Tobbe, If the person tiddler is tagged with a date, of course another person tiddler can be tagged with the same date. You only put person information in the person tiddler and date information (if any) in the date tiddler (that matches the tag).
If you use the new here tiddler you can go to a person tiddler and add all their "children here", The children will then be tagged with the parent. You can then copy the Children tags and add them to the other parent. So a child will be tagged with its parents, and there children tagged by there name. Good luck with it all. TonyM If you have not found an easy way to do it with TiddlyWiki, you have missed something. www.tiddlywiki.com On Fri, Sep 25, 2009 at 16:06, Tobbe <[email protected]> wrote: > > Aha, > > Thanks for the tip Anthony, I try that.
