Re: [tw5] A HOWTO: My approach to modals now involves a transclusion template

Hey, thank-you, kuzi, for letting me know. I was worried that I had gone and broken something in there. If I can do something via transclusion instead of via macro, I much prefer transclusion (just the way this quirky sponge of mind works.) Glad that is of use to you ! BTW: just for a fun

Charlie, Thanks for the quick response! Somehow, I got to this tiddler , which appears to be the wrong one. I was able to copy your template successfully, and

G'day kuzi, If you wouldn't mind, can you let me know what isn't working? (link to the specific tiddler, if you wouldn't mind.) The template seems to be working fine to me. Please see this tiddler

@Charlie, Is your transclusion template still working? I'd like to implement something like this for my personal wiki, so that I may build my own glossary. On visiting your site, it looks like the template is not functioning properly. Should it still be working, or are there any alternatives

Hey Tony, That is a totally reasonable and sane approach. I'm just too darned set in my ways/thinking (stubborn, crotchety, pig-headed) to go there. Maybe too many years of making sure Oracle database tables always use automagic internal sequence numbers as primary key values because primary

Charlie, Since the tiddler name is the unique key to a tiddler, if you the capture link to a unique tiddler it simply depends on maintaining the title or the link will die. The links are a snapshot in time. You could create a tiddler you plan to never rename, and to do this, but to allow you

G'day Tones, I love Relink. I would go insane without it. However, it does not (nothing short of completely changing how TiddlyWiki works) fix this problem: https://intertwingularityslicendice.neocities.org/CJ_ProductReviews.html#Battery-Powered%20Equipment Sharing that link above (emails,

Charlie, As I may have mentioned before I am building a solution with tiddler serial numbers. However, The relink plugin works well to permit tiddler renames whilst retaining the links and references. However a tiddler serial number TSN allows this to go a lot further. That is why its

That's a very good idea, but I've been on the fence about that for a long time, chewing on some kind of design that distinguishes: - external link - internal tidder link that opens the tiddler in the story river - internal tiddler link that opens the tiddler in a modal - can't think

I keep wanting to setup a TiddlyWiki with HowTo's, but I am always frustrated with how TiddlyWiki URL's to tiddlers work. Being a tweaker by nature, I always start with good enough Tiddly Wiki titles and iteratively/incrementally am always refining them titles, approaching some far away

One small note - You can use the "tc-tiddlylink" class instead if you want to match the style TiddlyWiki uses for links. On Saturday, October 10, 2020 at 12:49:16 PM UTC-4 Atronoush wrote: > Hi Charlie, > Many thanks for this. Your approach to use specific titles (e.g A HOWTO) > makes it
