Tag Manager

The Tag Manager allows you to take control of your site’s taxonomy. Transform chaos into organization by renaming, merging, and managing tags across your entire content library in seconds.

Features

Section titled “Features”

Batch Rename

Rename a tag across hundreds of files instantly. No more find-and-replace errors.

Merge Tags

Clean up duplicates like ai and artificial-intelligence by merging them into a single canonical tag.

Usage Statistics

See exactly how many times each tag is used and identify unused or rare tags.

Unmapped Detection

Automatically detect “unmapped” tags that exist in your content but aren’t defined in your taxonomy.

How it Helps

Section titled “How it Helps”

As your site grows, your tag list can become messy. Typos, duplicates, and inconsistencies make it harder for visitors to find related content. The Tag Manager solves this by providing a central dashboard to audit and clean up your taxonomy.
