Ah, that worked -not immediately; had tried this, then saved, and still i got the _canonical_uri method- but it seems you have to save AND reboot TW. After i did this, it does indeed embed the image directly into my index.html, as i can see when i change the tiddler datatype to TW5, as you

Thanks @Mark, but... This is strange: My usual way of adding external content in TiddlyDesktop has been via the "Import" tool... But now that i've added the "External Attachments" plugin, attempting to add an image via the "Import" tool automatically triggers that _canonical_uri method from

Thanks for the quick reply, @Jeremy... But i am slow to understand: when you say "Image tiddlers are self-contained unless the _canonical_uri field is present pointing to an external path" -does this mean that the image itself (i.e. the binary code that paints the image on my screen) is

Thanks, @Jeremy : this makes the plugin useful to me, in that i can drag in a set of images from my desktop, and get a new tiddler for each one, with a navigable URL in format "/Users/walt/Desktop/imagename.jpg" -providing that i've configured the plugin to "Use absolute paths..." Of those two

In fact @jeremy, even locally stored files were still giving me the long list of unrelated tiddlers to import... But since i took advice of @saq and deleted the preexisting tiddler "$:/Import" , that seems to have resolved this problem of getting a long list of tiddlers to import; now i just

Correct, @Jeremy : If you mean by "main window" the one that launches on startup, which displays the several wikis i am managing with TiddlyDesktop, that's not the one... But rather: in the window that holds the wiki i am currently managing, if i drag an image to that window, a green bar
