XF 2.2 Questions about tags

[Robert9]

I have some tags like

mercedes
porsche
ford

now i want to have the tags car and cars for all threads with the tags above.
I dont want to use sql, if not needed. Can i do this with xf or any addon, please?

 

[Robert9]

Hmm, funny, funny!
I tried
/admin.php?threads/batch-update

Then i search for tags "ford".
The results are all threads, not only the 123 threads with the tag "ford".

Maybe ... the problem comes from one of two addons like XFA Tags Generator and/or Tags Essentials, because one of them adds the search-field "tags" a second time. With deactivated addons, i have one search-field left and can do my search like it should be.

I have selected now some threads, but in the next step i cant add or remove any tags.
Huuuhhhh?! There is really now way to mass add some tags to selected threads?

Using the batch update function and entering a tag works for me on multiple installations but it can't be used to tag threads.

Ok, seems we have it here:

The problem comes from an addon, that adds a second form_field to the search_form.
