   Hi I want to show the tags as a list in the sidebar along with the number of posts that each tag is associated with like,

   tagname(71)

   Is there some plugin that does this.

   This might work for you:
   

   <?php
   $tags = get_tags( array('orderby' => 'count', 'order' => 'DESC') );
   foreach ( (array) $tags as $tag ) {
   echo '<a href="' . get_tag_link ($tag->term_id) . '" rel="tag">' . $tag->name . ' (' . $tag->count . ') </a>';
   }
   ?>

   I used the code shown above and it worked great.

   I'm trying to sort my tags by initial letter (all the A's under A, etc.).

   From the "get_tags" function page I think the "name_like" argument should pull this off, but for some reason, it's not working. This is what I have:

   <ul>
   <?php
   $tags = get_tags( array('name_like' => "a", 'order' => 'ASC') );
   foreach ( (array) $tags as $tag ) {
   echo '<li><a href="' . get_tag_link ($tag->term_id) . '" rel="tag">' . $tag->name . ' </a></li>';
   }
   ?>
   </ul>

   Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong? Am I using the name_like argument wrong?

   I am using the following code in my sidebar to show the list of tags with count for each.

   <?php
   $tags = get_tags( array('orderby' => 'count', 'order' => 'DESC') );
   foreach ( (array) $tags as $tag ) {
   echo '<li><a href="' . get_tag_link ($tag->term_id) . '" rel="tag">' . $tag->name . ' (' . $tag->count . ') </a></li>';
   }
   ?>

   Is there a way to have only the top (for example) 15 tags to show in this list with a link below the tags to a page where I will show all my tags in a specific format, e.g. cloud.

   Cheers,
   Simon.
