Hi Bootstrap Studio team, I am experiencing a problem with the Blog Tags selector in Blog Options. When I select only a few tags for a blog post, many other tags automatically turn on. When I turn the unwanted tags off, they sometimes turn on again or the selection changes unexpectedly. After saving, the tags generated in the Blog Loop do not match the tags I selected. Some posts display missing tags, while others display incorrect tags. This issue appears when the project contains a long list of blog tags. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a large number of tags in Settings → Blog → Tags. 2. Open a blog post and go to Blog Options. 3. Open the Tags selector. 4. Select or deselect several tags. 5. Scroll through the tag list. 6. Some tags automatically turn on again or the selection changes. 7. Save the post and check the tags displayed in the Blog Loop. Expected behavior: Only the tags I manually enable should be saved and displayed. Actual behavior: Some tags turn on automatically, and the saved tags do not match my selection. Screen recording showing the issue: I am using Bootstrap Studio on macOS. Could this be a bug related to a long or virtualized tag list?

Thank you for providing a video! The Blog Options functionality will be improved substantially in our next update and will become the new [Bootstrap Studio CMS](https://forum.bootstrapstudio.io/t/sneak-peek-bootstrap-studio-cms/12793). This will fix the problem but is a few weeks away. To not make you wait until then, you can send the bsdesign to [hi@bootstrapstudio.io](mailto:hi@bootstrapstudio.io) and our team will send you back a fixed design. ---

Thank you, Martin. I have sent my `.bsdesign` file to `hi@bootstrapstudio.io` and included a link to this forum topic in the email. I appreciate your help! ---

Thank you very much for identifying the cause and fixing my design. I will use the Add Tag button instead of duplicating tags until the new CMS release. I really appreciate your support!
