Nice. You could set up one for each of the theme days.

There's an update you'll want to see. You don't want to email all those tags.

A very good solution for posts, Thaddeus!

This is a neat workaround. Thanks for taking the time to explain it.

I had thought of this but some of the notes I make, I just don't see it as a "post" but it does free me up from tagging. So perhaps I should rethink that idea. Thanks for bringing it up

Update:

Is you're going to use the post system, test it like a note and publish to web only with a link to your story to avoid triggering spam filters

Great idea. Just post and then restack the note. Probably a tidier way to do it.

That means posting possibly twice. Once on one’s normal schedule and then once on the day (I usually send the same post for multiple days)? I guess one could post and uncheck the send to email and app.

But it doesn't work for notes, right?

Nope, you’d be tagging them in the post not the Note.

I hadn't actually thought of that. Now that you've mentioned it, it makes perfect sense.

Would I post these names at the top of the post, or at the bottom?

This could make it where I don't have to post a note at all, except to let my note followers know about the post.

If it's a long list, I'd assume the bottom.

This is an excellent solution for regular group Posts, and it will save people a lot of time... 😎

Oh good. I was terrified I’d mansplained the obvious to my entire mailing list.

No, there's nothing to worry about there, you've done a great job. It's a very useful idea... 😎

I’m so confused, what’s the trick here? Copy paste?

It won't many anything to you if you're not one of the ones tagging loads of people in Notes for those weekly theme days.

Do you have a similar system for getting in-tagged? Because those things are destroying my notifications
