This snippet is for creating a function that customizes the parameters of the built in tag cloud in wordpress.
The main change I wanted to make was to adjust the size of the tags to remove any change in size due to popularity of use, potentially also change the order based on name rather then count. I also included snippets for displaying the tagcloud as a list and/or based on an individual taxonomy.
See the comment in the code for more detail.
For additional customizable permeates, see the codex links under References.
#Default Usage
<?php $args = array(
'smallest' => 8,
'largest' => 22,
'unit' => 'pt',
'number' => 45,
'format' => 'flat',
'separator' => "\n",
'orderby' => 'name',
'order' => 'ASC',
'exclude' => null,
'include' => null,
'topic_count_text_callback' => default_topic_count_text,
'link' => 'view',
'taxonomy' => 'post_tag',
'echo' => true,
'child_of' => null, // see Note!
); ?>
The child_of Key is not a direct part of the Array in wp_tag_cloud, but because this function uses wp_parse_args() and get_terms(), you can use all Array Keys used by get_terms()!
