Tagify sounds like a great choice! we are maintaining the Autocomplete Deluxe module, but we're leaning towards switching from Autocomplete Deluxe to Tagify.

Proposed resolution

  • Add drupal/tagify ~1 to the composer.json file.
  • Enable Tagify by default, and set Tagify as the default widget for all entity reference field types.
  • See also 📌 Switch Tags field widget from Autocomplete Deluxe to Tagify for the Blog post content type Active
  • Do not enable the Autocomplete Deluxe module for new installations
  • Remove Autocomplete Deluxe from Varbase 11, but retain it in Varbase 10.1.x for compatibility and smoother upgrade paths
