Added <code>tags</code> to each post using the year and month to add filtering and sorting capability to the list. <a href="https://scarcs.ca/_detail/blog/2019-07-05/tags.png?id=blog%3A2019-07-05%3Aa_few_changes_to_the_website" class="media" title="blog:2019-07-05:tags.png"><img src="https://scarcs.ca/_media/blog/2019-07-05/tags.png" class="mediacenter" loading="lazy" alt="" /></a> <br/>
For the tags to work, the month must be formatted as the first three letters: <code>Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec</code>
</div></li>
<li class="level1"><div class="li">
Any news item with the tag “<code>pin</code>” will also appear at the top of the side bar. This should be used sparingly for a few days / weeks for important items we want to keep at the top. For example: <a href="https://scarcs.ca/_detail/blog/2019-07-05/pinned.png?id=blog%3A2019-07-05%3Aa_few_changes_to_the_website" class="media" title="blog:2019-07-05:pinned.png"><img src="https://scarcs.ca/_media/blog/2019-07-05/pinned.png" class="mediacenter" loading="lazy" alt="" /></a>
