When extracting data using tags, it can be helpful for some tags to have a simple text excerpt as associated data, and for some tags to have a table to fill out. But when is it best for a tag to have text contents vs table contents? | When extracting data using tags, it can be helpful for some tags to have a simple text excerpt as associated data, and for some tags to have a table to fill out.

+ | ===== Configuring Tag Tables ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Configuring tags with table contents is compatible with all tagging modes (Standard and Form-based). Once a tag has been created, a table can be configured alongside it. To do so, select the tag in edit mode, and select " | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | Each tag may only have a text //or// a table contents. You may switch between Text and Table Contents anytime, and the customized columns will be restored when turned back on. After selecting Table Contents, | ||

+ | Columns headers can be altered in Configure Tagging or on the fly during Tagging by clicking the header. | ||

+ | To do so, navigate to the applicable tag in edit mode, select the column in which you'd like to configure options for and add custom options. This replaces the open cell with a drop down of only these options. //You can have only text input or a dropdown of options, not both.// | ||
