This is the highly configurable tag cloud widget, the main features for this plugin is:
<ul>
<li>All, single author or multiple authors per cloud</li>
<li>Select which taxonomies or post types to show tags for</li>
<li>Rules for which posts to include when fetching tags</li>
<li>Inclusion/exclusion functions</li>
<li>A bunch of ordering, coloring and styling options</li>
<li>Multiple strategies for selecting terms with the option to <a href="https://github.com/rickard2/utcw/blob/master/STRATEGY.md" rel="nofollow ugc">create your own</a>. Built in strategies for most popular, random, recently added, from current list of posts</li>
<li>Short code and API for developers</li>
</ul>
The development of this plugin has stopped. I will make sure that the basic features still work with upcoming WordPress versions, but no new features or changes will be made.
The <a href="https://github.com/rickard2/utcw" rel="nofollow ugc">code is available on github</a> and if you’re in need of new features, you’re welcome to submit a pull request for it.

<h3>Theme integration / Shortcode</h3>
You can integrate the widget within your own theme even if you’re not using standard WordPress widgets. Just install and load the plugin as described and use the function
<pre><code><?php do_utcw($args); ?>
</code></pre>
…with <code>$args</code> being a array of <code>key => value</code> pairs for the options you would like to set. For example if you’d like to change the title of the widget:
<pre><code><?php
$args = array( "title" => "Most awesome title ever" );

do_utcw( $args );
</code></pre>
To use multiple configuration options just separate them with a comma:
<pre><code><?php
$args = array( "title" => "Most awesome title ever", "max" => 10 );

do_utcw( $args );
</code></pre>
If you’re not able to change your theme you can also use the shortcode <code>[utcw]</code> anywhere in your posts or pages. You can pass any of the settings along with the shortcode in the format of <code>key="value"</code>, for instance if you’d like to change the widget title:
<pre><code>[utcw title="Most awesome title ever"]
</code></pre>
The plugin also uses a couple of filters for you to be able to alter the output. These are documented in the <a href="https://github.com/rickard2/utcw/blob/master/FILTERS.md" rel="nofollow ugc">filters documentation at GitHub</a>.
As of version 2.6 you can create custom selection strategies, more information can be found in the <a href="https://github.com/rickard2/utcw/blob/master/STRATEGY.md" rel="nofollow ugc">strategy documentation at GitHub</a>
<h3>Configuration</h3>
All the configuration options can be found in the <a href="https://github.com/rickard2/utcw/blob/master/CONFIG.md" rel="nofollow ugc">configuration documentation at GitHub</a>.
<h3>Breaking changes in version 2.0</h3>
<ul>
<li>Tags lists with named tags will not work in version 2.0, only tags lists with IDs.</li>
<li>The configuration option for text case has been renamed from case to text_transform</li>
<li>The styles for links aren’t marked as <code>!important</code> in the CSS longer, this might change the cloud presentation in some cases</li>
<li>The shortcode and theme integration function call no longer accepts the widget arguments <code>before_widget</code>, <code>after_widget</code>, <code>before_title</code> and <code>after_title</code></li>
</ul>
<h3>Thanks</h3>

<ul>
<li>Andreas Bogavcic</li>
<li>Fabian Reck</li>
</ul>
With your help this list will hopefully grow in the future 😉

Ultimate Tag Cloud Widget

Seems to be broken

This plugin aims to be the most configurable tag cloud widget out there, able to suit all your weird tag cloud needs.

<h4>Compatibility</h4>
This ACF field type is compatible with: 
* ACF 5 
* ACF 6
This is an add on plugin for Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) 5 or 6. This plugin will not work if ACF is not installed and active. This plugin may work in a limited capacity if the repeater field is not avilable.
Ever needed to give a client a way to edit the appearence of text without wanting to give them a full blown WYSIWYG editor? Need something less than a WYSYWIG but more than a text or textarea field that you can configure the way you need it to work with the features you need it to have?
This add on for ACF5 adds <a href="https://github.com/yabwe/medium-editor" rel="nofollow ugc">MediumEditor</a> as an ACF field. 
Each field instance is configurable, and each field instance has its own settings. Many of the options 
available in MediumEditor are supported, including the creation of custom buttons using <a href="https://github.com/arcs-/MediumButton" rel="nofollow ugc">MediumButton</a>. It is also possible using either a configuration 
setting or a filter to alter the MediumEditor Theme. Some of the available options are covered below. 
For more information on MediumEditor and MediumButton, see the description of these libaries at the links provided.
For more information see 
<a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/medium-editor-field-for-acf/other_notes" rel="ugc">Other Notes</a> and 
<a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/medium-editor-field-for-acf/screenshots" rel="ugc">Screenshots</a>
Medium Editor needs your help!. This plugin depends <a href="https://github.com/yabwe/medium-editor" rel="nofollow ugc">Medium Editor</a> which is the JavaScript package that powers this ACF Add On. I do not maintain this package. This pluig is simply an implementation of it for ACF. <a href="https://github.com/yabwe/medium-editor/issues/1503" rel="nofollow ugc">Medium Editor is looking for contributors</a>. Without people to help maintain and improve it Medium Editor could fade away and if that happens this plugin will also no longer be possible.
<h3>Github Repository</h3>
This plugin is also on GitHub 
<a href="https://github.com/Hube2/acf-medium-editor" rel="nofollow ugc">https://github.com/Hube2/acf-medium-editor</a>
<h3>Field Settings</h3>
The following is an explanation of the fields, not including the ones that should be self explanatory.
Buttons: These are the buttons that are included in <a href="https://github.com/yabwe/medium-editor#buttons" rel="nofollow ugc">MediumEditor</a>. 
Select the buttons you want to include in each editor instance.
Custom Buttons: This is the main reason that I created this plugin. This field supports adding 
custom buttons using <a href="https://github.com/arcs-/MediumButton#html-buttons" rel="nofollow ugc">MediumButton</a>. 
Please note that if any of the main fields (Name, Label, HTML Tag) are empty that the entire 
button will be ignored.
Name: This is then name of the button and will be used when instaniating the MediumButton Object. 
The button name must be unique and cannot be one of the buttons already included in MediumEditor, a 
button of the same name as one of the standard button in Medium Editor will not override that button 
if it is also included. I do not know what the effects of custom characters in the name will be. 
Please report any bugs and I will look into adding something to clean up characters or find some other work-around for any that cause errors.
Label: This is the label that will appear in the button bar. This field allows HTML. 
Please make sure it is valid html (I do not validate the html you enter). Invalid markup will probably 
break the button bar or the entire admin. MediumButton also supports using icons for buttons. 
If you want to use icons in your buttons then it is your responsibility to make sure the icon font set is 
available for use in the admin of your site.
HTML Tag: Enter the html tag that will be inserted by this button. Only non-empty html tags are allowed. 
Most valid HTML tags are supported. If an invalid HTML tag is entered then the button will be ignored.
I’m not sure at this time what effect some of the tags will have in the editor. I haven’t tried them all 
if you run into issues let me know and I’ll need to make a decision on wheter to try to fix it or remove 
the tag(s) from the allowed list.
The currently supported tags are: abbr, acronym, address, article, asside, b, 
bdi, bdo, blockquote, button, caption, cite, code, del, details, dfn, 
div, em, footer, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, header, 
i, ins, main, mark, meta, p, pre, q, s, samp, section, small, span, 
strong, sub, sup, summary, time, u, var, wbr
Attributes: Add attributes to the html tag. Attibute names must be valid (they must 
begin with a letter and contain only letter, numbers, underscores and dashes. Attribute 
values must not contain double quotes (“) any attributes that do not conform to these 
rules will be ignored. Please note that beyond this, attribute names and values are not 
validated. I do not know what effect invalid entries will have on your admin. Like other 
values, if you find something that causes an issue, open one and I’ll see what needs to be done.
Other MediumEditor Options: This is a selection of other 
<a href="https://github.com/yabwe/medium-editor#core-options" rel="nofollow ugc">Core Options</a> available for 
MediumEditor with the exception of allowBreakInSingleLineInput (see below). Please 
see the MediumEditor documentation for information on each of the other options. Selecting 
an option will set that option’s value to true, unselecting the value will set it to false.
allowBreakInSingleLineInput: This is an option added specifically for use with WP. 
If you set disableReturn on then the medium editor acts like a single line input field. Setting 
allowBreakInSingleLineInput allows editors to manually type in tags into these 
single line fields to create line breaks.
<h3>Medium Editor Theme</h3>
MediumEditor fields will use the WordPress theme created specifically for the this plugin unless you change it. 
You can alter the theme used for all MediumEditor fields, this is not something that you can apply to only 
some fields. You can change the theme on your site in one of two ways:
1) wp-config.php 
Add the following code to your wp-cofig.php file
<pre><code>define('MEDIUM_EDITOR_THEME', 'beagle');
</code></pre>
2) filter 
Add the following code to your functions.php file or wherever you would add such a filter
<pre><code>add_filter('medium-editor-theme', 'my_medium_editor_theme_function');
function my_medium_editor_theme_function($theme) {
 $theme = 'beagle';
 return $theme;
}
</code></pre>
Theme name in the above code is one of the following themes currently supported by MediumEditor: 
beagle, bootstrap, default, flat, mani, roman, tim
For more information see <a href="https://github.com/yabwe/medium-editor#mediumeditor" rel="nofollow ugc">MediumEditor</a> and 
<a href="https://github.com/arcs-/MediumButton#mediumbutton" rel="nofollow ugc">MediumButton</a>
<h3>Custom Editor Styles</h3>
The styles used in the medium editor for elementa is inherited from WP. If you want to override these styles 
create a file named “medium-editor-syle.css” in your theme folder. If this file exists is will be 
automatcially enqueued on all pages where ACF fields appear.
<h3>Add Custom Buttons in Code</h3>
This filter is applied to the custom buttons before they are validated as having all the correct 
requirements that are given when creating a custom button in the field settings for a Medium Editor Field.

ACF Medium Editor Field

This plugin gives WordPress what it has been missing for some time – a text field that is more than just a textarea and less that tinyMCE. And it does it flawlessly! Recommended.
