TalentLMS lets you organize your files with tags. Tags help you instantly categorize and label files without sorting them into endless layers of folders. There are two types of tags in TalentLMS: auto-generated file-type tags and custom tags.
In this article, you’ll learn:
- To a file in a Course
- To a file in a Group
- To a file in a Branch
- To a file shared with a User
B. How to use the auto-generated file-type tags
You can add tags to files in a Course, Group, Branch, or User. They all follow a similar pattern. The tag is applied across any page that includes this file. For example, if you've added a file in a course and a group and added the tag from the course, the tag will also be visible to the group.
