Mohamad, Sorry, I did not mean to imply you were not putting in the effort, more that you needed to direct it elsewhere first. Although it is great to see you are keen and jumping into it, it can just make it a little hard to support you. Don't be shy to keep asking, but trust in your ability

Mohamad, Part of the issue here is you have not yet learned the basic syntax of tiddlywiki yet, we all start somewhere, my instructions should have being self evident if you had just rudimentary tiddlywiki syntax, all of which I learned from TiddlyWiki.com I did answer this latest question

The information you are after is in my earlier post *<> {{!!field}} *is the display replace this with *{{{ [all[current]get[field]format:date[]] }}}* It is what is inside the span that gets coloured using style attribute, thus what is inside the span is what is displayed,

[tw5] Re: Highlighting duplicates in lists

Thank you tones The real life example is to evaluate duplicate dates, so the actual real values populating the fields are not 1 ,2 , etc.. they are actual dates , IE . 2021062506295, 20210811055859000,etc. and so what i was trying is to do is have the highlighted duplicate values

[tw5] Re: Highlighting duplicates in lists

Mohammad, I am confused, until now the fields field_example, field_example1, field_example2 did not contain dates. - Are you trying to convert these to dates? - the view widget format=date only works on tiddlywiki full serial number dates! Perhaps step back and describe what you

[tw5] Re: Highlighting duplicates in lists

HI tones, sorry i guess i asked the wrong question, what i wanted to know is where to place the widget in the code , if i do it that way , it no longer highlights duplicates <>: | <$list filter="[all[current]get[field_example]] [all[current]get[field_example2]]

[tw5] Re: Highlighting duplicates in lists

Look for and use the viewWidget and use the format date with a template, or the format relativedate Get into the habit also of searching in tiddlywiki.com to learn how to do things. [image: Snag_c8a06a9.png] eg; <$view field=created format=date template=""/> <$view field=created

[tw5] Re: Highlighting duplicates in lists

Mohamad, I am happy to look at solving the problem presented but my suspicion remains that there may be a different way to put the question in the first place. Sometimes a question can be rephrased such that the answer is simpler to find. - In this we have multiple tiddlers, with

[tw5] Re: Highlighting duplicates in lists

Mohamad, My solution above can be used to do this for multiple fields/criteria because it re-examines the whole list every time. This makes it logically very flexible but revisiting the whole list for every special field for each tiddler is not very high performance. There are other

[tw5] Re: Highlighting duplicates in lists

Hi, is it possible to use the same code for multiple criteria, so highlight in red all occurrences of duplicates in field A and also field B within the same list of tiddlers? i guess my question is can a Get / then be used within the same filter multiple times for multiple fields/criteria

I can see by other replies that my example that showed the logic was not enough for the OT Here I turn it into an unordered list with duplicates in red. <$list filter="[all[]prefix[New]has[field]]"> get[field]match{!!field}then[color: red;]] }}}> <> {{!!field}} Have I fully addressed

I would say it is possible with this general idea: <$list filter="[tag[tests]]"> {{!!title}} .mywrap.{{!!title}}:not(:first-of-type) {background:yellow} The above will likely *not* work right away but it shows the idea. For example, for the title to work as a class name it must follow css

[tw5] Re: Highlighting duplicates in lists

Mohamad, One way is to sort in the parameter order before you can detect that the last is the same as the current ie a duplicate. The other way is for each tiddler, search for the same parameter elsewhere, if more than one found then it is duplicate before displaying the parameter. - If
