wp_create_tag() WordPress Function

The wp_create_tag() function allows you to create a new tag within Wordpress. This function takes two parameters: the name of the tag, and the slug for the tag. The name of the tag is the name that will be displayed for the tag, while the slug is the URL-friendly version of the name.
