Problem with tags / labels

    Hi.

    I am developing my first wordpress theme and I have to say that I know very little of php (I know enough about html and css).

    That said, my problem is the tags of the posts: when I click on any tag should be open a page where they are all posts that have the same label (tag), but I still see all posts, even those that don’t have the selected label.

    I’m using the function <? php the_tags(); ?> inside de loop, the structure is like this:

    <aside>

<h4>Tags</h4>

<ul class=”tags”>

<?php the_tags( ”, ‘&nbsp – &nbsp’, ” ); ?>

</aside>

    No problem so far, becose I can see the tags of each post.

    Inside the other single.php (which I use as a page template to view posts belonging to a specific category) I insert a query to call the posts that have the same label (tag):

    <?php

$args = array(
‘post_type’ => ‘post’,
‘tag’ => “ tag name ”);

$query = new WP_Query($args);

if ($query->have_posts()) : while($query->have_posts()) : $query->the_post();

?>

    but it doesn’t work, I can’t see only posts with a specific label, I see all posts.

    I hope someone can help me.

    Thank you

    The tag accepts the tag slug, not the tag name. So if for example the tag name is “some tag” the slug would be “some-tag”.

    $args = array(
    'post_type' => 'post',
    'tag' => 'some-tag'
);
