Creates dropdown lists of non-hierarchical taxonomies (such as <code>post tags</code>) as an alternative to term (tag) clouds. Multiple widgets can be used, each with its own set of options.
Numerous formatting options are provided, including maximum numbers of terms, term order, truncating of term names, and more.
Using the <code>taxonomy_dropdown_widget()</code> function, users can generate dropdowns for use outside of the included widget.
Only use version 2.2 or higher with WordPress 4.2 and later releases. WordPress 4.2 changed how taxonomy information is stored in the database, which directly impacts this plugin’s include/exclude term functionality.
This plugin was formerly known as the <code>Tag Dropdown Widget</code>. It was completely rewritten for version 2.0.
