I’ve found the a way I could modify the sizes of the largest and smallest but what I’d like to modify is the 2nd to largest - is there a way to do that?

hmmm.
Guess not.

but there MUST be a way! with EE there’s always a way! You just need to find the person that can figure it out.

i’d imagine the way would involve contacting the author of said plugin…

I think it just does a linear scale between whatever’s specified at the two limits, doesn’t it?  So the individual “levels” wouldn’t be directly modifiable.

I’m pretty sure you’re right - I don’t think this is a minor modification to the plugin.

I will send a FR to the author. It’s not a do or die feature. if it’s not doable. I’m quite fine with the way it is.

I could probably try to figure out the plugin, but that would require me to learn the language first!

Yea, there’s no easy way to just affect a single ‘increment’ amount.  Take a look around line 1325- that’s where the font size is calculated:

$font_size_array[$keyword] = round($font_smallest + (($count - 1)/$font_step));

$font_smallest is whatever you set as the smallest font size- default is 10.
$count I THINK refers to the number of articles a given keyword appears in.
$font_step is the increment - I’m not going to get into how it’s calculated as it’s pretty much a constant and you can figure it out from the code.

So….  Basically the way I see to change things is to play with $count in some way- so that the increments end up non-linear.  Maybe use the log or something- don’t know, as I suck with math.  But the php is easy if you had the math- just change the formula as needed.  Anyway, it’s not a constant, so seems the easiest thing to play with.

Wouldn’t change a given increment, but could change the overall pattern.  Hm- don’t know if that made any sense, but hopeful a math geek will chime in.

Heh- and just dinking around, it was easy to modify the interval between the smallest and the next smallest and the largest and the next largest- which is halfway what you want.  Because you can lock in on the smallest and largest, you can use a conditional to play with the baseline for them.  Um… so if you wanted a larger or smaller gap between smallest/next smallest or largest/next largest- you can do:

$font_size_array = array();

foreach ($keywordlist as $keyword => $count)
{
if ($count == min($keywordlist)) {
$font_size_array[$keyword] = (round($font_smallest + (($count - 1)/$font_step))) - 2; }
else {
$font_size_array[$keyword] =  round($font_smallest + (($count - 1)/$font_step));
    }
}

Get it?  In this case, the smallest font is actually 2 smaller than the ‘minimum’ font setting.  So if you left it to the default of 10, the smallest would actually be 8, while everything else is calculated with a base min of 10, thus widening the gap between smallest and next smallest.  Same logic would work subbing in if ($count == max($keywordlist)) .  Still not a fine level of control, but it’s closer.

I will have to give that a try! but not now, I’ve already proved on another thread that I’m not fit for tinkering tonight.
