One more problem:

When I click in some tag in tag cloud, it gives me an error:


What can I do to fix it?

:up:

In rewriting the code for handling the tag cloud, I forgot to add a call to the standard vb tag.php function. It has been fixed and an updated version (v1.21) has been posted.

Added in version 1.21

• Correction implemented on the missing tag link as reported.
• Missing images for posts and members blocks added in the images/misc folder

You can edit the colors in the css files.

Drop the content of the "image" folder in your style "image" folder. The mod has already a nosidebaravatar.png included to take into account those users without avatars specified.

Option for collapse/expanded will be added in an upgraded version.

Additional options on the "Cumulus Tag Cloud" will also be added

What exactly file/line I need to edit to modify the white background on my custom skin?

If there is a high demand for this addition, I can add an option for it.

Please! Amd option is were nice

Thanks
