Tagadelic order does not work (outside the BLOCK)
jorre - November 30, 2006 - 13:16
Hey guys, I'm using the following snippet to include tags in my page.tpl.php file (not in a block)
<?php
drupal_set_html_head('<style type="text/css">@import url('.drupal_get_path('module','tagadelic').'/tagadelic.css);</style>');
$vocs[] = 3; // id of the vocabulary of which you want to display a tag cloud
$output = theme('tagadelic_weighted',tagadelic_get_weighted_tags($vocs));
print $output;
?>is it possible to add some code there to make it respond to SORT order preferences I set in my module. Right now it only sorts by WEIGTH, but I would prefer sorting by title or random...
when I use this code in a block (I don't want to do that), the ordering works...
what's the difference with placing this code snippet just in my page.tpl.php ?
tagadelic_get_weighted_tags($
tagadelic_get_weighted_tags($vocs)does the sorting for you. The order is configurable in the interface.---

that's my point the sorting
that's my point
the sorting doesn't happen when using the code snippet above directly in page.tpl.php
if I put the code in a block, then the sorting DOES work...

Your snippet calls the
Your snippet calls the tagadelic_get_weighted_tags function. In that function we do the ordering. So it should be ordered fine, no matter where you use your snippet.

well, as you can see on
well, as you can see on www.uzegt.be the tagadelic cloud isn't really ordered randomly or by title, but always by weigth. I have my tagadelic preferences set to RANDOM though . . .
so my guess is, there is a difference between putting this code in a block (then the sorting DOES work) and putting the code directly in page.tpl.php (there, voc. terms are shown, but not sorted the way they should...)

Can't seem to find a
ah sorry ;)
Can't seem to find a version in the module files, but in my nl.po file I find this:
tagadelic.module,v 1.19
I downloaded the latest version about one month ago.
but like I said, sorting works in a block, just not outside a block
try pasting the code snippet in your page.tpl.php file, and see if sorting works?

Did somebody test it?
Did somebody test it?
pasting the code in page.tpl.php ? (of course, adjusting the voc number)
I really hope to find a way to fix this. tagadelic clouds ROCK when ordered by random!

Test with front_page module
I get the same problem with using the code with front_page module (that means outside block - it works fine in a block) :-(

Don't give up
Try this:
$tagcloud = "";drupal_set_html_head('<style type="text/css">@import url('.drupal_get_path('module','tagadelic').'/tagadelic.css);</style>');
$vocs[] = 2; // id of the vocabulary of which you want to display a tag cloud
$tagcloud = theme('tagadelic_weighted',tagadelic_sort_tags(tagadelic_get_weighted_tags($vocs)));
print $tagcloud;
It seems you need to use tagadelic_sort_tags function with the code.

Works really well - thanks.
Works really well - thanks. I would like to use this on my home page ie here is a cloud with ALL terms. But I also have mainsections in my site that I would like to nave clouds relating just to that section eg Education section something like
$vocs = array(1,2,3) + types/education;
is this possible?
I am trying to avoid each dept/section having its own vocabulary as occasionaly it might be relevant for one dept to use another depts term
