    Hi, thanks for the great plugin. I just need a little bit more help regarding tag cloud on the edit page. My website is a multi-author web and I would like for the tag cloud to be removed so people will not have the access to popular/tag cloud in the back end. I tried the below code and all are not working so great.

    The taxonomy slug that I’d like to have it’s tag cloud hidden is “creator”

    $labels = array('name' => 'creator', 
    'popular_items' => NULL);
register_taxonomy('creator', 'author', 
    array('show_tagcloud' => false, 
        'hierarchical' => false, 
        'labels' => $labels, 
        'query_var' => true, 
        'show_in_menu' => false,
        'choose_from_most_used' => NULL,));

    and 

    add_filter( 'wp_tag_cloud', 'remove_tag_cloud', 10, 2 );

function remove_tag_cloud ( $return, $args )
{
        return false;
}

    So, anyone can help me with this issue?

    Hi,

    Not sure we’ll be able to be too much help, but we’ll try.

    Regarding trying to set “choose_from_most_used” to null, that would be part of the $labels variable, and not a spot set in that current position in your code. Also, setting to null would cause it to fall back to default values, and not be empty. Perhaps ' ' would do more, as it is no string, but not technically empty.

    $labels = array('name' => 'creator', 'popular_items' => ' ', 'choose_from_most_used' => ' ' );

    For the second part, I believe that would affect the frontend more than the backend, as that’s part of the display of the cloud itself, not something on the management side.

    That said, I don’t know of any UI really for management of what shows up in a tag cloud. The terms used and displayed in it would just be managed and calculated by WordPress itself, based on numbers around tag terms just being used and their frequency.
