Ping Monitor suggestions: tag import, multi-target tag assignment

Hey, I really love your Ping Monitor software. It's going to make my workflow so much easier and quicker.

One thing I have noticed, however, when I'm trying to import hosts using TXT or CSV: I can add the Target and Description, but I cannot seem to get tags to work. Is there a way to get tags to show up on imports?

Also, it would be nice if I could select multiple targets and assign tags to them at the same time. It appears I have to select each target individually to assign a tag to them.

Ping Monitor suggestions: tag import, multi-target tag assignment - Implemented   12 June 2026, 08:43

Thanks for the compliments and suggestions. Both suggestions are now implemented in the latest snapshot build.

1. Tag import

The host import now reads a third column for tags:
Target, Description, Tags
Tags within the third column are separated by a vertical bar. Example:
8.8.8.8, Google DNS, dns|external|critical
1.1.1.1, Cloudflare, dns|external

2. Assigning tags to several hosts at once

Select multiple hosts, right-click them, and choose Tags. The dialog will let you switch between Add Tags and Remove Tags. Tick the tags you want, and apply them to the entire selection in one step.
