<p>Creates a function that can be placed in a wordpress template for a category cloud that exists without the requirement of widgets or a widget ready theme.</p>
<p>I created this plugin after I started using a single column theme that is not widget ready.  I found that there were multiple plugin widgets available, but no plugin that would allow me to just place a php function into my theme to display a category cloud.</p>
<p>Some ideas for oter uses of this plugin:</p>
<ol>
<li>Install WP-Sticky and Exec-PHP.  Create a Sticky post which will stay at the top of your page and type the php code for this plugin in the post.  Now you have a Category Cloud that stays at the top of your page.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Requirements</h3>
<ol>
<li>WordPress 2.x</li>
<li>Web server that supports PHP</li>
</ol>
<h3>Upgrade</h3>
<ol>
<li>Deactivate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress</li>
<li>Delete the previous <code>no-widget-category-cloud</code> folder from the <code>/wp-content/plugins/</code> directory</li>
<li>Upload the new <code>no-widget-category-cloud</code> folder to the <code>/wp-content/plugins/</code> directory</li>
<li>Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress</li>
</ol>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<pre><code><?php nw_catcloud(small_size,big_size,size_unit,align,orderby,order,min_posts,hide_empty,title); ?>

small_size = font size, integer (default 75)
big_size = font size, integer (default 200)
size_unit = %, px, pt (default %)
align = left, right, center, justify (default left)
orderby = count, name (default name)
order = asc, desc (default asc)
min_posts = minimum number of posts, integer (default 1)
hide_empty = 0,1 (default 1, 1=yes,0=no)
title = string (This can contain HTML to format the title) 
</code></pre>
<ol>
<li>Open the theme files, in your favorite editor, that you wish to add the category cloud to (index.php, single.php, page.php, etc…).</li>
<li>Add a line that looks like above.  You can also use the defaults by not specifiying anything between the parentheses. See example 2 below.</li>
<li>Enjoy.</li>
<li>As I mentioned in the description you can also use this plugin with Exec-PHP and it would make a nice combo with WP-Sticky.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Examples</h4>
<ol>
<li><code><?php nw_catcloud(75,200,'%','left','name','asc',1,1,'<h2 class="posttitle" style="margin-bottom:0px;">Categories</h2>'); ?></code></li>
<li><code><?php nw_catcloud(); ?></code></li>
</ol>
<h3>To Do</h3>
<ol>
<li>I am open to suggestions.</li>
<li>I am sure I will think of something.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Credit</h3>
<p>I’ve got to give credit where credit is due.  And that credit goes to Lee Kelleher and his Category Cloud Widget.  I used a lot of his code in this plugin modifying it where needed to make it work the way I wanted.</p>
