Categories and Synonyms Site News chapter 4 by swai

Synonyms

Tags now have synonyms: tags that mean the same thing. If you search for, say, "butt", anything tagged with "ass" will also be included. 

  • Synonyms don't affect how you have to tag your stories. You can add any tag to your story and search for any tag. But you don't really need to tag things with both "butt" and "ass" anymore.
  • You can turn off synonym search by deselecting "Include tag synonyms" on the search page. You'll only get results for the exact tags you search for.

 

Categories

Tags are now grouped together in categories: labels that group tags belonging to the same fetish, genre, or story concept, etc. 

  • You can search for stories in a category, and find everything that has "giantess" tags, or "vore" tags, and so on.
  • A story belongs to a category if it is tagged with something in that category. You can't add stories directly to a category.
  • Tags can belong to multiple categories or none.

 

Help us organize our tags!

The organization of tags into categories and synonyms is currently a work in progress. I have already done some work in creating broad categories and making common synonyms, but there are many more to do, and I'm not familiar with every genre on the site.

 

So, I could use your help!

  • Every tag and category has a "suggest changes" link. You can suggest changes to: 
    • descriptions/definitions
    • synonyms of a tag
    • what categories a tag belongs to

 

I'm not completely sure how to organize the categories themselves - right now we have "fetish" categories and "other" categories, which doesn't seem like quite the right types. So this is a work in progress.

 

Other random changes

  • Reworked the home page a bit. Some of the links are now in the footer.
  • Made Series and Collections less discoverable. We didn't have very many, and they aren't a popular feature. They still exist, but they're less in-your-face.
  • Doing a search for a query that matches a tag also searches for that tag. (If you search "giantess", you'll also get results with the tag giantess.) This can be turned off by enabling "Exact text search"
