Bug: Tags and Categories field names cannot be renamed

[estruyf]

I am trying to have a tags field called tag rather than tags

Despite creating new default content type, the Markdown file always ends up writing a field called 'tags'

  "frontMatter.taxonomy.contentTypes": [
    {
      "name": "default",
      "previewPath": null,
      "pageBundle": false,
      "fields": [

[[SNIP]]

        {
          "title": "My Tags",
          "name": "tag",
          "type": "tags"
        },

Should it be possible to use an alternate field name? Or have more than on tags type field?

@jmatthewpryor a fix to support this is added to the latest beta. Feel free to give it a try.

thanks @estruyf - apologies for the naive question but how do I test the beta?

[estruyf]

Beta can be installed by installing this version: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=eliostruyf.vscode-front-matter-beta

Be sure to uninstall the main version. Nothing is lost during this process, but two extensions with the same ID cannot run at the same time.

thanks - that seems to have fixed it

Thanks for verifying!
