Tag Display is a flexible WordPress plugin to showcase tags with clean, modern styles and customization.

== Description ==  

Tag Display allows you to present your WordPress tags using different templates, improving user engagement and navigation.
Choose between five customizable templates:

1. **Default Template:** Clean and modern tag buttons with subtle hover effects.
2. **Minimal Template:** Simple text links separated by commas for a clean look.
3. **Tag Cloud Template:** Tags displayed in a cloud format with sizes proportional to post count.
4. **Outlined Template:** Transparent background with a colored border — modern pill-style buttons.
5. **Hashtag Template:** Social-style tags prefixed with `#` — Instagram/Twitter look.

**Features:**
- Five tag templates for flexible styling.
- Native Gutenberg block for the block editor (no shortcode needed).
- Easy shortcode integration: `[s7n_tag_display]` or `[s7n_tag_display template="minimal"]`.
- Admin settings page with live template preview and color picker.
- Automatic or manual tag display (before or after content).
- Tag ordering: alphabetical, by post count, or random.
- Limit the number of tags shown and exclude specific tags by slug.
- Support for custom taxonomies alongside WordPress tags.
- SEO options: rel="nofollow" and target="_blank" for tag links.
- Optimized for performance and easy to configure.
