Drupal tagging via tagadelic

this module does a good job at creating a tagcloud block - all good here. now id also like to have a page that lists all tags with next to each tag the number of posts that were tagged with this term. all terms are listed ok on http://example.com/?q=tagadelic/list/3 but i dont think tagadelic can add the number of posts per tag?

also, it seems tagadelic can just output one single block "tags in tags". whatever changes i make in the tagadelic configuration is applied to the tagadelic/list/3 url AND to the tagcloud block in the sidebar (the order of tags and number of tag levels)

does what i need require some custom module or are there others around that can achieve this? ive been playing around with Views 2 but cant quite get what I need

Use views and views_cloud for a much more flexible solution.

Edit: If you are having trouble with the views module, there is some very good in-browser instructions that come with it, but they require the advanced_help module.

thanks for this, checking it out now. Views is no prob, my favorite drupal module

I add a view and set "cloud" for Basic Settings > Style. Then i see a "cloud weight field" drop down but there are no values and this field is required :(Can this module also output a page that lists all tags + the number of posts for each tag linked to a page with all posts with this tag? if that makes sense ...

I have no idea, it's been a while since I used it myself. Now that I look at the last update date, I suppose it's entirely possible it's no longer compatible with the views module.

its purpose seems to be to output clouds but that "cloud weight field" wont go away. and showing the nbr of posts per tag isnt possible.

The cloud weight is how big it is. Without a field specifying the weight of each item, the cloud is fairly useless, it's just a list again. On the topic of showing number of posts, it should be possible, but like I said, it's been a long time since I used either drupal or this module

http://drupal.org/project/term_node_count adds the count of nodes per taxonomy term as an available Views field.
