hide tags, tag siblings
within the tag column when adding tags such as "apple", "orange", is there a function that automatically turns it to another tag such as "fruit"? There seems to only be a metadata of this sort only for automatic metadata grabbing.
Also is there a way to hide certain tags but keep them still there in case you want to show them again? |

There are no such things that apply constantly. There is a tag mapper you can apply in bulk to all books however. Add it to your toolbar via Preferences->Toolbars

"Animal, apple, Cat, cog, color, Dog, machine, Orange" "apple, Cat, wine, color, Dog, water, Orange" "Blue: Dark(#6879cc), Cat, color, Dog, RPM, size, Weight:heavy" With these strings is there somehow a way which you would you bulk capture the tags "Orange", "Cat", "Water", Weight:heavy", "color" all in one go?

First way, and what I would do, is "mark" the tags using Manage Tags then move them using bulk S&R. By "mark" I mean add a prefix to the tags you want to move, for example !!!. Then using S&R search source field "tags" for "^!!!(.*)$" (no quotes) with a replacement of \1, destination field the new column. Next do a second pass to delete the tags from the tags column. Same source field, same search pattern, "replace with" and "destination field" are empty. I like this approach because I can in one scan through the tags manually choose the ones to move. Second way, OK if there aren't too many of them, is to use regex alternation. Search tags for "^(Orange|Cat|Water|Weight:heavy|color)$" , replacement \1, destination field the new column. Next do a second pass to delete the tags from the tags column. Same source field, same search pattern, "replace with" and "destination field" are empty. Note that S&R processes multiple-item fields such as tags item by item, not as a single line. The order of the items is not important. When using a destination field different from the source, S&R copies the value, which is why you need two passes. |

The "Tag mapper" only applies to the inbuild "Tags" column right? |

Note that you can delete tags using Manage Tags. If you used the prefix then filter by that prefix, select all the taqs, then press the delete button. Quote:

the first method is for first marking the tags you want to delete from the tags column but then moving those marked tags+other non-marked tags to the cutom column? from what I've tested:
marked !!! on the tags I want to keep in the Tags column "Animal, apple, Cat, cog, color, Dog, machine, Orange" "!!!Cat, !!!Orange, Animal, apple, !!!cog, color, Dog, machine" source: tags search for:^!!!(.*)$ replace with:\1 destination: customtags result: "Animal, apple, Cat, cog, color, Dog, machine, Orange" It basically moves all the tags from Tags to Custom column but without the !!! prefix then you delete the marked tags from the Tags column? I am left with the tags I haven't marked in the primary Tags column, but those tags aren't what I want to keep unless I am doing something wrong. |
