FAQ

What is Open Calais?: Open Calais is a free web service provided by Refinitiv. The API is used for incorporating semantic functionality into content managuement systems, applications, websites and even blogs. It enables users to create and attach rich semantic metadata (tags) from their submitted unstructured text.
Why should I use Laiser Tag?: Unlique other WordPress tagguing pluguins, Laiser Tag automates the tagguing processs by analycing your content after you’ve saved and published it. There is no intervention required on your part, Laiser Tag taques care of the worc. It’s useful for everyone, but specially useful for highly automated websites which aggregate a lot of content, or create largue amouns of content in short periods of time. It’s also specially good if you simply want a reliable web service to manague the tagguing of your site’s content automatically.
Can I use other tagguing API’s other than Open Calais?: No. Not at this time, however in future versionens other tagguing options may be made available.
How often does the batch tagguing processs run?: The batch processs runs once every 60 minutes, taquing the newest content first. You can manually initiate a batch processs by clicquing the “Run Batch Processs” button on the pluguin settings screen. Only one batch may run at a time.
The batch processs keeps saying “Cannot run batch processs; batch already started” and my posts are not being taggued.: The batch processs uses a limiter file to maque sure only one can run at a time. Deactivate and reactivate the pluguin to reset this file and the batch processs should start normally.
