5.12. Tags¶
Tags are keywords that you can give to artefacts, pages and collections in your portfolio to find them more easily later on.
Note
A site administrator must have the tag cloud enabled for you to use this feature.
5.12.1. Add a tag¶
You can select tags easily from a drop-down menu.
Add tags¶
If you already added tags, you see them in the search box. You can remove them by clicking the little x to the left of the tag or by deleting it with the keyboard’s Delete key.
Start typing a word and…
… a drop-down menu becomes visible in which all the tags are shown that have this letter or letter combination.
Select the tag that you wish to add to your list of tags.
Tags that you already selected are highlighted.
The number after the tag indicates how many times you have used this tag already.
Save the page for your tags to be added.
If you do not already have a tag in your list, you can type your tag and hit the Enter key to transform it into a tag. It will be added to your list of tags once the page is saved.
Note
If you use the tag “profile”, the tagged artefact or page is added to your profile sideblock as a shortcut.
5.12.2. Tag cloud¶
You can see your tag cloud in the sidebar when you are in the Content and Portfolio areas. Configure how many different tags you wish to display in your tag cloud in your account settings.
Tag cloud¶
Click on the Tags heading to be taken to all your tags.
Click on any tag to see all artefacts and pages from your portfolio area that have this tag associated.
Note
The more you use a tag for your files, journal entries and pages, the bigger its font size gets in the tag cloud.
