I’ve made some improvements to the cat2tags plugin. Noteable, you can use spaces, the list is comma separated, and I combined the output of tags with a weighted list — looks pretty good.

Requirements

• WordPress 1.5 Strayhorn
• MySQL 4.0
• PHP 4.3 (Tested on 4.3.10)

Installation

Now, installation is really easy, it’s totally fool-proof, you don’t even need to modify your WordPress files or apply patches, the steps are 5:

1. Make sure you don’t have the original Cat2Tag activated, weird things can happen, de-activate it.
2. Download this file and save it as .php.
3. Upload the file to your plugins folder, which in most cases is inside the wp-content folder.
4. Go to your Admin Panel, and in the Plugins section, activate it.
5. Actually, there’s no Step 5 — does it sound familiar to you? — just start writing a new post.

What this plugin does?

• Gives you the posibility to create new categories — a.k.a tags — when creating new posts, like you do when posting something on Flickr or del.icio.us.
• Shows you all the available tags displayed like weighted categories.
• You don’t need special keywords or additional tables to make it work, instead, it uses the categories system to organize your tags.

For other details make sure you check the original post.

And a huge thanks to Jeff.
