Re: Have all the tags of a heading, with a tag hierarchy

[Cletip Cletip]

Thank you for your answer!

I may not have been specific enough:
I want the tags also inherited with this "method" https://orgmode.org/manual/Tag-Hierarchy.html.


So imagine this in your configuration file

(setq org-tag-alist '((:startgrouptag)
                      ("GTD")
                      (:grouptags)
                      ("Control")
                      (:Persp)
                      (:endgrouptag)
                      (:startgrouptag)
                      ( Control)
                      (:grouptags)
                      ("Context")
                      (:Task")
                      (:endgrouptag))


So, if I put the "Control" tag, I am also supposed to have the "GTD" tag, because "Control" is a child of "GTD".

But, with the "org-get-tags" function, I don't have this famous "GTD" tag

In my case, I do manage to get the iherited tags. Do you have
`org-use-tag-inheritance' set to non-nil?

According to the `org-get-tags' docstring:
