AJAX Labels with Label Cloud

2008/02/21 |

owing to high demand, I will explain the steps required to integrate AJAX Labels with the immensely popular Phydeaux3's Label Cloud hack.

Note: Please back up your template at three places as a precaution:
a. Before installing Label Cloud
b. Between installation of Label Cloud and AJAX Labels.
c. Before Step 4 below.

1. Your first step is to install Label Cloud. Go to Phydeaux3 and follow the steps that are mentioned there. Please comment in Phydeaux3's blog if you find difficulties in installing that hack. I cannot help you there. If you have already installed Labels Cloud, then move on to the next step.

2. The second step is to install part of my AJAX Labels. Jump to this link and follow all the steps except Step 3 (The optional one)

3. If you have a Labels widget, you probably have to delete it. (Although I'm not sure about that) Do as Phydeaux3 suggests.

4. Search for the following code snippet inside the code you copied from Phydeaux3 for Label Cloud:

a.href = '/search/label/'+encodeURIComponent(t);
and replace it with this:
a.href = 'javascript:getCat("' + encodeURIComponent(t) + '",null)'
I haven't tested this anywhere. I hope this one will work. If it doesn't, please revert back.
