Tagging helps you find the information you need by grouping pages from different modules or filtering index pages, making the navigation in Labguru faster and easier.

Labguru index pages are likely to be filled with overwhelming information that makes it hard to see all in one single page. Tagging items makes the search easier and organize in one place all items needed for an specific aspect of your research.

Few examples: 

In ELN, collection and stocks index pages - Tags appear at the top of the page under the title: 

In papers, attachments and image bank - Tags appear in the top right corner of the page:

Different types of pages can have meaningful scientific connection.
​Link them together and jump from one page to another in one click.

But to be even more efficient, group them together in one list using the same tag. Tagging pages will help you categorize your data, grouping it together, and enabling you to view all in one place.

To view all the tags: Go to the menu under your Lab's name >Select 'Tags' > the Tags index page opens to see all the tags ordered alphabetically.

You can also merge tags to eliminate duplicates, just choose 2 tags and you will see a merge option.

1. Each page and item has a Tag window on the right-hand side or the top of the page. You can see existing tags and add new ones.

2. If it is a new tag - type its name in > click enter
​3. If the tag you want to use already exists: Type 2-3 letters so the system will suggest a list of existing tags to choose from.
​4. Click 'Save'.

To un-tag a page just delete the tag from the page using the X next to the tag name.

You can also delete the tag entirely from the account which will also remove it from all the associated pages.
