Is there a type to use for "tags"?

[sitefinitysteve]

I have a fix set of tags to use, is there a widget type I can point at that JSON field that would give me some sort of multi-select?

I need to store it like this
"tags": ["Sitefinity", "JavaScript", "Tutorial"],

But right now it's just a textarea int he UI, I dont want to add new tags here, I'd just prefer to define the list somwhere

The best way to handle tags is the Relation widget.

• Create a new collection called tags with some string fields: slug, label (and perhaps description)
• Add some tags there
• Add a relation field to another collection (blog posts, for example) and refer to it:

- name: tags
  label: Tags
  widget: relation
  collection: tags
  value_field: slug
  search_fields: [slug, label]
  display_fields: [label]
  multiple: true

No way to do it without it being it's own collection? It's a pretty static list of 7 items and like 150 existing JSON posts with the string array of tags, id rather not have to edit those retroactively?

If you don’t want to have a separate collection, the Select widget should work 🙂
