Tagging Books/Commentaries/etc.

Post by jonathangkoehn »

Any ideas on a standard for tagging modules through the "Insert Manager"
These tags could be anywhere throughout the module, but they should help with searching books.

Language tags:
@eng for English
@esp for Spanish
@grk for Greek
@ then language code
Generic tags:
#devo for Devotional
#exeg for Exegetical
#lex for Lexicon

They could also be added in like 1 point font "invisible" but still there.

And is there a way to search for keywords on a module?

So the idea would be.
I want to search my exegetical commentaries for a passage on 1 John.
I type in #exeg 1 John and make sure search topic content is enabled along with all words.
Now if I've tagged my exegetical commentaries I should find 1 John in just those.

Thoughts? To complicated?

Maybe this would be better in category or keywords of a module?
Could those be added to the book search?

I see searchable sets are kinda like this. One could group commentaries into Exegetical set, or devotional set hmms.

I have grouped all my modules after the pattern DDT presented on his website, and this really helps when doing searches. The tagging concept is very interesting, but seems difficult and time-consuming to implement. Am I misunderstanding something on how to effectively use tagging?
