Hey Dhiraj

 

You might want to consider using either custom tags or labels instead for what you're after.  Tags are really designed to be added by anybody, if they have the permission to do so.  The list that you're seeing is probably comprised of tags that other contributors have added to posts themselves rather than by an administrator.  Custom tags and labels both give administrators a lot more control over which words/terms are used and labels can also be made mandatory and be predefined at the board level.

 

Take a look at our TKB articles and if you have any further questions please get back to me.

    Hi Noaman,

    Thanks for quick response. In this community we have done migration of posts. So i think while migrating the posts previous developer has migrated tags as well. All those tags are appearing in the list which is shown in Admin. I just wanted to confirm that is there any way we can set a tag list in Lithium back-end.

    Thanks,
    Dhiraj

      You can either delete or rename existing tags but I believe new tags are only added as and when messages are tagged by users.

       

      As I mentioned, custom tags and labels can be predefined.

       

      Hope that helps.
