Hey,

sorry for spaming, but a few weeks ago i found a tw5 somewhere that was prepared for managing bookmarks. at the first page there was kind of a tag cloud. I already looked my browser history up and down, but i couldn't find it :/ maybe someone knows what i mean and could post a link here?

thanks for ur help guys

I am very behind on things that have been made. I don't know of any that have a tag cloud. I did make a bookmarks plugin you can see it here.

Hi

I think you might be thinking of this old project of mine

If you can use a simple tag cloud this works for me
---------------------------------------------------------------
<style>
.cloud { margin-right: 7px; }
.cloud .tc-tag-list-item { margin-right: 0; }
</style>
<$list filter="[tags[]!is[system]sort[title]]">
<span class="cloud">
<$transclude tiddler="$:/core/ui/TagTemplate"/>
<$count filter="[all[current]tagging[]]"/>
</span>
</$list>
----------------------------------------------------

Wow, awesome. Thanks guys, it was David's project. The "tagcloud" i mean was this one http://www.giffmex.org/experiments/davesbookmarks.html#Helpful%20bookmarks

@David: thanks :)

Maybe the naming "tag cloud" was a bit unduly. TiddlyWiker, when i use ur code, is it right, that there is the number next to the tagname? Would be awesome if someone has a real tag cloud with various sizes of the tag-names depending on the count of the tag.

Dear Hans,

Since I have zero coding skills all I can do is cut and paste what code snippets I
find. Thanks for the cloud example in Davids project, I will add it to  my collection.

Yes, the numbers in my example refer to the number of tiddlers with that particular tag.
Your example without numbers is also interesting.  But I know what you are referring
to with the variable sized tag-names.  I am sure I have seen it somewhere in a tiddly wiki..... but where? Could it be someone with the right skills could adapt it for tiddlywiki if it hasn't already
been done?


Regards,

You can probably use css to change the tag size based on the number of tiddlers. You may need a javascript macro or widget for it though. I think someone (Tobias?) made one.

Remember this old post (https://groups.google.com/d/msg/Tiddlywiki/cVh1Hec54BU/CAZ4AsgYBAAJ) and this one (https://groups.google.com/d/msg/Tiddlywiki/7uPGUJjGtWE/9RLngfgKAgAJ), and search other thread, but don't find anythings. Even I would love to see this stuff in my TW's (here a standard example : https://help.alwaysdata.com/)

Finally I have a (hopefully) simple question, but I'm stuck ^^: how do I use TidMarks as server/node-version? I tried to import all changed shadowtiddlers, but it doesn't seem to work. Is it because tidmarks is based on 5.0.13 and i have 5.1.11?

The version  may be why. There were some big changes with 5.1.0 that can cause problems with backwards compatibility. Message names are one thing that changed and css class name are another. You could try going through the tiddlers and making sure all message names start with tm- (I think it was tv- before but I am not certain. And all css classes that start with tw- should be changed to start with tc-. One again, I am not certain if it's tw-, hopefully someone else can confirm. 

There may be other differences but those two are the most common problems I have seen with older modifications.

Hi Hans,

As Jed says, but also some of the buttons use an old version of maketid. Tidmarks is much older than the wonderful action widgets.

In the old version af lot of the core tiddlers are overwritten and will have to be changed for use in version 5.1.11. It is hardly a good idea just to import them, as they have also changed since then.
