How do I style the tag list?

The plugin outputs semantic HTML with CSS classes:

• Container: .wlpt-tags
• List items (ul format): <li> elements
• Post count: .wlpt-count
• Custom class: Use the class attribute

Example CSS:
.wlpt-tags { font-size: 14px; }
.wlpt-tags a { color: #0073aa; }
.wlpt-count { color: #999; }

Does this plugin use caching?

Yes! The plugin uses WordPress transients to cache the tag list, improving performance. The cache is automatically cleared when tags are created, edited, or deleted. Default cache time is 1 hour (3600 seconds), but you can adjust it with the cache attribute.

Can I exclude certain tags?

Yes, use the exclude attribute with comma-separated tag IDs:
[list_post_tags exclude=”1,5,12Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ″]

To find tag IDs, go to Posts → Tags in your WordPress admin and hover over a tag name Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – the ID will appear in the URL.

Will this work with custom taxonomies?

Currently, the plugin only works with the default post_tag taxonomy. Support for custom taxonomies may be added in future versions.

Is the output XSS-safe?

Yes, all output is properly escaped using WordPress functions (esc_html, esc_url, esc_attr) to prevent XSS attacks.

Can I use this in a widget?

Yes! If your theme supports shortcodes in widgets, you can add the shortcode directly. Alternatively, use a text widget or the WordPress block editor.

How do I translate this plugin?

The plugin is translation-ready with the text domain list-post-tags-shortcode. Translation files should be placed in the /languages folder. You can use tools like Poedit or Loco Translate to create translations.
