How to exclude specific tags from Entry Meta in Genesis

In the members-only forum a user asked:

There are a number of guides for doing this with categories in Genesis with functions.php code, but I've yet to come across one that works with specific tags instead of categories.

The usage scenario is this: I have some specific tags I use for administrative purposes (eg. featured) that I use as a filter in Genesis Featured Posts Combo and similar widgets. But I don't want those showing up in the post metadata. I do want the other tags showing up, though, so I don't want to just hide all tags.

We can create a custom function hooked to get_the_terms filter that iterates over all the tags of the current post in the loop, checking for each if it is in a custom array of tags to be excluded and if so remove it from get_the_tag_list().

We make use of the above inside the function for a custom [selected_post_tags] shortcode that shall be used instead of the standard Tagged With: Custom Shortcode, entry meta, get_the_terms, post_tags, Tags via the genesis_post_meta filter.

For a Post that has say, "Featured", "Slider" and "Threaded Comments" tags
