Tag objects and link them

When you need it

There are many objects, and you need to see themes or move from an object to its source. Tags give the board one vocabulary; a link on an object leads to an external address or another object.

Tags

You need edit permission on the board.

1. Select a card or a sticky note.
2. In the inspector, open Tags, enter a name, choose a colour and click Add. Result: the tag joins the board vocabulary.
3. Tick the tag under Tags on this object. Result: the object carries it.
4. Click Select (N) on a tag. Result: every object with the tag is selected; the rest stay in place.
5. Rename or delete the tag. A rename changes the label everywhere; a delete removes it from every object.

Links

1. Select one object and open Link.
2. External: paste http://, https:// or mailto: and click Apply.
3. Internal: choose a board object and click its Apply.
4. Open follows the link; Remove clears it.

Check

• Tags and the link are still there after a reload.
• Renaming a tag does not create a second tag.
• An external link opens in a new window; an internal one opens on this board.
• javascript: and data: are refused.

Limits

• 50 tags per board, 10 per object.
• A link grants no access: an internal link opens with the normal rights check.
• The server does not fetch or embed an external address.
• An internal link only targets an object on this board.
