  Hey Everyone,

  So I am trying to add a tag into my post and link to other content and I am finding it a little difficult.
  Basically I would like to be able to click on a word and then be sent to all posts that contain this word/tag, if that makes any sense to anyone?

  I would also like to be able to link blogs to other content but I am having trouble as I keep getting a ping back?

  Any advice on both matters would be helpful

  I hope it make sense.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi Jennifer,
  Looks to me as if you’re already aware of how tags work. Your tags seem to be fine and clicking on a tag does display all posts with the same tag.
  If you’re looking to display a tag as a linked word on your post so that clicking on it will filter all posts tagged so – then you only need to copy and link to the URL of that particular tag.
  Here’s some detailed explanation about tags.
  You can also convert your tags into categories then link them your blog post. Here’s how.
  You can read about the difference between tags and categories, here.
  When you link within your blog, then they do appear as ping backs. You need to approve the ping back for the link to work.
  For some more on ping backs, take a look at this page.
  And here’s how you can stop getting self-ping backs.
  Hope this helps.
