Wordpress meta tag description

votes

I need to attach one description line to each meta tag entered into WP. For example:

tags: dog, cat, cow, attached to some post

would become:

dog - spoiled domestic animal
cat - doesn't care about me
cow - has brown spots

The purpose is to display the description line below the searched tag. I.e.: www.wordpressite.com/tag/dog/

Would display:

TAG
TAG DESCRIPTION
RESULTS

I honestly have no idea where to start, except to create a plugin which an extra db field named "tag_description" and make some sort of a "tag management area" in the admin section however this would be my last choice. Is there an easier way?

Any help appreciated!

Thank you.

WordPress got descriptions for "tags", "categories" and custom "taxonomies" built in for each added term/taxon. - kaiser
Thanks a lot! I think I see it!, I have never used it before and I am glad I asked. I could call it tag_description( $tag_id ) right ? - Milan
Or the lower level API fn term_description(). - kaiser
You should post it as an answer so I can vote you up. - Milan

WordPress got descriptions for "tags", "categories" and custom "taxonomies" built in for each added term/taxon.

You can use the API function tag_description(), or the lower level API fn term_description().
