Category Blog Show Tags does not show show tags

[idleog]

Hi all

If I want to show tags of each article in category blog and set in the option panel of the menu item 'show tags' to 'show' it does not show the tags. If I also set 'show author' or 'show creation date', the tags are shown.
This happens when in global settings show tags is set to 'hide'.

Joomla 3.7.4

Cheers

which is because:
in components/com_content/views/category/tmpl/blog_item.php:

Code: Select all

<?php // Todo Not that elegant would be nice to group the params ?>
<?php $useDefList = ($params->get('show_modify_date') || $params->get('show_publish_date') || $params->get('show_create_date')
	|| $params->get('show_hits') || $params->get('show_category') || $params->get('show_parent_category') || $params->get('show_author') || $assocParam); ?>

<?php if ($useDefList && ($info == 0 || $info == 2)) : ?>
  <?php // Todo: for Joomla4 joomla.content.info_block.block can be changed to joomla.content.info_block ?>
	<?php echo JLayoutHelper::render('joomla.content.info_block.block', array('item' => $this->item, 'params' => $params, 'position' => 'above')); ?>
	<?php if ($info == 0 && $params->get('show_tags', 1) && !empty($this->item->tags->itemTags)) : ?>
		<?php echo JLayoutHelper::render('joomla.content.tags', $this->item->tags->itemTags); ?>
	<?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

if $useDefList is not true tags are never shown even if show_tags-param is set to '1'.
