Adding Tags to WordPress

Neato : Ultimate Tag Warrior 3

Ultimate Tag Warrior is a multi-headed hydra of a plugin. It allows you to add tags either through the Write Post page in wordpress in a tag box, on posts using an AJAXy box, and in posts using special syntax from external editors (or internally, if you’d like). From the write post page, you can also get suggestions for tags

I added tags to my site using this wordpress plugin. I like it alot although I haven’t figured out a few things. It is fine for now I think. The plugin comes with a normal plugin that you upload to your plugins folder but also some pages to searching.

After uploading everything and activating the plugin, here are some tips to getting it working on your site. In wp-admin goto Manage > Tags. I have URL setting unchecked because I couldn’t get it working. Meta keywords and embedded tags are turned on to help the search engines and for advertising. Primary Content tags I have set to “After Content” as you can see. I have tagsetsimplelist and prefix is a simple P tag with class “headertext”.  This css class is something that is specific to my wordpress theme.

This plugin adds two tables to the database to keep track of different tags. I think it also adds a field to the content table that is associated with tag ids in the tag table. I like having tags on my wordpress posts much better than categories. Now I just have to figure out a way to make it so I can add tags to my posts via performancing.
