New in version 0.6

There is a small new global configuration option "Heading size for widget title". You can choose a size from h1 to h6.

New in version 0.5

It's done! Version 0.5 comes with much new features. At first a list of the new features and than I'll explain how to use them.

1. Instances: now you're able to create multiple configurations
2. Shortcode: use [newtagcloud] and [newtagclund int=<ID>]
3. Filter: <!--new-tag-cloud--> and <!--new-tag-cloud-<ID>--> are availible, but you should use the shortcode instead
4. PHP: <?php newtagcloud(); ?> and <?php newtagcloud(<ID>) can be used directly in your theme files

OK, now lets look how it works.

Instances

This is the new way to create multiple configurations. All "layout specific options" are stored in an instance. Each instance has an ID to wich you can referr. This feature allow you the place different tag clouds on your blog.

Shortcode

That's the new way to place tag clouds in posts or pages. Simply add [newtagcloud] or [newtagclound int=<ID>] to ypur post or page and the tag cloud will be shown there. If you use [newtagcloud] the instances set as "Default instance for shortcode" is used. With int= you can specifiy an instance or example if you need two or more different tag clouds generate via shortcode.

Thanks to Christian for the idea and code.

Filter

This is the old way to place a tag cloud in a post or a page. It works in the same way as the shortcode. You should replace the filter with a shortcode and disable the option "Enable filtering of because it slows down your blog, the shortcode does not!

PHP

If you use New Tag Cloud directly in your theme because your theme don't support widgets, you can still use <?php newtagcloud() ?>. New: set an instance ID as parameter and the configuration of this instance will be used.

Misc

Oh, I forgot it: now you can change the sort order: by name or by count. Also the known problem with mixing tags starting with capitals and tags starting with lower cases is solved ;-)

I hope you like the new version.

New in version 0.4

Now the plugin supports a filter. So you are able to place "<!--new-tag-cloud-->" in a post or on a page and the tag cloud will be shown there.

Thanks to Christian for providing the code for this feature!

Also there is a small bug fix. Know it's possible to change to option 'CSS size type'.

New in version 0.3

• New way to configure the plugin (Settings > New Tag Cloud)
• Modify html code before and after the entries
• Tags of not publish posts are ignored

New in version 0.2

You can use New Tag Cloud directly from your theme (maybe in footer or if your sidebar don't supports widgets).

Thanks to tekanji for testing ;-)
