![]() This is what I did to create 2 more pages. Once you have a page set up, you can save time by creating a copy of it for a new page. Here is what the page looks like with the Page Property web part displayed on it (circled). In these 2 images, I’m setting the Category property on a page to Blue : To tag a page, click the Page details link on the top ribbon while editing it. This opens up the page’s property panel where the property you’ve added to the Site Pages library, Category in this case, can be set. Now that I’ve added the column (property) to the Site Pages library, I can tag all new site pages I want with a value for that page property. Although the technique to add columns to multiple content types in a library is slightly different than what I’m showing here, having this ability provides even more flexibility and power. Read my observations at the end where I talk about this feature also giving us the ability to add properties to multiple Site Page content types. My choice values are Blue, Green, and Orange. For this example, I select a Choice column type and provide the definition shown in the image. ![]() ![]() To demonstrate this, I’ll start by adding a new column called Category to the Site Pages library by clicking Add column on the row heading. Note: Throughout this post, I use the words tag and property interchangeably.Ī page property manifests itself as a column on a Site Page. My simple example will be tagging pages with one of 3 colors (Blue, Green, or Orange) and displaying them to the end-user categorized by color. I’m using this example to visually demonstrate the power of tagging.Īlthough this may not be a real-world example, the techniques used to build this are the same ones you would use to tag pages based on location, business function, target audience, etc. This post will demonstrate how to tag modern pages and display them to an end-user based on that tag. ![]() This new modern page tagging capability addresses each one of these limitations! In addition, you couldn’t view the property on the page’s content. However, this was not an easy thing to setup nor configure from an end-user perspective. The ability to tag modern pages was already possible by adding a custom property to a content type inheriting from Site Page. Today it was delivered to my tenant, and I couldn’t wait to dig in and try it out. The recent announcement from Microsoft surrounding the ability to tag SharePoint Online modern pages with page metadata is great news. ![]()
