Hello, In order to upgrade from 2.6.2 I understand there is only one option : to download a fresh 2.6.4 and then to import the tiddlers. Since it is not so easy when a TW is tweaked, I was wondering if somebody could write a plugin with the new upgrade core code packed inside (and some javascript

Is there any reason why simply downloading and using the newest TiddlySaver.jar isn't sufficient to upgrade? I did that, and my tiddly is still functioning, but nothing seems to be any different. Maybe I was already using the latest, since I just started with tiddly this March, and just grabbed

I'm just back from holiday, and wanted to say that TiddlyWiki's death is greatly exaggerated. We'll find a way to work around the restrictions that browsers have placed on the upgrade/import functionality. Osmosoft continues to invest in TiddlyWiki, both directly and as part of our work in

Hi All, As far as I know we don't have a process like voting. But I am very much in favour of, and so would vote for, the suggestion from whatever to have a default download for the latest stable version, and optional downloads for newer (AND older) versions addressed by their version number

Chris, the issue with deprecated functions is that wikifyPlain() was accidentally removed rather than just deprecated - this is fixed in 2.6.4. As for waiting for 2.6.4, there is now a tentative 2.6.4 released (see tiddlywiki-group-dev) which you can use. The reason that 2.6.4 is not fully

I'm not sure if I understand the difference between a fully announced and tentative release. The difference is that we are not yet recommending that general users upgrade. Only developer users should upgrade. I know that new users get 2.6.4, but new users tend not to have plugin compatibility

Hi! I have a few suggestions. Instead of having simply empty.html, why not use versions in name, like empty263.html? That way, you could use versioning like File- Hippo. For example, on tiddlywiki.com, you could have the normal download page with the latest final/stable version, but you could also

Just to be clear, just because the upgrade feature is not working - it does not mean the product doesn't work on popular browsers. As Tobias points out it is possible to download an empty TiddlyWiki 2.6.3 and import content into there. TiddlyWiki still allows you to save content to itself which is

Ton, I'm not sure why discussing a problem hurts TW and the community. Surely it's best to be open with any problems. I also don't really understand the reasoning behind reverting to 2.6.2. It's not that the upgrade functionality became broken in 2.6.3, it's that the upgrade functionality that

On Upgrading... I never really understood the need of a dedicated, internal updgrade process. Why not just import all tiddlers from an existing tiddlywiki into a plain TiddlyWiki of the new version? If there are plugin errors, you will sure see them. Also, I don't think it is reasonable to

Paulo, your statement that TW is dead without explanation is rather provocative. My view is that it is still very useful in its niche, although that niche has changed with time and with other developments on the web (not least TiddlySpace). Perhaps you no longer find it useful, but that does not
