Title: doctor cloud
Post by: xmanhattan on December 21, 2008, 17:08:15

Hello all,

Well I have started writing and adding content to my Greek blog.  Yes I know I can't write properly in Greek to save my life but anyway...

I have created a copy of doctor cloud set the language for Greek, the English one is set for English.
The Greek blog is using the section, category, content logic and not the eblog.
I have set it to use a section number 18 and set no cache and repeat to 1 but nothing shows up.

Here is a part of what my section looks like and below that a part of the content items.

Am I doing something wrong (besides writing in Greek)?

Doctor Cloud is for eBlog posts, not for content items.
Normal Elxis sections, categories and content items have nothing to do with eBlog and Doctor Cloud. They do not have tags and they are not blogs.
You can use Doctor Cloud for eBlog's blogs and you dont have to make a copy of it as Doctor cloud loads automatically the proper tags based on the current language.

Datahell,

Sorry I forgot that.  If you come out with an update for doctor cloud, I think that it needs that note in the Info tooltip.

Okay, is there a tag cloud for the normal blog because I thought that I saw elxis.org using a tag cloud somewhere.

There is no "normal blog", I have explained you this several times.
eBlog is blog, anything else is not.
You still confuse the sections/categories blog STYLE display with the (e)blog as a feature.
When you set to display a section or category in a blog style this does not mean that they are blog but they LOOK LIKE blog as the articles are being displayed one bellow the other and not using a table view. This is just a display style, not a real blog.

A real blog is eBlog, ONLY, and only eBlog has tags.

BTW I saw in a site of yours that you use huge tags in blogs. This is totally wrong. Tags are like "keywords", you should never add a tag having more than 2 words (I recommend one word per tag).

Example: "american auto industry unemployment mis-management unions"
This is not a tag!

Datahell,

Okay, I agree that it can get confusing.  I am not thinking of the blog style though.

I will use your comments regarding tag lengths and adjust.
