So I installed MT, I used StyleCatcher to pick a theme. Nice one.
Hang on... All my tag clouds are actually bulleted list without any weighting. Surely there must be a way to fix that?
Looking at the source of the output of the tag cloud (sidebar) widget I saw that the entries have a "taglevel<n>" class on them, but the entry-tag list items don't. First change, in any templates with an entry-tag-list, add the following class to the list entries:
taglevel<$MTTagRank$>
Now to style it. I have used a scale of font sizes from 75% up to 200% with 25% steps for the tag ranks. Other attributes would be easy enough to fix (font-face, color, etc).
Add the following to the styles-site.css template:
.module.module-tag-cloud .module-list, .entry-tags {
list-style: none;
}
.taglevel1 {
display: inline;
background: none;
padding: 0;
font-size: 200%;
}
.taglevel2 {
display: inline;
background: none;
padding: 0;
font-size: 175%;
}
.taglevel3 {
display: inline;
background: none;
padding: 0;
font-size: 150%;
}
.taglevel4 {
display: inline;
background: none;
padding: 0;
font-size: 125%;
}
.taglevel5 {
display: inline;
background: none;
padding: 0;
font-size: 100%;
}
.taglevel6 {
display: inline;
background: none;
padding: 0;
font-size: 75%;
}
