How to do it...

1. Go to Structure and then Views. This will bring you to the administrative overview of all the views that are created.
2. Click on Add view to create a new view.
3. The first step is to provide the View name of Tags, which will serve as the administrative and (by default) displayed title.

 

1. Next, we will modify the VIEW SETTINGS. We want to display Taxonomy terms of the type Tags. This will make the view default to only displaying taxonomy terms created under the Tags vocabulary.
2. Check the Create a block checkbox in the BLOCK SETTINGS section.
3. Select the HTML List option from the Display format choices. Leave the style as Fields:

1. Click on Save and edit to create the view.
2. We want to display all the available tags. Under the PAGER section, click on the field next to Use Pager and select Display all items and click on Apply.

 

1. Next, we will sort the view by tag name instead of order of creation. Click on Add on the SORT CRITERIA section.Select the checkbox where Name : Taxonomy term and click on Add and configure sort criteria to use the default, that is, ascending. Click on Apply:

1. Click on Save to save the view.
2. Go to Structure and Block layout to place the block on your Drupal site. Click on Place block for the Sidebar first region in the Bartik theme.
3. Filter the list by typing your view's name (Tags). Click on Place block to add your view's block to the block layout.
4. Finally, click on Save block to commit your changes.
