Can't make a second column for tags on dataview

Help
1

I’ve created a table in Dataview and want a second column where all the tags for a note go. I’ve managed to create a second column with this code:

table tags
from "place"
sort file.name asc

However, in all columns there’s just: “-”. I understand that frontmatter can be used with Dataview but I already have a lot of notes with tags in them that aren’t in frontmatter which I want to be shown.

Hi,
If you Are using tag: (not tags:) in frontmatter, you can try this query

table without id
file.link as "LINK",
tag as "TAGS"
from "PLACE"
sort file.name asc

Otherwise change tag as “TAGS” to tags as “TAGS”

Hi thanks for the response! Is there a way to make a query for tags that aren’t in the frontmatter? So say I have multiple tags in different parts of one note is there a Dataview query that can show all these tags?

Sure,
you have modify query like that (for example looking for #tag1, #tag2 and #tag3)

table without id
file.link as "LINK",
tag as "TAGS"
from #tag1 or #tag2 or #tag3 
sort file.name asc
