  My tag cloud is not updating. I’m using the Widget in the right side panel, and understand it is limited to 45 tags, however none of the “new” tags I’ve added recently are showing in the cloud.

  I opened the widget and “Saved” as suggested in another thread. I also pulled it out of the column and reinserted – no change.

  Thanks for your help.

  Hi there,

  You have more than 45 tags, so the widget will only display your 45 most popular tags.

  Chris – Thanks for your reply. As mentioned in my original question, I understand the cap of 45 on the Tags. If I were to have more than 45 unique tags – all used with the same frequency – how does the system choose which to include in the Cloud?

  If frequency is not an option, then it defaults to the oldest tags.
