Tagadelic: weighted tags in a tag cloud
The tagadelic module generates a page with weighted tags, indicating how many times a category or tag has been used to categorize content on the site. The cool thing is that by merely altering font sizes, these lists suddenly gain a dimension: the more often a tag is used, the larger its font size. Tagadelic offers various ways to add terms and vocabularies in one tag cloud. By using the urls, you can create your own clouds pages. It also offers a sideblock for each taxonomy tree. Tagadelic offers dynamic URLs.
This module will work with any vocabulary, be it marked for free tagging or not. If you are not happy with the tags from non-free tagging vocabularies showing up, then use the URL tricks below.
You can:
- visit tagadelic/list/2,1,5 to get the vocabularies 2,1 and 5 listed as tag groups.
- visit tagadelic/chunk/2,1,5 to get a tag cloud of the tags in the vocabularies 2,1 and 5.
- file issues, read about known bugs, and download the latest version on the Tagadelic project page.

Tag cloud with Drupal
Tag cloud with Drupal Tagadelic module - micropost.
12 December, 2007 - 09:10 — HornCologne from copied from http://horncologne.com/content/tag_cloud_drupal_tagadelic_module_-_micro...
So I wanted one of those nice "tag clouds" of key words from my site. No problem! Drupal has the Tagadelic module. Once downloaded and unzipped to my /sites/all/modules folder, module activated, I was ready to go! ... Right? Well, no. This thing is so simple, no one seems to have documented the on switch ... I found a lot of code samples for various interesting implementations. I found its settings in my Drupal installation, but no how-to.
To save you the hours of futzing around I just went through here it is: go to YOURSITE/admin/build/block, scroll down and find the block inexplicably called "tags in Tags" (you can rename it in the "configure" options, I did), activate this where you'd like to have it. Done. Whew. We have tag cloud.
block
"tags in tags"? mine was "tags in keywords"
Tagadelic makes tag cloud by itself
I was quite confused by this page. So to clarify:
1) there is a module called tagadelic. It can make a tag cloud without any other contributed modules.
2) After you enable tagadelic, go to admin-settings.
pick sort by title, ascending
3) leave number of tags and number of levels at their default settings
4) surf to www.example.com/tagcloud (put your domain name instead of example.com). You will see the tagcloud there.
5) If the sizes are not correct (categories with more posts will have a larger font), check to make sure the css file is properly loaded.
6) If you see nothing at the tagcloud, make sure you have some posts that have some taxonomy (it does not have to be free tag)
other address
For me, right now, the www.example.com/tagcloud doesn't work. But www.example.com/tagadelic works.

tagadelic/chunk/1,2,3
Yes, the tagcloud only works if you use this URL format as a menu item tagadelic/chunk/1,2,3
Your domain is assumed for internal links. Not sure how to get this into a block.

Getting the tagedelic chunk display as a block
Any ideas on how to get the chunk display as a block. By default it does this on a by vocabulary-basis. I would like to see everything combined into a single display.
Same here
I would like to figure out how to do this too!
Read how to do this here:
This question was answered in the first comment:

Look out for the "Tag in Tags" block under the Admin>Site>Blocks on your navigation.
I was happy to find the answer, cause it would have been a hair pulling evening for me too if I didn't :)
Good luck developing guys.

what i dont get is where do i input the tags, it doesnt say anywhere how i add tags to my content
Taxonomy
The tagadelic module will build the cloud tag using the taxonomies that you configured in your drupal. To configure a taxonomy (or category), you will need to go to admin/content/taxonomy.
To see a cloud tag with all taxonomies you created, go to www.exemplo.com/?q=tagadelic (or www.exemplo.com/tagadelic).
To see a cloud with the tags of just a taxonomy, you will need, at first, to discover the ID of the taxonomy. One way is in admin/content/taxonomy just put the mouse over the links at right of the taxonomy name, what number appear at end of the url? you will use this number here, at the end: www.example.com/?q=tagadelic/chunk/<>
With this url, you just need to create a new link in the menu.

Context clouds
Is it possible to generate tag clouds for a subset of the content? For example the current tag cloud is generated for all the content on the site. What I would like to do is view a category and get a tag cloud of the tags associated with the content under that category. Or a tag cloud based on the terms attached to the items returned from a search. That way the tag cloud will change based on what you are looking at and you will get a cloud that is relevant to the content.
