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


==Enabling tag functionality==
The following areas may be tagged:


To enable site-wide tag functionality, check the "Enable tags functionality" box in ''Administration > Security > [[Site policies]]''.
* Courses
* Activities and resources
*Forum posts
* Database entries
*Glossary entries
*Books (teachers only)
* Quiz questions
* Wiki pages
* Blog posts (including external blog posts)
* User interests (displayed on your full profile page)


==Describing your interests==
See [[Using tags]] for more details.


Tags allows you to describe your interests in a way that is easy for people with similar interests to find you. To tell everyone what your interests are, go to your profile editing page and enter your interests/tags separated by commas. If a tag you entered already exists, you get associated to that tag. If it does not, a new tag will be created (if you have the capability to [[Capabilities/moodle/tag:create|create new tags]]).
Note that the list of possible tag areas is configurable by a site administrator - see [[Managing tags]]. The site administrator can also create sets of tags, 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.


==Tag pages==
Tags may be browsed or searched via the Tags site page or browsed via the [[Tags block]] or [[Blog tags block]].


Each tag in moodle has a page associated with it. The tag page brings together users, information and resources related to that tag. A tag has a description, links to related tags, a list of users associated with that tag and moodle blocks with resources related to it.
==Tagging courses ==
Users who can access the course and have the course capability [[Capabilities/moodle/course:tag|moodle/course:tag]] are able to tag courses.  


==Tagging activities ==

* If the user has the capability to [[Capabilities/moodle/tag:edit|edit tags]], a link "Edit this tag" will appear in the tag page. By clicking on it, you will get redirect to the [[Tag_editing | tag editing page]].
 
* If the tag name or its content is inappropriate, a user may click on the "Flag as inappropriate" link to report that. This will allow those responsible for maintaining the good use of the tags functionality to take appropriate action, such as deleting the tag. See [[Manage_tags|Managing tags]].
