This means that
a) the tags I pasted above were taken from the metadata of your posts, not from the tag cloud;
b) the tag cloud displays tags from published posts only. Clicking on a tag in the tag cloud takes you to the posts that use that tag, so there's absolutely no point displaying a tag you haven't used yet.

"Is there no way to use more than 45 tags?"
You can use as many tags as you like.

As I said in my original post, I have 33 total tags, but only 26 are showing.

It occurs to me now, however, that those other 7 haven't been added to posts yet, I just added them to the tag list, just to have them ready to go.

Is there no way to use more than 45 tags?

3 stars
4 stars
5 stars
bad boy
beach
besties
body snatchers
chemistry
clichés
desert
geek
hotness
horror
ice princess
isn't it romantic
jessica park
kristin hannah
must read
romance
sad
sarah ockler
simone elkeles
steamy sexy
stephenie meyer
summer
v-card

They're 26, not 33, so the TG widget is displaying all of them.

But note that the widget does have a limit: it displays up to 45 tags (when you have more than 45, it'll display the 45 most used ones).

On another issue: Don't use the same word as both a tag and a category. For search engines and for the global WP tag pages they are exactly the same thing, so there's no point duplicating them, plus you'll run into technical problems when you do that.

Is there any way I can make them all show up? I am using rounded theme.
