Frog CMS

Hi Artem - If I understand you correctly, I don't think Frog quite works the way you're picturing.

Think of Frog's layout as a tree-structure, just like it is laid out in the "Pages" view of the admin. The "blog" section is simply the pages underneath the "Articles" parent page, and the "Archives" plugin (enabled by default) manages the month/year archive links, and the URLs with dates (e.g. "...articles/2008/07/06/my_second_article").

I think you can get what you want with easylancer's Tagger plugin. This lets you put use the "tags" field (use comma-delimited lists) in the "Metadata" tab with Articles, to get a list of articles ("tag-cloud") by tag. If you think of "tag = category" that should get you the functionality you're after. ... I think! ;)

Otherwise, you could simply set up a set of subpages (underneath "Homepage") with your categories, and these will show up in the main nav, and you can put your articles in there. You won't get the "Archive" view, but you can easily display the date published and/or updated, and as long as you add pages in the default manner (click on the green "+" icon), you will get newest pages at the top.

I hope that's a help for now. If I haven't understood your question, please try again!

@ Artem – if you’re still watching… in the tagger/index.php file, lines 40-41:

$max_size = 12; // max font size in pixels
$min_size = 12; // min font size in pixels

I just made them both the same size versus using a max size of 32.
hth,
