Unfortunately, when I added a settings link for Tag Search, I introduced a bug whereby every plugin had a settings link. Therefore, I have removed it until I find the cause and a fix. Apologies for any confusion and problems that this caused. Any problems with the update, just leave a comment here or a support request on WordPress.org.
I have recently taken on the website and plugins. Unfortunately, they had previously been neglected to the point some are very old or have some bugs, so I am currently going through and updating the plugins one-by-one.
Currently, I have updated Tag Search and Custom Single Post Templates Manager. Bot had sitewide links removed (bad for SEO) and the latter had bug fixes (including not working with child themes.
If you do have any problems with any plugins, please leave a post at the plugin’s WordPress page or a comment on the relevant post in the blog. Try to leave as much details as possible (rather than “it doesn’t work”), such as version of WordPress, what does/doesn’t happen, any error messages, at what point the error occurs, etc. I will respond as soon as possible.
Version 1.3 of Custom Single Post Templates Manager has been released. The fixes include compatibility with child themes and removal of the site wide links.
The plugin looks for the templates in the parent theme’s folder and then the child theme one. Unfortunately, the way the child theme check was done didn’t work properly, but this has now been fixed.
If you are using a child theme, make sure to be consistent with where you having a subfolder for the templates in order to avoid any problems with the wrong file being loaded. (On this site, I use a child theme and stick with placing templates in a subfolder of it.)
The plugin can be downloaded from WordPress.org.
If you’re experiencing problems, then leave a comment here or request support at the plugin’s WordPress.org support page.
Tag Search was recently updated to version 1.7. The changes were minimal, the main one being removal of the sitewide link. As we all know, outbound links sitewide are a red flag for SEO. I want to ensure each and every plugin does not have these, for everyone’s benefit.
Other minor changes were removal of some redundant code and changing the settings location.
You can download the plugin from Tag Search page at WordPress.org.
