    Question How to import feeds with tag?

    I am using the RSS importer to get some feeds, but the tags of the feed cannot be auto imported, does anybody know how to set the tags?
    I am new here, thank you!

    Use title or category. There's many topics about this so try the search and you'll find some answers.

    Also, most feeds do NOT include tags within their feed automatically. There are some that do, and it will likely be labeled as KEYWORDS. So, after you import your feeds, look for that field first -- if it's there, then attach that field to the TAGS field. If not, then the only thing you can do is to attach the title or category to the tags field.

    One thing you should know though -- tags are rather a problem right now and do not work as they should, as they do not seem to populate the tag cloud correctly (if using rss import) and they also create duplicate content throughout your site. Google hates duplicate content and will penalize you for it. I use tags as a form of navigation only, not for SEO purposes. Regardless, I'd recommend adding this fix if you plan on using tags. Tags can be helpful for navigation, but as of now (Pligg v.9.8.2), they don't seem to be very stable right now -- and more importantly, you don't want to get penalized from Google.
