Cool thank you.  Am I misinterpreting what the rss links do?  Should they display anything?

Most browsers will pick up the link tag and give you an icon somewhere, so should be good enough. If you want to put your own icon on the page to link to the feeds, then you can just use the same href that is generated in the link tag. But if you want it all dynamically generated the way the link tags are, you'll have to dig into the xslt a bit.

Ya I'm using Chrome, it doesn't show RSS icons.  And that is what I figured.  Looks like I'll have to edit the xslt anyway, I want full text rss.  Thank you.

I am having an issue with the BlogTagCloud. When I run the "Visualize XSLT", it works fine. When I try to save it or use the macro in a webpage I get the following error:

If the error is just when you save in the admin, then you can check the box to ignore it. If you're getting it on your page, then you're probably passing a bad value into a function expecting an int (NiceUrl). But then the visualize feature should not work with that same page.

When I render it on the website I get:

Error parsing XSLT file: \xslt\BlogTagcloud.xslt

I'm not passing any vaules but is there a doc on how to use the BlogTagCloud?

GRRRR.. I figured it out. I was using the tag cloud outside of the location of the blog and theh "currentpage" param name was failing the query. Is there any way to use the Tag Cloud outside of the blog? My structure is like this:

Home

------News(blog section)

I want to place the tagcloud in the home section one level up.

I had the same problem as I used the tagcloud outside of the blog, too. To fix it you can change:

{umbraco.library:NiceUrl($currentPage/ancestor-or-self::Blog/@id)}?filterby={.}

to this:

{umbraco.library:NiceUrl($currentPage/descendant-or-self::Blog/@id)}?filterby={.}

is working on a reply...
