The TiddlerEncryptionPlugin has an option which automatically includes an 'excludeSearch' tag on encrypted tiddlers. If this option is disabled, after having been turned on when the tiddler was encrypted, then, the excludeSearch is left on the tiddlers after decryption, effectively leaving the tiddlers unsearchable. What you do is enable this option, then use a DecryptAll, which would remove the excludeSearch tag **IF it's the last tag**. If you want some encrypted tiddlers to remain unsearchable, simply move the excludeSearch tag to somewhere else in the tag list, probably the beginning.
With regard to Encrypt(tiddlyFolio), yes, all tiddlers would be encrypted with the prompt 'Encrypt(TiddlyFolio)' - not 'TiddlyFolio' as I think someone may have been thinking. Also, passwords are different from prompt strings. Prompt strings are just some text to help you remember what the password is. You always have to key in the password. You cannot encode the password into the macro - it would make the whole thing rather insecure if that was the case - view the tiddly contents and you would see the password! What you can do is encode the prompt string, otherwise, the plugin will ask for a password for each distinct prompt string it finds. When given a prompt string, the plugin will only decrypt tiddlers that have been tagged with that Decrypt(promptString) tag. Hopefully that doesn't confuse everyone too much. ...Lyall On Oct 10, 10:07 pm, PJO <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks Wolfgang, that works ok. > > I'm assuming FND's post refers to some internals I don't need to worry > about.
