    Since I mostly update the blog from my phone I need a plugin that automatically includes a couple of technorati style link-tags at the bottom of each post.

    Is there a plugin that does this? I can’t seem to find what I need.

  • Ultimate Tag Warrior now supports embedded tags.

    I don’t remember what the inline tagging code is, but basically you can wrap the tags with it’s custom markup, and the post will be tagged as normal.

    Should do the trick.

    The inline tagging code for UTW is [tag]…[/tag].

    Sorry, I can’t see how UTW will help me. Maybe I’m just not seeing it.
    I’ve installed it and activated it but I can’t get it to do what I want.

    I need a field where I can enter a few tags that will always automatically be inserted at the end of my posts.

    Because I often make the posts from my phone I’m never in the write post page so I can’t embed the tags myself.

    I appreciate any help on this.

    With UTW, you can add the tags from your phone itself. Just add the [tag]Stuff[/tag] to your posts.

    Having an “automatic tag” doesn’t really make a whole heck of a lot of sense. Tags are specific to the post content. If you want a generic tag, then that’s more of a category instead. Technorati will pick up your categories as tags automatically.

    Just make sure you set the option to use the embeded tags in UTW. As Otto42 has said, you can add the tags from the phone, by simply using the [tag]technorati tag[/tag] feature. No field needed.

    Ok time to come clean.

    The blog is actually a company CEO’s blog and the CEO will simply never bother with these tags manually.

    The only way to get the tags in the posts is if it’s done automatically.

    If the tags are done automatically, then the tags are worthless and have no value whatsoever.

    Tags are either very specific to the topic at hand, or they’re useless. Use categories if you want automatic.

    I just want to say that I’m changing this topic to “resolved”.
    Thanks everyone for all your input!
