Tagging Posts & Library Items


To add a tag to a post, type the hashtag (#) symbol followed by the word or phrase you want to include as you would on other social platforms. When you begin to type the tag, a list of unblocked, available tags will provide autocomplete suggestions. 


Students must choose selections from the list, but teachers can add new tags by typing the desired new tag and hitting spacebar or enter if they do not see it among the autocomplete suggestions.


Note: MySciLife administrators control the tags inside MySciLife, and they can remove or delete tags at any time.


See the Blocked Tags article for more information.
