[tw] Error during import following Firefox upgrade

2017-04-25 Thread Michael
Hello, I am using an old version TiddlyWiki on Firefox. Despite being years old, it has worked very reliably. However following a recent update, the TiddlyWiki can no longer import tiddlers from another file. When I look in the Firefox debug console, there are no errors and just a single

Hi Guys, This is weird-- I have a tw on tiddlyspot, and I can edit and save on my laptop (Chrome and Firefox). However, on my Chromebook, using Chrome (of course) it is not possible to save. I click Save and I get the "Starting to save..." message but it never confirms that save was done. I

It's kind of like a public service announcement, along the lines of "don't cross the streams". If it seems to work then its probably OK for the current version. BUT, when you upgrade, the tiddler you made by making the change will still be in effect, so if there was something new and important

In the extremely locked down corporate environment I work in, TiddlyWiki itself is technically okay because it is 'just an html file'. Node.js (node.exe) is not okay because it's not on the approved application list. Firefox is not okay unless there is a good business need for it (basically

Hi Arlen, That would certainly be interesting to see. Don't know if I would make the shift, but I'm sure it would help others. To make it portable, I'd have to compile the TW into single file format and save it to a device. That might be a bit of a hassle on a regular basis. I'm pretty sure
