Anyone can create tags and then tag content with them. You can tag:
- Files and folders
- Wiki pages
- Blog posts
- Discussion topics
- Calendar events
- Site links
Tagging can be done when you create content, or you can edit existing content to add or remove tags. You can create your own tags or select from a list of tags already used in the current site.
In the Document Library you can manage tags in the item list or by editing the content properties. In all the other site features such as wiki pages and blogs you manage tags in the Tags section when creating or editing content, as follows:
- Add a new tag: Type a tag in the field provided and then click Add. To create several tags at once, separate each tag with a space. To add a multi-word tag, place it in quotation marks (for example, “draft material”).
- Add an existing tag: Click Choose from popular tags in this site to display the tags already used in the current site, then click the tag you want to use.
-
Remove a tag: In the list of associated tags, click
to remove an existing tag.
Note: Data lists don’t support tagging.
You can also search for content using tags as the search term.
