Tag cloud
Apart from the single (type=metadata) and full (type=item) browse pages, tag cloud is a new way to display the unique values of a metadata field.
To enable “tag cloud” browsing for a specific index you need to declare it in the dspace.cfg configuration file using the following option:
Property: | webui.browse.index.tagcloud.<n> |
Example Value: | webui.browse.index.tagcloud.1 = true |
Informational Note: | Enable/Disable tag cloud in browsing for a specific index. ‘n’ is the index number of the specific index which needs to be of type ‘metadata’. Possible values: true, false Default value is false. If no option exists for a specific index, it is assumed to be false. You do not have to re-index discovery when you change this configuration |
Tag cloud configuration
The appearance configuration for the tag cloud is located in the Discovery xml configuration file (dspace/config/spring/api/discovery.xml). Without configuring the appearance, the default one will be applied to the tag cloud
In this file, there must be a bean named “browseTagCloudConfiguration” of class “org.dspace.discovery.configuration.TagCloudConfiguration”. This bean can have any of the following properties. If some is missing, the default value will be applied.
displayScore | Should display the score of each tag next to it? Default: false |
shouldCenter | Should display the tag as center aligned in the page or left aligned? Possible values: true | false. Default: true |
totalTags | How many tags will be shown. Value -1 means all of them. Default: -1 |
cloudCase | The letter case of the tags. Possible values: Case.LOWER | Case.UPPER | Case.CAPITALIZATION | Case.PRESERVE_CASE | Case.CASE_SENSITIVE Default: Case.PRESERVE_CASE |
randomColors | If the 3 css classes of the tag cloud should be independent of score (random=yes) or based on the score. Possible values: true | false . Default: true |
fontFrom | The font size (in em) for the tag with the lowest score. Possible values: any decimal. Default: 1.1 |
fontTo | The font size (in em) for the tag with the lowest score. Possible values: any decimal. Default: 3.2 |
cuttingLevel | The score that tags with lower than that will not appear in the rag cloud. Possible values: any integer from 1 to infinity. Default: 0 |
ordering | The ordering of the tags (based either on the name or the score of the tag) Possible values: Tag.NameComparatorAsc | Tag.NameComparatorDesc | Tag.ScoreComparatorAsc | Tag.ScoreComparatorDesc Default: Tag.GreekNameComparatorAsc |
When tagCloud is rendered there are some CSS classes that you can change in order to change the tagcloud appearance.

| tagcloud_1 | Specific tag class for tag of type 1 (baed on score) |
| tagcloud_2 | Specific tag class for tag of type 2 (baed on score) |
