   I am trying to display an unordered list of posts by TAG, not category. On one of my sites, I have a list by CATEGORY as follows:

   <ul>
   <?php
   $posts=get_posts('cat=13&showposts=50');
   if ($posts) {
   foreach($posts as $post) {
   setup_postdata($post);
   printf ("<li><a href=\"%s\">%s</a></li>", get_permalink($post->ID),$post->post_title);
   ?>
   <?php }
   }
   ?>
   </ul>

   Is it possible to modify this code to display a list of posts by TAG instead of CATEGORY?

   Thanks for any help!

   I use this on a page, it only lists the Tag name which is linked to a page with all the post titles using that tag.

   '<?php wp_tag_cloud( 'format=list&orderby=count&order=DESC&smallest=8&largest=8' ); ?>'

   the 8 and 8 means 8 pixels for the display size.
   Some of the looks of this will be controlled by your CSS for tags.

   Maybe this is a start.. you could add in the get posts and permalink stuff?

   list all posts sorted by tag name or category name
   

   <?php
   //get all terms (e.g. categories or post tags), then display all posts in each term
   $taxonomy = 'post_tag';//  e.g. post_tag, category
   $param_type = 'tag__in'; //  e.g. tag__in, category__in
   $term_args=array(
     'orderby' => 'name',
     'order' => 'ASC'
   );
   $terms = get_terms($taxonomy,$term_args);
   if ($terms) {
     foreach( $terms as $term ) {
       $args=array(
         "$param_type" => array($term->term_id),
         'post_type' => 'post',
         'post_status' => 'publish',
         'posts_per_page' => -1,
         'caller_get_posts'=> 1
         );
       $my_query = null;
       $my_query = new WP_Query($args);
       if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
         echo 'List of Posts in '.$taxonomy .' '.$term->name;
         while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
           <p><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></p>
          <?php
         endwhile;
       }
     }
   }
   wp_reset_query();  // Restore global post data stomped by the_post().
   ?>

   Thanks for the help.

   MichaelH, that code works for me, but is there a way to only display one particular tag? Right now, they all show up which is way too many.

   $term_args=array(
     'include' => '1,2,3',
     'orderby' => 'name',
     'order' => 'ASC'
   );

   See Function_Reference/get_terms for more arguments
