Re: [tw5] Re: Notes from the Coalface: Pasting URL's with pretty title

Just to follow up - At the moment the permalink to a tiddler copies the encoded url, if you paste this anywhere else you keep the encoded link. - Click and it works however the pretty title is lost or non existent. - This copy only ever captures the encoded URL -

[tw5] Re: Dreaming of "TidEdit", an in-browser TiddlyWiki WikiText editor

I put together, for the giggles, a quick and dirty picture of what I'm thinking. A nice little HTML file that, when opened in the browser, shows a tiddler editor. So just a small text editor that allows entering TW wikitext markup, with a preview window. Well, a preview window that only

If you want to skip loading a TW into memory, and just work on TID files, I would actually suggest VSCode and my TW5 Syntax plugin: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=joshua-fontany.tw5-syntax This has hot-key shortcuts that allow you to create the block of metadata

[tw5] Re: Table-of-Contents Macros

Stefan, The toc macro will sort tiddlers according to their current tag-specific order (stored in the list field of the tag's own tiddler). The most straightforward way to sort them differently is to find the tag-pill for the tag, click to show a "drop-down" list from the tag-pill, and drag

The links I gave you were to my TiddlyWiki textbook, not the TW documentation. It might not be "self-contained" since it's intended to be in the context of the whole course, but I think you'll find it more useful than the TW documentation at your skill level. On Sunday, August 8, 2021 at

Re: [tw5] Re: cannot transclude a tiddler name built from inside a macro

Thanks a lot Eric, valuable hints to better understand how TW works. Anyway, "whateveFilterHere" is just pseudo-code written here for the sake of simplicity. In my actual code there is a true filter, and it works fine, feeding the correct filtered list of tiddlers to the <$list> widget. Thanks

Re: [tw5] Re: cannot transclude a tiddler name built from inside a macro

\define getMeTiddlerName(a_suffix) $(currentTiddler)$$a_suffix$ In the macro definition above, $(currentTiddler)$ *substitutes the value from the currentTiddler variable* and then adds the specified $a_suffix$ parameter value. When you wrote this: <$list filter="whateveFilterHere">

[tw5] Re: cannot transclude a tiddler name built from inside a macro

Yes Soren, you are right: I have little understanding of the inner gears of text substitution and wikification in TW, nor did I find a thorough, comprehensive and self-contained guide to the matter so far: all the TW documentation I went through is a mess of scantly-explained (if ever),

Re: [tw5] Re: Notes from the Coalface: Pasting URL's with pretty title

Yeah, I know what you mean especially with the %20's all over the place. That can be fairly easily resolved by sticking with camel case for tiddler names. I very much dislike camel case *(cognitive annoyances)* in my TiddlyWikis, so much so that I prefer live with those ugly %20's in links, to

Charlie, your solution worked fine! <$transclude tiddler={{{ [addsuffix[_EN]]}}} /> Still I wonder why the macro way doesn't yield the expected result, but anyway thanksalot for the hint. I will duly commit myself to studying its syntax, quite obscure to me. Regards, CG On Sun, Aug 8, 2021 at

Re: [tw5] Re: cannot transclude a tiddler name built from inside a macro

Thanks for the prompt reply. I changed <> to $(currentTiddler)$ in the macro body, as \define getMeTiddlerName(a_suffix) $(currentTiddler)$$a_suffix$ still, transclude widget doesn't transclude: <$list filter="whateveFilterHere"> <$transclude tiddler=<> /> If I try to print to screen

[tw5] Re: cannot transclude a tiddler name built from inside a macro

I second CJ in saying that the {{{ [addsuffix[whatever]] }}} route is usually a better way to concatenate text, especially when you don't know much TiddlyWiki. You're getting bitten by not understanding text substitution and wikification

[tw5] Re: cannot transclude a tiddler name built from inside a macro

I'm thinking most folk prefer the macro route, and that makes sense to me. The way I'm wired, I usually go with transclusions unless I really don't have a choice. Can't explain it. *For the "variety is the spice of life" giggles*: <$list filter="whateveFilterHere"> <$transclude

When you use <>, it's actually creating a *link* to that tiddler. What you want in your macro is the plain substitutable (new word!) text. So try: \define getMeTiddlerName(a_suffix) $(currentTiddler)$$a_suffix$ On Sunday, August 8, 2021 at 9:08:29 AM UTC-7 CarloGgi wrote: > > Hallo, > quite

Hallo, quite new to TW and I love it, though it is dramatically underdocumented and the whole docs are an almost unusable mess. To my biggest astonishment, when I try to dynamically build the name of a tiddler from inisde a macro, that macro output cannot be used from within a transclude

Re: [tw5] CSS for tooltips in TiddlyWiki?

Thanks Jeremy and flanc... 1. This is for me, so in this case I am not worried about other users with touchscreens, or compatibility. 2. Let me go about this another way, then. First, here is the styling I did to create the custom tooltip: a[title]:hover::after { content: attr(title);

Re: [tw5] CSS for tooltips in TiddlyWiki?

Dave: On the lines of what Jeremy was saying, the Hint CSS Library is a great resource for customizable tool tips. (https://kushagra.dev/lab/hint/). Looking at the website, it seems relatively easy to use, and definitely applicable to TW, although I have never had need to use the library before.

Re: [tw5] CSS for tooltips in TiddlyWiki?

Hi Dave, Sadly, browsers do not allow web pages to apply styles to tooltips. It is possible to create fake tooltips in CSS and JavaScript that can be styled, but these approaches compromise accessibility and compatibility. Another point to bear in mind is that there's no guarantee that all

What I know so far: In the tiddler $:/plugins/kookma/shiraz/styles/semantic/bglowtone-colors Mohammad added the ability to change the background color of tiddlers - The tiddler above is tagged with $:/tags/Stylesheet - so it loads onto the entire TW5.html file - To use, create

[tw5] Re: Notes from the Coalface: Pasting URL's with pretty title

I agree with Tones, URLs should be human-readable when possible...if they're not, they're ugly. That means they consist of actual words, not internal IDs and random strings of characters, when possible, and you can tell what each component in the path represents. A bunch of URL-encoded

[tw5] Re: Retrieving the number of link paths to a tiddler

Thanks Tones! Looks like I may have been overthinking this – just :filter, working backwards from the match found and seeing when you hit the current tiddler, is sufficient: \define xcor-sort() [backlinks[]tag[Use]] :filter[links[]field:title] +[count[]] \define xcor-count()
