steve, the plugin is fantastic! i'm having one issue though and it's with dynamic pages. i get this smarty error,
Smarty error: [in evaluated template line 5]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'mtcumulus' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580)
you can see it yourself at http://www.memeticians.com and just click on a tag from your tag cloud. the results page is created dynamically. otherwise, it works great on all static pages.
thanks!
@Hank,
Your site looks great. Glad you like the plugin. Honestly, I haven't tested it with dynamic pages using PHP, so I don't know if there's an issue with the plugin or the setup. I'll create a sandbox this weekend using MT and Smarty and see if I can duplicate your results.
thanks steve, you're the man! check out these pages that i found which might help,
one last thing to check out is when clicking a tag from the cloud in a subfolder page such as archived or categorized pages, the search link holds on to the subfolders and attaches the mt search link to the end instead of the root, of which a page not found results.
i'll let you know if i figure out anything about these issues in the meantime
I want to need the cloud tag. But I cannot use JavaScript code.Actually I need the html code. So that why where can I get the html code. Can you show to me.
@lagooneain - The HTML code is quite long. Your best bet is to use the Web Developer Firefox plugin and select View Source/View Generated Source. This will show you the exact HTML generated.
I wondered if someone would be kind enough to share the file base. fla (editable flash) I need it for work of the faculty (faculty of architecture and urban design ?¢‚Ǩ‚Äú santa fe ?¢‚Ǩ‚Äú argentina) only need to edit to build an interactive menu. I would give all credit to usted.Sorry for not knowing English well. thanks. THANKS ROY now
@martin,
Since MT-Cumulus is a port of WP-Cumulus, downloading the developer version of WP-Cumulus will provide you the Flash source files (fla, as, etc) that you require.

Hi! I had a tag cloud on my website but now it is invisible... I began to search a little and i found out that my previous MT-Cumulus tag that i had has moved to worldpress i think.
What i really wanted of you is that you explain how to download your tag cloud, no only your parameters but the tag cloud itself.
Thanks for the help and your time!
Sebastian
