After adding a new tag in release page, I can't find it in tag list.

Description

A user reported creating a new tag on the release page but couldn't find it listed in the tags section.

I tried pulling the tag locally from the remote repository and succeeded. I could also see the new tag appearing in the timeline feed and on the commit page.

I then deleted the tag remotely, recreated it, and pushed again. The CI ran successfully, confirming it had created a new release. However, the release itself wasn't visible anywhere.

After deleting the tag again, I noticed it still appeared on the commit page! Clicking it just returned a 404 error.

Eventually, I found the tag buried on the last page of the tag list – even though it was newly created and should have been on the first page.

The fix: After upgrading Gitea from 1.23.7 to 1.24.2, I deleted the tag on tag list page, then recreated it. This time everything worked correctly – the release appeared as expected.

1.23 is an old and outdated release , 1.24 is the stable and maintained one.

So if 1.24 doesn't have the bug, then it should be fine.

1.23 is an old and outdated release , 1.24 is the stable and maintained one.

So if 1.24 doesn't have the bug, then it should be fine.

Today, even after I'd upgraded Gitea, he created a new tag on the release page and the bug resurfaced.

We've found that creating a new tag locally and pushing it to the remote works correctly; however, creating the tag directly on the release page causes the issue.

Are you sure you created a "release" but not a "draft"? Please provide the detailed reproducible steps if there is any problem.

First open the repo page, then click releases, new release, input tag name, and then press create tag only.

I then deleted the tag remotely, recreated it, and pushed again. The CI ran successfully, confirming it had created a new release. However, the release itself wasn't visible anywhere.

So I just create a new tag without release. It's not a release, and not a draft either. If it works correctly, a new release will be created by CI, which contains a step to create release by gitea API.
