One issue we run up against, when dealing with this situation, is the
question: When you select multiple tags, are you indicating that you
want to display journal entries that contain ANY of those tags? Or do
you want to display journal entries that contain ALL of those tags?

>From your scenario, it sounds like you're interested in showing entries
that contain ANY of those tags?

We could of course add an additional configuration option to let the
user specify ANY/ALL, but I'd prefer to avoid adding further config
options if we can (because it just makes the "7 clicks to do anything"
problem worse), so if ANY is the more common use-case, I'd say it's best
to just stick with that.

Title:
  wishlist: ability to display journal entries using mulitple tags

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:

Bug description:
  Mahara 1.8

  Hi Everyone, 
  At the moment displaying journals by tag allows a user to choose only one tag.

  In a scenario where a student writes lots of journal entries for a
  course say "Underwater basket weaving", but wants some to be public
  too, they would create two pages: one for the unit and one for the
  public.

  Lets say they assigned the tags to every post "UBW" and to a few of
  them they add "public".

  They create their course page and add journal entries with UBW. No
  worries!

  They create their public page for UBW stuff and add the tag .... which
  one? They can't add public because that would pickup any other post
  from oter journals tagges "public", they can't add journals tagged
  "UBW" because that would add non public posts.

  Wishlist item is that: user can display posts with UBW AND Public

  Cheers,
  Shane.
