Tags

Tags are keywords you can use to link content in addition to categories. They enable thematic cross-linking in Joomla.

  • Function and Purpose

    With tags you assign articles, contacts, or other content across the category structure. Visitors can click a tag to view all content with that keyword.

    Management

    • Component: Manage your tags via Components → Tags.
    • Hierarchy: Tags can, but don’t have to, be organized hierarchically.
    • Assignment: When editing an article you select existing tags or create new ones.

    Important Notes

    • Alternative Navigation: Tags give visitors another way to filter content.
    • SEO Potential: Well-chosen tags can improve rankings, but avoid tag spam.
    • Multilingualism: Tags can be language-specific.
