Taxonomy: an established way to tag content#146

The current system to tag content is using the tags-field. While this works in some use cases, you quickly can run into hard issues later on. E.g.:

  • CRUD in a centralized view or UI for terms
  • make sure your terms are applied consistently to the content in all multilingual versions (e.g. with translate: false, but outputs the translated term in the template)
  • hierarchical terms
  • attach fields to terms

I’ve braindumped more about this here: https://www.notion.so/mnfrm/Kirby-taxonomy-a60c2446f9c1402e8ac50cc0c9051694

Since you have already thought a lot about this: what are the pro/cons of having this as a plugin vs. in the core?

The current structure field is quite simple (intentionally?), it could be useful to more people if such taxonomy features were available. Of course using/making a plugin is possible too.

A small addition, would this also help to manage the tags you entered, for example to remove typos? I’m looking for a way to do this.
