Enabling and Managing Hashtags and Tags

This tutorial will show you how to manage your tags for your site. With phpFox, you can either have Tags or Hashtags.

Here is what each one looks like:

Normal Tags (Enabled by default):

Hashtags:

Tag Settings

In order to set your tags the way you want them, go to Apps >> Installed >> Tag

Setting Cache

The tags need to be cached for better performance. As such, this will delay new tags showing up but not by that much. To change it, when in the Tag settings, change the Cache to be what you want. Note that it is in minutes. Putting this too high can have detrimental effects on your site.

Setting Display Minimum

To change how many tags need to be added before they display when in the Tag Settings, change the value for the Display Minimum to be what you want. For example, if someone puts phpFox as a tag, how many other tags for phpFox would need to be also be added to the site before it would show up in the tag cloud blocks.

Total Tags/Hashtags Display in Tag Cloud block

To change the total Tags/Hashtags Display in Tag Cloud block when in the Tag Settings, change the value for Total Tags/Hashtags Display in Tag Cloud block

Setting the Days a Tag can Trend

To change how many days that tags display in the Trending Topics block when in the Tag Settings, change the value for Days a Tag Can Trend to be what you want.
