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.

"tags in tags"? mine was "tags in keywords"

"tags in tags" means you'll

eoneillPPH commented 15 September 2009 at 16:54

"tags in tags" means you'll see all the tags in the vocabulary "tags". (just in case that wasn't apparent to anybody... it had me a bit confused at first.)

Just to add, after you upload

amarcionek commented 16 October 2009 at 13:31

Just to add, after you upload to /sites/all/modules folder, make sure to go to admin/build/modules and "Enable" the module. I know adc said "activated" but I spent 20 minutes figuring out what that meant.

Tagadelic makes tag cloud by itself

dmnd commented 8 August 2008 at 13:55

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

brunoslessa commented 17 August 2008 at 16:01

For me, right now, the www.example.com/tagcloud doesn't work. But www.example.com/tagadelic works.

tagadelic/chunk/1,2,3

strellman commented 29 October 2008 at 14:22

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

ojfam commented 25 February 2009 at 11:30

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

Miria commented 4 March 2009 at 17:30

I would like to figure out how to do this too!

This question was answered in the first comment:
http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/Tagadelic#comment-893778

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.

Hi,

In drupal 6 you will configure the module in the address www.example.com/admin/settings/tagadelic

To se the tag cloud, go to www.example.com/tagadelic or www.example.com/tagadelic/chunk/1

Need more help?

philingle commented 26 June 2009 at 13:16

what i dont get is where do i input the tags, it doesnt say anywhere how i add tags to my content

Taxonomy

brunoslessa commented 30 June 2009 at 00:54

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.

single cloud from multiple vocabularies

dankoB commented 5 October 2009 at 00:57

This does not answer the question. I have no problem getting tags in vocabularies to show up as clouds in blocks. The problem is that there is one for each vocabulary. Is there a way to combine all the tags from several vocabularies into one cloud? Or do I need to go back and only have one vocabulary?

Getting mutiple vocabs in one cloud

commented 26 July 2010 at 08:08

Here's how to do this (with 6.x)

<?php
if (module_exists("tagadelic")) {
  $output = "";
  $tag_levels = 3; //max 10
  $tag_count = 20; //unlimited, but think about the size of the rendered block......
  $vocs = array();
  $voc_ids = array(1, 2, 3); //include tags from vocabularies: 1, 2 and 3. Replace this list to your needs.
  foreach ($voc_ids as $voc_id) {
    if ($voc = taxonomy_vocabulary_load($voc_id)) {
      $vocs[] = $voc->vid;
    }
  }
  if (!empty($vocs)) {
    $tags = tagadelic_get_weighted_tags($vocs, $tag_levels, $tag_count);
    $tags = tagadelic_sort_tags($tags);
    $output = theme('tagadelic_weighted',$tags);
  }
  print $output;   
}
?>

Programatically displaying a block

mattjbondi commented 16 November 2011 at 22:02

... that contains terms from multiple vocabs in D7 can be done by just using this code in a .tpl.php or even in hook_menu()
print tagadelic_page_chunk(array(1,2,3));

Context clouds

scott.whittaker commented 4 May 2009 at 00:03

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.

Clouds per taxonomy term

kacash commented 21 July 2009 at 20:40

scott.whittaker, I just ran into the same question today, and wrote a little code for it. I think perhaps it would have been easier to do this with the Views Cloud module, but in case this is helpful to anyone, here goes:

New code in template.php:

function tags_per_term($tid) {
  $vocs[] = 5; // tags vocabulary
  $number_of_tags = variable_get('tagadelic_page_amount', '12');
  $steps = variable_get('tagadelic_levels', 6);
  $terms = taxonomy_get_children($tid, $vid = 0, $key = 'tid');
  $terms = array_keys($terms);
  $terms[] = $tid; 
  $sql = 'SELECT COUNT( * ) AS count, t.tid, t.name, t.vid
    FROM {term_data} t
    INNER JOIN {term_node} n1 ON t.tid = n1.tid AND t.vid = 5
    INNER JOIN {term_node} n2 ON n1.nid = n2.nid 
	WHERE n2.tid IN('.$terms = implode(',',$terms).')
    GROUP BY t.tid, t.name, t.vid
    ORDER BY count DESC';
  $result = db_query_range($sql, 0, $number_of_tags);
  $tags = tagadelic_build_weighted_tags($result, $steps);
  return theme('tagadelic_weighted', tagadelic_sort_tags($tags));
  #return $sql;
}

This function is then called up via a new block:

<?php
drupal_set_html_head('<style type="text/css">@import url('.drupal_get_path('module','tagadelic').'/tagadelic.css);</style>');
print tags_per_term(arg(2));
?>

I set the block to only appear on the categories I'm interested in (e.g. taxonomy/term/*), so arg(2) is always the category's ID number and things work swimmingly. Also in my case my tags are in vocabulary 5, so you'll probably need to change that.

for drupal 6.x?

scalp commented 9 March 2010 at 22:35

rarezoo,
This is exactly what I need, but I can't get it working. I know this thread is old and for Drupal 4.x, but I was hoping that because your post was more recent maybe it was for 6.x. I'm trying to show siblings of the current term being viewed so my block looks like this:

<?php
drupal_set_html_head('<style type="text/css">@import url('.drupal_get_path('module','tagadelic').'/tagadelic.css);</style>');
if ((strcmp(arg(0), 'taxonomy') == 0) && (strcmp(arg(1), 'term') == 0) && is_numeric(arg(2))) {
$parents = taxonomy_get_parents(arg(2), $key = 'tid');
foreach ($parents as $parent) {
$tid = $parent->tid;
print tags_per_term($tid);
}
}
?>

I can print $tid and it's correct so I think I'm okay there. I've tried placing the tags_per_term function in both my template.php file and inside the tagadelic module with no luck. I'm sure there are other ways to do this, but I'd love to run it through the tagadelic module because I already have that modified to run some extra queries that I want run on the block above.

Run cron

catdevrandom commented 8 September 2009 at 10:14

Hello,

(about the "Page not found" when visiting www.example.com/tagadelic link.)

I was having the same issue. You might have to just run cron (visit www.example.com/cron.php; it will show a blank page, but it doesn't matter). Then try the www.example.com/tagadelic link again.

Page -still- not found

SebScoFr commented 1 December 2009 at 21:56

Hello all,

I installed the tagadelic module today and I'm experiencing the "Page not found" issue since then.

I've created my tags within the taxonomy section AND I tried to run cron as catdevrandom suggested but still the page can not be found when I go to www.example.com/tagadelic (I've activated clean urls)

Could that be related to the tagadelic version used?

Hopefuly some of you might have encountered this situation in the past and help me fix it cause it's getting me nuts :s

Btw, I'm running drupal on a local machine (windows) using Apache.

EDIT: Ok the only problem was there were no tag... I thought tags would be automatically recognized when creating content but with my configuration I've got to manually tag the content. Shame on me =)

How to tag??

priti_p commented 22 March 2013 at 12:31

Hey there..
I had same question..
but how did you tag?
I mean what did you do exactly??
I am really stucked here!!!

not all tags are shown

elmuchacho commented 10 November 2009 at 16:06

runs ...
but new tags entered in the taxonomy vocabulary are only shown when i change the amount of tags in the config of the block ...
if i change it f.e. from 50 to 30, ALL tags are shown ...
if a add a new tag in the vocabulary, this new tag is shown only after changing the amount of tags in the block's config once more ...

this is strange ...

any way to show new tags by adding them ?

As VM pointed out use clear

Denny commented 11 February 2010 at 03:38

As VM pointed out use clear cache in admin/settings/performance.

Not the solution

hiephm commented 7 March 2011 at 10:13

I think it's un-reality to clear cache after user add free tags.
Only the admin has the authority to clear cache and, of course you don't want to clear cache that so often.

BTW, there's a patch to fix this problem: http://drupal.org/node/1069294
It ran OK when I applied it. Hope it's incoporated in the new release soon.

Thank you very much.

sudha.r commented 18 August 2010 at 18:06

@adc, hello , Thank you very much for yor post regardsing teh tagedelic module, your post helped me out a lot, Gave me a chance to take the fist step successfully.

Now, my tag cloud is visible on my website, but..its not in the form of a cloud, i mean all very straing horizontally and deciplined tags, I want them .. moving inside the block., and alos not only the terms i've entered in the taxonomy but also the popular searches in my website should be seen in the tag cloud, how is that possible??

Thank you very much once again.
Regards,
Sudha.

How to change chunk/1 url

schmickledilly commented 25 June 2012 at 20:14

I know a little about Drupal overall, but I'm not a Drupal expert, so forgive the newbish question..

I can't seem to figure out how to change the chunk/1 url to something more seo friendly, like /tags for the main tag cloud page. Can anyone help me with that?

Thanks in advance. meh

I have read every single

Vako commented 28 March 2013 at 03:52

I have read every single comment on this page and noticed that this module didn't work in 99% of the posts.
So, my question is: is this a fake module? does it only work for some and not others?
For people who it does work for, please explain to us the process to make it work.

I have tried all the suggestions and still am getting "Page not found" error when I go to /tagadelic or /tagadelic/chunk/1...
The block is configured but doesn't show up.
link .../tagadelic/list/5,6,7 gives Page not found
Taxonomy is configured with terms.
Module activated and configured
Caches cleared
Cron was run

What is missing?
