tag renaming not working in own library

For the last couple of weeks (didn't report immediately since I wasn't sure it was a bug or just a short-term snafu), when I've tried to rename a tag, it's accepted the edit, and then returned me to the main "my books" overview page without actually making the edit.

This is happening when I view my catalog under the "My books" link, click tags to view the counts for each tag, click "edit", change what's written, or try to add an extra tag with a comma and another tag, and then click "save tag". It happens with tags with and without special characters, and it happens when I either try to make the tags shorter OR longer.

I've successfully changed a couple tags by filtering for them, and forcing a batch edit to add a new tag and then remove the old one, but that's a different process and messes up the display order of my tags on individual books (since the added tag is the newest, it appears at the end of a list of tags rather than where it would otherwise appear thematically).

I'm also having a couple batch edit issues (for large numbers of works selected, the batch edit isn't processing), but I think they're unrelated issues, so I'll report that as a separate bug if it isn't already reported elsewhere.

>1 parlerodermime: Unable to reproduce following the steps you list. Both renaming and adding a new tag work as expected.

Please provide client tech specs (device, browser) and whether you've tried from other browsers/devices and got the same result. Steps for debugging are: clearing your LT cookies/cache and disabling any browser extensions (safe mode) to isolate what might be causing the unexpected behavior.
