views cloud module

1. Dependencies: views [需要有views module]
2. Install[安裝] :
   • Copy the views_cloud folder to the modules (sites/all/modules) folder in your installation.[到views cloud project 下載6.x-1.1版本，解壓縮後將views_cloud folder放入sites/all/modules]
   • Enable the module using Administer -> Site Building -> Modules (/admin/build/modules)[在<網站建置><模組><Views>下，確定<views>模組已啟用後，Click Views cloud左的<啟用>]
   • Configure a view to use Views Cloud. Note that Views Cloud comes with two default views that are disabled by default. They may help you get started with your own clouds.
     [用view module做一個Tag Cloud(標韱雲)的view。注意：Views Cloud有兩個設好的view，它們可幫助了瞭解如何做一個Tag Cloud(標韱雲)。]
     • These two sample default views are:
       [這兩個設好的view可用<網站建置><Views><列表>看到--cloud_tags、cloud_user_posts，點其右的編輯可看到這兩個view是如何做的。]
       • cloud_tags: A common tag cloud.[這個tag cloud將所有的term列出來，打http://localhost/drupal1/taxonomy/term可看到，如圖九。]
       • cloud_user_posts: A cloud of user names, weighted by the user's # of posts.[這個tag cloud將使用者依其po文多寡列出，鍵入http://localhost/drupal1/user/7/posts可看到，如圖十。
3. Configuration for a Tag Cloud (most common)
   [做個Tag Cloud(標韱雲)]
   • Create a new View at Administer -> Site Building -> Views (admin/build/views). Give it a name like "tagcloud".
     [Click <網站建置><Views><Add>開始，在<View name>處給個名字，例如YYYYYYYY，<View type>用內容節點]
   • Add a field by clicking the "+" (plus) icon under the "Fields" section. Note that any fields you add will NOT be part of the tag cloud, they are part of the listing the user will see when they click on a tag. You may choose to not add any fields at all but instead change the view "Row Style" to "Node" instead of "Fields".
     [Click< Fields>右的"+"號來增加field，注意：這些filed並不會在tag cloud顯示出來，而是Click某個Tag後顯示。若不加field也可將<Row Style>改為Node--見圖二。]
   • Add an argument by clicking the "+" (plus) icon under the "Arguments" section. Add a "Taxonomy: Term ID" argument. For the "Action to take if argument is not present" option, choose "Summary, sorted ascending". After saving the argument, you may then choose "Cloud" as the summary display style. IMPORTANT NOTE: The view in the preview may not look very much like a "cloud" because the Views Cloud CSS may not be loaded on the page.
     [Click<Arguments>右的"+"號來增加argument，出現<Defaults:Add arguments>畫面後選"Taxonomy: Term ID"並Click<更新>--見圖三(星號處)，接著出現的"Action to take if argument is not present"畫面，選擇"Summary, sorted ascending"並Click<更新>--見圖四(星號處)，接著出現的"Change summary style for argument分類:TermID"，選擇"Cloud"並Click<更新>--見圖五(星號處)，完成後如圖五]
   • Add a filter by clicking the "+" (plus) icon under the "Filters" section. Add the "Taxonomy: Vocabulary" filter, and restrict the list to items within whatever vocabularies you would like the cloud to include.
     [Click<過濾器>右的"+"號來增加filter，出現Default: Add filter畫面選擇"Taxonomy: Vocabulary"並Click<Add>--見圖六(星號處)，接著出現的"Default"Configure 過濾器 分類:vocabulary"畫面，選擇想顯示term的vocabulary，在圖七(星號處)選擇"is one of"--RoadMap、BookRelated、程式開發、討論區，共四個vocabulary，並Click<更新>，如圖七(星號處)。如此就完成了]
   • Add a "Page" display from the left-hand side of the view configuration. Give it a path to where you would like the tag links to direct.
     [加個頁面，見圖二左星號處)]
   • Add a "Block" display from the left-hand side of the view configuration.
     [加個區塊，見圖二左星號處)]
   • Save your view.[Click<儲存>]
   • Enable your new block at Administer -> Site Building -> Blocks (admin/build/block).
     [Click <網站建置><區塊
     >， 在區塊
     YYYYYYYY 右的下拉選單選擇<左欄>，就出現圖一右方的Tag Cloud(標韱雲)]

     注意：若font太大，則可在Click <Argument/Style>(圖五)之後，改<Number of font sizes>、<Font size adjustment>、<Weight to size algorith>--如圖十一。

4. Configuration for a Cloud based on arbitrary integers (Instructions abbreviated, see the instructions above for full steps.)
   [本段不做！]
   1. Create a new View.
   2. Add fields you would like to be in the cloud. Add a field that will be used as the weight for each item (such as number of comments).
   3. Click the "Style" option under the "Basic settings" option and change it to "Cloud".
   4. Create a block display and save your view.
