Loading tag lists
You can load a list of community members into your current tag list, from a tag list previously created and stored in SynWeb.
Also, see Storing tag lists.
Use the Load Tag Lists window to:
- list all public lists or just your own saved lists
- clear all items from the current list or add this list to the current tag list
- edit the selected list's name, expiry and whether or not it is public
- delete the selected list
- load the selected list.
From Synergetic, you can also load a list of community members from:
- An Excel spreadsheet. See Loading community members into a tag list from an Excel spreadsheet in the Synergetic Introduction manual.
- A text file. See Loading community members into a tag list from a file in the Synergetic Introduction manual.
To load an existing tag list into the current tag list:
- Select Tags from the SynWeb main menu.
The Tag List window is displayed. - Click .
The Load Tag Lists window is displayed with:
• your private tag lists
• public tag lists created by you. - Select Include all public lists, if required.
This displays all available public lists as well. - Select Clear tagged items first, if you are overwriting rather than appending to your current tag list.
- Select the required tag list in the grid.
- Click .
The stored tag list is copied to your current tag list and the count on the Tags menu option is updated.

These can be used by all staff members, rather than each staff member having to create a new list each to serve the same purpose.

Note: If you have created any public lists yourself these are displayed even if the Include all public lists field is cleared. |
Clear tagged items first | Select this field to clear the current tag list before you load new community members.
