Tags

Tags help you organise entries by topic, project, or any grouping that makes sense for your workflow. They are free-form and you can put as many on an entry as you like — which is the difference between tags and categories, where an entry gets at most one.

Tags belong to the space, so everyone working in it shares the same set and sees each other's as suggestions.

Creating tags

Tags are created inline, as you use them:

1. Open an entry for editing
2. Click the tags field
3. Start typing — existing tags are suggested as you go
4. Press Enter to attach one, and a name that does not exist yet is created on the spot

There is no separate screen for setting tags up in advance, and nothing to do before you start using them.

Filtering by tag

Tags appear as filter chips in search. Pick one to narrow the results to entries carrying it, and pick several to narrow further.

Tips

• Agree on a naming convention with the rest of the space — lowercase and hyphenated is a common choice — because everyone draws from the same list
• A handful of tags per entry stays useful; a dozen stops being a filter
• Reach for a category when an entry has exactly one home, and tags when it has several
