Questions created in a category need an Engine version tag and a tag relating to the topic that has a relationship with the category that you are attempting to post in. However, you need to select the **topic relationship tag first and then the Engine version tag** If you’re still experiencing issues, a screenshot/video would be helpful for us to reproduce the problem you are facing.

I was stumped on this too. The confusion for me stems from the fact that the error feedback is located on the title implying that you need to put the version tag in the title, but the actual version tag to be applied is on that spot on the bottom-right where you tag a thread as a ‘question’ ‘bug-report’ etc. ---

On my profile: 1. I browse to the forums in Firefox. 2. I click “New Topic”, “New Question” 3. I type a title. 4. I type a category “c++” and click whatever shows up. 5. I type some content. 6. to the right I see “question” and the + sign. I click it and type “4-26”. 7. It says “no matches found” Which results in the error message that I should include a tag, while I am never able to post my question. ---

With the forum reorganization, many categories were merged. Though due to the vast amount of use cases and relationships with the categories, it was important we relied more on tags, especially when the AnswerHub migration happened. The category represents the overarching topic, whereas the tags allow users to be more granular with what their topic relates to. This way also reduces the number of categories and subcategories on the forums. Each category has a tag group assigned to it, which contains x amount of tags relating to the overarching category. For example, the image below is the tag group set to Programming and Scripting, and the subcategories nested there; Blueprint, AI, C++, UI, Multiplayer & Networking. ![image](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/9/f/9/9f92a4be828c41efdcca1f4ce2aec9b7b2d42cc9.jpeg) Due to how the forum currently operates, there is a clash with the tags. Questions require an Engine version tag, and categories require a tag from their respective tag group- but it currently only prompts for an Engine version tag. We’re exploring how to do this better from a design perspective to make this more intuitive. One idea is that there are two tag bars, one of which is strictly for the Engine version throughout the forum and the other relating to user-input tags/tags required in a given category. I hope this helps make sense of the way it currently operates! Once we’ve done some further tag organization, we plan to create an FAQ of sorts that will outline the tags in a given category tag group 🙂 ---

Thank you for the explanation. If I understand this correctly the tags are used like “keywords” to quickly describe what content a post is about within its selected category. Regardless of how the backend works, the frontend should be as simple as possible. Users of The way I see it, users of the forum could be presented with the following three steps to set up categorization requirements: 1. Select an engine version. 2. Select a category. 3. Choose content keywords (tags). I would absolutely avoid making things confusing by adding bars to a single panel or by presenting the user with many options to choose from at once like it does now, which is bad UX. ---

I saw someone say plus sign at bottom right, and there isn’t a plus sign on the bottom right. I am slightly visually impaired, so this is the worst forum I have ever been on. I have asked questions here before i thought. My question has nothing to do with any version number, it is why do Marketplace Items have ‘Add to Project’, not ‘Download to my hard drive or library?’ I don’t get purchasing something for 1 project. Sounds like a bad way to download content. Your forum keeps me from asking any questions. As for how to make it better? YouTube has very easy tags. Create a text box with a label: Tags. Then when someone types in text, and hits a comma, it becomes a tag. You guys can program 3D environments, I couldn’t do this if my life depended on it, but tags I can do. You need to hire less smart people for your forums, and leave the smart people to the 3D content. And while I am ranting, why do you want to load thousands of shaders every time I start the app, if I am only going to use none, seems like just a way to make GPU’s smoke.
