Warning link not working
Can we remove the big yellow box?
 * I clicked on this and it went nowhere: "http://central.wiki-tools.com/wiki/Extension:Wiki_Category_Tag_Cloud"
 * Download-Link is not working - if someone needs the Code, we can send a copy of an old "Wiki Category Tag Cloud (Version 1.0.1)" --Martin 16:39, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

How to exclude Templates from Showing
This is a great extension. However, at the moment, it is showing all my templates as well as the more meaningful categories. Is there any way that I can change it so that it doesn't include any categories with the word template in them? A kind of wildcard *template* exclude? Any help/advice much appreciated. Thanks

Thanks

Additional Configuration Information
--Sean.mcclowry 11:24, 5 November 2007 (UTC) Some additional config info that applies more broadly but I forgot when I initial configured this extension:
 * Sometimes categories will take a while to refresh (i.e. if you delete a category it will stay in the cache a while
 * Don't use spaces after commas in the exclude list
 * Use underscores between multi word categories in the exclude list

Great Extension.
I amended the code in my copy so that hovering over a link shows the number of pages in that category.

My first attempt at amending an extension so this may not work for everyone but did the job on my site and didn't seem to break anything else.

Replace Line 123 (In the version I downloaded - may differ in other versions!):

How to include all pages in a subcategory
I was wondering if there was any way to include all the pages in the subcategory as "members" of the parent category so that the name of the category is given more prominence. Right now, a category with 2 articles and 2 subcategories is as large as a category with 4 articles, which is misleading since the category in the first case contains more information and, in theory, should be larger.

Bug?
After Installation I get always a "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in / /extensions/tag_cloud.php on line 44"

excluding the lines 40-46 /* function invalidateCache { $titles[0] = explode( "\n", wfMsg('tagcloudpages') ); for ($i = 0; $i < count($titles); $i++) { Title :: newFromText($titles[$i])->invalidateCache; } }  */

I'll get an cache delay after an update of my Tags

strange cache problem
the extension works and looks great but when i try submit anything the entire wiki is unreacable from the browser im using... all it gives me is a done page with nothing displayed. i can then use ie but after submitting in ie i get the same problem. only thing i can think that may be causing a problem is fckeditor

thanks westie

Locating the code
I can't see any code that I can paste into the extension php file. And I can't follow the link in the yellow box at the top in the hope of finding it there. Does anyone know where the code can be found perhaps? Thanks. 82.133.123.210 22:43, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
