I had the same problem with a commode in 1 of the bathrooms. An old plumber told me to put a patio brick down in the tank of water out of the way of the flapper and ballcock so as not to interfere with anything. It worked. The tank never sweat again. Cheap fix too.

The liner kits work ok. Use the fan in the bathroom to remove as much moisture in the air from the bathroom. If its bad after you put a tank liner in you'll have to get a plumber to install a mixing valve that puts some hot water into the cold water side to warm up it up and eliminate the condensation.

I installed low volume toilets that do not store the water in the tank. It is stored in a tray and dumped into the tank to flush. They work great, no cndensation, and I bought them at Home Depot for $100 each. Well worth the money.

keep the toilet warm, it is the cold that condenses the humidity. Other than that you could try a dehumidifier.

buy a Styrofoam kit at Home Depot, it installs inside the tank or you can just buy 3/8" Styrofoam and glue and cut and fit it your self, the kit is easy and will work.
