thank your interesting , look forward to your suggestion and respond :)

It sound great ,but ,isn't that the same as Thread prefix ,or at least similar to it ?

It's certainly different, you can learn more about tags from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tags


A tag is a keyword which acts like a subject or category. A keyword is used to organize webpages and objects on the Internet. Each user "tags" a webpage or image using his/her own unique tag. An image or webpage may have multiple tags that identify it. Webpages and images with identical tags are then linked together and users may use the tag to search for similar webpages and images.


Usage

Tags can be used to specify properties of an object that are not obvious to the object itself. Tags can be used to find objects with similar properties or to organize objects.

Tags are often used in social software and Web 2.0 pages. The method of allowing open categorization of the Internet is often referred to as Folksonomy.

Bookmark Tags are used in Flock (web browser) and will surface in Firefox 2.0

Popular websites that use Tags

* Del.icio.us [1] - A social bookmarking site that allows users to bookmark many sites and then tag them with many descriptive words allowing other people to search by those terms to find pages that other people found useful. See Also: Social bookmarking
* Gmail [2] - A popular web-mail site that was one of the first to allow categorization of objects using tags, known as "labels" on emails.
* Flickr [3] - A service that allows users to tag images with many specific nouns, verbs, and adjectives which describe the picture. This is then searchable. See Also: Metadata#Image metadata
* Basecamp [4] - A project collaboration service that allows users working on projects to tag portions of their work making it easy to find data.

Perfect, i have been requesting and looking for a tagging system for vBulletin ever since vBulletin 3.5 began in development. Judging by the screenshots it looks just as fluent and intergrated as any blog tagging system would be.

/me installs.

Well thanks ,I might reconsider this hack again now .
Thanks for the help again ...

HI

I have installed...

the tags i have just added are showing 2 xx for removing the tags

Also the text on the foruhome is way too big... sime in the tag page as well

EDIT....I take it this is what the clod thingy is for in the options :)

Also All the time, should be All Time

Also i feel that Today This week All Time should be in a cell of its own and along side the actual tags?

Also the username in the postbit is far too big

Could you please address these for me?

Nicey!

/me clicks on install

If you have forums for certain usergroups only and you set a tag in that forum it shows the tag and the thread to everyone :(

Please can this be address ASAP?
