Silverstripe Blog Tags add class for current tag filter

Question

Sorry I'm kinda new to Silverstripe.

Is there a way to add a active/current class to the BlogTagsWidget.ss list items?

Cheers

Assuming that the BlogController is the current controller when BlogTagsWidget.ss is rendered, you may be able to use this method directly to check it in the template, e.g.

<% loop $Tags %>
    <% if $CurrentTag && $CurrentTag.ID == $ID %>
        Current
    <% else %>
        Not current
    <% end_if %>
<% end_loop %>

If it's not available then you may need to add some extra code to provide the current tag boolean in BlogTagsWidget::getTags().
