Autotagger

” Automatically add tags to posts which contain words that match words in a ‘tag list’ “

Use a predefined tag list to autotag a post (without tags) while saving/publishing.
(optional) Hook into Autotagger via the action ‘tag_posts’ and use the predefined tag list to tag all posts (without tags) in the blog’s database. This is useful to set up on a schedule if posts are regularly made without tags (eg. a script that adds posts directly to the database bypassing the WordPress API). You could also use this if you added more tags to your tag list and you wanted to re-tag all old posts (after deleting current tags).

Download: Autotagger 1.0 ( Tested up to WordPress version 2.5.1 )

Unzip ‘autotagger.1.0.zip’ and upload the ‘autotagger’ folder to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory.
Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.

Go to the ‘Settings’ menu and click on ‘Autotagger’, and add your desired tag list.
