    Request for ability to add hashtags either automatically from WP tags or a box to add them when publishing a post. Hashtags really help Mastodon items

    Hi Tony, I’m currently working on a “template” system (that can be modified later on, before posting) that will support a %tags% “template tag.”

    It is a bit of a challenge, though, so no promises as to when exactly it will launch. Rough estimate is a couple weeks from now.

    Meanwhile—unfortunately, this requires some familiarity with PHP—please have a look at the example at https://gist.github.com/janboddez/068baa33593e34b9e59e9a78aa0df73d

    The gist above is essentially a “mu-plugin,” which modifies your statuses to include part of the content instead of the title, and then adds all tags as hashtags. The documentation page contains similar, somewhat simpler code examples.

    Finally managed to release v0.15.0, which comes with “template tags.”

    You should be able to head over to the plugin settings and create a template like, e.g.:

    “%title%”

%excerpt%

(%permalink%)

%tags%

    Or, you know, something similar, like:

    %title% %permalink%

%tags%

    The latter would be closer to the default (and very basic) format, but with tags appended.
