  Hi support

  I originally put tags for my post in uppercase but then realised they should all be in lowercase. On changing the tags to lowercase and clicking on ‘update’ the editor converts them back to uppercase… How can I stop this from happening?

  Thanks
  Mark

  Hi @evolvingcitizen, sounds like you are trying to edit the tags in the post. If you want to edit the tags, you need to go inside the dashboard and edit them in the Post Tags area. Here is a link that explains how to modify your tags permanently, http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/tags/

  Once you make the changes there, it will save the changes for the rest of your posts.

  @evolvingcitizen
  Will you please provide a link to an example of tags being depicted in capital letters despite the fact your entered them in lower case lettering?

  @weschyrchel Thank You! In dashboard/posts/tags I edited all uppercase tags and clicked apply. Then I noticed that, weirdly, only some of the posts we have published had not automatically updated with the new lowercase tags, so I needed to go into ‘quickedit’ on each post (on the all posts page) and click update. Thanks for putting me on the right track.
