<hr />
<div>==General Guidelines for Blog Posts/Pages==<br />
===Length===<br />
* sufficient to cover topic<br />
* shorter is always better - just enough to cover the content<br />
<br />
===Formatting===<br />
* one space between sentences - not two!<br />
* avoid ALL CAPS<br />
* use a spell checker<br />
* break post into small paragraphs rather than one large chunk of text<br />
<br />
===Post Titles===<br />
* keep them short, snappy, and descriptive<br />
* capitalize every word except prepositions (like a book title)<br />
<br />
===Internal Post Structure===<br />
* Bulleted lists are great<br />
* Subheads are great - helps people quickly scan content<br />
* Images that complement article tend to attract readers (see guidelines for finding and posting images on [http://blogs.ubc.ca/leapauthors/ the Learning Commons Support Blog])<br />
<br />
===Specific Words===<br />
Be consistent with these terms!<br />
* email (all one word, all lowercase)<br />
* website (all one word, all lowercase)<br />
* webpage (all one word, all lowercase)<br />
* web (lowercase)<br />
* Internet (uppercase "I")<br />
<br />
===Tags===<br />
* Use 2-3 descriptive tags for each post<br />
* Tags are usually keywords that are descriptive of the content of a post<br />
* These should be different from a category. A category refers to the organization of a page/post (page parent, etc). Refer to [http://blogs.ubc.ca/leapauthors/ the Learning Commons Support Blog]<br />
<br />
===Links===<br />
* For book titles<br />
** make the book title the link text<br />
** don't include the URL with the book title<br />
Do this: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hobbit The Hobbit] (where "The Hobbit" is the text used for the link)<br />
<br />
Don't do this: The Hobbit - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hobbit (where "The Hobbit" is NOT the link text, but the URL is also used as the link text)<br />
<br />
===Other Links===<br />
* When linking to webpages or blog posts, make the webpage title or blog title the link text<br />
* Refer to the link within a sentence, like this:<br />
<blockquote>"UBC has a great learning commons that everyone should visit."</blockquote><br />
:"Great learning commons" would be the link text used for the CLC URL<br />
*Another example:<br />
**Don't write:<br />
<blockquote>"You can read the full report here"</blockquote><br />
:Using words like "here" or "click here" is generally bad practice.<br />
<br />
<br />
:*Instead, say:<br />
<blockquote>"The charity released a report, which said..."</blockquote><br />
:"A report" is the link text, and is incorporated within the sentence. This type of internal link reads better<br />
<br />
===Citing/Attribution===<br />
It's important to give proper attribution to sources, even online. Here's how to do it:<br />
* Blog posts, newspaper articles, other websites<br />
** See the Links section above or linking<br />
** When you quote someone else's text, make sure to link to the original source<br />
** With the link to the original source, reference the site. For example, say <br />
<br />
::"Here's a lovely article on the Topeka Ave. bridge project (from the Topeka Capital Journal)."<br />
<br />
:"Lovely article" links to the specific article, and "Topeka Capital Journal" links to the newspaper's main site<br />
<br />
* Images<br />
** If using an image from flickr, photobucket, or some other photo sharing service, include some type of attribution/pointer back to the original photo at the end of the article (i.e., "photo courtesy of JimBob" - "JimBob" would link back to the original photo).<br />
** Use photos with a Creative Commons license when possible<br />
<br />
* Videos<br />
** Include some type of link/attribution/pointer back to the original video (i.e., link to the YouTube video if you use a video from YouTube)<br />
<br />
* How much of a quote can I do?<br />
**There are no legal rules permitting the use of a specific number of words, a certain number of musical notes, or percentage of a work."<br />
**Canada's rules are around "fair dealing" - need to check to see if this complies<br />
** Don't quote the whole thing!<br />

[[Category:Learning_Commons_Site_Editing]]</div>CeliaHuanghttps://wiki.ubc.ca/index.php?title=Documentation:WordPress/Tags&diff=600538Documentation:WordPress/Tags2020-06-12T18:44:54Z<p>CeliaHuang: /* Master List of Tags */</p>
<hr />
<div>Tags - which are somewhat similar to [[Documentation:WordPress/Categories|categories]] - are a great tool for highlighting key concepts in posts. While categories are most used for grouping similar posts in a general sense, tags are generally used for more specific distinctions and can be seen as keywords. Most importantly, tags help define your content. This allows for users to perform more specific searches and find links to related topics.<br />
<br />
'''NOTE:''' Unlike categories, tags do not have any hierarchical structure.<br />
<br />
To access all of your current post tags or create new ones go to the ''Post Tags'' page under ''Dashboard > Posts > Post Tags''.<br />
<br />
==Post Tags Page==<br />
The ''Post Tags'' page contains three sections: ''Popular Tags'', ''[[#Through the Post Tags Page|Add New Tag]]'', and a tag list. The page also features a search bar at the top right for quickly finding the desired tag.<br />
<br />
The ''Popular Tags'' section simply lists all of the most popular tags in alphabetical order. The font size of a particular tag directly reflects its popularity. In other words, the bigger it is, the more it's being used in posts. Clicking on a tag will open up the ''[[#Full Editing|Edit Tag]]'' page for that particular tag.<br />
<br />
The tag list displays all of your existing tags. It shows the tag's name, description, slug, and the number of posts that the tag is used in. If you scroll over a tag name in the list, the following links appear: ''[[#Full Editing|Edit]]'', ''[[#Quick Edit|Quick Edit]]'', and ''[[#Delete Tags|Delete]]''.<br />
<br />
==Master List of Tags==<br />
Compiled in 2020, the [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uccDMHXzzG416HmknGgSvmzNX_euCoPeWOU9bhAitoE/edit?usp=sharing Master List of Tags] is a condensed version of the most frequently used tags on our website. Before posting the final version of your blog post, you may wish to refer to this list to gain insight on what sorts of tags have already been used. Please note that while you are tagging it is imperative to double-check the capitalization of your tag and that it lines up with the information in the document as the tagging system is case sensitive. <br />
<br />
==Add Tags==<br />
<br />
Tags can be added in two different locations on the WordPress [[Documentation:WordPress/Dashboard|''Dashboard'']]: the ''Post Tags'' page, and the ''Add New Post'' and ''Edit Post'' pages.<br />
<br />
===Through the Post Tags Page===<br />
The ''Post Tags'' page (located at ''Dashboard > Posts > Post Tags'') contains an ''Add New Tag'' section. To add a new tag from here, simply:<br />
# Enter the tag name<br />
# ''Optional:'' Add a description of your tag<br />
# Click on the ''Add New Tag'' button - you can now use your tag for all of your posts<br />
<br />
===Through the Add New Post or Edit Post Page===<br />
The ''Add New Post'' and ''Edit Post'' pages (found by going to ''Dashboard > Posts > Posts'' and clicking on the ''Add New'' button or on an existing post, respectively) contain a ''Post Tags'' section that allows users to add new tags on the fly. Simply type all your new tags in the ''Add New Tag'' field, each separated by a comma character (',') (note that you cannot add a description for tags using this section). Once you are done, click on the ''Add'' button and you'll add your new tags to both the post you're working on and the ''Post Tags'' page. If you wish to add a description for the tag that you've created using this method, you can do so by [[#Full Editing|editing the tag]].<br />
<br />
'''IMPORTANT:''' If you use this method to add new tags, the post that you are working on will automatically be tagged with your new tags. If you do not want this, please add new tags through the ''[[#Through the Post Tags Page|Post Tags]]'' page.<br />
<br />
'''NOTE:''' The ''Post Tags'' section may be disabled for your ''Add New Post'' and ''Edit Post'' pages. To enable the ''Post Tags'' section in this case, simply go into ''Screen Options'' (found on the top-right of the page) and ensure that the ''Post Tags'' checkbox is checked off.<br />
<br />
==Edit Tags==<br />
<br />
Tags can be edited by visiting the ''Post Tags'' (''Dashboard > Posts > Post Tags'') page. If a tag is edited, the change will be manifested in all posts and other areas where the tag is being used.<br />
<br />
===Quick Edit===<br />
You can quickly edit a tag by simply scrolling over its name in the category list on the ''Post Tags'' page and clicking on the ''Quick Edit'' link; however, this option only allows you to edit the tag's name.<br />
<br />
===Full Editing===<br />
To fully edit a tag, click on that tag's name (or the tag's ''Edit'' link) in the tag list on the ''Post Tags'' page to open the ''Edit Tag'' page. On the ''Edit Tag'' page, you can edit the tag's name and description. Once you're finished with your changes, simply click on the ''Update'' button and you're done!<br />
<br />
==Delete Tags==<br />
<br />
To delete tags:<br />
# Go to ''Dashboard > Posts > Post Tags''<br />
# Find the desired tag in the tag list OR search for it using the search bar at the top right of the page<br />
# Hover over the tag and click on the ''Delete'' link that appears OR check off the tag's checkbox, select ''Delete'' in the ''Bulk Actions'' dropdown, and click on the ''Apply'' button.<br />
<br />
==Tagging Posts==<br />
To tag a post:<br />
# Go to the post's ''Edit'' page (go ''Dashboard > Posts > Posts'' and then click on the post's name).<br />
#* '''NOTE:''' Tagging a new post in the new post page (''Dashboard > Posts > Posts'' - click on ''Add New'' button) is exactly the same.<br />
# Find the ''Post Tags'' section on this page.<br />
#* '''NOTE:''' The ''Post Tags'' section may be disabled for your ''Add New Post'' and ''Edit Post'' pages. To enable the ''Post Tags'' section in this case, simply go into ''Screen Options'' (found on the top-right of the page) and ensure that the ''Post Tags'' checkbox is checked off.<br />
# Type in all your tags in the ''Add New Tag'' field, each tag separated by a comma character (','). You can also select tags from a list of most used tags by clicking on the ''Choose from the most used tags'' link and then selecting your desired tags (the size of a tag is proportional to its popularity)<br />
# Click on the ''Update'' link in the ''Publish'' section of the page to finalize changes.<br />

'''NOTE:''' Unlike categories, tags do not have any hierarchical structure.<br />
<br />
To access all of your current post tags or create new ones go to the ''Post Tags'' page under ''Dashboard > Posts > Post Tags''.<br />
<br />
==Post Tags Page==<br />
The ''Post Tags'' page contains three sections: ''Popular Tags'', ''[[#Through the Post Tags Page|Add New Tag]]'', and a tag list. The page also features a search bar at the top right for quickly finding the desired tag.<br />
<br />
The ''Popular Tags'' section simply lists all of the most popular tags in alphabetical order. The font size of a particular tag directly reflects its popularity. In other words, the bigger it is, the more it's being used in posts. Clicking on a tag will open up the ''[[#Full Editing|Edit Tag]]'' page for that particular tag.<br />
<br />
The tag list displays all of your existing tags. It shows the tag's name, description, slug, and the number of posts that the tag is used in. If you scroll over a tag name in the list, the following links appear: ''[[#Full Editing|Edit]]'', ''[[#Quick Edit|Quick Edit]]'', and ''[[#Delete Tags|Delete]]''.<br />
<br />
==Master List of Tags==<br />
Compiled in 2020, the [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DS0JsToOcCwja4CQAr3Ltd2u_QRuRREP0oqrwkXF3ks/edit Master List of Tags] is a condensed version of the most frequently used tags on our website. Before posting the final version of your blog post, you may wish to refer to this list to gain insight on what sorts of tags have already been used. Please note that while you are tagging it is imperative to double-check the capitalization of your tag and that it lines up with the information in the document as the tagging system is case sensitive. <br />
<br />
==Add Tags==<br />
<br />
Tags can be added in two different locations on the WordPress [[Documentation:WordPress/Dashboard|''Dashboard'']]: the ''Post Tags'' page, and the ''Add New Post'' and ''Edit Post'' pages.<br />
<br />
===Through the Post Tags Page===<br />
The ''Post Tags'' page (located at ''Dashboard > Posts > Post Tags'') contains an ''Add New Tag'' section. To add a new tag from here, simply:<br />
# Enter the tag name<br />
# ''Optional:'' Add a description of your tag<br />
# Click on the ''Add New Tag'' button - you can now use your tag for all of your posts<br />
<br />
===Through the Add New Post or Edit Post Page===<br />
The ''Add New Post'' and ''Edit Post'' pages (found by going to ''Dashboard > Posts > Posts'' and clicking on the ''Add New'' button or on an existing post, respectively) contain a ''Post Tags'' section that allows users to add new tags on the fly. Simply type all your new tags in the ''Add New Tag'' field, each separated by a comma character (',') (note that you cannot add a description for tags using this section). Once you are done, click on the ''Add'' button and you'll add your new tags to both the post you're working on and the ''Post Tags'' page. If you wish to add a description for the tag that you've created using this method, you can do so by [[#Full Editing|editing the tag]].<br />
<br />
'''IMPORTANT:''' If you use this method to add new tags, the post that you are working on will automatically be tagged with your new tags. If you do not want this, please add new tags through the ''[[#Through the Post Tags Page|Post Tags]]'' page.<br />
<br />
'''NOTE:''' The ''Post Tags'' section may be disabled for your ''Add New Post'' and ''Edit Post'' pages. To enable the ''Post Tags'' section in this case, simply go into ''Screen Options'' (found on the top-right of the page) and ensure that the ''Post Tags'' checkbox is checked off.<br />
<br />
==Edit Tags==<br />
<br />
Tags can be edited by visiting the ''Post Tags'' (''Dashboard > Posts > Post Tags'') page. If a tag is edited, the change will be manifested in all posts and other areas where the tag is being used.<br />
<br />
===Quick Edit===<br />
You can quickly edit a tag by simply scrolling over its name in the category list on the ''Post Tags'' page and clicking on the ''Quick Edit'' link; however, this option only allows you to edit the tag's name.<br />
<br />
===Full Editing===<br />
To fully edit a tag, click on that tag's name (or the tag's ''Edit'' link) in the tag list on the ''Post Tags'' page to open the ''Edit Tag'' page. On the ''Edit Tag'' page, you can edit the tag's name and description. Once you're finished with your changes, simply click on the ''Update'' button and you're done!<br />

<div>Tags - which are somewhat similar to [[Documentation:WordPress/Categories|categories]] - are a great tool for highlighting key concepts in posts. While categories are most used for grouping similar posts in a general sense, tags are generally used for more specific distinctions and can be seen as keywords. Most importantly, tags help define your content. This allows for users to perform more specific searches and find links to related topics.<br />
<br />
'''NOTE:''' Unlike categories, tags do not have any hierarchical structure.<br />
