 * After upgrade from 2.03 to 2.04 it would seem some useful functionality was lost.
   Prior I could type ?tag=Christine+Davis and get all posts that referred to Christine
   AND to Davis. Now the same search results only in posts that refer to Christine
   Davis.
 * I constantly was using a multiple tag search a la del.icio.us and found it quite
   useful. I miss it sorely. {sob}

 * Hmm…

 * works on my blog. I appear to be a few versions of UTW behind though… I’m at 
   3.0.1 and running WP 2.0.4.
 * Just for grins, I’ll upgrade to the newest soon and see what happens.

 * Very interesting… I may not have gone back far enough into UTW of days gone by.

 * Well, I upgraded to latest/greatest. Still works…
 * So. Hmm. Now we wonder about your configuration.

 * Hmm, meanwhile I will try reverting to see if that works

 * Reversion to no avail. So it is my “configuration”. Should I suspect K2 or look
   somewhere else?

 * That’s a really good question. I’ve not played much with K2 — are you current
   with it?
 * Hopefully someone else will have some ideas, I’m not really sure where to look
   from here.

 * Ah, maybe this is the problem.
 * It is not searching for UTW Tags. I tried [http://jcwinnie.biz/wordpress/index.php?tag=alcohol+waste](http://jcwinnie.biz/wordpress/index.php?tag=alcohol+waste)
 * and got the same result as with
    [http://jcwinnie.biz/wordpress/?tag=alcohol+waste](http://jcwinnie.biz/wordpress/?tag=alcohol+waste)
 * and I know that I have a whole bunch of posts about cellulosic ethanol tagged
   with alcohol and waste

 * But your search gave results for category equal to advocacy or category equal
   to environment.
 * Believe me, there are many, many posts with the tag advocacy AND the tag environment,
   maybe 14 pages worth rather than two posts

 * Hm, I show 42 pages with tag=environment and 15 pages with tag=advocacy. Since
   most of AG advocacy is environmental, 14 pages was a good guess. Your search 
   probably should have resulted in 15 pages of results.

 * Yes, am running the current version of k2. I also switched to another theme, 
   Almost Spring, to ascertain that the problem persisted.

 * Ok, now the pain in the rear suggestion…
 * Disable other plugins. See if one of them is conflicting with your UTW.

 * Disabled all plug-ins used, except for UTW, without regaining previous multi-
   tag functionality.
 * I suspect it has something to do with the stripping of chararcters in functions.
   php, but disabling the one suspect statement failed to make a difference.
 * Are you running WP 2.04?
