This is impossible at the moment, but a basic effect might be achieved with adding the given tag to the "search state" behind the scenes in the view askbot.views.readers.questions
.
I think as always - to really finish that feature, quite a bit more work will be needed:
- automatically apply tag to new questions
- make it more difficult to remove that tag - so that questions could not too easily "jump" from site to site.
- filter users by tags
- restrict "site-level tags" to just a few - because sites tend to accumulate lots of tags
Regarding categories - those are going to be based on tags - but organized into a tree. Only a few tags will ever be "category level" tags, because you don't want to have too many anyway.
Not actually tag only. I also want categories. So that some post with different tag can be classified in to several categories.
Askbot doesn't currently have categories, but there is already a feature request for that. See http://askbot.org/en/question/6529/is-it-possible-to-add-categories-in-addition-to/
