If you are using BobEXE the server images plugin should be there, you just have to enable it using the Bob interface. Go to $:/ControlPanel -> Bob Settings -> This Wiki -> Manage Plugins then click the `Update Plugin List` button, check the plugins you want to active, click the `Save Plugin Se

Awesome - thanks Jed, More basically though for when it *is* available. The only plugins I'm used to are kind of drag and drop from other tw sites. I don't understand how to install from github. Do I just drag and drop all the .js ones over? Copy and paste the .js ones into my tw? On Friday, O

stobot, I have it working, but I think that I am using modified versions that I never got around to putting online anywhere accessible. The different versions of ServerImages and Bob use slightly different paths which makes them not play well together. I will try and push out new versions of Bo

Hi Kelli Jae Baeli, I certainly would second that, please do try-out Jed's software. Bob has a learning curve for th uninitiated and Jed is still making changes for the better, but the potential is great! Cheers! Edm. Op woensdag 3 juli 2019 23:32:52 UTC+2 schreef Jed Carty: > > If you are using

As is evident from your snapshot you are still using tiddlydesktops backstage. It is not for this use. Stop doing it and follow the instructions already shared on building your own wiki. With all due respect you are doing it wrong and you can not expect effective support if you are not following

take a look at this example tiddler, drag and drop the .tid file onto your TW or use import in the TW is very customizable whin it comes to combining text with other multimedia If you don't mind working with some html-- typing in between div tags-- this makes a tiddler into a grid for display

Do you have an image called "test.jpg" in the images folder below where your TW file is? I'm sure PMario did not mean to imply that a file "test.jpg" will magically appear in the images directory. Your image of your directory doesn't show the names of any image files, so it's hard to give literal

Mark, I had considered in the past allowing images to be imported into tiddlers but providing a mechanism to export them to \images leaving behind the _canonical_uri contents, if done with a batch process even easier. On a node server it may be more complex. Regards Tony On Thursday, July 4,

If you are using everything locally and you are managing a lot of wikis than I suggest you try out Bob. I made it to manage a lot of wikis. Also it can help a lot with managing images, there is a plugin for it that saves the images externally and creates a _canonical_uri tiddler for it automati

You omitted that you also have to save an image file to .\images and copy the name. It's a lot of steps, especially compared with other products like Evernote. Dragging and dropping the images, would be the most straight-forward approach, and, if I understand correctly, should be feasible with

Hi Kelli, Welcome to the club! The easiest way is, to store your wiki.html file in a directory and your images in an eg: \images subfolder. If you want to use them in TW just - create a new tiddler. eg: test.jpg - create a field named: _canonical_uri - with the value: .\images\test.j

You can drag and drop images into your TW (at least on Firefox ... don't know about the others). On Firefox, you can also use the built-in screen shot tool and copy the text to the clipboard. Then go to your TW and paste. Import. Rename. These methods are easy, but in the past they came with th
