Choosing Event Tags for Your Community

Step into the shoes of thousands of event organizers - understanding your community’s vibe through tags makes all the difference. This screen helps you label your community with relevant tags so members find exactly what they’re looking for.

Prerequisites

Before you start, you’ll need to have created a community and selected a category.

Understanding Community Tags

How to get there: Community Setup > Select Tags

Tags act like digital signposts for your community. Whether you’re hosting a Diwali celebration, a professional networking meetup, or a college fest, tags help potential members discover you and understand what you’re about at a glance.

Think of tags as searchable descriptors - they appear in listings, search results, and member profiles. A wedding planning community might use tags like “Bridal Shopping”, “Venue Scouting”, or “Budget Planning”.

Searching and Selecting Tags

1. Locate the search bar at the top of the available tags section.
2. Enter keywords to filter tags (e.g., “wedding”, “food”, “music”).
3. Browse the filtered list that appears below.
4. Tap any tag you want to add - it highlights in purple and moves to your Selected section at the top.
5. Select multiple tags by repeating steps 3–4. Choose as many as accurately describe your community.

Choose Tags Strategically

Select 3–7 tags that truly represent your community’s focus. Too many dilutes your identity; too few misses discovery opportunities. For a Diwali celebration, use tags like “Festival”, “Celebration”, “Shopping”, and “Dining” rather than vague terms like “Event”.

Managing Your Selections

View selected tags in the purple Selected (X) section at the top. This shows exactly what you’ve picked.

Remove a tag by tapping the × button on any selected tag chip. It returns to the full list and is no longer part of your community definition.

Search within selected tags: your search bar filters both available and selected tags, so you can quickly find and remove something without scrolling.

Remember Your Category

Tags are filtered based on the category you selected in the previous step. If you need tags from a different category, you’ll need to go back and change it.

Moving Forward

Verify your selections before proceeding. Ask yourself: “Would someone searching for these tags find my community valuable?”

Tap the Next button once you’ve selected at least one tag. The button shows your count: Next (3) if you’ve chosen 3 tags.

Next Best Action

After choosing your tags, you’ll fill in your community’s basic details (name, description, location). Most organizers then:

• For paid communities: Set up membership tiers and pricing
• For free communities: Configure approval workflows for member joins

Troubleshooting

“No tags available”: Your selected category has no associated tags. Return to the previous step and choose a different category.

“No tags found” when searching - Try simpler keywords or browse the full list. Tag names might not match your search term exactly.

Can’t proceed to the next step: You must select at least one tag. The Next button remains disabled until you make a selection.

Tag doesn’t match my community: Remove it and continue. You can always edit tags later from your community settings.
