We use the term `topic` to mean the conversation, beginning with the first `post`. So the `topic` is the **original post** and all the subsequent `posts` in the conversation. You are not able to tag the posts individually, but you can add the tag to the topic.

If a post within that topic is different or unrelated, and therefore requires a different tag, you can always select it and convert it into a NEW `topic` or merge it with another relevant one.
