With Wordpress now having built-in tag support, I’ve updated the plugin to show a list of your tags in columns that I originally created to work with Ultimate Tag Warrior.
The plugin will list Wordpress tags in columns and in vertical groups.
Installation
- Download the plugin and rename from
cre8d_tags_in_columns.txttocre8d_tags_in_columns.php - Upload the plugin to your plugins directory and activate the plugin
- Access the listing by including
echo cre8d_tag_columns();somewhere in your template. This will give, by default, 3 columns and tags grouped vertically in 5s. If you wanted 2 columns and groups of ten, use:echo cre8d_tag_columns(2,10);and so forth. - Add to your stylesheet the following:
.list-column { float: left; width: 160px; margin: 0 5px; }
.list-column ul { margin-left: 0; padding-left: 0; }
.list-column ul li { list-style-type: none; }
.spacer { margin-bottom: 20px; } - Optionally tweak the width of .list-column to suit your blog’s layout. You may like to change the vertical spacing (.spacer) between groups too.

Great plugin! I had to make a small modification I wanted to share. For anyone wanting to use this plugin to display tags on a single post just change this line:
$tags = get_tags(array(‘orderby’=>name,’order’=>ASC,’number’=>100000));
this this:
$tags = get_the_tags();
and now the plugin will only pull back tags for the specific post you call the function on.
