This topic has tags not allowed by this category: '<tagname>'

I am getting way too many of these Discourse errors …

This topic has tags not allowed by this category: '<tagname>'

… when I try to create a new forum filter tag (that is definitely needed.)

@jody Can the number of filter tags per category be increased ?

Or is there a way to clean out the seldom used tags thereby giving more room ?


As an example, I needed to create a ‘su2020’ tag. But most of the categories would not let me.
So I had to reassign a topic to the Extensions category, before the system would let me create this tag.
Finally then I could move to topic to the Technical Problems > SketchUp category with the new tag.
