== Category Cloud ==
 
Sorry about not setting up my contact email address on [http://moonfire.us/ moonfire.us], I apparently forgot to finish that last little step before the site went live. Oops. :) It works properly now if you have more questions. I already created an entry for the extension on the MediaWiki site, you can find the extension at [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CategoryCloud Extension:CategoryCloud]. It should be fairly clear on how to use it, but the basic is you create a category that is a parent to all the categories you want in the cloud. Then, point to that using:
 
<pre><category-cloud category="MyTopLevelCategory"></category-cloud></pre>
 
And from there, everything should work magically. If you have any questions, feel free try contact@moonfire.us, my ISP says it is working properly now (that I set it up).

::::GPL just means you need to post your changes to the plugin if you make any. I just like to see what people do to my code and sometimes I roll it back in into the primary branch. If it is a problem, I can switch to MIT license, which I'm considering. -- [[User:DylanMoonfire|DylanMoonfire]] 10:49, 6 February 2007 (CST)
:::::I personally don't see the problem here. If Mercifull decides to modify this thing and put it up on BSWiki, the GPL says he has to release his modified version under the GPL as well, meaning he has to publish the source code. Assuming Mercifull has no problem with that, he can just put it up at [[Extension:CategoryCloud]] and be done with it. Hell, he could even copy&paste the Extension:CategoryCloud page from MediaWiki. For more info on the GPL [http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html go here]. (We're dealing with Freedom 3 here.) --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]] 13:36, 6 February 2007 (CST)
I don't know of the status here, but I've uploaded a new version of the plugin at the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CategoryCloud Extension:CategoryCloud] page on MediaWiki. It fixes a couple of bugs and adds a pfunc version. Cheers!

I just disabled the emails. :) Everything should be perfect. Lots to catch up on in the forum. Last time you were there, 200 users.. maybe. Now we get 20 new members a day and 50 on epiosde airing days. Shane (talk) 14:17, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
I'll catchup on the forum at the weekend. I told you all it would be a success :P. I wont be very active here on the wiki though until the first episode is aired in the uk next week though. I am too concerned about being spoiled lol. --Mercifull (Talk/Contribs) 14:38, 10 April 2008 (UTC)Reply[reply]
