Filtering based on tag metadata returns unexpected results on News section #3135
Description
@ElectronicBlueberry has recently had a pull request so we can search and filter for tags on News page. It works for most things well. For example, the following URLs work as expected:
It behaves strange on the hosted website for a few tags such as TIaaS. It works for the subsite: https://galaxyproject.org/projects/esg/news/?tag=TIaaS . However, it does not work properly on the global site: https://galaxyproject.org/news/?tag=TIaaS
Interestingly, it filters for posts that have other tags (for example, this, this, and this). One guess is that this happens because of the upper-case tag. However, it works well for the esg subsite.
Does someone have a suggestion on how to solve this?
Besides, if someone wants to look for a tag such as paper in subsites like eu or freiburg, they have do it as https://galaxyproject.org/eu/news/?tag=paper or https://galaxyproject.org/freiburg/news/?tag=paper. Ideally, we would like to be able filter for tags in all sub-sites when we are filtering globally https://galaxyproject.org/news/?tag=something. At the moment, this does not work globally, if the post does not have the global or all metadata for subsites.
