Tag Overview

This is an overview of the tagging method used on this site. World Anvil can do some pretty neat things with tags, if you set them up correctly. LotD uses the glossary method as shared by Satrium to make advanced indices. This page is primarily a reference for me to remember the specific tag syntax.   I abbreviate the syntax of the tags so you can still search for things on the site without getting spammed by all the things that are using this tag system. Most of them either get abbreviated, have less or removed vowels, or both.      

Tagging System

Aside from the indexing tags, articles have normal sets of tags, too. Here's what I do for specific types of article pages.

General Tagging Syntax

      There are also some universal tags that aren't specific to an article's type. These are more utility based ones, and are specific to World Anvil challenges and events. They've got their own CSS styling!

Event Tags

      There are some specific tags for highlighting sidebar menu items. Most will use a tag based on what type the article is, but there's a few that need specific tags, like category and event pages.

Menu Highlighting Tags

      I've also included content warning tags. These allow a spoiler, with the respective tags, to display at the top of a page, under the title. This is for a quick and easy way to know if there is potentially sensitive content, without (possibly) major lore spoilers. This is more for if you're reading proses aloud to the public / on a livestream somewhere and you want it to be advertiser / family friendly.

Content Warning Tags

      Very specific tags are used to show specific navboxes for specific pages. Such as pages within an Organization article, that don't show up on a category page, that show's the hierarchy structure of the organization. They're like the indexing tags, but they aren't used for indexing, and I didn't want it to be based on the Category Type, because specificity.
