Ever notice a story on your Neighborhood News Page that you’d like to remove or tag but struggled to find it in Tag Stories?  Well, struggle no longer. We have added a keyword search box to the top of the Tag Stories page. Enter any word or group of words into the box, click on Find, and we’ll search the headlines and the bodies of stories (either the first 2 lines or the entire story, depending on what the particular RSS Feed publishes) for that search term. Keep in mind that if you perform a search while looking at Active Stories, you won’t get results from My Stories and Inactive Stories and vice versa. You can only search the tab you’re on.
Here are a few ways to use the search feature:
In Active Stories, enter the headline of a story you want to remove to find it and suppress it.
Notice a story on your output that’s tagged to the wrong neighborhood? Search for its headline in Active Stories to find it and edit the neighborhood and place tags.
When you add a new place to our system while place tagging a story, search for that place as a keyword in Eligible Stories. Any other stories mentioning that place will be found and you can add the new place tag to them.
Want to make sure all the stories about a certain event or person have the right geotags? Search for those stories entering appropriate keywords and/or names.
Those are just some of the ways in which the new search feature can be useful. So, log in to Outside.in for Publishers, click on Tag Stories, and start searching and curating.
