child tag in the filter, that the implicit parent tag would auto-select at the same time? This mirrors the behavior when tags are added to content. I'm trying to check the current behavior in the course search but it's not working on our instance for some reason. @bradenmacdonald is that your interpretation too? Wouldn't the search parameters technically be "Description Status AND Libraries Relaunch Taxonomy"?

@jmakowski1123 Technically there is no difference between "Description Status AND Libraries Relaunch Taxonomy" and just searching "Description Status" - because it's impossible for a component to have "Description Status" without also having the parent tag. So I think what's there is correct.

You can also argue it would be correct to display a semi-checked checkbox on the parent, and I think that's reasonable though personally I wouldn't bother. I wouldn't recommend putting a full checkbox on that parent, because that usually implies all the child tags are selected, and they're not.

What page is not working - can you let me know? It should be working.

Got it. This good.
