XF 1.3 How can I retrieve tagged data?

[rhodes]

Hello,

I would like to retrieve posts with a certain tag and use this information in another application.

Let's say the tag is "Jeffery Deaver", then I could retrieve data through this link:

http://mydomain.com/community/tags/jeffery+deaver/

or via search

http://mydomain.com/community/search/18581/?q=Jeffery+Deaver

Of course in both cases the result is a complete page. How can I only get the corresponding posts?

Do I have to use the API or is there an RSS feed available?

Thank you for your help.

regards, rhodes

You would have to ask the author of the tags addon you're using.

Ok, but what about the second case? search is xf core.

Search will return results from any indexed post content.

OK, but search would return a complete html page with header, logo etc. What I need is the raw data of the search result. Any ideas if I can do this?

I'm not sure what it is you're trying to do.

I have another website (no XF) and I want to add a html block (block 1) to one of the sidebars.

block 1 contains 10 text links.

• My first text link to an xf post tagged with "Jefferey Deaver"
• My second text link to an xf post tagged with "Jefferey Deaver"
  
• ...My 10th text link to an xf post tagged with "Jefferey Deaver"

the linked text should be the xf post title. The question is how I can retrieve this data from XF.

It will require custom development.

Thank you, @Brogan , I was afraid of that
