Global Tag Cloud in Side Bar or Anywhere v1.03 for vB 3.7.x

What this plugin does:

This plugin lets you call the tag cloud on any page. We wanted a tag cloud in a side column on our forum, and also the freedom to call it from within any template.

Live Demo:

You can view the plugin in action on AdminFusion

Installation Instructions:

1. Login in to the AdminCP -> Plugins and Products -> Manage Products
2. Click the Add/Import Product link at the bottom of the page and browse to the plugin's xml file.
3. Add the following variable where ever you want the tag cloud to appear:

$vbcloud

4. If you want to display just the cloud (i.e. without the category) open up the tag_cloud_search template and replace everything with the code below:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != tags">
$cloud[links]
<else />
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
    <td class="tcat">
        <div class="smallfont" style="float:$stylevar[align=right]"><phrase 1="$cloud[count]">$vbphrase[these_are_the_x_most_used_thread_tags]</phrase></div>
        $vbphrase[tag_cloud]
    </td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td class="alt1" style="text-align:justify">$cloud[links]</td>
</tr>
</table>
</if>
