Hi guys,

saw a question today about tags so thought I would create a quick guide, tags are used for quick searches in the forum and also help with search engine optimisation, which means it enables google,bing,etc... to find your posts if your tags match their search words.

You can only use tags on posts you have created, you can create the tags when you create the topic or you can edit it afterwards, the tags are listed at the bottom of your thread and if you are the topic creator you will see (Edit Tags), click on it to enter/remove keywords.

You can see here a good example from Georges thread:

When you Edit tags you will see it like this:

Use commas to separate words or phrases, do not comma every single word in a phrase as we don't want words like "and","or","for","in", etc... to be tagged, use words that relate to your topic only.

Here is a good example from killi69:

Enjoy and use appropriately. Thanks
