 [[!tag type/tags type/link]]
 
-This plugin allows tagging pages. List tags as follows:
+This plugin provides the [[ikiwiki/directive/tag]] and 
+[[ikiwiki/directive/taglink]] [[directives|ikiwiki/directive]].
+These directives allow tagging pages.
 
-	\[[!tag tech life linux]]
+It also provides the `tagged()` [[ikiwiki/PageSpec]], which can be used to
+match pages that are tagged with a specific tag.
 
-The tags work the same as if you had put a (hidden) [[ikiwiki/WikiLink]] on
-the page for each tag, so you can use a [[ikiwiki/PageSpec]] match all
-pages that are tagged with a given tag, for example. The tags will also
-show up on blog entries and at the bottom of the tagged pages, as well as
-in RSS and Atom feeds.
+The `tagbase` setting can be used to make tags default to being put in a
+particular subdirectory.
 
-If you want a visible [[ikiwiki/WikiLink]] along with the tag, use taglink
-instead:
-
-	\[[!taglink foo]]
-	\[[!taglink tagged_as_foo|foo]]
-
-This plugin has a configuration option. Set --tagbase=tags and links to tags
-will be located under the specified base page. If ikiwiki is configured
-this way, then the example above actually tags the page with the tags
-tags/tech, tags/life, and tags/linux. This is a useful way to avoid
-having to write the full path to tags, if you want to keep them grouped
-together out of the way.
+The `tag_autocreate` setting can be used to control whether new tag pages
+are created as needed. It defaults to being done only if a `tagbase` is
+set.
