This tool scans the body copy and automatically generates links on the words with their respective tag pages. Once auto-linked, the Editor can modify or delete the links as he/she sees fit afterward.

In 2020, Vogue and GQ Japan brands implemented the first version of auto-linking to automate the linking tag pages' process to make it more efficient.

Auto-linking tags aim to create more entryways for search engine algorithms to recognize what the content is about and appear at the top of search rankings so readers can find it easily.

CREATE

To create auto-linked tags, Editors only need to position them at the bottom of the ‘Body’ and click on the ‘Auto generated tags’ button. The tool immediately scans and links the available tags in the content

EDIT

You cannot currently modify more than one tag at a time, these need to be modified one by one.

If you need to roll back after clicking the ‘Auto generated links’ button, just press Control + Z or Command + Z depending on your operating system to undo the action and remove all auto-generated tags.

If you just want to change or eliminate one tag, you can do it manually and independently by standing on the label and using the toolbox.
