Xavier Dutoit	Thursday 11 May 2006 2:30:00 am Hi, Just to pretend I speak fluently web 2.0 (for those that aren't in the hype/bullshit yet, that's what I'm talking about: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/ ) I wanted to create some tag cloud to display reverse related objects. I have a class "topic" and you can "tag" articles/event with these topics (ie. for each article, I associate the choosen topics as related objects, with the enhanced object relation). I wanted to display the topics that are the most used (that got the more reverse relations) and display them as a cloud (shouldn't be too complicated). I also wanted to display the trend and display the same, but only for content that's been publish in the last few days. Anyone done something like that already ? I didn't come up with an easyway to limit the fetch to the content published the x few days. Any suggestion ? X+ http://www.sydesy.com
Kristof Coomans	Thursday 11 May 2006 6:26:38 am Hi Xavier Probably not the less resource intensive solution would be: Loop over all tags. For each tag, do a content/tree fetch with the objectrelationfilter (http://ez.no/community/contribs/template_plugins/objectrelationfilter) and a normal attribute filter on the published date. Unfortunately a content/tree_count fetch does not support extended attribute filtering yet ( http://ez.no/bugs/view/8227 ). Otherwise that would be the preferred solution. independent eZ Publish developer and service provider \| http://blog.coomanskristof.be \| http://ezpedia.org
