Sorry for the delay, I was on vacation -- this is not currently possible and I won't implement this because it's out of scope. Hashtags are inherently free-tagging since you can type whatever you want and put a hash symbol in front of it. There's no point restricting which tags can be used unless users are literally choosing from a list which is not a feature that fits with FBSS but it is one that could fairly easily be added by a separate module.

Hi IcecreamYou,

I have the same question. Is there a way to provide some guidance on how to change it from has tags to limited term list taxonomy with a module. Thx Much.

I would also be interested in this. I know it's out of scope for general purpose of this module, but the thing is that this module can be used for many other things. So for me dropdown for selecting taxonomy term's would be highly useful in my project(s).
