How to have an multipage alphabetical Tag index

How do you create the current list, do you use a page template?.. if so, can i see what you have so far..

Shouldn’t be too hard to do what you’re asking…

get_terms supports a parameter called “name__like” which allows you to return a list of tags that start with a particular letter, which makes it ideal for what you need.

All that’s essentially needed now is some code to manage the various different pages for each letter (and course numeric values). Should be easy enough, but i’d like to see what you have currently first..

Thanks for the reply.

Currently I use the Multi-column Tag Map plugin

Ok, that’s great but it doesn’t help me understand how your current page creates it’s index of post tags..

Does the plugin do it all for you?

yeah, it does.

I just add a page and the following code [mctagmap columns=”2″ more=”more!” hide=”yes” num_show=”100″]

Which then creates the index

I’ve made a page template for you to use. You’ll need to do update the HTML to suit your theme, can you manage that?

I have a working copy, i’m just testing it a little then i’ll provide the code for you..

Hi Scouse,

See the following for page template code.
https://wordpress.pastebin.ca/1730939

Copy the code from the bottom most area of that page (further down), paste it into an empty file, save that file as something like atozindex.php , upload the file to your theme’s folder, then create a page (or using your existing a-z one) and attach the new template (should be selectable to the right) and save.

View the page, let me know if that’s what you had in mind (bearing in mind, i couldn’t write the HTML to fit perfectly because i’m not running the same theme). I did put some elements in to match what’s on your current page, so it should only require minor adjustment..

EDIT: You might find this version a little easier to work with, moved the PHP stuff to the top, and the HTML stuff toward the bottom (you may find this easier).
