I want to delete some of the tags that are entered in the system.



Since there is no way to do that in Control Panel, and there is not a valid plugin that can do this (know that from my previous question).



The only way to delete tags is in the database. So I found this comment. I think this is for CraftCMS 2, but is it still the same and for CraftCMS 3?

  • Just as a comment, I find that using categories instead of tags gives you much more control, especially if this is a site you are opening up to an end client.

  • I use categories in one project before. But since there is not need for grouping filters in this one, I decide to use tags. I was not aware that there is`t tag management system build in CraftCMS since I need it.

    Yes the same still applies. You can either delete it via DB directly in your %elements column or you can just run



    PHP



    Craft::$app->getElements()->deleteElementById(x)


    Twig



    % do craft.app.getElements().deleteElementById(x) %
