@Niels,
Right now the function uses the WP ‘get_terms()’ function. To use it for posts, you would probably have to use the get_posts()’ function. Doing so would completely change the structure of the PHP for the plug-in. So basically, what you want to do is doable but, this plug-in wouldn’t be a simple modification to do so.

@Vanya,
You could probably combine the code found here with the code found here to achieve what you’re looking for.

I love this plugin - it’s just great for my endless tag list. I would like to ask if there’s anything similar to display the categories and the pages in multiple columns. I’ve also got a lot of products - sub-categories and sub-pages, which I display as lists on the main categories and pages manually. If there’s any way to do this automatically it will save me a lot of time.
Thank you very much!

Hi Alan, great plugin, thanks very much!

Would it be easy to modify it to make it do for posts what it does for tags?

Let me explain: I have a recipe site, all recipes are tagged with ingredients. I use your plugin to display an alphabetical list of all ingredients (sorry, site is in Dutch but you get the idea). I also have a page that displays all recipes alphabetically but I do that manually: I have to update it every time I post a new recipe. It’d be great if I could use this plugin to list posts (or rather, post titles) alphabetically on the recipes page, the way it lists tags on the ingredients page.

Does this plugin work with Wordpress 3.0? I tried to activate it and got a message that the plugin “generated 1 characters of unexpected output during activation.” Now, I’m getting a “headers already sent message.”

I use this tag map on another website that’s still running 2.9.2 and it works great. I love it! I hope it can work with 3.0 as well.

Very nice plugin, but it has a “German Problem” not showing umlauts/vowels but a “?” instead. The tag starting with an umlaut/vowel itself is shown correctly.

Hi, I love this plugin, but I want to adjust the css so that all tags in the “A” category have 3 columns side by side and under that all “B” tags. I have a recipe site and use my tags as main ingredients, so I have many tags.
Thanks

Hi,
Your plugin is awesome!
I was wondering if there is some way to do a counter for how many posts are tagged with each particular tag.

So - it would something like:
Downloads (10)
jQuery (5)

Thanks so much!

I love this plugin.

Is there any way to tell the plugin how many ‘letters’ to accommodate in each column? For example I have five columns, but my fourth column includes tags with six very frequently used first letters like P, S and T, while my first one includes some apparently ‘unpopular’ letters and numbers like U, V, W, X, Y and Z. My fifth column is therefore only half as deep as my fourth one.

It would be great to even it up somehow. Is there a way to tell the plugin which letters to include in which column? I’d hope to move ‘T’ over to column 5, for example.

Thanks!

@D.Stall,

Looks fine on FF3 on PC on my end. Glad you got the CSS sorted out.

@Alan - ‘li.hidelink a’ just needed ‘!important’ after width together with the ‘float: left’.
Now everything displays fine in Firefox, Safari and Opera on Mac.
Hope it’s fine in IE and Firefox on Windows.
Sorry for the bother.
