Tag Cloug Help!

[stevendavid]

Hey guys... I really suck at programming, so I hope one of you can help me.
I'm running PP 1.6.0 and I can't manage to get WARCHIVES to work properly, so I decided to try the META_CATEGORIES ADDON instead, but Most viewed, Last viewed, and Tag Cloud won't work properly.
Strangely though, the other two are fine (Most commented/last
commented), which leads me to believe I installed it properly. I am only interested in the tag cloud feature for my browse template.

Have any idea what I could do to fix this? Also, the Warchive addon doesn't yield any data although I'm using the tag properly. Maybe it's a problem with MySQL. This
is a link to the meta template on my site:
http://stevendavid.eu/index.php?x=meta&z=lastcomm If you could help me
out, I would really appreciate it!

PHP-version 4.3.11 (Pixelpost's min requirement: PHP version: 4.3.0 )
Session save path /tmp
MySQL version 4.0.27-max-log (Pixelpost's min requirement: MySQL: 3.23.58 )
GD-lib bundled (2.0.28 compatible) with JPEG support
File Uploads to Pixelpost site are possible.
Server Software Apache

Thanks,

Steven David

Pixelpost has its own tagcloud features as of version 1.6. Have a look at the documentation in the docs folder.

Thanks for the response schonhose! I feel that I'm one step closer of achieving exactly what I want. Although I can now get a category list, how can I make the font size correspond with number of images in that category?

[Dennis]

categories are not tags :D

http://docs.dwilkinsjr.com/1.6.0/tags.html#other

<TAG_LINKS_AS_LIST> Tag links as a text list for default PP's archive page
<TAG_LINKS_AS_LIST_PAGED> Tag links as a text list for page-by-page archive
<TAG_IMG_LIST> List of tags for showed image
<TAG_IMG_LIST_PAGED> List of tags for showed image


See also my page, it has a tagcloud in front which is standard Pixelpost functions.

schonhose...thanks for your help! I managed to get it work wonderfully!.. I really appreciate your time. ALSO, do you know how to eliminate the picture count from appearing?

[Dennis]

what do you mean by picture count? In the URL or in the template?

[stevendavid]

Thanks again for helping me out. I was referring to the picture count users see. I can't say for sure if it's the template or url, but let me give you an example; on your site one sees: antiek (8) Belgie (5) bloem (7) brand (1) close_up (8) dieren (11) diversen (7) Duitsland (10). How can change the addon so that I see ony:antiek Belgie bloem brand close_up dieren diversen Duitsland ??? Hence no (picture count)? Thanks for your time!

[Dennis]

Ok the tagcloud.. uhm, as far as I remember it requires some hacking of the core files. I'll get back to you on that one.

[stevendavid]

Alright... This is definitely something I'm not good at! Thanks again! -Steven

As promised: open in your addons folder the paged_archive.php file with an ASCII editor (NOT MS Word).

look for the line:

$tags_output .= '<a href="index.php?x=browse&amp;tag='.$tag.'" class="tags'.$rank[0].$rank[2].'">'.$tag.'&nbsp;('.$cnt.')</a> ';


replace with:

$tags_output .= '<a href="index.php?x=browse&amp;tag='.$tag.'" class="tags'.$rank[0].$rank[2].'">'.$tag.'</a> ';

[stevendavid]

THANKS!!!! You're the man! and again, I really appreciate your time!

I'm considering making it an option. I'll have to discuss it first though.

I would be cool as an option. This thread really helped though. Thanks!
