Pagefile::tags() method

Get or set the "tags" property, when in use.

Example

$file = $page->files->first();
$tags = $file->tags(); // Get tags string
$tags = $file->tags(true); // Get tags array
$file->tags("foo bar baz"); // Set tags to be these 3 tags
$tags->tags(["foo", "bar", "baz"]); // Same as above, using array

Usage

// basic usage
$string = $pagefile->tags();

// usage with all arguments
$string = $pagefile->tags($value = null);

Arguments

NameType(s)Description
value (optional)bool, string, array

Specify one of the following:

  • Omit to simply return the tags as a string.
  • Boolean true if you want to return tags as an array (rather than string).
  • Boolean false to return tags as an array, with lowercase enforced.
  • String or array if you are setting the tags.

Return value

string array

Returns the current tags as a string or an array. When an array is returned, it is an associative array where the key and value are both the tag (keys are always lowercase).
