@Mark S. thanks for the quick response. Everything working well, sets tiddler type as expected. My problem seemed to be with the image file I was using. I tried it on different drives and it still wouldn't work. Changed the image and all went smoothly. Thanks again Mark Regards Scot On Thursd

Hi Mark S. I have tried to create an image tiddler but it does not show the image, just an error message. The image tiddler does not have a type, not sure whether that matters. I have put a wiki on tiddlyspot - hope this helps explain what I am doing wrong. http://scotwiki.tiddlyspot.com/ regar

Here's a version if you want to try it where you don't need to format as a data dictionary and you can enter your path and the name of your listing tiddler on the fly. BE SURE TO MAKE BACKUPS before attempting! Only lightly tested. Needs 5.1.20 or higher. This version will write over existing

Wow. 2017. Where does the time go? Who is this guy "mark", and why should I know him? This version below of the Make Images tiddler should create your tiddlers silently. BUT, you absolutely need to be sure that the tiddler with the photo name doesn't already exist, or it will write over it! I
