Catcloud Wordress Plugin Updated for WordPress 2.1
Update: This plugin is no longer maintained. I'd recommend using Wordpress' built-in tag cloud functionality or the Simple Tags plugin instead.
I just made a minor tweak to make the Catcloud plugin work with WordPress 2.1. Grab the most recent version of the plugin at http://zak.greant.com/catcloud

Thank you for your plugin.
I don't know why but (here) it adds an empty category at the end of the list so I changed line 166 as
if ($title) {
$output['data'] = …
}
I know it's not the best patch and probably it happens only to me (I have just uploaded to wp2.1) but I'd to let you know.
Oh… I put the catcloud() call inside single.php of my template.

I have a bug report for 0.4 under WP2.1 ;)
1. Carlo Perassi already said - one empty category
2. Character(s) Before Category / After Category
2.1 Under IE they gone at all (under FF all fine)
2.2 If I don't wanna those chars at all - what should I do? Deleting them (or putting space char) from input box do strange thing - after update '[' / ']' appears. Shit.
By the way - thanks for great plug!!!

Hi Zak,
I'm having a bit of a problem implementing the Tag Cloud plug-in. I am calling the function using the following code within my "sidebar.php" file:
As you can see, all I am getting is the title "Tag Clouds", no tags. Where am I going wrong? BTW, it obviously works and looks great on your site. Thanks for creating the plug-in.
Best regards,
Srini

Okay, not a php programmer here, I have no idea what a php call function is. Would it kill someone to put it here or in the install info? How long can that be?

Hey Jen,
I am assuming that you have installed the plugin in your wp-content/plugins directory.
To get the catcloud to display, try these steps.
Go to your administration interface for WordPress.
Choose the “Presentation” tab.
Choose the “Theme Editor” tab.
Select the “Sidebar” file from the list of files on the right hand side.
The file will display in the form field.
Try adding this:
< ?php catcloud(); ?>
at the very end of the file.
Save the file.
Reload your main blog page.
You should, I hope, see the category cloud.
Cheers!

Hello,
This plugin could be extremely useful for a project I'm working on. However is it possible to maintain the hierarchy of categories with catcloud? And would it be compatible with the plugin Category Order?
Best regards,
Steven

Hey Steven,
You'll need to be more specific - what exact features do you need?

Hey,
We're setting up a link repository powered by Wordpress. Catcloud could display the 150+ categories in the Main Index template nicely. Wp_list_categories works but the generated list is not attractive.
But we must maintain the hierarchy of category vs subcategory and our explicit order set up with the My Category Order plugin.

Hey Steven,
This still isn't very clear - can you provide examples?
Once I fix a few other problems, I'll take a closer look at this feature request.
However, it might be some months.
Cheers!

It looks completly different in IE and FF.
And in FF, as said before, there is a empty element at the end of the list.
And btw: nofollow is evil
