Sooo.....can I just add the code to one of my blocks in ultimate side columns? Do you know?

I am not sure as I don't use the ultimate side columns.

Freshly installed on a 3.7 board..I have written $vbcloud in the templates , for example in the footer, but nothing is shown?

$vbcloud is the wrong variable.

try $tag_cloud

Baldilocks,
Can you share the header/sidebar code?

It's tied in to the rest of the skin, so I don't know how effective it will be for you. In other words it uses images and gradients from directories on my server to knit everything together.

You could possibly clean it up and use it....

I'll PM it to you.

Tried $tag_cloud but it doesn't work.. Does anyone know how to get the tagclodu to show on VB 3.7?

I use $tag_cloud and it works just fine.
Where are you trying to put it ?

I removed all other plugins and it appears to work (with $vbcloud )..thanks

Hmmm, I've imported the product, then put the variable in my sidebar block, yet no tags show. Am I missing something?

EDIT: OK, it works fine with TechGuy's product, thanks! However, I placed the variable in one of my sidebar blocks, and it shows it in another box inside the sidebar box. How do I stop this?
