Do you want to define style details like font size and format of the tag cloud? While there’s probably a plugin for this, we have created a quick code snippet that you can use to style the tag cloud in WordPress.
Instructions:
All you have to do is add this code to your theme’s functions.php file or in a site-specific plugin:
add_filter('widget_tag_cloud_args','style_tags');
function style_tags($args) {
$args = array(
'largest' => '10',
'smallest' => '10',
'format' => 'list',
);
return $args;
}
