Why your web site will benefit from organizing your tags into groups
Most WordPress sites mix up tags that should actually be separated by topics: places, people, features, years and more.
Your tags, however, will become much more useful if you organize them in groups. Imagine a tag cloud where all places appear in a “Places” group, all names under “Names” and all years under “Years”. The Tag Groups plugin lets you do exactly that.
How to use tag groups
After activating the plugin, you will be guided by an optional setup wizard.
First you create groups that will contain your tags. Then you sort your tags into these groups. You can later always come back and modify the groups or change the tags. You don’t even need any groups if you prefer to show your tags sorted by alphabet.
Filters and bulk actions make your work with tags much easier, and you can even filter the list of posts in your backend by the groups that their tags belong to.
Not only tags
Tag Groups works also great with most other (flat) taxonomies, like WooCommerce product tags.
The plugin does not support hierarchical taxonomies like categories.
Possible applications
