Tags
Organize episodes with color-coded tags for filtering and categorization.
Tags provide a flexible way to categorize and filter episodes across your shows. Use them to track content themes, production status, priority levels, or any organizational scheme that fits your workflow.
Creating Tags
From Settings
- Navigate to Settings > Tags
- Click New Tag
- Enter the tag name
- Choose a color
- Click Create
Inline Creation
You can also create tags on the fly while editing an episode:
- Open an episode's detail view
- Click the Tags field
- Type a new tag name
- Click Create "[tag name]" in the dropdown
- The tag is created and applied immediately
Tag Properties
Each tag has:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The display label (e.g., "Urgent", "Interview", "Sponsored") |
| Color | A color for visual identification on the Kanban board and lists |
Available Colors
Tags can be assigned one of the following colors:
- Red
- Orange
- Yellow
- Green
- Blue
- Purple
- Pink
- Gray
Colors help you create visual groupings — for example, all content-type tags in blue, all priority tags in red/orange/yellow.

Filtering Episodes by Tags
Tags become powerful when used for filtering:

The calendar view also supports tag filtering, letting you see only tagged episodes on specific dates.

Managing Tags
Editing Tags
- Go to Settings > Tags
- Click a tag to edit
- Change the name or color
- Changes apply everywhere the tag is used
Deleting Tags
- Go to Settings > Tags
- Click the delete icon on a tag
- Confirm deletion
Deleting a tag removes it from all episodes. This cannot be undone.
Tag Organization
Tags are scoped to your organization — all shows and team members share the same tag set. This ensures consistency across your production pipeline.
Tags on the Kanban Board
Tags appear as small colored badges on episode cards:
- Up to 3 tags are shown directly on the card
- Additional tags are shown as a "+N" indicator
- Tag colors provide quick visual scanning across columns
- Combined with swimlanes, tags offer powerful episode grouping
Tips
- Keep tag names short — They need to fit on small badges (2-3 words max)
- Use consistent naming — Agree on tag conventions with your team
- Don't over-tag — 3-5 tags per episode is usually sufficient
- Use colors meaningfully — Red for urgent, green for good-to-go, etc.
- Review tags periodically — Remove unused tags to keep the list manageable
