No this isn’t a fandangle Web 2.0 thingamy…oh, yeah it is actually. Bring the bloggy goodness of a “coloured and weighted” cloud of your categories. You can add either a ‘weighted’ cloud, ie. the more posts in a category the bigger the text link, or a ‘coloured’ cloud, ie. the more posts the lighter in colour the text link becomes. But thats not all, should you want to you can turn both options on for the full Web 2.0 effect of a weighted and coloured cloud.
UCC has been re-written since version 1 and is now compatible witht the recently released Wordpress 2.1. You can see a living example of the ‘coloured’ cloud in action in my sidebar on the right, and an example of the ‘weighted and coloured’ cloud can be found on my Archives page.

Hello Dean,
I’ve downloaded and activated the plugin. I’ve also pasted the code on my sidebar.php. However, I get a syntax error message. Am I supposed to modify the code?
Ok, I’ve just checked the code and it was displygin the wrong type of double quotes around some of the variables, which is what would have been causing problems when you copied the code.
I have now fixed that, so hopefully you should be ok once you copy the corrected code from the plugins page.

If you have any further problems, just let me know.
Brilliant! It works perfectly. Thanks Dean!
thanks Dean,
it works on my WP with dark background,
but.. does it works also on light background?
i mean setting lightest and dankest color inverted?
because now i have the dark color for frequent tags …
UCC 2.0 does not seem to work with Wordpress 2.2.2.
Ever since I upgraded to WP2.2.2, new tags are not added anymore to the tag cloud. So all tags that are in the tag cloud are those from the posts before I upgraded to the new WP.
Are you planning to release an update? Thank you for your time and help!
Hi Dean
The plugin doesn’t work with WordPress 2.3. Will you plan to release an upgrade?
