Appearance → Customize → Single Post → Show tags. On by default.
What it prints
A row under the article content, labelled Tags:, with each tag linking to its archive. Tags are printed in WordPress’s own order.
It is suppressed automatically when there is nothing to print:
- the post has no tags, or
- the post type does not support tags at all — a page, or a custom type registered without
post_tag.
So you can leave the switch on for a site that tags some posts and not others; the untagged ones simply get nothing.
Tags versus categories
Stoat prints them in different places for a reason:
| Categories | above the headline or in the byline row | what section this belongs to |
| Tags | under the article | what this is about |
A reader arrives through the category and leaves through a tag. That is the shape worth keeping: a handful of categories that describe your sections, and as many tags as the subject matter needs.
Tag archives
Each tag links to /tag/<slug>/, which is drawn by the same listing template as everything else, so all the Archive settings apply — including a featured first post, which a tag can turn on for itself.
A tag’s description (set on its edit screen) is printed under the archive title. Worth filling in for the tags people actually land on from a search engine.
Hiding tags on one post
There is no per-post switch. Remove the tags from the post, or hide the block with Additional CSS using the post’s own body class:
.postid-123 .entry-tags { display: none; }
