Upgrading Tag Functionality

by Jeff Starr on Tuesday, April 18, 2006 Comments

Before today, the extent of my concern with tags involved local post tags via UTW and meta keywords via Autometa. Wanting to dive deeper into tagging, I added metadata Technorati tag links as icons appearing after each local tag link, generally located within post meta information. Adding the icon links is easy. Go to the UTW Options panel and in the “Global Formatting Settings” section, select the Technorati Tag. Then simply add the following (or something similar 1) to your index.php WP loop:

<?php UTW_ShowTagsForCurrentPost("iconlist") ?>

More display options include:

<?php UTW_ShowTagsForCurrentPost("commalist") ?>
<?php UTW_ShowTagsForCurrentPost("technoraticommalist") ?>
<?php UTW_ShowRelatedTagsForCurrentTagSet("commalist") ?>
