“I’m Knight” provided some valuable insights on the reorganization of categories and tags under WordPress
Why reorganize?
- consolidate into fewer categories and make it one level only. No more hierarchy category.
- the tag feature is build-in now. I can just make a open source category and tag each entry with more specific tag like Debian and LAMP.
- tag your old post too, make it more visible to the search engine
- tags can sort out the related posts and help display them to visitors
Tools to use
- Simple Tags The best plugin for tagging under WordPress
- Batch Categories Allow you to mass moving posts between different categories
