Thanks for your following up! And sorry for not linking or proper reply about tag groups before (I was doing another thing at the same time haha and I don’t like to be that way 🙏)

Now I’m thinking about the best approach for that use case and I’m fully open to read your toughts if you want to share.

**Should tags be allowed/limited by lockdown (plus new functionality) before categories?**

> So, if we got ‘Encrypt plugin - download link’ and ‘Encrypt plugin internal discussion’ threads tagged with `#customization:plugin` they will be displayed in `#plugins` (trust\_level\_1 only allowed by category) and `#staff-stuff` (trust\_level\_4 only allowed by category).
