How to use tags in your newsroom

Implement a tagging structure to group releases together

If you have releases about multiple subjects that you want to group together, you can add tags to your press release. For example, for car brands it would make sense to give articles about a specific car type a tag of the name of that car type. You can add tags by scrolling all the way down in the release editor, next to the featured image field. 

You can add as many tags as you want. Tags can contain spaces, so you can use a tag consisting of multiple words. Please be advised that tags are case sensitive.

Let's say you have a headlines module with the tag 'example' configured. The headlines module will then only show articles with the 'example' tag. If an article doesn't have that tag it will not show up. The following modules support the use of tags:

• News Carousel Module
• Headlines Module
• Search Module
• Featured Release
• Tagcloud Module

You can also configure one or more exclude tags. Articles with these tags will not be included in the modules mentioned. For example, if you add an exclude tag 'example' to the search module, articles with that tag will not be included in the results of the Search Module.

It's also possible to create links to archive pages with specific tags, which is explained in a separate article.

Similarly, you can also tag images and videos which doesn't only help with finding them if you have a lot of multimedia assets, you can also organize your Media Library with it using categories and subcategories. See the linked article for an in-depth explanation.
