How to Use a Tag Aware Widget

When you are subscribing to a widget, a tag icon is displayed next to any field that is Tag Aware:

When you click the tag icon, you see this:

This is what the options do:

If you check just ‘Enable Tag-Awareness’



This allows you to use the <a rel="wbx-keywords> tag in your blog posts.  For example, you
might make a tag to the word "tech" by blogging this:

<a rel="wbx-keywords" title="tech" />

This sends the keyword "tech" to any field of any widget to which you just
checked "Enable Tag-Awareness".  You can see an example in a blog post
here.

If you additionally click ‘Support "rel" tags’:



Technorati and other tagging sites use the rel-tag
specification to tag content in a blog.  We let these industry standard tags control widgets, too. 
For example, you can tag the word "tech" by blogging this:

I like <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/tech" rel="tag">Technology</a>.

This sends the keyword "tech" to any field of any widget to which you checked ‘Support "rel" tags’.

If you additionally click ‘Named tag’:



This lets you send information to a specific parameter of a specific widget:

<a rel="wbx-keywords" name="srchTrms" title="tech" />

This will send the keyword "tech" to any widget that has a configuration parameter with a named tag "srchTrms".
