[tw5] Re: What is the purpose of source field in a tiddler?
Thank you all. The reason is you could then write wiki text to turn the contents of any field name with -link into a link by the prefixes name Great tip. I decided to use source-url, source-book, source-person, depending on from where I collected the note. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

talha131 and PMario "source" is fine to use as you need in most tiddlers. It has special meaning, I believe, in plugins only (PMario?) The TW ADVICE is ... *source = The source URL associated with a tiddler* You can interpret this liberally. For instance, I have use it not for URLs, but book title references with no link.

Hi, There is only 1 field that you have to use to create a valid tiddler. The "title". That's it. Every other field name is just a convention. https://tiddlywiki.com/#TiddlerFields shows all fields that are used by core tiddlers. As far as I know, It's OK to use source. Especially as you want to use it in the exact way as it is described. I'll have a closer look at the core code but I'm pretty sure there is no side effect. -mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

This answer lays with yourself. Perhaps fine if your not editing the plugin Tiddler. However can I suggest source-link The reason is you could then write wiki text to turn the contents of any field name with -link into a link by the prefixes name E.g. source is the title of a link stored in source-link Perhaps a nice little defacto standard Tony On Monday, 7 September 2020 at 07:17:57 UTC+10 talha131 wrote: > Though I could not find official documentation, but it seems source field > has special usage in TW. > > For example, this edition uses source field for creating a hierarchy of > tiddlers. > > http://tw5.scholars.tiddlyspot.com/ > > It is also used for the source URL of a plugin. > > (optional) Source URL of plugin > > https://tiddlywiki.com/static/Plugin%2520Fields.html > > My understanding is that it is better to avoid source and use some other > custom field for my use case. > > Do let me know if my understanding is incorrect. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

[tw5] Re: What is the purpose of source field in a tiddler?
Though I could not find official documentation, but it seems source field has special usage in TW. For example, this edition uses source field for creating a hierarchy of tiddlers. http://tw5.scholars.tiddlyspot.com/ It is also used for the source URL of a plugin. (optional) Source URL of plugin https://tiddlywiki.com/static/Plugin%2520Fields.html My understanding is that it is better to avoid source and use some other custom field for my use case. Do let me know if my understanding is incorrect. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
