WordPress tag widgets display tags in a tag cloud by default. Here’s how to override that default behaviour; specifically, how to display WordPress tags as lists.
add_filter('widget_tag_cloud_args','nwb_tag_cloud_filter'); function nwb_tag_cloud_filter($args) { $my_args = array( 'smallest' => 14, 'largest' => 14, 'format' => 'list', 'unit' => 'px', ); $args = wp_parse_args( $args, $my_args ); return $args; }
