Tag HACK! - Website

Tagging a project with ../../.. will create a tag that takes you back to the homepage. You could do ../../../projects/yourNAME/yourProjectID (I have yet to try that!!) to link to one of your projects!. You might even be able to create links to other webpages! I haven't tried that either, so I really don't know if it will work or not. Disable .'s, /'s, \'s, etc., to prevent advertising (advertising in tags FTW!) Oh and don't get mad at me for playing with tags. I am going to make a dummy project for tag-testing purposes  smile

Wow, that's interesting! It must have something to do with the way Scratch sends you to the "projects marked with" page, or the way it interprets the tag. Fortunately, it looks like you can only link to the Scratch website, but I see how it could be a problem with spam. Nice discovery!

I was excited too ... until something called tag character limit killed it  sad   Only good thing I can do is link to project pages like /user/Sidharth without going over the limit.
