Implement tag cloud is easy in Drupal. You can find the module called Tagadelic in the my previous post.

But the term path inside the tag cloud is always fixed as default which is taxonomy/term/[tid]. I tried to override it by the Entity Path module but no luck. Luckily i find a workaround to override it. Actually Tagadelic is not just a simple Drupal module but also a API system. The following theme function theme_tagadelic_weighted() determines the term path in Tagadelic.

  • eureka_js.info
  • eureka_js.module
