"Posts Tagged xxx" In Archives In Default Theme Doesn't Show Tag Name

[Viper007Bond]

Click a tag under a post. The tag is missing from the title.

Simply put, single_cat_title() isn't outputting the tag name.

I think the problem is that single_cat_title() is meant to output the tag name.

Sorry that really wasn't clear. What I meant is that single_cat_title() isn't meant to output the tag name and there probably should be an equivalent single_cat_title().

Adds single_tag_title function

uses new function in default theme

I ran into problems writing the single_tag_title() function. I'm not entirely sure what purpose

$value = sanitize_title($field);

served in taxonomy.php and it appeared to me to break that particular function when searching based on a slug.

I added a patch for the single_cat_title() function in wp-includes/general-template.php.

I haven't tested it fully but it seems to work.

Hmm, guess it'd help if I noticed that 'cat' != 'tag', huh? D'oh.

(In [6074]) Set tag_id to first tag in multi tag queries. Have single_cat_title() fallback to single_tag_title() if is_tag so that existing category templates will work with tags. fixes #4506
