Can a forum module define template tags?

Thanks for the answer. Can you provide a little more detail? Where does that import statement belong? Importing registry from, say, forum.templatetags.question_list_tags sounds easy enough, but it doesn’t seem like it achieves anything unless that import statement is executed by the template parser.

Yes, just like you described. The trick here, and I forgot to mention it, sorry, is that you need to run that file before the template parser kicks in for the first time. So lets say in your module you create a file named module_tags.py or something like that, then you need to import that file from the module startup.py file, which is guaranteed to run before any template parsing. Or you can even define the tags inside the startup.py file.

Worked beautifully, thankyou!

@Kevin Yank. Since you seem to have gotten this to work I was wondering if you could clarify your setup. I did this: http://meta.osqa.net/questions/5683/custom-template-filtertags, based on the discussion here, but can't get this to work.
