With the proper capability, each tag can be clicked to edit that tag. Of course, if no tags have been assigned to posts, then this section will not appear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"add-new-tag\">Add New Tag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This part of the screen allows you to create a new tag. There are three pieces of information associated with each new tag: the name, slug and description.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"name\">Name<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To reiterate, the tag name&nbsp;must&nbsp;be unique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"slug\">Slug<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The tag slug&nbsp;must&nbsp;be unique. The tag slug is used in the URL for the tag. For example, setting a tag name of &#8220;Recipes&#8221; and a tag slug of &#8220;food&#8221; would show all \u201cRecipes&#8221; posts with a URL like blog.com\/tag\/food\/. If this field is left empty, WordPress will automatically generate a slug based on the title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"description\">Description<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tag descriptions are optional. Some themes display tag descriptions on tag archive pages. Even if your theme does not display them, you might find them useful for organizing your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have entered all the information, press&nbsp;<b>Add New Tag<\/b> to save it. It will appear in the tag table instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"table-of-tags\">Table of Tags<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This table lists all of your tags by row. Tags are displayed alphabetically by tag name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The table of tags contains the following columns:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><b>[ ]<\/b>:&nbsp;A checkbox that when clicked (checked), &#8216;selects&#8217; that particular tag to be deleted when the delete action is applied.<\/li><li><b>Name<\/b>:&nbsp;The name of the tag. Remember each name must be unique. Click on the tag&#8217;s name to&nbsp;edit the tag.<\/li><li><b>Description<\/b>:&nbsp;The description of the tag.<\/li><li><b>Slug<\/b>:&nbsp;The slug of a tag, and must be unique.<\/li><li><b>Count<\/b>:&nbsp;The number of posts which have this tag assigned. Click on the number in the count column to be directed to the posts screen&nbsp;to manage the posts in that tag.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"screen-options\">Screen Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2188\" height=\"452\" src=\"https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options.png\" alt=\"Screen Options for the Tags page.\" class=\"wp-image-568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options.png 2188w, https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options-300x62.png 300w, https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options-768x159.png 768w, https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options-1024x212.png 1024w, https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options-450x93.png 450w, https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options-600x124.png 600w, https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options-1200x248.png 1200w, https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options-900x186.png 900w, https:\/\/wplook.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Tags-screen-options-1800x372.png 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2188px) 100vw, 2188px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><strong>Screen Options<\/strong> for the Tags page.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The screen options&nbsp;allow you to choose which columns are displayed, or not displayed, in the underlying table. Clicking on the <strong>Screen Options<\/strong> tab shows a list of the columns with a check-box next to each column. Check the box for each column you want displayed in the table, or uncheck the box to not display that column. In addition, the number of tags to display in the table of tags&nbsp;can be set. Click the screen options tab again to close the screen options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"search\">Search<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Above the table, to the right, is a search box where you can enter a word, or series of words, and click the <strong>Search Tags<\/strong> button to search and display all the tags meeting your search words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"using-selection-actions-and-apply\">Using Selection, Actions, and Apply<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"selection\">Selection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This section allows actions to be performed on one or more tags displayed in the table. For actions to be performed on multiple tags at once, those tags must be first selected via one of these methods:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><b><\/b><b>Select one tag at a time<\/b>:&nbsp;To select a tag, the <b>checkbox<\/b> to the left of the tag entry must be checked (clicked). It is possible to keep selecting more tags by checking their respective checkbox.<\/li><li><b><\/b><b>Select all tags in given table<\/b>:&nbsp;All tags in a given table can be selected by checking the <b>checkbox<\/b> in the table\u2019s <b>title bar<\/b>, or <b>footer bar<\/b>. Conversely, unchecking the header or footer title bar checkbox will cause all entries in that table to be unchecked (NOT selected).<\/li><li><b><\/b><b>Reverse selection<\/b>:&nbsp;A reverse selection means checked items become unchecked, and unchecked items become checked. A reverse selection is accomplished by holding the <b>Shift key<\/b> on the keyboard and clicking the <b>header or footer title bar checkbox<\/b>.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"actions\">Actions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Actions describe the process to be performed on particular tags. There are two styles of actions that will be referred to as <i>bulk actions<\/i>&nbsp;and <i>immediate actions.<\/i> The following describes these actions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><b><\/b><b>Bulk actions<\/b>:&nbsp;These actions can be performed on one, or more tags, at one time, if those tags have been previously&nbsp;selected. Bulk actions are available, when appropriate, as choices in the <b>Bulk Actions dropdown<\/b>, above the table. The only bulk actions allowed is <b>Delete<\/b>. Once you have selected an action from this dropdown, click&nbsp;<b>Apply<\/b> to activate it.<\/li><li><b><\/b><b>Immediate actions<\/b>:&nbsp;Immediate actions are performed immediately, on an individual tag. Hovering the mouse cursor over the tag row reveals the <b>Edit<\/b>, <b>Quick Edit, Delete<\/b>, and <b>View<\/b> options under the Title column, in that tag\u2019s row.
