Tags allow students and teachers to connect different types of content on the site.

The following areas may be tagged:

Courses
Activities and resources (new in 3.1)
Quiz questions
Wiki pages
Blog posts (including external blog posts)
User interests (displayed on your full profile page)

(Note that the list of possible tag areas is configurable by a site administrator - see Managing tags.)

Tag collections may be set up by a site administrator, such as a collection of standard tags for tagging courses. When a user clicks on a tag, the tag page displays only items with that tag in the same collection.

Tags may be browsed or searched via the Tags site page or browsed via the Tags block or Blog tags block.

Tagging courses

Users who can access the course and have the course capability moodle/course:tag are able to tag courses.

-Tags allow students and teachers to map different types of content on the site. Moodle uses tags for user interests, blog posts, wiki pages and course. Other plugins may use tagging functionality to tag more content types. Clicking on a tag name will display other users, courses or blog posts that were tagged with this word. It is also possible to [[Using_tags#Search_tags|search for tags]] or access them through a [[Tags block]] or [[Blog tags block]]. Tags are created automatically when something was tagged with this word for the first time. Users with appropriate privileges can mark some tags as "official" and they will be suggested when tagging content. It is also possible to add [[Flickr block|Flickr]] or [[Youtube_block|YouTube]] blocks on the individual tags pages to display related images or video from the Internet.
