   Hey all, I am working on a rather customized theme and am integrating a "results count" that displays the number of items returned when viewing a category, tag or search page.

   Category and search are all set using:
   new WP_Query("cat=XX");
   or
   new WP_Query("s=XX");
   respectively.

   However, when I use what I assumed would work for tags pages:
   new WP_Query(tag=XX);
   it doesn't return anything.

   Does WP_Query not work the same way for tags as it does for categories and search results?

   Any help is much appreciated.

   Works, but not with the new_query string,
   just the simple loop and then
   add tag by name instead of cat by ID.

   Could you provide a simple loop with tag example please?

   Thanks

   I noticed that tag= won't work but tag_in= works. Running 2.8. Weird.
