yeh, i did it!
so, the multi's are all by themselves? can they be added to a post somehow?
interesting that i cut and pasted my own name from the file, but it was changed to conform to the database name. and it connected each tag to the appropriate database record automatically - neat!
but, one of my plants was not in the database - the main biggest one! so i had to go and submit a proposal. i prolly will have to delete the tag and recreate it once the new entry is processed?
i'm getting there..slow like a snail, but it's pretty easy actually.
