[tw5] Re: LocalStorage vs SessionStorage

My first goal was to setup a mechanism to allow viewers of a published TiddlyWiki (well, a TiddlyWiki instance located on some website for viewing) to personalize the appearance of a TiddlyWiki and saving those configuration settings to local storage, such that a viewer's preferences are

[tw5] Re: A tester: Saving TiddlyWiki config settings to local storage

Upon startup, TiddlyWiki, via action-confirm widget, explains that the TiddlyWiki allows saving to local storage a few settings to personalize your experience viewing the TiddlyWiki. It also explains how to save your personal settings to local storage before closing the TiddlyWiki session.

[tw5] open specific page of pdf on button click

I use a lot of pdfs on an everyday basis and what I wanted to do was something along the lines of : *When a button is pressed, it should open the pdf with a specific page number in another tiddler. * This allows for referencing specific pages on the pdf which I find very useful at times.

Re: [tw5] The browser-storage plugin

Arg, I mean the plug-in is opt-in and opt-out for all tiddlers defined by the filter. By default, the plug-in itself can be set to either on or off by the author for all viewers. Maybe the setting to turn the plug-in on/off could be one of the tiddlers that can get saved to local storage to

Should anybody wonder how what I am prototyping is different from the Local Storage Plugin (very wildly different goals/behaviour in my mind), that is a discussion in this other Google Google thread . On Friday, March 11, 2022 at 1:09:15

Re: [tw5] The browser-storage plugin

The glaring difference is the plug-in is opt-in, by default, to local storage of everything intended for local storage by the TiddlyWiki author. Opt-out is manual and is opt-out of everything intended for local storage. What I am doing is opt-out by default, and opt-in local storage for only

To the contrary, I feel that most browser bookmark systems suck. It is very hard to organize and sort. TW will be a high improvement. On Thursday, March 10, 2022 at 3:50:46 PM UTC-5 Mark S. wrote: > On Thursday, March 10, 2022 at 11:10:37 AM UTC-8 albe...@gmail.com wrote: > >> It would seen

Re: [tw5] The browser-storage plugin

Quite awesome, except for one thing: it is opt-in by default, right? Within the boundaries of the filter, it is an all-in / all-out option, by default all-in for the viewer of that TiddlyWiki ? I cannot stand "opt-in" by default, leaving the user with the manual effort of opting out,

Re: [tw5] The browser-storage plugin

Out of the box, the browser-storage plugin saves $:/state/ tiddlers (apart from $:/state/temp/ tiddlers) and thus most of the UI state. There’s no configuration beyond installing the plugin and restarting. To make it save all configuration such as which toolbar buttons are hidden would require

It would be some nice if somebody put together a video and/or some documentation on how somebody can plop a TiddlyWiki out there on the web, and set it up so that viewers can set their own viewing preferences for that TiddlyWiki, such that every time he/she visits that TiddlyWiki, it always
