Description

Imagine that you have a free tagging taxonomy that spans many content types.

It would be useful to be able to create a tag cloud for each content type, as the cloud most probably would be different.

I'm not sure but can tagadelic do this?

Why not create a different vocabulary for each content type then?
It will allow you to have tagclouds for each content type.

In you example a tag could be linked to multiple content types. How would you know in which tagcloud to show it then.
You could ofcourse show the tag in multiple tagclouds, but that's not really different then using multiple vocabularies.

Unless you're trying to do something special, i don't see why it shouldn't work.

That would have been the simple way to do it, but if you have two content types and you want and aggregated view of both types it won't work.

Water in a food taxonomy have have id 100 and water in a elements taxonomy may have id 200, so it's a case of similar<>similar since each term is actually a seperate entry.

Hence the only way to get an aggregated view of ALL water related items is to use the same taxonomy entries.

Corrections and suggestions welcome.

+1 to this feature!

I tried using the "Views Tagadelic" as a workaround, since you can filter Views by content type. But this just breaks the block by returning no tags at all.

I used Views Tagadelic, and date range as well, to get dynamic cloud that changes according to a newsfeed aggregator output. Works like dream.
