[tw] upgrading TWclassic to TW5beta: no love
I've been using TWfor many years and upgraded many times. However I've been unsuccessful upgrading by any means available to the current beta. Unless there is an alternative step-by-step instruction, it sounds like I should just leave well enough alone until it's released. For what it's worth, to provide the information here, this is a completely plain TW that I have been saving into with tiddlysnip for some years, it probably has 500+ tiddlers. I applaud and appreciate the move to modernization and generalization. But, I'm going to need to use what I have for the time being I'm afraid since it's my 'daily bread'. I look forward to trying it again when the stable release is out. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

[tw] Re: upgrading TWclassic to TW5beta: no love
Thanks so much for the reply - You should be able to open a new, empty TW5 and then drag-and-drop an existing TWC file, which will copy the tiddlers into the new file - yes, and after about 5 min of nothing and FF 27 completely locking up I force quit it. The second time, with FF16 (last one that works with tiddlysnip), another 5 min with no apparent action, my stuff appeared in the previous original skin. However have been unable to save and have it open as an html file. To backtrack just a bit to try to provide useful info about my results so far: mid 2011 MB pro, OSX 10.8.5 Existing TWC 2.8.1 Using FF21 (the last one that does not kill TS for my FF16): - TW5 download button does not work - go to http://tiddlywiki.com/empty.html, save empty.html file - it opens as a text file no matter what - online converter does not work - no activity - rt click on url http://tiddlywiki.com/empty.html, save, open saved empty file, drop in TWC, FF paralyzed for 5 min. - - comes up with content in new skin - - won't local save, rt click - - - won't follow links in save as dialogue, won't move up/down folder structure to save in particular location - - - save as foo.html.part - - - some new skin, old standard skin gone. - - - have not explored the saved file much - don't know how much of the previous file is there or correct. Safari: - online upgrade doesn't work - rt click on url http://tiddlywiki.com/empty.html, save, open saved empty, drop in TWC - - safara paralyzed 5 min - - comes up with content in new skin - - won't local save, rt click, save as 'unknown' - - - won't follow links in save as dialogue, won't move up/down folder structure to save in particular location - - - saved as foo.html - - - opens in new skin, old standard skin gone. - - - have not explored the saved file much - don't know how much of the previous file is there or correct. Hope this helps - As I'm teaching full time and a half, not much time for beta testing, but will forward any info I have. Feature request: TW5 incorporate Tiddlysnip; the single most useful feature about tiddlywikis I have found over the last 6 years.

[tw] Re: TiddlySnip and Firefox 17 (with TiddlyFox)
Second that - 17 and up (now 24 and counting) Tiddlysnip doesn't work. Really wish I was a coder - and as I've said before I'd /love/ to pay for a working version, as I suspect many others would. Any ideas / workarounds would be much appreciated by me and my students. Cheers, John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

[tw] Re: Not able to save with Safari
I was just coming here to report that the latest update to Safari, as well as update to Firefox - v21 both have eliminated saving. Backing off the version restores saving - Safari and FF are both broken for TW right now - snip I am now unable to save TWs running in Safari. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

[tw] Upgrading from 2.6.1 and 2.6.2 to 2.7.1 - successful method notes
Upgrading from 2.6.1 and 2.6.2 to 2.7.1 - successful method notes Greetings all - Thanks so much for all the great work from so many that made TW the main class page of all my classes. I recently found I'd not updated in a while and it might not work. I have at least one TW for each class. I see others here had that problem, so I'm making a new post in hopes my notes may help others. I recently upgraded about 20 TWs from 2.6.1 and 2.6.2 to 2.7.1 Went through some hoops - took notes so I can remember when I find more to upgrade - here they are, YMMV, hope this helps: tiddly wiki upgrade notes macbook pro 2011 current OS FF v12 ** Seems core upgrades or tiddler imports may not work unless both TWs are at root level, or only 1 folder in, and in same folder. Many of my TWs are 6 folders deep - that could be it. I've seen this previously with upgrades/imports of other versions, so I'm working at desktop level here. test - 6.2 6.3 won’t upgrade directly to 2.7.1 - 2.7.1 won't import from 2.6.2 or 3 - got the v 2.6.3 2.6.4 from TW archive - got 6.2 to export (using import) to 6.3, then import to 6.4 in the same folder at root level - would /not/ import to 2.6.5 hmmm - BUT 2.6.4 upgraded to 2.7.1 when in the same folder at root level - upgraded TW tested ok - discovered I can import to 2.6.4 directly and skip one step - tested with 2.6.2 and 2.6.1 TWs direct to 2.6.4 end test - current upgrade method: (worked with versions as far back as 2.6.1) 1 copy old file to root folder 2 put copy of 264 next to it 3 import to 264 from old file 4 then upgrade core of 264 to 271 and rename 5 move back to home folder, make a copy as backup, keep original file in case (belt and suspenders) 6 test Cheers - John Gonder -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

[tw] Re: How to upgrade TWClassic manually
Right - have used that in the past, and kinda forgot about it - But - I really was curious about the step by step import and seeing which versions might of might not import, anyway - science is fun. Thanks - Now I have to search here about getting the singlepagemodeplugin to work - not being much of a programmer myself.

[tw] Importing tiddlers based on date or tag
I'm trying to get two TWs w/ about 1000 tiddlers in sync, so I can use just the one. aside - importing seems to only work at all if they're sitting next to each other in the same dirrectory. if I select all tiddlers, many will be overwritten, which I wouldn't mind, but the popup goes down off the screen, and I can't scroll down to say OK. if there was a way to select the last 6 months additions, or select by tag, then I'd do that. Any suggestions appreciated - anything to avoid going one by one through 1000 tiddlers. Regards, John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

[tw] Bug Report: tw2.6.2 randomly adds html code to tiddlers
I'm finding things like: spanspanspanspanspan a style=cursor: pointer;a style=cursor: pointer;a style=cursor: pointer;a style=cursor: pointer;a style=cursor: pointer; /a/a/a/a/a /span/span/span/span/span added to my tiddlers more or less randomly - Details: FF 3.6.17 OSX 10.6.7 I often create them in text editor - plain text - then paste in, and later double click and add more notes. I also use TiddlySnip (greatest thing since TW). I use ctrlsh enter to keep the date the same a lot. Started seeing this a few months ago. I see no pattern to the additions, sometimes yes, sometimes no, sometimes a lot of cruft, sometimes just a bit. Not sure if it's affecting the presentation but it makes it a pain to edit/add info later. Annoying. Any suggestions?

[tw] TiddlySnip - the greatest or - something else?
Greetings - I've found that TiddlySnip is the most used thing about TW's for me - grabbing things from the net and putting them into my basic TW, then being able to find them next semester for the class I'm teaching then. But - it's not been supported for a while. Is there any other add-on that does the same thing? Or at least can I hope that someone might take up the charge to keep TS up to date - I wish I could, but I'm not a coder.

[tw] Firefox Mac Save allow deny can't remember decision
Greetings - For a while now, in current Mac OS, current Firefox with the current TW version, I've been getting allow deny like bloody M$ app and check remember this decision, of course, just like internet exploder, is just a decoration. As soon as that window is closed, and the TW opened again, it's the same thing all over again. I don't think I've overlooked anything in FF settings - but this is driving me nuts - I feel like I'm in a PC/Mac commercial Allow / deny - allow deny fooey - Any hints appreciated - Thanks very much in advance. packetlevel --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.
