Tag My Hash

Description

Tag My Hash (#TagMyHash) is a lightweight WordPress plugin that bridges social-media-style hashtag usage with WordPress’s native tag taxonomy. This plugin scans your post content, identifies anything starting with a pound (a.k.a. hashtags sign #), and turns it into a functional part of your site’s tag structure. You no longer have to manually scroll down to the “Tags” meta box every time you want to categorise a quick update. A live front-end demo of this plugin can be found @ LornaTimbah.com.
