A variable tag which returns a number from 1 to 6 (by default) which represents the rating of the entry tag in context in terms of usage where '1' is used for the most often used tags, '6' for the least often. The tag context is created by either an MTEntryTags or an MTTags block.

This is suitable for creating "tag clouds" in which MTTagRank can determine what level of header (h1 - h6) to apply to the tag. Please see the important note about including tag clouds on archive pages if you are considering such a thing.

Optional attributes

• max - Allows a user to specify the upper bound of the scale.

Example code

The following is a very basic tag cloud suitable for an index template or, with some styling, a sidebar of any page.

<h1>Tag cloud</h1>
<div id="tagcloud">
    <MTTags>
        <h<$MTTagRank$>>
            <a href="<$MTTagSearchLink$>"><$MTTagName$></a>
        </h<$MTTagRank$>>
    </MTTags>
</div>
