What's going wrong

Several owners want the dropdown to show taxonomies other than standard post tags. Some want authors included, some want categories or hierarchical custom taxonomies, and one wants WooCommerce product taxonomies that the plugin does not list by default. Others use a media library tagging plugin and find that their media tags never appear. Owners must write their own code or give up on the widget. Shops and magazine sites that organise content by several taxonomies would gain a dropdown that accepts any term source.
