Adding Tags to Quiz Answers

Attaching tags to your quiz answer options is straightforward once you know where to find the tag field. This guide walks you through the exact steps and covers best practices for naming your tags consistently.

Where to Find the Tag Field

Tags are configured at the individual answer level — not at the question level. To access the tag field for an answer:

1. Open your quiz in the Quizify editor

2. Navigate to the question that contains the answer you want to tag

3. Click on the answer option to expand its settings — the answer settings panel will appear

4. Locate the Tags field within the answer settings panel

The Tags field is where you type and manage the tags for that specific answer option.

How to Enter a Tag

To add a tag to an answer:

1. Click inside the Tags field for the answer you want to tag

2. Type your tag text (for example: oily-skin)

3. Press Enter or type a comma to confirm the tag

The tag will appear as a small chip or pill inside the Tags field, indicating it has been saved as a tag for that answer. You can then type another tag and press Enter again to add more.

Adding Multiple Tags to a Single Answer

One answer can have as many tags as you need. To add multiple tags:

1. Enter the first tag and press Enter or comma to confirm it

2. Type the next tag and press Enter or comma to confirm it

3. Repeat until you have added all the tags you need for that answer

Each confirmed tag appears as a separate chip in the field. You can remove any individual tag by clicking the × next to it.

Tag Naming Best Practices

How you name your tags matters — especially when those tags sync to external platforms like Mailchimp or Klaviyo. Following a consistent naming convention from the start saves time later and prevents confusion.

Use lowercase letters. Some integrations are case-sensitive, meaning Oily-Skin and oily-skin could be treated as two different values. Using lowercase consistently avoids this problem.

Use hyphens instead of spaces. Tags with spaces can behave unpredictably in some platforms. Use hyphens to separate words: oily-skin rather than oily skin.

Keep tags short and descriptive. Tags should be readable at a glance and clearly describe the attribute they represent. budget-conscious is better than b-c or the-customer-is-budget-conscious.

Use a consistent prefix if helpful. If your quiz covers multiple topics, consider prefixing tags with a category identifier to keep them organised in your email platform. For example: skin-oily, skin-dry, hair-fine, hair-thick. This is especially useful if you run multiple quizzes and want to keep tag sets separate.

Think about how the tag will look in your email platform. Before naming a tag, consider how it will appear in Mailchimp, Klaviyo, or wherever you plan to use it. If your email platform displays tags to you in a list, names that are clear and consistent will be much easier to work with.

Avoid special characters. Stick to letters, numbers, and hyphens. Avoid symbols like @, #, %, or brackets, as these can cause issues in some integration payloads.

How Tags Are Saved

Tags are saved with the answer when you save the question. There is no separate save step for tags — they are included as part of the answer's settings when you click Save on the question editor.

Once saved, tags take effect immediately on your published quiz. Any customer who selects that answer after the save will have the tag recorded in their submission.

You Do Not Need to Create Tags in Advance

Unlike some systems where you need to create tags in a central list before using them, Quizify lets you type tags freely in the answer field. There is no tag library to manage — you simply type the tag you want and press Enter. The tag is created on the spot and attached to that answer.

This means you can add new tags at any time simply by editing an answer option and typing a new tag in the field.
