Variable: org-tag-alist

org-tag-alist is a customizable variable defined in org.el.gz.

Value

nil

Documentation

Default tags available in Org files.

The value of this variable is an alist. Associations either:

  (TAG)
  (TAG . SELECT)
  (SPECIAL)

where TAG is a tag as a string, SELECT is character, used to select that tag through the fast tag selection interface, and SPECIAL is one of the following keywords: :startgroup,
:startgrouptag, :grouptags, :endgroup, :endgrouptag or
:newline. These keywords are used to define a hierarchy of
tags. See manual for details.

When this variable is nil, Org mode bases tag input on what is already in the buffer. The value can be overridden locally by using a TAGS keyword, e.g.,

  #+TAGS: tag1 tag2

See also org-tag-persistent-alist to sidestep this behavior.
