Any experience feedback with Blogger

14 years ago

Hi,

I tried to use Tagul on the RSS feed from my blog (http://guillaumegarcia13.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default) but it seems to parse all the text and not only tags (Tagul should only consider <category> tag of the RSS feed, shouldn't it?).
As a result, I got a sheer number of tags (644) whereas I should have only 17 or so.

Got to "warn" you, it's a French blog so apostrophe... might cause Tagul a little problem?

Any similar issue?

Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Guillaume

By design Tagul considers all the text. In order to get a tag cloud based only on the categories you should provide API xml that looks like this:

<tags>
    <tag angle="0"
         color="3488BF"
         font="Linux Libertine Regular"
         url="http://tagul.com"
         weight="130">Tagul</tag>
    <tag url="http://google.com/search?q=money" weight="18">money</tag>
    <tag url="http://google.com/search?q=tag" weight="12">tag</tag>
    <tag url="http://google.com/search?q=cloud" weight="7">cloud</tag>
    <tag url="http://google.com/search?q=html" weight="23">html</tag>
    <tag url="http://google.com/search?q=web" weight="21">web</tag>
</tags>

Later I will make the seamless integration with most popular blogging platforms like blogger, wordpress, etc. and then you won't need providing API xml.

P.S. It should be working fine with french language. Please let me know if something goes wrong.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for your quick reply!
I managed to make it work with the API xml of yours. ;-)

Thanks again.
