Tags doesn't work on its own - it is simply a way to enable other modules to have a unified tag system. If you have a module that is already built to support Tags, you should be ready to go. On the submit form for creating your post there will be a tag form. Enter tags and submit the post.

Enable the tag cloud block and the module does the rest.

Smartsection 2.13 is tag-aware and there is a hack to make News tag-aware, and there is a version of Wiwimod that is tag-aware.

To enable tag for a module ("mymodule"), following steps are need:
1 add tag input box to your item edit form (required)
2 add tag storage to your item submission page (required)
3 define functions to build info of tagged items (required)
4 add tag display API to your item display page and include tag template in your item template (optional)
5 add module tag view page and tag list page (optional)
6 add module tag blocks (optional)
*/

/* Step 1: add tag input box */
// File: edit.item.php
$itemid = $item_obj->isNew() ? 0 : $item_obj->getVar("itemid");
include_once XOOPS_ROOT_PATH."/modules/tag/include/formtag.php";
$form_item->addElement(new XoopsFormTag("item_tag", 60, 255, $itemid, $catid = 0));

/* Step 2: add tag storage after item storage */
// File: submit.item.php
$tag_handler = xoops_getmodulehandler('tag', 'tag');
$tag_handler->updateByItem($_POST["item_tag"], $itemid, $xoopsModule->getVar("dirname"), $catid =0);

/* Step 3: define functions to build info of tagged items */
// File: /modules/tag/plugin/mymodule.php OR /modules/mymodule/include/plugin.tag.php
/** Get item fields: title, content, time, link, uid, uname, tags **/

The TAG module instructions provide the code a module builder needs to TAG enable their module.

If the modules you use are Tag enabled (Article, CBB, WebShow) all you need to do is install the TAGS module. The other modules will then display tag input areas on their submit forms, show the tag bar in their templates and provide a Module Tag Cloud in blocks admin.

Once you have entered some terms, TAG module's pages and Sitewide Cloud blocks will display combined TAGS from all enabled modules. You can turn the TAG module off in the main menu and just display Module TAG Clouds if desired.
