A tag cloud portlet that rotates tags in 3D using a Flash movie
Project description
Introduction
quintagroup.portlet.cumulus is a Plone product that allows you to add tag cloud portlets to your Plone site. Your site’s tags (content categories are used as tags) are displayed using a Flash movie that rotates them in 3D. It works just like a regular tags cloud, but is more visually exciting. This is the WordPress WP-Cumulus plugin ported to Plone as a portlet.
When you add this portlet anywhere in the site it will display all site’s tags. If you have installed QullsEnabled product this portlet will display only blog’s tags when rendered inside blog.
Usage
Install “Tag cloud (cumulus) portlet” with QuickInstaller.
Select Tag Cloud (cumulus) portlet from Add portlet drop-down menu.
Provide your own values for portlet configuration if needed.
Save changes.

FAQ
From what version of WP-Cumulus WordPress plugin this product was ported?
It’s ported from WP-Cumulus 1.20.
Some characters are not showing up
Because of the way Flash handles text, only Latin characters are supported in the current version. This is due to a limitation where in order to be able to animate text fields smoothly the glyphs need to be embedded in the movie. The Flash movie’s source code is available for download through Subversion. Doing so will allow you to create a version for your language. There’s a text field in the root of the movie that you can use to embed more characters. If you change to another font, you’ll need to edit the Tag class as well.
