   Hi !

   I'm trying to mage a custom wp_query to return posts with a certain tag from a certain category. Here is my code:
   

   $bios = new WP_Query();
   
   	$args = 'cat=6870&tag=tag1,tag2&showposts=2';
           $bios->query($args);
   ?>
   <?php if ($bios->have_posts()) : ?>
   ...

   I know I have posts in the category with the right tags... but the result stays empty... any idea why ?

   Have you tried throwing the post id to the get_the_tags function? So, something like this:
   

   <div class="tag_list">tags:
   <?php
       $tags = get_the_tags($post->ID);
       $total_tag_count=0;
       foreach($tags as $tag) {$total_tag_count++;}
       $tcount = 0;
       foreach($tags as $tag)
       {
           $tag_name = $tag->name;
           $tag_slug = $tag->slug;
           echo '<a href="/tag/'.$tag_slug.'" title="'.$tag_name.'">'.$tag_name.'</a>';
           $tcount++;
           if ($tcount < $total_tag_count)
           {
              echo ", ";
           }
       }
   ?>
   </div>

   You could probably clean up the first foreach so you only have to use one, but this should give you a general idea.
