I adapted this into PR#3018

Would it be OK to post on Reddit too?

Thanks!

Re: [tw] Modifying TiddlyDesktop

2017-11-18 Thread Jeremy Ruston 
Hi Stephen

Before experimenting with TiddlyDesktop internals you should find the location 
of the “user configuration folder” - click the “Settings” button on the main 
TiddlyDesktop window, and then click the button “Open user config folder”. Then 
move up to locate the parent folder, which should be called “TiddlyDesktop”. If 
things go wrong, you can reset TiddlyDesktop to its factory state by deleting 
this entire folder.

Click the “Backstage” button on the main TiddlyDesktop window to open the 
backstage wiki. This is is a Node.js-like instance of TiddlyWiki that runs the 
UI and logic of TiddlyDesktop.

> So, as a start, let me get very specific. Suppose I wanted to get rid of the

Within the backstage wiki, locate the tiddler “WikiListToolbar” (there’s a link 
in HelloThere). Click it into edit mode and you’ll see the wikitext for all the 
toolbar buttons. If you make modifications and click “done” then the changes 
will immediately be reflected in the main TiddlyDesktop window.

> Or consider the "advanced" button. As close as I can tell, the only thing

You can copy the code for the “reveal backups” button from the tiddler 
$:/TiddlyDesktop/Settings and paste it into WikiListToolbar.

> Or change the colors? 

Just as usual in TiddlyWiki: you can use the palette, or define your own custom 
CSS.

> Or change the order in which the tiddlers are listed (which appears to be

Open the “WikiList” tiddler, edit it, and scroll to the end. Then change the 
<$list> widget inside the “wikilist” macro:

> <$list filter="[tag[wikilist]sort[title]!has[draft.of]]" emptyMessage="Add a 
> ~TiddlyWiki file or folder to get started.
> 
> Click the buttons above to browse, or drag and drop from your file 
> Explorer/Finder" storyview="pop">

As you click around the backstage wiki and the content of the 
$:/plugins/tiddlywiki/tiddlydesktop within it, and you’ll quickly see how the 
pieces fit together, but feel free to ask any further questions here.

Best wishes

Jeremy

[tw] Modifying TiddlyDesktop

2017-11-17 Thread 'Stephen Kimmel' via TiddlyWiki 
The Firefox Apocalypse (well done whoever dreamed up that phrase) has 
prompted me to start looking at TiddlyDesktop more closely. One thing that 
isn't clear at all is how to modify it. I know. I know. There's the help 
file but I didn't find it very helpful. 

So, as a start, let me get very specific. Suppose I wanted to get rid of 
the "Add a TiddlyWiki Folder" button. How would I do that? 

Or consider the "advanced" button. As close as I can tell, the only thing 
that does is display a "reveal backups" button. How would I change the 
"advanced" button to the "reveal backups" button. 

Or change the colors? 

Or change the order in which the tiddlers are listed (which appears to be 
alphabetical)?

Stephen
