User Sync & Tag Management

Role-Based Tagging System

< 1 min read Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Role-based tagging automatically applies GHL tags to users based on their WordPress user role. As roles change, tags are applied or removed accordingly.

How to configure it

  1. Go to Syncly > Settings > Role Tags.
  2. For each WordPress role, select the GHL tags to apply.
  3. Configure options per role: Auto-apply (apply immediately on role assignment) and Remove on role change (remove when the user’s role changes away).
  4. Save.

Bulk tag operations

From the Role Tags page, apply or remove a role’s tags for all existing users in that role at once via an AJAX button. Useful for backfilling tags when you first configure role tags.

Registration tags

Default tags applied to every new contact at registration (regardless of role) are configured under Settings > Sync Options > Default tags on registration.

PHP helper functions
