3. Choose a tag group using the Page tag group drop-down list. If you check the Inherit check-box, tag group will be inherited from the document's parent.

 

 

 

Please note

 

There needs to be at least one tag group defined for you to be able to tag a document. If there are no tag groups created, you will not be able to tag a document as each tag needs to belong to some tag group. You can learn about creating tag groups in the next chapter.

 

It is also recommended to select a tag group for the root of the content tree so that it could be inherited by the pages located under it.

 

4. Enter the tags into the Page tags field. Tags can be entered either manually or can be selected using the Select button. This button displays a list of all tags in the selected tag group. Check the appropriate tags' check-boxes and click OK.

Tag formats

 

When entering more than one tag into the Page tags field, the tags should be separated with a comma or a blank space. A combination of both in a single entry is also valid. The following examples are all valid entries for adding three tags - tag1, tag2 and tag3:

 

tag1, tag2, tag3

tag1 tag2 tag3

tag1, tag2 tag3

 

In case that you are entering a tag consisting of more than one word, you should enclose it within quotation marks. Multiple long tags can also be entered and can be also divided by both blank spaces and commas:

 

"long tag1", tag, "long tag2"

"long tag1" tag "long tag2"

 

Quotation marks can also be used for tags containing special characters that couldn't be used otherwise:

 

"tag@1", "tag#2", "long, strange: tag@#$"

 

The page tags field has also an insinuation function implemented. This functions offers you tags from the selected tag group while you are writing:
