<p>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.</p>
<p>Numerous formatting options are provided, including maximum numbers of terms, term order, truncating of term names, and more.</p>
<p>Using the <code>taxonomy_dropdown_widget()</code> function, users can generate dropdowns for use outside of the included widget.</p>
<p><strong>Only use version 2.2 or higher with WordPress 4.2 and later releases.</strong> WordPress 4.2 changed how taxonomy information is stored in the database, which directly impacts this plugin’s include/exclude term functionality.</p>
<p>This plugin was formerly known as the <code>Tag Dropdown Widget</code>. It was completely rewritten for version 2.0.</p>
