Wish we could re-organize tags in our listings by dragging the tag like we can with the variation options

I thought the order of the tags didn't matter. I know the categories matter, but I didn't think the 13 regular tags held any weight.

since tag order doesn't matter i don't think we need to be able to reorder them.

I have also read that tag order does not make a difference. :)

I wasn't aware until recently that the order the tags are listed is irrelevant. So when I needed to add a new tag would delete them all and re-enter in the order I thought was relevant. Silly girl!!!!! Maybe some folks aren't aware, so I'm glad the topic has reemerged!

I've thought of that too-that would be great!
Would save a lot of time!

Have read both - order is relevant and order it not relevant. Wish admin could step in and confirm which is true at this point.

Definitely agree that tags should be easier to maneuver. It's on my wish list.

I think it gets confusing because some sellers refer to the first three tags, which are your categories, as "tags". Those are important.

I, too, have heard it both ways!

Which way is correct? LOL

Either way, I would still like to be able to rearrange without having to delete all and start over.
