Warning
IT IS MANDATORAY TO COMPLETELY REMOVE ALL VERSION < 2.6.0 BEFORE INSTALLING THIS NEW ONE!
Go to the Extension Manager under the tab Manage, enter in filter "tag", select all and click Actions – Uninstall
Reason: I did change a lot of folder name and file casing casing to be more Joomla compliant
Don’t be scared you will not loose any Tags or data from your database! uninstalling do not remove currently any tables!
Your ideas are important, feel free to contact me and ask for new features!
New & Noteworthy
Security
SECURITY: all Ajax operations+Admin operation are now protected with a Joomla token to avoid CSRF
SECURITY: All SQL statement have been migrated to use Joomla Query Object so the code should be portable now under SQL Server, Postgress
Code review and refactoring is a recurring task for me!
Performances
PERF: Faster escaping in modules if there is no tags matching any criteria,
Features
NEW: More themes are available.
NEW: In “article Manager”, multi-tag filtering it is now possible to simply select multiple tags and/or searching for one tag and then another within the previous results.
NEW: In “article Manager”, tab index is supported, enter tags hit tab to go to next articles,
NEW: Full rewriting of Tag List layout, now table less.
NEW: Full rewriting of blog layout: having as much if not all features of the internal Joomla category blog feature.
- Table less layout,
- Category display,
- Articles Metadata: publish, created, hits,
- Articles operations like print, email,
- As it reuse the setting of Joomla, you’ll have to go to Joomla configuration to make changes or better it will inherit the same setting as Joomla content blog layout.
NEW: full internationalization of all 5 modules:
- Custom Tags Cloud (en-GB.mod_cedtagcustom.ini),
- Latest Tags Cloud (en-GB.mod_cedtaglatest.ini),
- Most Popular Tags Cloud (en-GB.mod_cedtagmostpopular.ini),

; %1$s = frequency,
; %2$s = name,
; %3$s = created,

COM_CEDTAG_ITEMS_TITLE="%1$s items tagged with %2$s | created %3$s | Hits: %4$s"
NEW: More Options for Menu Entry “All Tags” Count, Page Title, Meta Description, Meta Keywords, Reverse display and tags ordering. Some default are provided.
NEW/BUG Wordle now working on Linux, was always working on windows due to a path issue to the true type font I did introduced, I took the time to add a lot more settings so you can fully customized the images created!
NEW: Rockettheme Installer removed to use standard Joomla installation packages. To remove now all CedTag components, just remove the main component. No risk of incomplete removal.
NEW: menu entries for administration backend
NEW: 5 Modules are now created as default but not published nor assigned to any page.
NEW: option so front page tagging to be just available in front page edit before , it was too long, and breaks the browsing experience for any logged author browsing the site, sometimes appearing even twice. (Request)
NEW: scripts to switch off all subsystem of cedTag if you get no access to your site (happen only when you remove some part and not all of cedTag)
Known Issues

Bugs
BUG: Error 500 Some people encounter while using URL rewriting.
