Fixes: #37166

Description

Add NumberControl input to enter minimum and maximum font size value. It will help user to decide how they want tag cloud to look. Earlier it used to modify fontsize based on the number of post for a particular tag.

NOTE: When I reload the page these values reset to default values. 😞

How has this been tested?

  1. Checkout to this branch
  2. Create multiple tags here http://localhost:8888/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=post_tag
  3. Create multiple different post and add tags created in the above step.
  4. Create/edit a post and add /tag cloud block.
  5. For /tag cloud block go to settings, there you can see 2 new input has been added to control font size.
  6. Adjust/modify those numbers and save the post.
  7. Open same post that has /tag cloud block and check its font size.

Thanks for your work @amustaque97! 💯

This works well code wise! I left a couple of notes about making the controls a bit more compact and it would be ready to land. After the changes we would just need a design approval of course maybe by @jasmussen?

You need to add the changes to block docs since you changed block attributes. Run npm run api-docs:ref and npm run api-docs:blocks.

Thank you for the PR! Here's how the tag cloud looks in trunk:
before

Here's this PR applied:

after

I thought about whether there was a better way to combine min/max font sizes into a singular control, but for comparison the paragraph font size looks like this:
Typography panel states

So it's probably best to not diverge too far from this.

The following is a mockup that uses new components from the effort outlined in #27331, so it looks a bit different from what's shipping but it's what it could eventually look like:

mockup

But one single recommedation I'd make is to adopt the unit-selector input field. That would both let us remove the (pt) from the label, and pick other units. Is that feasible?

In smaller changes, if it isn't too much, I'd change the panel title from "Tag Cloud settings" to just "Settings" — there really isn't need for the redundancy.

Nice work!

Thank you for the reply! I can change the units from pt to px but not sure how to add px keyword to the right side of the NumberControl input field. Maybe reviewers can suggest me something!

I tried my best to implement UI as shown in the illustration. I testing it making mobile/ipad responsive. Here is the screenshot!

In order to implement this I have used InputControl instead of NumberControl

Thanks for the iterations here @amustaque97!

In order to implement properly what @jasmussen suggests you should use UnitControl component. What this means in practice is that:

  1. You should update the new attributes to being strings with default values in pt
  2. This will also require extra handling (splitting) these values in (value/unit) in order to be passed properly in wp_tag_cloud (php part).

We can't change the default behavior to px because it will change the existing blocks appearance.

This is a bit more extra work but provides more flexibility.

What occurred to me right now is that with unit control we can set different units per size (smallest, largest), but there is no support for this in wp_tag_cloud. So we can't go this way as is a case I don't think we've encountered before(design wise).

Maybe a first iteration of this could be to support only the pt as it was before the updates in the PR with the px related changes and find a design about this? 🤔 What do you think @jasmussen ?

@ntsekouras Again! this was too quick 😅 💨 . TBH I was not ready for the review yet. I was trying few things. Best thing to do right now is to wait for the reply from design team.

I would suggest is to make both smallestFontSize and largestFontSize unit in sync. Example if we are updating unit for any one of it. It should set the same unit for the other one. I was trying to implement the same using useState hooks. Umm. for some reason it is not able to sync correctly! Not sure whether it will be useful or not!

Adding a link for sample example though it is not an actual implementation but the idea would be same.

Took this one for a spin:
tag cloud

This looks great to me! Thanks for the extra effort. I don't think we need to sync the two unit types, it adds only limited value and I could imagine in the future someone wanting a minimum font size in pixels, and a max font size in responsive vw units, so having the two unchained feels like a feature.

Honestly this one is good to go pending just a code sanity check. Is there a reason we limit support to px and pt or could we support the full range of font size units? This wouldn't be a blocker for the PR, just a question.

wp_tag_cloud supports only single font size unit at any time. So if font size is not in sync. User will get confuse which font unit is currently in use. User may assume that there is a bug. This is another reason why initially I hardcoded pt.

Oh that's helpful context. 🤔

The unit selector you've implemented, though, is useful, and it would be nice to keep it. How hard would it be to keep those two in sync after all?

In order to do that I guess we would just handle this on onChange function of each input and conditionally update the other one (check the unit of both attributes).

Noting that changing the two attributes(smallest, largest) into type string is still needed and we will not need a third attribute of the unit.

Addressed review comments. Code wise it is functional but on UI it doesn't update when we update font unit. I wanted to use something like unit so that it will be easy to update UI if we are changing units at code level.

Looking forward to your inputs Nik!

Took it for a quick spin, and I'm seeing this:
units

This looks great. Thank you for going the extra mile. This feels good to me.

I'd appreciate if Nik could give this one a quick code review, but the user experience is good! 👏

Thanks for iterating on this one once again @amustaque97! Great work!

The other thing that sometimes doesn't update the unit in the control, is something that seems to be internal to UnitControl. The values are updated properly in the block and when the controls are rerendered everything seems fine. --cc @ciampo for this issue.

I can reproduce sometimes when changing one font size and then change the unit of the other fontSize control.

Hey @ntsekouras! Out of curiosity, are you able to reproduce that bug also in Storybook, or is it just happening in the context of the Tag Clouds settings?

If you add another UnitControl in the stories that update both values, you can reproduce as well. It has to do with updating both values in one onChange..

test cases were failing because of new attribute `fontSizeUnit`. It is fixed now.
given a comment to handle decimal value case when passed to `unit`
property. I updated the regex to `/^\d*\.?\d*/`. This regex can parse
values like `123.3px` or `.33px` or `123px`.

I've left a minor change to the min value, but tested and this looks good! Attribute sanitization looks good too.
