I have a new site I have been asked to sort out.

Frustratingly the company who sorted the basic site all seem on holiday for a fortnight...

I want to replace a code that lists four specific, related downlaods for each post in the side bar.

At present I have to manually edit each sidebar to include the downloads.

[downloads number="4" columns="1" buy_button="yes" downloads ids="667,854,852"]

If I replace with the following, will it draw in specific tagged downloads?

[downloads number="4" columns="1" buy_button="yes" downloads [b]tags[/b]="[b]curriculum[/b]"]

If not, what would work?

It seems bonkers to have a sidebar of related downloads, that I manually have to set up for 178 pages... I thought this was raison d'etre of wordpress...

Unfortunately. It is very likely the company on it's summer holidays probably implemented the short code also. So you'll have to look at that code. Unless the short codes are added by a standard Wordpress plugin - in which case the short code and associated parameters will be on the Wordpress support documentation somewhere.
