You can delete tags from the Tags library. Deleting a tag removes it from all articles or categories where it's been used.
Authors with the default Editor or Writer role can delete tags. If you're using a custom role, you'll need to have the Tag Permission to Delete tags.
To delete a tag:
- Select Tags from the left navigation.
- Select the tag or tags you'd like to delete. (If you have a lot of tags, you may need to search to find the tags you want.)
- Once you've selected one or more tags, the Delete link activates. Select it.
Select the tag(s) you'd like to delete and click the Delete link
The Delete tags modal opens. - Review the tags listed for deletion and make sure they're the tags you want to delete.
Point of no return
Once you delete a tag, all its assignments to articles and categories are also deleted. Those relationships cannot be recovered. Be sure you're deleting the correct tag(s)! - When you've confirmed these are the tags you want to delete, select Delete. The tag is deleted and all its assignments to articles and categories are removed.
