Answers.Body: <p>Unfortunately not.  Hopefully you have a backup of your database, and ideally a test site?  If you load the backup on your test site, you should be able to search for people with the tag, select <strong>Export</strong>, and export only the Contact ID.  Import the Contact ID list to your live site, and on the last page of the import, select <strong>Create a New Tag</strong>.  You can enter the tag's name there.  The import won't do anything other than create the tag, since it's only contact IDs.</p>

  Unfortunately not. Hopefully you have a backup of your database, and ideally a test site? If you load the backup on your test site, you should be able to search for people with the tag, select **Export**, and export only the Contact ID. Import the Contact ID list to your live site, and on the last page of the import, select **Create a New Tag**. You can enter the tag's name there. The import won't do anything other than create the tag, since it's only contact IDs.
