This plugin allows tagging pages. List tags as follows:
- \[[tag tech life linux]]
+ \[[!tag tech life linux]]
+
+The tags work the same as if you had put a (hidden) [[ikiwiki/WikiLink]] on
+the page for each tag, so you can use a [[ikiwiki/PageSpec]] match all
+pages that are tagged with a given tag, for example. The tags will also
+show up on blog entries and at the bottom of the tagged pages, as well as
+in RSS and Atom feeds.

+This plugin has a configuration option. Set --tagbase=tags and links to tags
will be located under the specified base page. If ikiwiki is configured
this way, then the example above actually tags the page with the tags
tags/tech, tags/life, and tags/linux. This is a useful way to avoid
having to write the full path to tags, if you want to keep them grouped
together out of the way.
-This plugin is included in ikiwiki, but is not enabled by default. If it is
-enabled, you'll see a note below that this page is tagged with the "tags"
-tag.
+If you want to override the tagbase for a particular tag, you can use
+something like this:
+
+ \[[!tag ./foo]]
+ \[[!taglink /foo]]
