Tagged Article List not works

Hitsch's Avatar Hitsch
We have three menu items, of type Tag Blog Page. Each menu item filters posts with a specific tag.

Now we want to display them, but the code
{articles tags="current" include-child-tags="true" ordering="publish_up DESC" limit="1-12"}[title]{/articles}
does not take into account the menu item car, the result is always (by any menuitem) the same. What can we do?

The tags="current" refers to the tags attached to the article you place the {articles} tag in. Or if you place it somewhere else (like in a module), it refers to the article currently being viewed. So that only works in article views.

Does this mean that we can use
{articles}
on a category blog page to show all articles in the category, but on a tag list page {articles} will always show all posts regardless of this menu item type, correct?

So is there no way to display posts on a tag list blog page via
{articles}
?

Not via the "current" way, no.

Probably the (non-SEF) URL of the tag list page contains the id of the tag.
If so, you can probably do:
tags="input:id"
