I have an idea but I don’t know enough PHP to implement it!
Can someone mod the TagCloud script to be page spaciffic and output Meta keywords/phrases automatically?

Just an idea!

Hello,
I’m having the following error :
<sup>« MODx Parse Error »
MODx encountered the following error while attempting to parse the requested resource:
« PHP Parse Error »

Looks like maybe you don’t yet have any tags to process, and the script doesn’t have a trap for that circumstance.

Thanks for your answer but i dont understand.
How come i dont have any tag to process ?
Arent they supposed to be automatically generated ?
My site has lots of text content so i dont get it.

Any idea on how to work this out ?

Hi, I think I have noticed a minor bug with TagCloud.

I am using it on a website with Friendly URLs.
Tags page links are also displayed with Ditto.

Ditto generates URLs for tag sort pages that end up with .html?tags=Part1+Part2&start=0
For the same pages, TagCloud generates URLs that end up with .html&tags=Part1+Part2

This works, but creates different URLs for the same documents, which is not very good for SEO.
I have sorted it out on my website but you should consider modifying the URL construction for websites using SEF URLs.

Hi!

I have also a minor problem with tagcloud, as it simply does not work as I have imagined. I click on a tag in the cloud, and it passes the search expression to the search "snippet", and thats all. Is this normal functionality or a bug? How should it work normally? Should it display search results in a page or just pass the tag-expression into he search textfield and the user has to push the search button? The optimal result I’d like the search results to display instantly. Is this possible with tagcloud?
I am using AjaxSearch for searching the site.
Thx in advance!

Hi Folks,

Any solution for my problem?

I want to use this plugin on a site with modx version 0.9.6.1p2, but I get this error:



I get this error every time with and without parameters in the snippet call. Does somebody have this snippet working on a 0.9.6.x installation?

I personally don’t use this snippet, but this might help you...
