Tags help you make content easier to find by marking it with specific topics, themes, or specialties. Use tags to help people quickly discover content that matches what they care about.
Tags are best for identifying the more specific things your content touches on, like AI, Best Practices, Culture, or Onboarding. The more consistently you tag content, the easier it is for people to browse and filter the catalog.
The article explains how PlusPlus uses channels, collections, tags, and tracks to organize learning content so teams can easily group, discover, filter, and sequence resources into structured learning paths.
How to use tags
Add tags to content when you want to:
Highlight a topic or specialty.
Make related content easier to search and filter.
Group content across different areas.
Help people find content that shares a common theme.
Tips for tagging content
Use clear, consistent tag names.
Apply as many relevant tags as make sense for each piece of content.
Avoid creating duplicate or near-duplicate tags.
Keep tags broad enough to be useful, but specific enough to be meaningful.
Good tagging examples
A piece of content about improving team communication might use tags like:
Communication
Collaboration
Leadership
A training resource about AI basics might use tags like:
AI
Basics
Learning
Using tags well helps your content stay organized and easier to discover as your catalog grows.
Tags are configurable by platform admins only in global settings here:
Adding the tags you want here restricts and ensures users can only filter by tags from this list. Any tags not included will not appear as filter options, and users will not be able to create new tags.
Allowed tags are subject to the restrictions outlined below.
Example, if no tags are setup in global settings, new tags, in an event or other content items, can be added by typing the new tag and clicking on Add "tag name" button below the Tags field

PlusPlus offers Flexible Filters so admins can create any user taxonomy they choose. Customers often use this to define an arbitrary set of skills and assign them to user profiles. Plusplus You can also use them to filter and group users based on those skills and automate workflows like assigning content.
More on Flexible Filters:
As an admin, you can create up to 11 total customized flexible filters Plusplus from Settings > Categories & Tags > Flexible Filters.
You give the filter a label (e.g., "Language"), add the values you want (e.g., English, French, Spanish), and then toggle on which content types it applies to (Events, Tracks, etc.).
After you have created a flexible filter and applied it to a module, your organizers will then have the option of applying selections from that filter to the content they create. Plusplus So if you made a "Language" filter and applied it to Events, the event creation page would show a "Language" field with your options.
Once you have created a flexible filter, users will then see the filter as an additional selector within the content you have applied it to as well as from within the specific menu tabs as filter options. Plusplus
Another practical example: You could create a flexible filter called "Department" with values like Engineering, Sales, Marketing — then apply it to Courses and Tracks. Content creators tag their content accordingly, and learners can filter the catalog by department to find what's relevant to them.
