If a post has tags, I would like to show only those tags as a list in the sidebar when viewing the single post; how do I do this?

I have searched to find a suitable plugin, but didn't find one, as all the ones I've looked up end up showing every tags on the site or for categories.

I'm happy to go with a non-plugin solution.

    Thank you kaiser. Will bear the guidelines in mind for future quereis.My query is to find a way achieve the result without using a plugin, if possible.

This will display the tags of the current post in an unordered list:

<?php is_single() && the_tags( '<ul class="tags"><li>', '</li><li>', '</li></ul>' ) ?>

You'll most likely want to drop this in sidebar.php.

  • I couldn't see a sidebar.php in my template. So i added this in a widget to appear on the sidebar. Works great! Thanks
