The issue
Having ever faced the challenge of being told that your post contains more than 5 tags when you try to publish a new post on Steemit despite the fact that you entered only 5 tags into the category section?
The cause
The reason for this error is simply because you must have used entered other tags in the post itself by using the hashtag symbol #whatever.
The Steemit editor counts all hashtags in your post as tags in addition to the tags you enter in the tag/category section!
The solution
As you might have already guessed, the simple way to solve this problem is to either remove the extra hashtags in your post which have the # symbol or to reduce the number of tags you enter in the category section so together they all tally 5!
