*Bulk actions with buttons (previously shared)*
Very easy and exposes a valuable piece of tiddlywiki knowledge worth learning. As you may know, on tiddlywiki.com the following produces a list of tiddlers; <$list filter="[tag[Field Operators]]"> </$list> you can use any filter to generate this list Now we can look for an action that will open tiddlers eg; https://tiddlywiki.com/#ActionNavigateWidget We wrap it in a button so we can trigger this action We wrap the action in the list so we can execute that action for every tiddler generated by the list Since there is no variable= on the list widget the currentTiddler variable changes for each item in the list so the default of currentTiddler is used. Since we did not provide the $to= parameter in the action-navigate it defaulted to currentTiddler <$button> <$list filter="[tag[Field Operators]]"> <$action-navigate $to="ActionWidgets"/> </$list> Click me! </$button> <$list filter="[tag[Field Operators]]"> </$list> *Why should you learn this deeply?, *it opens up any list to activate any action on every tiddler in the list. - delete a tag - remove a tag - delete a set of tiddlers - more more more WarningAlways consider showing the list of tiddlers to be impacted by the button with a seperate list as I have done above Regards On Friday, March 6, 2020 at 9:56:29 PM UTC+11, vpl wrote: > > Hi, > > Thanks a lot for your quick reponse > > I've tested and the button does not appear within the macro > So I externalized and left the macro alone as below, but this does not work > How may I trouble shoot or log what's happening during the execution of > the macro ?
