| Change to tags on the video page | ytKeane | 8/16/12 10:29 AM | Hi all, You may have noticed a change with tags on the video page when you're watching a video. Tags no longer appear on this page - this isn't a bug, but a change that went out this week. Having them on the watch page, in some cases, gave users an |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | Steve888OZ | 8/17/12 4:18 AM | I respectfully disagree Keane, I think seeing the tags used on successful videos was a good learning tool for Partners. I can't see how copying tags could be seen as abuse but rather a way of learning. Would you hide the Title because other users wer |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | rit1 | 8/17/12 8:35 AM | @keane If we use comma ( , ) in tags, keywords will not save and it will disappear.watch page edit help us to remove comma from tags. And if we use same tag eg- (the) it shows one (the) in watch page so it help us to change into (The |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | WTFIDK | 8/17/12 11:57 AM | actually not having the tags there is not a bad thing, less stuff on the page i guess. |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | ytKeane | 8/17/12 12:04 PM | @rit1 Yes, we're aware of that issue and I've let the developers know to investigate it. Thanks for mentioning it, though! |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | ytKeane | 8/17/12 12:10 PM | @Steve Thanks for your feedback. The advantages for uploaders are that your tags will be prevented from being exploited by others. Tags shouldn't be treated differently if you put breaks between them when you write them in. Just try saving it one way |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | anordinaryamerican1 | 8/18/12 10:07 PM | @Steve I so agree. There is more here than meets the eye. YT disabled this feature because it allowed the small guy to put his videos out there on an even level with the "pros". YT does not want their site being used as communication between av |

| Re: Change to tags on the video page | GodlessManitoban | 8/19/12 2:23 PM | Tags being hidden on the watch page in video statistics did nothing. On any web browser right click beside the video and click "View Page Source" or "View Source" and tada you'll see the video tags. So if the goal was to stop these "reply" "girls" |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | pbnjamz | 8/20/12 2:56 PM | By removing the tags from being visible, YouTube prevents entities with trademarks and copyrights from seeing how others may be abusing their terms, whether malicious or for the sole purpose of driving traffic. For instance, if I used the tag 'Pepsi' |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | ANorthernSoul | 8/21/12 5:10 AM | brilliant idea, stops those who create from being copied from those that abuse. well done Youtube ;) |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | JohnDanzJr | 8/21/12 2:21 PM | You guys just made it easier for your top whores to abuse the system by loading their tags with unrelated bullshit. Congratulations, keep up the mediocre work. |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | GodlessManitoban | 8/21/12 6:18 PM | Not so hidden after all :( |

| Re: Change to tags on the video page | TrueShawnBW | 8/22/12 3:32 PM | Instead of continuing to make changes, why not FIX STUFF FIRST? https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/youtube/uploading-and-managing-videos/ot7IYRDvNSs It will also be really helpful to actually get some responses on these problem |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | JohnDanzJr | 8/22/12 4:08 PM | How about you help us figure out why our uploads are taking 300 damn minutes and monetization has been stuck on "under review" for days? I've been waiting a month for one of you top partner coddling YouTube numbskulls to answer. |

| Re: Change to tags on the video page | MikeOShay | 8/27/12 12:51 AM | Aw, a lot of my favourite producers would put extra jokes into the tags of their videos, and it was something my viewers looked forwards to in mine. It was something for those of us who don't care about optimizing search results to put in as extra. N |

| Re: Change to tags on the video page | KoyasuNoBara | 9/5/12 11:22 AM | Question! Why not make it so displaying tags publicly can be left up to the person who posts the video? You could make the default option be to NOT display them so that your original intent remains, but the people who want to display them can. I've b |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | paullyb | 9/6/12 10:20 AM | We use the gdata API to retrieve information on a specific playlist and then group videos by tag. It appears that tags are no longer appearing in the feed, which is causing us issues. Is there a way to retrieve the tags too? Here is the type of URL |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | bonsaipark | 3/29/13 3:23 PM | Something stinks here. Removing easy access to the keywords/tags seems to be conveniently hiding the fact that ninety perecent of the results YouTube returns to a query have nothing to do with the user's query. There used to be some strange results, |
| Re: Change to tags on the video page | bonsaipark | 3/29/13 3:29 PM | For more evidence, sort your search results by upload date... "1 day ago", "2 days ago"... may have (let's say, as an example) about 10 hits (depending on your actual search terms). Uploads found within the past 24 hours, though, might include 50 or |
