Custom logs are not burning into charcoal using blocks tag

I'm trying to use minecraft:logs_that_burn tag to get my custom logs burning into the charcoal in the furnace, like in vanilla. I looked inside vanilla data, it uses this tag for smelting all logs. But for some reason that doesn't work at all, my logs don't burn. I tried creating a smelting recipe and using a tag inside, but that doesn't work either, both for minecraft:logs_that_burn tag and my custom tags. I really don't want to add tons of logs to recipes manually, without using tags, that's a shame :-D

You need to use item tags for crafting/smelting recipes. I think that the block tags for logs are based on the leaf decay mechanic, while the item tags are for crafting.

Oh. I see, that works! There are both minecraft/blocks/logs_that_burn and items/logs_that_burn, and items are for the smelting process. Thank you!
