I don’t like using too many plugins, so I choose this way.
Edit functions.php of your current WordPress theme, insert these codes:
$text = preg_replace_callback('|<a (.+?)>|i', 'colorCloudCallback', $text);
return $text;
}
function colorCloudCallback($matches) {
$text = $matches[1];
$color = dechex(rand(0,16777215));
$pattern = '/style=(\'|\")(.*)(\'|\")/i';
$text = preg_replace($pattern, "style=\"color:#{$color};$2;\"", $text);
return "<a $text>";
}
add_filter('wp_tag_cloud', 'colorCloud', 1);
Then add wp_tag_cloud function:
or add Tag Cloud in widget
That’s all, you can change the numbers 8, 24, 50, which stands for smallest font size , representing the smallest font, the largest font and tags numbers.
Now you can see the cool colorful tag cloud in your WordPress!
