Topic Tags are a free form method of categorization, currently being used to group and categorize similar topics. The goal of using these tags in the forum is to create a “heat map”, an index of topics covered within the Forum. The larger the size of the tag, the more discussions about the topic.
When you create a new topic, consider adding a tag! Suggested/existing tags will populate as you begin typing. Tags are displayed on the right side bar.
Additionally, we have several topic prefixes that can be used to categorize your topic. Prefixes help topics stand out in various lists, while also categorizing them. Prefixes are also displayed on the right side bar.
