Display Tags in tplist as non-links

Hi, Teachpress-Developers!

First of all: Thank you for this great plugin – it is a tremendous help for the setup of the webpage of our large-scale research project!

I have a very specific (and maybe odd) request:
We have a publication list that lists all publications of the whole project (set-up via tpcloud) which does exactly what we need.
Now we want to add sort of “partial” lists that only show publications of the single sub-projects – the sub-projects IDs are the tags of the publications. To achieve this, I’ve used tplist shortcode with the tag option. In addition, we would like to highlight “cooperation” publications: i.e. show all the involved subproject (as tags). So I switched on show_tags_as=”pulldown”, which gives me the list and the tag filter. However, I do not want the filter for the tags or clickable links, because even though I am in a tplist of a specific tag A, following another tag B will show me all publications of tag B – even those that are not additionally tagged with A.

Is there a way to achieve this: no tag filter and only a list of tags without links?
I’ve tried fiddling around with a list template, but so far the best I’ve come up with is to “hide” the links (i.e. make them look like “normal text”), but of course the links are stil there and that does not get rid of the tag filter.

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,
Thomas
