Overview
The WordPress plugin allows users to create lists of non-hierarchical taxonomies, such as post tags, providing a versatile alternative to tag clouds. Users can employ multiple widgets, each with a unique set of customizable options including the maximum number of terms, term order, and truncation of term names. The plugin offers extensive formatting capabilities for list styles, supporting both bulleted and numbered lists, and through the taxonomy_list_widget function, users can generate lists usable outside of the included widget. Compatible with WordPress 4.2 and later, this plugin—previously known as the Tag List Widget—was extensively rewritten for version 1.0 to adapt to changes in how taxonomy information is stored in the database, especially impacting the include/exclude term functionality.

Works fine with version 5.8.2
Widget appears as expected, just had to remember to search for TAXONOMY widget not TAG widget.

I too am using GP Theme and just wanted to show tags in sidebar. Installed plugin and nothing happened. Various configuration of the widget also did nothing and didn’t even appear in the sidebar.
Could just be out of date and no longer work, not sure!

I am using the widget to display tags in a sidebar, and don’t want to show all tags. This widget can exclude/include tags.
Tested on mobile, looks and works fine (GP theme)
Thank you for the plugin.

I used this plugin to concert the Tag cloud into Listing and it worked without issue. Happy with the functionality.
However, it seems that this plugin also makes many pages ‘mobile unfriendly’ on google console.
Can author check this issue please?
Thanks!

not possible to chose taxonomies, only tags.
