Tag entries

In Award Force, you can create and apply tags to entries. Tagging allows you to add additional information to assist managing entries, particularly through judging panel configuration. Tagging is often used in programs that have multiple stages of judging (e.g. qualifying, shortlisting, finalist and winner selection).

How do I tag an entry?

Tagging an entry can be done in two ways:

Individually:

1. From Entries > Manage entries, click an entry.
2. Under Tags, in the tag input field simply type anything you want (single or multiple words).
3. Previously used tags appear in a list as you type.
4. Click Save to create/apply the tag.

In bulk:

1. From Entries > Manage entries, or on Judging > Leaderboard, select the checkbox to the left of each entry you want to tag
2. Within the Actions dropdown box, click Tag
   
3. In the tag input field that appears, type in anything you want (single or multiple words)
4. Previously used tags appear in a list as you type
5. Click Add to create/apply the tag to all entries you selected
