Tags as a dropdown with set tags

by

Sorry if this is a silly question but is it possible to have a taglist as a dropdown?

I have a page where users can post theyre own content, and I would like them to be able to choose certain tags as a dropdown, is this possible?

Heres the page so you can see

I appreciate any help what so ever, anything is a huge help!

Thanks

You can use wp_dropdown_categories() to create your dropdown:

wp_dropdown_categories(array('taxonomy'=> 'post_tag','hide_empty' => 0, 'name' => 'my_tags'));

Update

the reason you are getting the term ID is because wp_dropdown_categories sets the ID’s as values so instead of just echo’ing it out you need to get the term, something like:

$term = get_term_by('id',$your_id,'post_tag');
echo $term->name;
