I feel completely daft asking this, but I’ve spent the last 40 minutes looking (including the AI-suggested topics). It seems I can go to myforum/tags, and then to myforum/tag_groups, but once I’m there there’s no wrench or anything, or any way I can see to access tag synonyms or merge tags? [Scre…

You need to visit the tag you want to add synonyms to. So when you are at /tags click the tag so you see the topic list filtered for that tag. Then you select the wrench icon [Screenshot_20260827_174638_Firefox] And there you can edit the tag and add synonyms [Screenshot_20260827_174747_Firefox…

Just adding that I also encountered the same situation, more than once :smiley: Perhaps it could be taken into account in some UX-focused style re-structuring. It’s one of the features that hasn’t been updated to Discourse’s new general style.

Thanks @Moin , I wouldn’t have found that in a week of looking! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: I agree @satonotdead , perhaps needs a bit of a UX tweak to bring it in line with the updated general style :+1:

I am curious: how do you edit a category? I usually use kind of the same steps for that (visiting the category and using the wrench button)

I think something like the new categories page in the admin area might be helpful for tags as well. I like the concept that stuff staff has to configure is available in the admin area.

Cannot find where to access tag synonyms or merge tags

which style update do you mean that isn’t present here? I think the form positioning yes, but the button location is still the same for categories too
