Create Taxonomy Terms

To create a structure for tagging articles, you will need to create one article to populate the vocabularies for category, tag or byline. These vocabularies do not appear automatically. Once they are listed on the taxonomy page you can add the terms you will be using to each vocabulary item.

To create a structure for tagging people, just click on 'add item' next to the vocabulary item you want to edit.

Arranging Taxonomy Terms

Taxonomy terms are list alphabetical unless you. If you would like re-arrange the list you may do so by grabbing the crosshairs next to the term you would like to arrange and dragging it to the order you would like it to appear. This is most useful when you are grouping people by type on a People List Page.
