title: cakephp tag plugin: How to display the top X weighted tags using the cloud helper
body: <p>I'm trying to use the <a href="http://cakedc.com/downloads/view/cakephp_tags_plugin" rel="nofollow">cakephp tag plugin</a> to generate a tag cloud. If I follow the basic usage instructions it always retrieves the first X tag records instead of the top X tag records by weight. How can I get the top tags instead of the first tags? </p>
  
  <p>Also I can't figure out what the weight field in the tags table is for, since it is always set to 0. The Tag cloud function though is still able to get size based on weight though.</p>
  
  <p>there is an issue on it in the <a href="http://cakedc.lighthouseapp.com/projects/59622/tickets/14-sorting-the-tag-cloud-by-top-or-random-occurrence#ticket-14-1" rel="nofollow">issue tracker</a></p>
