Wordpress Plugin: tags4page
With the new 2.3 release Wordpress supports a native tagging system for posts. This plugin allows you to insert tags to pages too and not only to posts.
Requirements:
WordPress 2.3 or later (You MUST have at least 2.3 version).
Installation:
- Download the plugin tags4page
- uncompress it with your prefered unzip/untar program or use the command line: tar xzvf tags4page.tar.gz
- copy the file tags4page.php in your plugins directory at your wordpress blog (/wp-content/plugins)
- activate the tags4page Wordpress plugin at your Plugins admin page
Usage:
When you activate the plugin it just works adding the tags field to the page editing form. Fill it with the tags you want in each page.
To view the tags in your blog you have to add the Wordpress function <?php the_tags(); ?> to your themes, please refer to the documentation page for more information.

Thanks to Diarizing for idea.

in wp2.8 tags are handled different. this plugin does Tag the pages, but no tagcloud shows them… it looks like the tags of this plugin does not communicate back to the original tag ging system in Wordpress. Am i right?

Hi, great plugin and about the only one that just does tags for pages without putting in a bunch of other stuff that can break your Wordpress :)
I do have a suggestion, and that’s to add the regular tag management found in the admin Post screens to the admin Page screen. You can see and manage the tags from the admin Post Tags screen, but that only says “Posts – 0″ because obviously it’s just for posts. You can’t see or manage what tags are on the page from the admin Page screen.
I’d be willing to support the development of this if it would help make it happen :D

hi michelle,
it’s 1.5 years later, wp 2.8 came to town and tags4page still work. :)
do you have any plans on updating tags4page to also integrate the new click-tags and suggestions styled tags box of the latest wp versions? would make life easier… ;)

Activated plugin in WP 2.8, and see “Tags (separate multiple tags with commas: cats, pet food, dogs)” on Page Edit. Theme index.php already has <?php if ( function_exists(’the_tags’) ) { the_tags(’<p>Tags: ‘, ‘, ‘, ‘</p>’); } ?>
Tags do not appear on Page.

Hi Michelle,
Fantastic plug in, did work great. however I changed my template to an Artisteer template and for some reason the tags on my pages are gone.
Any idea?

It’s great to see some unique content and a good quality blog for once, actually I would be very interested in doing a link exchange with you.

I’m also using 2.7.1 version of WordPress and I’ll bookmark this page and come back when the issue is resolved. I think this will be a great plugin.

Very useful plug-in.
However I can’t seem to get it to work.
I’m using 2.6.3 also.

Does this work for 2.7?
I’d love to give it a go.
