Hrw tag cloud widget

December 22nd, 2007 | by Marcin Juszkiewicz

I use tags on my blog for years. First it was done with UTW and when WordPress MU 1.3 got released I switched to native WP tags.

The first thing which I missed was nice Tag Cloud widget. Default WP one just printed all tags without giving any control to user about how it have to look. So I looked at source and wrote own version.

How to use it?

Fetch archive, unpack into wp-content/plugins/ directory and enable “Hrw Tag cloud widget” in “Plugins list”. Then go to “Presentation/Widgets” and replace “Tag cloud” widget with mine. You will see configuration options.

Download archive.

    Daniel: format editing is not yet supported - only font size change.

    Nice work Marcin. I was glad to see native tag support in WP 2.3, but was finding the default largest font too big on my particular site. Problem solved with your simple plugin :)

    If someone needs more options then I suggest using Configurable Tag Cloud Widget instead.

    I switched today ;)
