## Description

This plugin will create a tag cloud for a specific author. This will allow a visitor
on your site to drill deep down into an author’s specific content.

It uses all of the same parameters as wp_tag_cloud(), but adds an additional one
for the author_id. When the author_id is passed an integer of a published author
that has tagged his or her posts, a tag cloud will be generated.

It will also create a new permalink structure on your site of

www.yoursite.com/author/author-slug/tag/tag-slug

***Note: that you must be using any custom permalink structure for this plugin to
function. Also, custom taxonomies is currently not functioning with this version,
please look forward for this in a later version.

## Installation

a custom permalink structure. This plugin will not function on the standard WordPress
install and use it you must change your permalink settings.
