## Description

This plugin allows your readers (either registered users or all) to add tags to 
your posts. Tags can be held for approval or displayed immediately. An RSS feed 
for monitoring new tags is provided. Javascript autocompletion is available to help
improve tagging consistency.

## Installation

 1. Unzip `wp_folksonomy.zip`.
 2. Upload `wp_folksonomy.php` to `wp-content/plugins`.
 3. Activate in the Plugins menu.
 4. Unfortunately there is not an easy way for the plugin to add the tag submission
    form to your theme, so you’ll need to open up the .php file for your theme’s single
    posts (probably `single.php` or maybe `index.php`) and find the tag section (look
    for something like: `<?php the_tags('some','options');?>`). After that insert the
    following code: `<?php if(function_exists('wp_folksonomy_add_form')) wp_folksonomy_add_form();?
    >`

## FAQ

  Won’t this get spammed?

The truthful answer is I’m not completely sure. I guess there’s not much benefit
to spammers since tagging doesn’t provide a link. My blog (only a small fry) has
had it up about a year and hasn’t had a problem. However if you do have a problem,
you can easily delete all tags from a given IP address. If you have a serious problem,
please let me know and I’ll work in some sort of blacklist or (annoying) captcha
or something. Also you can delete all tags from a given IP and limit users to X 
tags per Y seconds.
