Aurora: Add tags to a community post

Authors and members with elevated permissions (Admins and Moderators) can add tags while creating a post or after the posts have been published. Tagging content helps organize content and make it easier to find in the community. Based on the tag options configured at the board level, you can add preset tags, freeform tags, or both to posts. To learn more about tag options, see Enable tags and set tag options.

Authors can add preset tags or define their own tags (freeform) while creating a new post or editing an existing post across various boards.

Note: Members must have the permission to add tags to their posts.

Let’s look at an example where you want to add tags while creating a new discussion in a forum.

To add tags:

  1. Go to a forum board and click Start a Discussion.
    The Start a Discussion page is displayed.
  2. Enter a Title and add your content in the editor.
  3. In the Tags section, select one of more preset tags from the list.
  4. To create your own tag, click + Tag under Add new tags. In Search tags, you can search and add the existing tags added in the community or enter a new tag.


    Note: The list of preset tags and Add new tags options are available based on the tags options configured at the respective board level.
  5. Click Publish.
    The tags you have added are displayed in the published version of the post.

    The authors who started the post and members with Manage tags permissions can add new tags (preset and freeform) or remove the existing tags from the published version of the post. To add a new tag to the published version of the post, click + Tag next to the existing tags and add the tag.
