We've been doing some R&D on funky plugins for EPiServer and decided that we'd show you guys what we're up to. Have a look at our new EPiServer labs site:
B&D EPiServer Labs
Our tag cloud module 'EPiCloud' is the first module I've put on there. (At the moment I've only put the cloud control on the section homepages (News/Events etc) but any page on the site can be tagged.) It already supports features such as:
- Culture awareness
- Tag quantity limiting
- Ability to show tags for page, children or both
- Moderator approval
We're looking to expand on this with some features such as:
- Tag links
- Edit-mode approval plugin
- Server controls
- Single-assembly release
Once we've got it to a release-ready state we'll be thinking about how to release it to the community. We might put it on EPiCode for free or for a fee, or might just embed a link to B&D and then distribute the module as closed source. We'll see... but if you have an interest in using the module then let me know and we'll have a think about the best distribution model for it.
