Creates a function that can be placed in a wordpress template for a category cloud that exists without the requirement of widgets or a widget ready theme.<\/p>\n\n

I created this plugin after I started using a single column theme that is not widget ready. I found that there were multiple plugin widgets available, but no plugin that would allow me to just place a php function into my theme to display a category cloud.<\/p>\n\n

Some ideas for oter uses of this plugin:<\/p>\n\n

    \n
  1. Install WP-Sticky and Exec-PHP. Create a Sticky post which will stay at the top of your page and type the php code for this plugin in the post. Now you have a Category Cloud that stays at the top of your page.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

    Requirements<\/h3>\n\n
      \n
    1. Wordpress 2.x<\/li>\n
    2. Web server that supports PHP<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

      Upgrade<\/h3>\n\n
        \n
      1. Deactivate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n
      2. Delete the previous no-widget-category-cloud<\/code> folder from the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
      3. Upload the new no-widget-category-cloud<\/code> folder to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
      4. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

        Usage<\/h3>\n\n
        <?php nw_catcloud(small_size,big_size,size_unit,align,orderby,order,min_posts,hide_empty,title); ?>\n\nsmall_size = font size, integer (default 75)\nbig_size = font size, integer (default 200)\nsize_unit = %, px, pt (default %)\nalign = left, right, center, justify (default left)\norderby = count, name (default name)\norder = asc, desc (default asc)\nmin_posts = minimum number of posts, integer (default 1)\nhide_empty = 0,1 (default 1, 1=yes,0=no)\ntitle = string (This can contain HTML to format the title) \n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
          \n
        1. Open the theme files, in your favorite editor, that you wish to add the category cloud to (index.php, single.php, page.php, etc...).<\/li>\n
        2. Add a line that looks like above.  You can also use the defaults by not specifiying anything between the parentheses. See example 2 below.<\/li>\n
        3. Enjoy.<\/li>\n
        4. As I mentioned in the description you can also use this plugin with Exec-PHP and it would make a nice combo with WP-Sticky.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
          Examples<\/h4>\n\n
            \n
          1. <?php nw_catcloud(75,200,'%','left','name','asc',1,1,'<h2 class=\"posttitle\" style=\"margin-bottom:0px;\">Categories<\/h2>'); ?><\/code><\/li>\n
          2. <?php nw_catcloud(); ?><\/code><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
            To Do<\/h3>\n\n
              \n
            1. I am open to suggestions.<\/li>\n
            2. I am sure I will think of something.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
              Credit<\/h3>\n\n
              I've got to give credit where credit is due.  And that credit goes to Lee Kelleher and his Category Cloud Widget.  I used a lot of his code in this plugin modifying it where needed to make it work the way I wanted.<\/p>\n\n\n
                \n
              1. Upload the no-widget-category-cloud<\/code> folder to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
              2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
