[resolved] Want to add tag list to theme "journalist" (6 posts)

    I'm using the "journalist" theme (scroll down here - http://lucianmarin.com/page/themes/) which I really like, but I'd like to add a tag list (not cloud).

    I found this - http://www.themelab.com/2008/04/24/how-to-add-wordpress-tag-support-to-your-theme/ - but couldn't get it to work. Also when trying to add the tag cloud under the widgets to the sidebar, it made it so only the tag cloud appeared (and wouldn't allow anything else to be moved to the sidebar) and the modification from cloud to list didn't work although as I do want the other items defaulted in the journalist theme - archive, categories, search - to remain so this wouldn't be a complete solution anyway.

    I'm pretty much an eejit and need every step spelled out - hope someone might be bored and feel like helping :-).

    thanks

    For those that need a laugh - I am a huge blind eejit - I somehow missed the "sidebar" choice on the side to edit and was trying to edit the wrong thing. The code from the themelab link in my original post worked perfectly.

    Err - related question - not all of the tags are showing up in the tag list. Can't figure out why some are and some aren't.

    Well, you've got <wp_get_tags> being output in your sidebar. That needs removing. With regard to the number of tags wp_tag_could only shows 45 tags by default. You'd need to set the number to zero to display all tags.
