New Posting Features - Automatic Thread Tagger From Post Content and Title

VERSION 4.1.2 RELEASED - prepare for real revolution in tags!

What this mod do:
Each time new post arrives (as new thread or reply) this mod will automatically add tags according to post content, title and existing tags in forum. It will also automatically add new tags to old threads.

In details:
It will add only tags which already exists in your forum if it will be included in your post title or content.

It works simple - if title or content includes tag word, then tag will be added to this thread.
Simple and fast. And also have lot of sophisticated functionalities - see below

In more details :
I.e. if you already have in forum such tags as autohypnosis, hypnosis, nlp, and submodalities. Now someone will write post like this (as reply or new thread):

Title: Hello NLP fans
Content: I like to use autohypnosis!

So this mod will automatically add for thread where post is written such tags: autohypnosis, nlp

nlp - cause it is in title; autohypnosis - cause it is in content

hypnosis is included in word autohypnosis, but this mod is smart enough to see that there is no separate word hypnosis neither in title nor in content - so it is not added
submodalities and any other existing tag is not added here, cause it is not included either in content or title of new post.

In more details with sophisticated functionalities :
Also this mod will add tags propositions for each word existing in post title which is not a tag yet. So for this example 2 tags propositions will be added: hello and fans.
You can approve tags propositions manually or set quarantine time after which propositions will automaticaly change to tags.

This mod allows you to define related words for each tag. It means that now tag word don't have to be included in post - it is enough if any of related words is included to add tag :up:
I.e. if you have tag cat then you can define for it related words like: cats,kitty,kitties,lion,tiger. Now if any of those words appears in post then tag cat will be added

This is really great if you want have tag added no matter does word will be used singular or plural, or in which time it will be or maybe in your language you have to inflect words. Like in Polish we have: krowa, krowy, krowie, krową - for same word krowa. Now no matter how is inflected tag word in post and no matter in which language is your forum - this mod will appropriately add this tag!

You can also use this functionality to define tag packs. I.e. I want that every time when someone is writing about hypnosis or trans, booth hypnosis and trans tags to be added. In such case I simply define trans as related word for hypnosis tag and hypnosis as related word for trans tag

This mod also allows you to set default tags for forum. So each new and old thread in forum will be tagged by those tags It could be very useful - for example I have forum with good news and I want each thread in this forum to be tagged by newspaper, and news - so I simply write it in forum configuration and mod cares about everything! Is it great or just amazing?

Also with this mod You can just click one link in menu and it will add tags to all already existing threads. So If you was happy that now all new posts will be properly tagged, I have great news for you - now all threads will be properly tagged - even old one

Also every day this mod will automatically check does some new tags appears and in such case it will add new tags to all already existing threads which includes this keyword in content or title. So now not only all threads will be properly tagged for moment when you use functionality described above. It will keep all tags in all threads up to date continuously



Features:

• Automatically adds tags to new posts/threads according to content, title and already existing tags in forum.
• Allows you to set default tags for forum and will create those tags if don't exists
• Tags related words functionality

• Sophisticated keyword searching (will not add as tags words included in other words)
• Configurable words separators for sophisticated searching
• Automatically adds new tags to old threads (daily)

• Version checking supported

And commercial :
It is very useful for everyone who wants to keep an eye on tags, and doesn't want just each word from title automatically added.

So with this mod you know that only valuable tags are automatically added.

In some languages (like mine - Polish) same word is different according to whole sentence - i.e. in English is just cow and cows - in Polish we have: krowa, krowy, krowie, krową... And I didn't want all of those to make garbage of my tags, so I was not able to mod which was just adding every word which appears in title - it was too weak for me. I really wan to have only valuable tags ant that’s why I created this mod
Also with this mod thanks to related words functionality I'm sure that tag will be added no matter in which person, time or quantity the tag word is used in post! And also allows me to create groups of related tags!

When I wrote post I just to add tags myself, but also had to do this for other users who just add post and doesn't care about tags.
You know that? Now this mod will do it for you and also you will forget about tags writing, because after some time in most forums new tags are very rare, and mostly are used tags which already exist.

It was very important for me to have such solution and I want to share Enjoy!

In my forum after few days of using tag system I added all relevant tags, just with new posts, after that by months used only those (if your forum is about specific topic, or several topics, then all posts are around those topics). So I thought - It is just stupid - I add over and over same tags in my posts, and also had to add when someone forget - why some mod doesn't do this for me?... And now it does

This mod adds tags not only for new topics - but with every post. That was my 2nd nightmare with tags. Topic was about X and after few replies people was talking about Y and Z and other related topics. I had enough to spy every little post and look does thread needs new tags.

If you know what I'm talking about, then it means that, this mod is created for you

This mod doesn't have any settings - just add product and it works

This mod uses only existing tags - so you need to have or setup relevant tags, and after that for each created post (as new thread or reply) tags will be added automatically if post content or topic includes one of already defined tags.

So you add tag once and after this mod knows that it is important and adds it automatically is created post which includes this tag word in content or topic

Yes

I disabled the old onld one and installed this one. So I have some Treads with a lot of senseless tags.
Now I going thru 320 Pages of crab tags - it is some work.
So I recommend to fist disable the old one, than check your tags. If this is done install this Add on.

It works without any harm - you can be calm.

You don't have to think about all possible tags and add those at once. You can still add tags when new post is written if you suspect that such tag doesn’t exist. This mod simply uses tags which exists in forum in post creation time. So when you are writing on very fresh topic - then just add tags manually. After that when anybody mention about it any topic, then this mod will automatically add tag to this topic.

Only thing which is needed, is to define which key words are valuable for you by defining tags. Each time new post is created this mod uses already defined tags to parse content and title of new post and add tags to actual topic. Thanks that you don't finish with garbage in your tags like in mod which just add every existing word in topic, but with this mod you are 100% sure that if someone was writing about one of important topics it will be automatically tagged

Once again - you don't need to write every possible keywords as tags at once. You can add it whenever you want, just knowing that mod will use only already defined tags, to assure you that only valuable keywords are automatically added as tags to new posts/topics.

1st: didn't test it. I just look in their code - we use totally different hooks, so everything should be ok, and should work together

2nd: As I wrote it should, but I didn't test it, and no - you don't have to delete any of your existing tags. Of course you can do this if you think that some tags are not relevant, but it is not necessary. This mod will treat every existing tag as relevant.
