How to create separate tag pages?

[jlconlin]

I would like to have a separate page generated for every tag in my blog. I'm sure this is easy to do, but I can't figure out the magic incantation.

I have the following in my _config.yml

theme: minimal-mistakes-jekyll

tag_archive:
  type: jekyll-archives
  path: /tags/
category_archive:
  type: jekyll-archives
  path: /categories/

jekyll-archives:
  enabled: []
  layouts:
    category: archive-taxonomy
    tag: archive-taxonomy
  permalinks:
    category: /categories/:name/
    tag: /tags/:name/

In _pages/tags.md I have:

---
title: "Tags"
permalink: /tags/
layout: tags
regenerate: false
author_profile: true
---

Instead of getting different pages, I have just one very long page with links to different sections in the page. While this is nice, I would prefer to have different pages. Please advise.

You need to configure the jekyll-archives plugin which does the heavy lifting and will create a page for each taxonomy item. The .md file you referenced above is for the Liquid (no plugin) archive type.

Check the theme’s docs for exact config settings and how to install the plugin.

Thank you @mmistakes. I thought I had followed those instructions, but missed something. What I had missed was this line:

jekyll-archives:
  enabled: all
