If a tag appears to be needed across multiple calendar groups, it can be converted to a Global Tag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best Practices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tags in the calendar system are not like tags in a blog post. These are meant for searchability, so a visitor can type in something like &#8220;Holiday Showcase&#8221; and get search results where they might not get them by typing in &#8220;holidayshowcase&#8221;. Therefore, the tags you create should be typical search terms, not social media tag terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Events are also different from blog posts in that you do not need to create a tag for every keyword regarding your event. Keep your list short and to the point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unless you need to list more than one event by name for use on a calendar view, such as an event listing, you probably do not need a tag. Instead, you should try an alternative option:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-advgb-column advgb-column advgb-is-one-third-tablet advgb-is-full-mobile\" id=\"advgb-col-5befb9b3-a628-4cb5-beed-87d656271b74\"><div class=\"advgb-column-inner\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:1px\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group better-border extra-padding is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tag Naming Conventions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Following these conventions will reduce errors when displaying your event and loss of functionality:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Do not use special characters or formatting such as extra spaces, \u201c\u201d, &amp;, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use camel case on all words (e.g. \u201cInternational\u201d not \u201cinternational\u201d)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep it simple and short<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group link-pop is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Include them in the description.<\/strong>&nbsp;Keywords should be included in your event details that make it searchable. Instead of using words as keywords, use them conversationally within the explanation of the event.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Share to the appropriate calendar groups.<\/strong>\u00a0You can share your events with other calendar groups, so they will see subjects related to them. For example, a Research calendar group is available to share research-related events. If you find that you are creating many events for a specific group, such as an organization,\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:webmaster@tarleton.edu\" data-type=\"mailto\" data-id=\"mailto:webmaster@tarleton.edu\">contact University Web Operations<\/a> about recommending a new calendar group.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Avoid redundancy.<\/strong>&nbsp;Any words used in event types do not need to be created as tags. For example, \u201cAlumni\u201d and \u201cStudent\u201d are already audience event types, so they are searchable when selected for a certain event. \u201cTours\u201d is already part of the name for the event type \u201cOpen Houses and Tours\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"global\">Global Tags<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Global tags are shared across all calendar groups.
