When I began this blog, WordPress didn’t have tags, so I ended up “tagging” each post in categories, thereby ending up with a cumbersome list of 180 of them. Having woken up long before the day was born, I thought I’d put the time to good use this morning and take advantage of the fact that WordPress does now have tags. I’d delete all the superfluous categories and change them into tags. It was laborious work, because each of 96 posts had to be individually decategorised and retagged.

I had done 80 of these fiddly little exercises, when I noticed for the first time an interesting button, saying: “Category to tag converter”. It’s a relatively new facility. I wish I’d noticed it earlier.
