Help with Tags that can only be created by the Moderators but used by everyone

[Jonathan_Murphy (Jon)]

I am looking for some help about tagging. I’ve read through:

It’s Time We Talked About Tags

Set up structured tagging with tag groups and category tag restrictions

Tag support is a core feature of Discourse. In this How-To I’ll go through setting up a tag schema like Car Talk uses. We’ll want to achieve these things: Tags for car makes and car models. Only allow the car make and model tags to be used in certain categories. Car model tags can only be chosen if the matching car make tag is used. Prerequisites First, we need to enable tags in the settings: [tag enabling] In a schema where we’re strict about how tags are used, we should prevent most pe…

Admin guide to tags in Discourse

If you haven’t read it already, It’s Time We Talked About Tags provides an overview of how tags can be used as an organizational tool. Configuring Tags Tag settings can be found in your admin panel under the “Tags” section of your site settings. [tag-site-settings] Tagging is enabled by default.

And many other treads.

I am looking for:

• Tags that can only be created or modified by the Discourse Moderators
• Tags that can be added to a topic or removed from a topic by any user

I did find the Tags Groups but I don’t see a setting similar to the above. And I found Staff Tags but that doesn’t seem right…

I get the impression this is possible but I am just not finding it!

No option for just “Moderators” but surely this is good enough?

[Jonathan_Murphy (Jon)]

Yes!

Can you send me a screen shot of the entire page? Or the URL?

Where can I find more info about this page?

[merefield (Robert)]

Are you an admin of this site? This is the settings

[Jonathan_Murphy (Jon)]

No, just Mod/Staff.

I am trying to convince the admin to enable this feature. If I can make it as easy as possible (i.e., click this) then it always helps!

[merefield (Robert)]

I have no idea what the site name is but you just add: /admin/site_settings/category/tags

Alternatively you can just type the name of that setting in the setting search box, simples.

This is what a passed by → I saw 4. leader and just too easily dismissed it.
