Environment

  • Python version: 3.8.2

  • NetBox version: 2.9.3

    We have upgraded our netbox from version 2.8.3 to 2.9.3 after following the steps
    https://netbox.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation/upgrading/
    we found a problem with the tags section. Organization -> Tags
    in the previous version 2.8.3 every Tag name shown on the list is a clickable element when you click this element it shows every tagged element using this tag, sites, devices, ipaddresses, interfaces, etc.
    In version 2.9.3 every element on the tags section Organization -> Tags is not a clickable element is just a string.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Upgrade the system with system from version 2.8.3 to 2.9.3
  2. Also happens if you upgrade from version 2.8.3 to 2.9.2
  3. Same if you make a fresh install.

Expected Behavior

Every element on section tags should be a clickable element.

Observed Behavior

Every element on tags sections is a string is not clickable.

So if i want to search all the elements tagged with one tag i have to search in every section and filtering with the tag?
one search in regions, one search in interfaces, one search in devices, one search in ip addresses?
This is really inconvenient, i think this is a bug not intended behavior, because in all the previous versions every tag was a clickable element, this is not a feature request is something previously worked.
Also with this upgrade all my previously created tags cannot be asigned to the devices, and if i go to devices section when i try to filter with one tags, none is shown in the drop down list.
