We are new to this forum and were wondering what the small price tag on the right hand side of the topic box means on our Introduction Post?
Thanks, Nancy and Bill

Nancy and Bill,
Fancy that!! I asked that same question here a while back. Here is a link to the answers that I got. That "tag" deals with putting a link in the same area as the thread title.
Courtesy of the friendly folks here at Howard and Linda's.
Thanks for the reply. I checked the link and read each entry. Still am not sure how the tag got there and what if anything I should do. For now, I will just do nothing unless there is something that I am doing incorrectly. If that is the case and someone will advise, I will try to fix it.
Thanks, Nancy

I would suggest asking this in the Ask Howard area and Howard can answer himself.

Hi Nancy & Bill,
Those are "tags" rather than "price tags".
Each person that starts a topic can click on the "tag" and enter certain keywords related to that topic.
Once a "tag" is out there, then anyone can click on a particular "tag" and all topics that have been "tagged" with that keyword will come up.
For example, a couple of people have tagged topics with "Fifth Wheel". If you click on a "Fifth Wheel" tag, all the topics that have been tagged with that keyword show up. It's an easy way to search for topics if the tag feature is used properly and consistently.
So far, tagging hasn't been of much use in this forum because we haven't really promoted the feature and very few topics have been tagged. It works best if everyone uses it AND they create relevant, useful tags.
Only a few folks that came to this Forum knowing what "tags" could do for them have used them.
If anyone is interested and has a lot of time on their hands, we could authorize them as a moderator to go through the topics and add good tags. That would certainly enhance the ability to search through the Forum. But it would take hours upon hours.
Anyway, now you know.
