stopwords not working - Githubissues

fabionolasco commented 2 years ago

Hi there,

First, thank you for the plugin! Super cool!

I am using version 1.3.1 with Obsidian version 0.13.23

I added one word per line on the stopwords field on the options part of the TagCloud plugin, like so: the a on in that is to for do our will would should could from and if this these those with as may therefore but are there if

I also tried to force it by adding the stopword: true

  ```wordcloud
  source: file
  stopwords: true

and

  source: file



The tag cloud shows up, but the stopwords also show up.

I already tried to close and reopen Obsidian.
I already tried to delete the text and re-add it.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

Thank you!

Version 1.3.2 has fixed an issue where custom stopwords would not be applied. Please keep in mind that you will need to recalculate the word distribution everytime you change anything in the settings and after updating to that version. There is a command as well as a button in the settings. (The frequency analysis can take a long time, so not automatic.)

@joethei I'm using 1.3.2, and not only are the stopwords not used, the word cloud seems to be almost only the stopwords! It also seems that changing any of the options has no effect on the word cloud (it's too small, and it doesn't change from generation to generation)-- the other clouds (tag, link) seem to respond as expected, but the word cloud seems to be deterministically wrong. I have had it recalculate the word distribution a bunch of times, but same result.

wordcloud
stopwords = true
width = 800
height = 600
maxDepth = 50

Stop words:

Yields:

Recalculating word distribution, then:

Hey, I also wanted to report that it doesn't remove stop words for me (v1.3.2)

I tried

    ```wordcloud
    source: file

and

```wordcloud
source: file
stopwords: true
```



produces:

So sorry, after copy/pasting this: https://github.com/igorbrigadir/stopwords/blob/master/en/terrier.txt into the plaugin-settings it works like a charm. I somehow assumed that they were already added by default. oops!

Loving this plugin, except that I have this stopword problem too, using v 1.3.2 of this plugin with Obsidian 0.14.15

I have

added the same list as berot3, above
recalculated word distribution
restarted Obsidian
added stopwords: true to try to force it

Many thanks for your work on this.

Hi, I wanted to report I'm having the same issues as the others. Love the idea of this plugin, but unfortunately it only shows me stopwords right now, despite defining these in the custom list. I've recalculated the vault several times.
