## Beskrivelse
The Tag Groups plugin allows you to organize your WordPress taxonomy terms and show
them in clouds, tabs, accordions, tables, lists and much more. You can customize
your term displays with a huge number of options and use them in posts, pages, blocks,
or shortcodes.
### All the Features in Tag Groups
The Free version of the Tag Groups plugin comes with the following features. All
of these features are available as both shortcodes and also Gutenberg blocks.
* **Tag List:** Tags appear in columns, sorted into groups. [View demos](https://demo.taxopress.com/tag-list/).
* **Tabbed Tag Cloud:** A tag cloud where tags are sorted into groups that appear
in tabs. [View demos](https://demo.taxopress.com/tabbed-tag-cloud/).
* **Accordion Tag Cloud:** A tag cloud where tags are sorted into vertically stacked
accordion groups. [View demos](https://demo.taxopress.com/accordion-tab-cloud/).
* **Alphabetical Tag Cloud:** Tags are sorted alphabetically by first letter under
tabs. [View demos](https://demo.taxopress.com/alphabetical-tabs/).

### Why Organize Terms Into Groups?
Most WordPress sites mix up terms into one big messy group. In most cases, terms
should actually be separated by topics: places, people, features, years and more.
Your term however, will become much more useful if you organize them in groups.
Imagine a tag cloud where all places appear in a «Places» group, all names under«
Names» and all years under «Years». The Tag Groups plugin lets you do exactly that.
The plugin gives you many term displays. You can also customize them, append or
prepend something to each tag. You can add separators, choose the link target, set
the smallest and the largest font size, display the post count and much more.
### Does Tag Groups Only Work With Tags?
No. Tag Groups works also great with most other (flat) taxonomies, such as WooCommerce
product tags.
The plugin does not support hierarchical taxonomies like categories.
### Does Tag Groups Work with Multilingual Websites?
Yes, this plugin is officially compatible with **WPML**, the WordPress Multilingual
plugin. This means you can use a different tag group name for each language.
### Tag Groups Pro

## Installasjon
1. Find the plugin in the list at the backend and click to install it. Or, upload
the ZIP file through the admin backend. Or, upload the unzipped tag-groups folder
to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
The plugin will create a new menu «Tag Groups» and a submenu «Tag Group Admin» in
the Post section (depending on the chosen taxonomy) where you find the tag groups.
After you have created some groups, you can edit your tags (or other terms) and
assign them to one of these groups. A filter and a bulk action menu are available
on the Tags page and you also find a filter on the Posts pages.
The tabbed tag cloud (or an accordion containing the tags) can be inserted with
a shortcode or a Gutenberg block. Options are listed under the «Tag Groups» main
menu.
## Ofte stilte spørsmål
### How Can I Start Using Tag Groups?
After activating the plugin, you will be guided by an optional **setup wizard**.
First you create groups that will contain your tags. Then you sort your tags into
these groups. You can later always come back and modify the groups or change the
tags. You don’t even need any groups if you prefer to show your tags sorted by alphabet.
Filters and bulk actions make your work with tags much easier, and you can even
filter the list of posts in your backend by the groups that their tags belong to.
### What are Possible Applications of Tag Groups?
* Display your tags grouped by language or by topic.
* Create an alphabetical index of your tags – think of a phone book for your tags.
* Display only tags of selected groups in a tag cloud.
* Choose which tags to display in different sections of your blog.
* Change the sorting order in your tag cloud.
* Customize the links, the text, the font size or the separator of your tag cloud
items.
* Prepend or append to each tag a custom character or the post count.
* Insert into each post a tag cloud using only the tags of this post.
* Easily manage huge amounts of tags or posts in the backend by dividing them into
groups.
* Add a parent level to tags and make them hierarchical.
### How Can I Show the Tags of Each Post Sorted into Groups?
Please use one of the shortcodes or Gutenberg blocks that come with the Tag Groups
plugin. Since we cannot change the code of templates or other plugins, there is
no possibility to make them aware of the new structure where tags are organized
in groups.

[spitch17](https://profiles.wordpress.org/spitch17/) 26. juni, 2024 1 svar
On the admin side, the grouping works well, very intuitive, but the implementation
has some flaws in terms accessibility. For example, using a tabbed or accordion
interface, the headers are taken out of the tab index order (open section has tabindex
=0 and closed are -1) , so cannot be accessed via keyboard UNLESS the user switches
to the arrow keys. This is not intuitive. Once opened, the tag links are keyboard
accessible via tab.
### [Now it’s just bullshit – Edit: Problem solved](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/now-its-just-bullshit/)
[Wickelwutz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wickelwutz/) 9. november, 2023 1 svar
Since the original developer ChattyMango resold the plugin, it’s just bullshit.
In the design theme «Accordion», the previously neatly and clearly separated keywords
are now suddenly and unexpectedly raped by the current development team in such
a way that the entries are now displayed as unwanted and thus confusing keyword
clouds. The documentation for customizing the free version has been removed by the
current developers. ChattyMango had provided a few code snippets in the WP backend
to refine the display of the chosen design style a bit. The current developers apparently
want to drive the user to buy the premium version for the sake of profit. It is
already clear to me that the development of a plugin is a lot of work and that it
should also be paid for with the premium version. But I don’t need the extensive
features of the premium version. But for the free version of the plugin, I would
like to get back at least the rudimentary customization options that were previously
available. With the takeover and the latest updates, the code has apparently been
messed up to such an extent that the plugin is slowing down the website. Loading
times of more than 4 seconds are unacceptable with the plug-in enabled. I tried
to delete the new version and then install the version 1.4, which was satisfactory
at the time. Version 1.4 has been installed and loading times have decreased dramatically.
But the messed-up accordion view with the stupid cloud of buzzwords stuck with me.
But the messed-up accordion view with the stupid cloud of buzzwords stayed with
me. Of course, I can’t verify how deep the current version digs into the system.
I want the Accordion theme to be able to see the list view again and the loading
times to be optimized. In other words, if you manage to screw up a previously unique
plugin like that, then you should be able to get rid of the hopelessly screwed up
nonsense in the interest of the users. And again provides proper documentation.
And above all, the helpful (example) codes for individual customization. Then there
are also asterisks again. _________________________________________________________________
Edit: Problem solved After several hours of searching and with a lot of patience,
I was now able to solve the problem I described myself and would like to share the
solution with interested parties who have the same problem: Navigate to the menus
in the WP backend. Find the «MLA Text» menu and open the widget to paste the following
code into the text box (only the bold text in the square brackets): ‘#’ [tag_groups_accordion
smallest= 14 largest=14 separator=
] ‘#’ Now the keywords embedded in the Accordion
template are no longer displayed as a confusing cloud, but as a clean list from
each other and, above all, separated from each other. In the documentation designed
by the developer, although very extensive, there are some «shortcuts» or .PHP snippets.
However, nowhere is it explained where and how to insert the code in order to be
able to make such individual adjustments. At least I didn’t find them – if these
hints were noted somewhere – despite my intensive and attentive reading for self-
help. I increase my rating to 3 stars for the user-unfriendly documentary. For the
plugin I give (also to myself) 5 stars because it works NOW the way I want it to.

Simply the best tags plugin for Wordpress. The support is great, the developer very
friendly and the plugin is very powerful with unlimited functionality and possibilities.
Congratulations and friendships.

I’m using the paid version to display posts based on tags selected. I found it simple
to use and straightforward. You can get results very quickly with this, and it’s
impressive. It also looks great. I had a problem with another plugin not working
with the Tag Cloud that the Tag Cloud support fixed. This saved me a lot of time
and was excellent customer service. I’m so pleased with the results, and I’m delighted
I bought this plugin. I can’t recommend this enough!

Perfect for what I needed. A neat and tidy tag cloud.
