Hello.
I have the same problem as described by many other : I can't add tags. Even when I add one with all my plugins deactivated, WP doesn't remember them (ie : when I edit the post, there is no tag mentioned in the box).
Seems to be a bug and not a plugin compatibility issue, no ?
I've now upgraded 4 blogs and haven't had a single problem with tags (or anything else for that matter but maybe I'm just lucky).
Have you tried switching to the default theme? It does sound as if something is interfering with post edit functions.

You're right : I will try this. Hope it's not the problem, as the support of my theme is discontinued.

Well. I've just activated the default theme and I have the same problem.
Tags just disappear once the post is published.
Ok - onwards...
That's about all I can think of.

I have identified the problem... but have no idée of the solution.
After having done all the 5 steps you mentioned without success, I thought of one file that I had to modified : wp-db.php.
Indeed, I had a problem of character encoding. I have therefore a specific file where I added this
mysql_query("set character_set_results = 'utf8';", $this->dbh);
mysql_query("set character_set_connection = 'utf8';", $this->dbh);
mysql_query("set character_set_client = 'utf8';", $this->dbh);I will check if the file has changed since 2.7, and try to enforce my workaround another time.

I did and it's quite a solution. Now, I can add tags from the box under the post, not from the box on the right of the post...
And it has put quite a mess in my blog. Some new messages, in english. Widgets have disappeared.
Nevertheless, the hypothesis of a wordpress bug seems incorrect ;-)

Quirm.net? I'm trying to get some simple how-to articles up there for some of the more common problems.
With regard to your ongoing problems, what changes did you make to wp-db.php? Would it be worth making a backup of that file and then uploading a fresh copy from WP 2.8? I'm just wondering if you're going to end up placing patch on top of patch...
Ah! Just popped back in to ask if Koztoujours was using hyperdb!

Since I don't know what hyperDB is, I guess I'm not using it.
Here are all the plugins I use (I know, I know, I shouldn't use so much plugins).

Hadn't seen your last comment, esmi.
The only change I made to wp-db was to add the three lines of code I mentioned hereabove.
If I do not do this, the result is bad encoding + widgets going wild, apparently.
hyperDB is a server-based tool, so that would be down to your hosting provider. It might be worth contacting them and asking if they can update it.

Ok, I'm contacting them.

I am having this same problem. I upgraded directly from 2.7.1 to 2.8.2 and I can no longer add tags (neither from quick edit or edit).
I also cannot edit comments once they have been created.
I tried disabling ALL plugins but am still having the same results. I have tried both Firefox 3.0.11, and 3.5.1.
I also tried "re-upgrading" by going to Tools | Upgraded | Re-install Automatically. That does not change the behavior either.
I am using the newest version 2.0.1 of WooThemes FreshNews theme. When I switch back to the default WP theme, I still have the same problems.
Please offer insight. Thank you.
