Categories cloud widget
-
I have an insanely stupid question, but I cannot find the answer anywhere: is there an upper limit to how many categories I can display in the category cloud widget?
(To clarify, I know how to change the maximum number displayed. I’m just wondering if I can set that to any number I like, or if WordPress has some set upper limit beyond which I cannot go.)
-
Yes, there is. I can’t recall the exact number, but it’s set by WordPress.com and there’s nothing you can do to change it.
-
That’s what I figured. Does anyone happen to know the number?
(I want to make sure all my categories show in the widget, which may necessitate some rearranging on my part.)

Huh. I managed to get 100 at last count, and how nerdish am I that I actually counted? There is a “set max number of categories displayed”-type option in the widget; I’ve been fiddling with that, but I was wondering if there’s a hard max to the display. (I have, currently, 169 categories, which is why I ask.)
-
I have almost three hundred. I wonder why the difference? I just tried changing it to 100 and the changes would not take.
-
That’s basically the problem I’m having – I’ve had it set to 100 for a while now, then realized (boy, I pay attention) that I’m fast approaching 200. So I set my max limit to 250, and it won’t take. I was wondering if it’s a me-problem – maybe I was exceeding some limit I didn’t know about. Hence the question.

My category cloud looks awful. Its too jammed together. I have nowhere near 100 different categories. Mine is pretty much unusable. Thoughts? http://www.mcdj.wordpress.com
TIA!

I think you should not hijack threads and post the same question 3x.
Your category widget gives you the option to display categories in a list or in a drop-down box. Click edit and proceed from there.
