For tagging entities in photos, the procedure slightly differs, as we\u2019ll explain below.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Add_a_Tag_in_a_Post_or_Comment\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_2\">Add a Tag in a Post or Comment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>To start tagging someone in your post or comment, first, click the editable area in your post or comment so you can type text.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-790926\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/1-select-post-comment.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Select a post or comment.\" width=\"650\" height=\"485\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Place the cursor where you want to mention an entity. Then type the <code>@<\/code> sign followed by the name of the entity to tag.

Then pick the appropriate item from the menu that opens.<\/p>\n<p>Once tagging is done, go ahead and publish your post, comment, or photo like you normally would.
