Oh, that’s cool! Nice work. 🙂

Doenst seem to work in WP 1.2 Error: Division by zero or something.

Warning: Division by zero in /home/parrfol/public_html/thoughts/wp-content/plugins/weighted_categories.php
on line 34

There is the error I get. Let me know if you fix it. I would really like to impliment this into my site. I think its cool!

Here’s some examples of blogs using the plugin: somefoolwitha.com, sunfox.org

Implemented it myself a couple of days back. Love it. Cheers!

I still cant get you code to work. I do have a ton of plugs and hacks in my version of wordpress. This may have something to do with it. However, I did find this which similar and not as nice as yours but works on my wordpress. I’ll probably switch to yours once I upgrade when to WP1.3; only when the final release comes out. Take a look:

Hi!

I’m trying to use this plugin on a WP 1.5 install (1.5b1) and it seems to work fine for 3/4 categories, but the last one’s link doesn’t work.

This is the page: http://www.higgs-family.net/~jeremy/beta/archives

While all the others point to the proper URL, e.g. http://www.higgs-family.net/~jeremy/beta/archives/category/blah/, one category, called “Uncategorized” simply points to http://www.higgs-family.net/~jeremy/beta/Uncategorized

Does anyone know why this might occur?

Thanks a lot!

Doesn’t work for me–at all. $cats appears to be totally empty after list_cats() returns.

Changing the first line to $cats = list_cats(1, ”, ‘name’, ‘asc’, ”, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, ”, ”, $exclude, 0); returns some cats….yay…

Like the way your blog is set up … I just got a type blog and I’m still trying to figure it out.

WordPress Heat Map plugin

The WordPress Heat Map plugin provides you with two new template tags for displaying a heat map (aka weighted list) of your categories and your monthly archives. Activity in any given category or month can be indicated by varying font sizes, color inte…

It’s working on my site. I am however experiancing the same problem as Jeremy, did anyone figure this out?

Thanks.

I was having the same problem with all but the last category working, so I made the following fix:

if (strstr($catlink, “http:”) == FALSE) {
print “$catname n”;
} else {
print “$catname n”;
}

My categories are located in /blog/category, so I hard-coded it.

The code didn’t show up the way it should have, so if anyone wants to know how to fix this, email me at tparlin [at] thoughtmechanics [dot] com.

Great plugin! I use this with cat2tag… good combo.

I did, however, find a bug. After you explode $cats, the last element in the array is blank and not needed. This causes the last category in the list to have a bogus URL. To fix this, I added array_pop($cats) immediately after $cats is exploded. This gets rid of that last array entry.

Thanks for putting this together!

BTW, if you want to see the problem yourself. Go to your archive’s page, then click on the last category in your tag cloud.

The latent OpenURL idea has cystallized as COinS 1.0. The major change from earlier proposals is to hide the latent OpenURL in the title attribute of a span tag, rather than in the href of an anchor tag. Accordingly, I’ve updated the little WordPress plug-in I wrote to insert OpenURLs in WordPress postings. A sample link follows: [] (as before, you won’t see anything between the square brackets unless you have an activator). The plugin inserts a comment in the span tag containing a link to the spec. Download the new version here.

Rich Manalang: I implemented the fix you suggested for Therons Popular Tags plugin, it works. But I also found that after doing this, the permalink is being displayed with the cad id rather than the tag. Any idea why this is happening.cheers.

Nice Site!

yes, i saw the same problem when i implemeneted it. any solutions?

The same problem (last category not display correctly) happen too when you have the category name other than English (in my case, Vietnamese). In my case: I have categories whose names are in Vietnamese. However, I also set the “category slug” as an English only characters. With this setup, all the link will work, except for the last one got by this plugin. Any solution yet?
