Introducing Tags

You may have noticed that some of your posts have been updated or moved around on the homepage—don’t worry. No content as been edited.

I’ve added tags to Product Dork today in an effort to keep the site organized as it grows. You can click a tag to see all topics related to that tag. Tags will also appear when searching.

Here are the three types of tags we’ll be using:

There’s also one additional tag for the Deals category, expired. Deals now are wikis and when someone discovers a deal is no longer available, they can be tagged as expired.

Admins and moderators will be the only ones able to create new tags; however, anyone can add them to a topic (and I’d encourage you too!). Currently, there are a maximum of 5 tags per topic. We’ll see if that needs to be expanded, but ideally topics are focused around a few products, companies or brands.

Open to ideas and feedback as we continue to experiment!
