Tags can be used on your media hub content to organise and group together content by a common theme or subject. In comparison to categories, you can have multiple tags per item, which can be more granular than the broader categories used.
The tags appear on the media post at the top below the title, allowing the user to click on each of these and view all other posts that include that tag. The tags also dictate which media items are shown in the related posts section on the right-hand side.
How to Add a New Tag
Within the Tags Section
Tags are managed within the Vennture Media Hub by clicking Tags in the left-hand menu. To add a new tag, click the Add button in the top right of your screen; then, you'll need to fill in two fields:
- Title: This would be the name of your tag as you expect it to appear on your website.
- Slug: This is a unique identifier for each tag and should be in all lowercase with no spaces.
Within a Media Item
If you are already editing a media item in the Media Hub, you are also able to create a new tag within the media post you are currently working on by clicking on the red + icon next to the tags field, and this will open an 'Add' page for the new tag. Fill in the fields in this window, then click Save.
Your new tag will appear at the bottom of the drop-down list and be ready for you to use. You can do this to add multiple new tags through this window should you need to.
Translating Tags
If you have a country folder on your website, then you are able to translate your media hub items to the localised language and also able to translate tags used for these items. To translate a tag, navigate to the tags section within the media hub and against the tag you want to translate, select the corresponding country folder in the translations column.
This will open up a translations page to be populated, showing a side-by-side comparison of the existing tag and the translated content you are populating.
You can also use categories within your media hub to organise your content with broader groupings and themes.
