Setting to auto-delete empty tags

thejaswi says:
It would great if there was an option in the Settings to auto-delete a tag when it is empty. If a user's tags have a short lifespan, then it is a chore to go and constantly cleanup tags which will not be used again for long. Leaving them around just crowds the filter/box on the left containing all tags.

Not all users may like it all the time, so it can be an option that users have to deliberately turn on if they want it.

even a multi-select/edit would be great. I use the gmail feature and end up with bogus tags that come through because of the email subject and I have to manually delete each one.

Hi thejaswi,

Thanks for the suggestion! It's worth noting that you can hide empty tags in the sidebar. To do so:

1. Hover over the 'Tags' header in the left sidebar.
2. Click on the dropdown arrow to the right of the header name to display settings.
3. Click 'Show with incomplete'.

Hope that helps!
