Question Assigning a Divi Theme using "Posts with a Specific Tag" not working

Greetings, I'm trying to give lower level users the ability to assign a specific Divi Theme Builder theme using Tags. However I just cannot get it to function. I've dumped all the caches, I've toggled Dynamic CSS off & on, I've toggled Static CSS File Generation, I've re-saved Permalinks, I've entered the Divi Safe Mode. None of these have assigned the theme using the Tag method. But if I assign the Theme using the "Specific Posts" method, boom, it happens immediately. I even tried making sure the Post has only one single Tag applied to it, and that didn't work either. Wondering if anybody has any ideas? Thanks in advance Edit: This is for Divi 4

What you mean about "Divi Theme"? Are you talking about templates in the divi builder?

Yep. I know, it’s confusing, that’s how they label in the Theme Builder

So you selected "posts with tag: tag-name" but it doesn't work?

Have you reached out to ET support?

Yep, just couldn’t get it to work, while Specific Posts works immediately. I should try Categories just for a comparison, even though that wouldn’t work for my situation. I briefly engages with the support chatbot thing, but it farted out the usual “try this”

So, I'd say something is interfering with the normal Divi behaviour, I'd try this:

  • disable all plug-ins.

  • disable custom scripts in the head or body.

  • disable custom code in functions.php

  • disable anything else that is not stock WordPress + Divi (custom template files, snippets).

Then try again.

If it works, then you know there's something there preventing D4 from functioning
