            Bug ID: 375770
           Summary: Creating tag from left panel causes error
           Product: digikam
           Version: 5.4.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Tags
          Assignee: digikam-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: forgivenbyjc at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

When using the left panel 'Enter tag here.' field to create a non-existing tag
on multiple selected images, the following error dialog box happens:

|Tag creation Error
|An error occurred during tag creation:
|Tag Path               Error
|Earth2                 Tag name already exists

And then the following apply dialog box:

|Apply changes?
|You have edited the metadata of XX images:
|-caption
|-tags
|Do you want to apply your changes?
|Always apply changes without confirmation

The second error (Apply changes) happens when one or more images are selected. 
The first (Tag creation Error) and second (Apply changes) errors both happen
when more than one image is selected.

It seems when multiple images are selected during tag creation, the tag is
trying to be created for each individual file instead of created for the first
and selected for the rest.

It seems there may be two separate issues here, the 'Tag creation Error' issue
and the 'Apply changes' issue.  If selecting a pre-existing tag does not cause
the apply changes dialog box, then creating a new tag should not cause the
apply changes dialog box either.
