-  I was searching for a note taking app; Went on to find Notion, 
Obsidian, RemNotes and TiddlyWiki.
   - Notion - Online; Data policies; a bit difficult to keep track 
   on; interface is turnoff. (For me) (Was not sure of exports either)
   - Obsidian - everything seemed good. I invested a lot of time 
   too. but was only on desktop. I work on iPad too (atleast read). Too 
 many 
   different .md files to handle.
   - RemNotes - I liked this one thouroughly. It has Spaced 
   repetetion in itself free at the moment, decent interface, and Roam 
 like. 
   But before finding it, I fell in love with the Stroll TiddlerWiki 
 and now I 
   have a dilemma.
   - TIddlerWiki - I found it somewhere in the Obsidian forum (a 
   shout of thanks to that user). Felt incredible for its simplicity 
 and the 
   open source nature. People collaborating for something this great. 
 The

Prestige,

You have the right approach. Evolve your wiki as you go, just use a backup 
process, so when making larger changes you don't destroy your data. Keep in 
mind you may divide it in future to more than one wiki.

Design you wiki so it is easy to separate the data from the workings, and 
it will be easy to migrate into another edition etc... eg give tiddlers a 
project or subject tag etc...

Regards
Tony

Tony,
Thanks for a wonderful reply. The ideas you convey will definitely add to 
my learning, and I am already trying stuff with my limited knowlegde. The 
thing is, I need to get started with the notemaking as the exams are 
nearing, so kind of want the setup ready soon. I will keep on changing the 
Wikis as per my needs maybe at time to time intervals when I have 'free 
time' :p.

But yes, I am very curious about the possiblities here at TiddlyWiki!

I liked the idea of using TW5 for different purpose vehicles - I was 
thinking on these lines too! Like,  can make my notes at one place and 
import them later into Maps to study via views directly. Something like 
that.

Thanks again! I will keep posting queries and hope you will engage at some 
point or the other :)

Prestige,

I read your post yesterday, and only getting to reply today. I see there 
has being a lot of water under the bridge since then, however I want to 
share my approach to making use of different tools and editions available.

may I suggest *"think outside the Box/tiddlywiki"*, I make use of multiple 
wikis mostly using Timimi in Chrome and Tiddlywiki but also TiddlyServer, 
TiddlyDesktop and Bob. This helps avoid too many clashed between editions 
and plugins etc...

   - I divide wikis by functional area and project etc... 
   - with a couple dedicated to links, plugin library, reference material.
   - I also have wikis that act as factories to create tools 
   - Or sources of images and icons
   - I have some dedicated to file conversion and imports I can then 
   transfer to the destination wiki

You could call this "meta tiddlywiki" or being god of your own Tiddlyverse"

There are many tools and tricks can help with this 

   - such as Mohammads searchwikis that allows you to import multiple 
   search index's into one wiki to search across multiple wikis.
   - iframes to other wikis - you can drag and drop between them
   - The new ZIP plugin
   - and many more techniques


Drag and drop is also your friend, and more and more easy methods are 
coming available for quick interwiki transfers.

Regards
Tony

Emily,
Thanks for sharing your way of working and setup. I haven't used Trello or 
Notion either. I am kind of starting note taking digitally, and I started 
off with Notion but kept moving on and on :p
Yes, I included TidGraph, and Leaflet too.  
And yes, all three themes by JD are a big thumbs up for me. I am using 
Drift variant which used the Mono theme. I like Moonlight too.

Final message I swear. This is good for toggling and very easy to use:

I found myself missing a toggle although I could link a tiddler to avoid a 
wall of text.

Hey,

I've recently started using TW too and moved on from Notion. I would 
recommend TidGraph if you just want to view stuff. Easy to use and 
configure in tiddlers.

http://ihm4u.github.io/tw5plugs/

I use it for my notes. For a trello-like board I'd recommend DropBoard.

https://reidgould.github.io/tiddlywiki-dropboard/

I use it a different board for different categories, and have a Today View 
that shows Today tiddlers for organized viewing. Similar to my Notion 
setup, I used TiddlyTables to make a table for assigning durations to each 
task scheduled for today. Using the durations I show how many hours they 
are in total in my Today View and above the durations table. 

The Shiraz plugin (a general quality-of-life plugin and I love its image 
templates) has an up-to-date method for searchable tables, although I've 
found an older macro that's simpler to use.

I use TiddlyWiki mostly on my iPad with Quine 2 
. It works rather well. 
Sometimes after loading a plugin, I need to reboot Quine, rather than 
simply refresh, and I haven't figured out which circumstances necessitate 
it. But I'm pretty happy with it overall.

 Hey guys,

  I am new here and the world of tiddlys. I am enjoying a lot with the 
 idea of just one file with unlimited customizations. I shall go ahead to 
 put my use case and the queries, I hope you guys can help me out.
 1. *About me*: engineer; knows basic programming, can learn too; 
 currently preparing for an exam - that required me to set up notes (and 
 revise them). My subject of study as of now is Anthropology.
 2.* Use Case:  *As I said, I need to prepare notes. The topics are 
 referenced to and from from many topics and are a bit dynamic at times 
 (current developments etc.). Also, I needed it to be a bit reasy to revise 
 later (or Spaced repetition maybe).
 3. 
 *The TiddlerWikis Experience: *

-  I was searching for a note taking app; Went on to find Notion, 
Obsidian, RemNotes and TiddlyWiki.
   - Notion - Online; Data policies; a bit difficult to keep track 
   on; interface is turnoff. (For me) (Was not sure of exports either)
   - Obsidian - everything seemed good. I invested a lot of time 
   too. but was only on desktop. I work on iPad too (atleast read). Too 
 many 
   different .md files to handle.
   - RemNotes - I liked this one thouroughly. It has Spaced 
   repetetion in itself free at the moment, decent interface, and Roam 
 like. 
   But before finding it, I fell in love with the Stroll TiddlerWiki 
 and now I 
   have a dilemma.
   - TIddlerWiki - I found it somewhere in the Obsidian forum (a 
   shout of thanks to that user). Felt incredible for its simplicity 
 and the 
   open source nature. People collaborating for something this great. 
 The 
   collaboration amongst humans is what I am studying in Anthropology, 
 so. 
   Anyway, I played around tiddly for a while. Tried to host it, 
 plugins from 
   the dynalist toolkit list, and many things.


- The tiddlerwiki I started using was Stroll. It had backlinking, 
  and its something I was looking for. Then, I tried importing some 
 plug-ins 
  of my interest. eg. TiddlyMaps (despite warnings by the Stroll 
 developer), 
  Leaflets for embedding maps (required for me or I can manage with 
 images 
  (but maps cl! :p). I tried a simple flowchart too. 
  - The problem: TiddlerMap is interfereing with Stroll. I 
 wanted to keep it a bit smaller in the sidebar itself? Is it 
 possible??
  
 4. The queries: 

- Suggestion for the Tiddlywik to use. eg. Stroll, TiddlyRoam, 
Drift (my new favourite).
   - For now I am building on Drift (I found it this morning and I 
   like it. Stroll is good too,

Oh wow, I'd like to mess around with that wiki containing those cool mix of 
plugins, maybe help with an edition containing those as recently they've 
become popular.. But I understand it's your data and privacy! 

I'm thinking actually of multiple sidebars now... another button with 
another sidebar to toggle... where the second one can be configured to not 
affect the story river width (of course this can be an option that can be 
integrated into Mono.theme)

With that kind of solution (multiple sidebars), however, one can be lists 
(narrower, can affect story river width/position), and the other can 
contain wider stuff (won't affect story river)... where their toggles are 
both always present ... (just throwing around an idea i might actually

2020-07-28 Thread Dummy ME
JD,
   I did change the Sidebar width to 500px or even more, but it messes up 
my Drift setup. It kind of worked okayish with stroll because it had bigger 
width by default on the left. It messed up when I had two column enabled. 
There was a work around provided by Dave (created Stroll), where we fix the 
Map window fixed with sidebar. I think I will try that with drift too (I 
just remembered the tweak -_-)!

Thanks :)

Thanks Mat,

   - I think the size is fine with me if it goes around 20MB max maybe, 
   because I am using gdrive and greater sizes might cause me troubles. 60,000 
   is cool. 
   - Yes, I saw the TiddlySpot. Its basically the same website, but I 
   couldn't find a way to upload my version on it.

[tw5] Re: [New Here] A hello and the set of questions!

2020-07-28 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
If you're on a variety of platforms, then a hodgepodge of saving techniques 
is pretty normal.  With firefox and chrome you could, in theory, use the 
default save mechanism everywhere. But it's not as convenient. With 
tiddlyserver, you could have all your devices save to one central computer.

If you have specific questions, such as how to use stroll with TiddlyMaps, 
then you should probably post them as separate questions so people with 
specific knowledge of those entities will notice. 

Have fun!

@jd if you could find the time to add support for the Stories plugin to the 
mono theme, I am sure that would be very well received by users of Drift:

About the sidebar! You can go here:

ControlPanel > Appearance > Mono Tweaks > Vanilla tweaks

On the list of this tab, the last one is "Sidebar width", maybe the value

How big is a web page, because that is what TW "is"? And, perhaps more 
importantly, how long does it take to load it? Depends. But you should 
avoid filling it with big images or other stuff that adds directly to the 
files code. Instead link to the stuff. (Images can for example be directly 
shown by means of the _canonical_uri field.) I think I recall people having 
files the size of 12 MB without any problem. Regular computer or super 
computer, I have no idea. And, I think Jeremy (the lead TW developer) has 
mentioned tests with 60.000 tiddlers without any problem.

Yeah, the link I shared is just a "shell" with an iframe showing the 
underlying tiddlyspot site. Tiddlyspot has been working reliably for over a 
decade but the host doesn't update it anymore so the original front page 
doesn't cater for TW5.

Hello! I Actually have nothing to say but that we are using almost the 
exact same saving methods across devices! 

I find this a bit of a hassle when in situations where my work environment 
changes multiple times in a day (commute an hour: edit on mobile, have some 
coffee: edit on laptop, had an idea at work: edit on mobile again because 
of laptop restrictions at work... when management tightens on mobile use 
even while on breaks, I resort to tiddlyspot).

So, if you encounter a saving method across devices that are better than 
what we have now, please do share! It'll save my life.

And, welcome to TW !

Yes, I know they are oneman show kind of a thing, I just find them a bit 
better suited for what I am about to do. I thought maybe the developer or 
the user might respond to my queries here.

Regarding the other solutions: I do like RemNote but I just like the flow 
of the TW5 better. Kind of, the card system make me like it even more, plus 
its customizable without the loss if I take up frequent backups, which is 
easy too! :P

Though I had one more question: 
*How big the files become after some decent usage? Can you (Mat) or anyone 
else share? *

A lot of thanks for shareing the TiddlySpot! I tried it but the TW official 
page has the link to the old TiddlySpot I was having a hard time 
finding a way to have my TW5 up there. I will look around the TW5 
TiddlySpot :) Thanks again..

Will keep pestering!

How to use TiddlyMaps without much trouble? 


Again, TiddlyMap is a one man creation, albeit much more mature than the 
previously mentioned ones. So if they are currently not compatible, it does 
makes sense to ask the community because maybe someone did solve it, but I 
think you see the problem - i.e neither of these plugins are the common 
denominator in the community. Add to that that they're quite complex 
creations so it is unlikely that someone who is *not a user* of them will 
immerse themselves for the sake of solving your specific needs. But who 
knows ;-)

> without altering the setup once done.

 
As you've noted, TW is infinitely adaptable. If your needs are covered by 
some other ready made product then perhaps that is a better choice because 
this adaptability subtly encourages constant tweaking - at least in my 
case. There is of course a bias here on the forum; the people that *"I've 
used the one and same TW since the Carter administration and never had to 
tweak it"*... well, they don't need to hang out here. There is no direct 
way of knowing how many people use TW or what they use it for (because TW 
totally respects integrity).


How to edit the wiki from multiple devices? iPad, Phone and Laptop?


There are many options. My personal favourite is to use TiddlySpot *set up 
via this site*: http://tiddlywiki5.tiddlyspot.com/
It is not a https service and it is not protected by million dollars of 
latest technology but TiddlySpot is a service that has served as a 
cornerstone for the community for whoever wants a simple way to host a TW 
online. Since you're only going to store study notes, as opposed to state 
secrets and bank account information, then I'd recommend it. You can always 
transfer the wiki later on if you want some self hosted sophisticated 
solution.
