Can you list out all the parameters we can edit when using the short code feature? i.e. to exclude a category do I use:

And what about minimum posts, etc.

Thanks!

Hi Hugh,

Great plugin! I would love to have a version with “tags”.

Hi Eve You can call it via the WordPress do_shortcode function. Have a look at the codex page for details such as echo do_shortcode('[category_clouds]'); Hugh

any way to do this with a php call?

where I need it in the sidebar is not a widget area, for now i am going to try to use your php call above and see if that works…

Hi Robin

I’ve just updated the plugin to version 2 which now supports using the plugin as a shortcode for use in a page or post.

Have a look at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/category-clouds-widget/faq/ for examples of how to use it.

Hi Hugh,
Any advice to call this plugin from a wordpress page? as my current theme doesn’t have any sidebar widget.
Cheers,
Robin

Hi Roman

Hi Hugh,
Just wanted to say that it’s a great pluggin. Have just installed it at it works fine. I was desperate looking for just this widget, as I need to eliminate some categories to my cloud. Thanks and great work

These are the error codes I got when I tried using the plugin today.

Warning: Wrong parameter count for max() in /home/***/wp-content/plugins/category-clouds-widget/category_clouds.php on line 74

Warning: Wrong parameter count for min() in /home/***/wp-content/plugins/category-clouds-widget/category_clouds.php on line 74

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/***/wp-content/plugins/category-clouds-widget/category_clouds.php on line 82

Hopefully you can figure out what the issues are. I am using 3.01.
