  I can’t find my tags anywhere. Perhaps it is because I do something wrong? http://inaweblog.wordpress.com/cats/ is a page I made today, with tags like cat and cats, but when I search. they are not to be found. Thank you for helping me out on this one.

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

  I’m a complete newbie but I think tags only apply to posts, not pages.

  Only posts can have tags and categories

  You have a post called Cats that has tags
  and you have a page called Cats that doesn’t have tags.

  Yes, thank you husdal, I think it would be nice if pages could have tags as well. Perhaps I will ask the WP guys if that is an option?

  That isn’t likely to happen, because it is contrary how a blog works. A blog is about serving fresh content and the post tags allow readers to always find the newest posts with the same topic (=tag).
