 * Hello,
    I need to help with the tag.php I want that my tags appear in an original
   way (tags I use most bigger than others especially). A good idea of i want in
   my web site is here: [http://www.presse-citron.net/](http://www.presse-citron.net/)(
   in the footer).
 * In this web site ([http://wpchannel.com/comment-inserer-nuage-tag-blog-wordpress/#comment-29426](http://wpchannel.com/comment-inserer-nuage-tag-blog-wordpress/#comment-29426))
   the webmaster gives the code to have original presentation. But, when i copy 
   the code in my tag.php nothing happens.
 * The code by default of tag.php is:
 * <?php
    ?> <?php get_header(); ?> <div id=”content” > <h2 class=”page-title”><?
   php printf( __( ‘Tag Archives: %s’, ‘max-magazine’ ), ‘<span>’ . single_tag_title(”,
   false ) . ‘</span>’ ); ?></h2> <?php $tag_description = tag_description(); if(!
   empty( $tag_description ) ) echo apply_filters( ‘tag_archive_meta’, ‘<div class
   =”archive-meta”>’ . $tag_description . ‘</div>’ ); ?> <?php get_template_part(‘
   includes/content’); ?> </div> <?php get_sidebar(); ?> <?php get_footer(); ?>
 * So, thanks for your help!

 * the tag cloud from your first link seems to be the default tag cloud widget;
   
   the second link does mention the tag cloud parameters, but it is showing the 
   tag description code.
 * > I want that my tags appear in an original way
 * where exactly?
 * to show the tag clound within a template, you can use `wp_tag_cloud()` [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_tag_cloud](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_tag_cloud)

 * Ok, so I re-explain (sorry for my bad english) to be sure you’re undestrand well.
 * In this website [http://www.presse-citron.net](http://www.presse-citron.net) (
   which is a website very popular in france about new technolgies), i found that
   the tag cloud on the footer is original. And i want the same for my personal 
   website (which is not yet on line because i work with WampServer in local).
 * So, in the theme i choose (Max Magazine), there is the possibility to edit the
   file tag.php
    On my website, my tag cloup appears in a column at the right of
   my posts. But actually, they are not like in the site presse-citron.net (they
   are simply wroten without large et big words).
 * In an other web site ([http://wpchannel.com/comment-inserer-nuage-tag-blog-wordpress/#comment-29426](http://wpchannel.com/comment-inserer-nuage-tag-blog-wordpress/#comment-29426))
   the webmaster gives the code to have original presentation (notably like on presse-
   citron.net). But, when i copy the code in my tag.php nothing happens. This code
   is:
 *     ```
       <?php wp_tag_cloud(''); ?>
       <?php if ( function_exists('wp_tag_cloud') ) : ?>
       <li>
       <h2>Nuage de tags</h2>
       <ul>
       <?php wp_tag_cloud('smallest=8&largest=22'); ?>
       </ul>
       </li>
       <?php endif; ?>
       ```

 * you posted code is correct; however, the tags are getting different sizes according
   to in how many posts they are used.
    if you have a new site, it is likely that
   a tag is used only once in a post, and therefore the tags in the tag cloud will
   have all the same size.

 * Ok 🙂
    But I’ve used in my posts certains same tags. So to me, these tags should
   be larger than others. Perhaps in the code <?php wp_tag_cloud(”); ?> i need to
   put my tags in ” ? No ?

 * can you post a link to your site to illustrate how your tag cloud is looking 
   right now?
