I'm still waiting for an answer.

I created a new vocabulary for my countries and used "convert_to_tags", 
"convert_from_tags" but because the data in the form is coma separated 
the "convert_to_tags" returns "is not JSON serializable".

Again how should I convert the coma separated string so it is stored 
properly in tags?

Thanks,
Carlos.

Hi,

I would like to store "Regions" in the same way Tags are stored so I can 
use it in IFacets. Currently I am storing it as a value separated by 
coma using:

def _add_custom_metadata_to_schema(self, schema):
   schema.update({'ILRI_actyregions': 
[toolkit.get_validator('ignore_missing'),toolkit.get_converter('convert_to_extras')]})

But if I use it like that (coma separated) IFacets show for example 
"Kenya,Tanzania" and not Kenya and Tanzania separated.

So I guess I need to store Regions in the same way Tags are stored. How 
can I do this?

Thanks,
Carlos
