## Description

With a few simple steps you can transform your tags into a manageable bunch of groups.
No more clicking on each tag for every post or pasting in a long string of tags.

Now, with Tag Grouping, you can enable a checkbox for each group of tags you wish
to associate with a post. When you save that post, the tags are added as if you 
were using the normal WordPress interface. As an added bonus, if you decide to alter
a group of tags later and add more tags, all your posts with that group will receive
the updated tag list.

Creation of groups just got simpler with version 1.1. Now you can paste in your 
list of tags during the creation process and the plugin will automatically take 
care of splitting
 them up, comparing them to the existing tags, adding new ones
to your database and adding all of them to your group.

In a nutshell:

 * Create groups of tags quickly and easily that can be used on any post.
 * Retroactively add tags to multiple posts when updating an existing group that
   is contained by the posts.
