00:00 Introduction
In this tutorial, we'll explore how to use tags with Newsroom modules and article pages.
00:12 1. Using Tags in the Newsroom Modules: Include and Exclude Tag Fields, Add New Tags
Newsroom modules can be added to the Newsroom homepage, article pages, or custom pages. Some modules that support tag filtering are the:
- News Carousel
- Featured Article
- Search
- Tag Cloud
- Headlines
Here's how tag filtering works in these modules:
There are two types of tag fields:
- Include tags: Modules like News Carousel and Headlines allow you to filter articles based on selected tags. Only articles with the specified tags will appear in the module.
- Exclude tags: All modules support excluding tags. When you use this option, the module will display all articles except those with the selected tags.
To add tags to a Newsroom module:
- Open the page layout or use the left-hand menu to access the module settings.
- In the Tags field, select the tags you want to filter by using the drop-down menu.
- If you want to exclude tags, look for the Exclude tags option under the "Additional" section and select the tags you wish to exclude.
If you are an Administrator or Manager user in the platform, you can also add new tags directly via the tag fields.
02:02 2. Adding Tags to Article Pages
Tags can also be added directly to articles to help organize your content within the newsroom. Articles with assigned tags will automatically be included or excluded from pages and modules according to their tag settings.
To add tags to an article:
- Scroll to the Page Details section at the bottom of the article editing screen.
- Use the drop-down menu in the tag field to select and add tags.
- If you are an Administrator or Manager user, you can also create new tags directly through the tag field.
