Folks,
I back my last post up with an example you can test on TiddlyWiki.com
;Exceptions before
<$list filter="[!is[system]prefix[The ]] [!is[system]prefix[A ]]
[!is[system]prefix[An ]] +[sort[]]">
</$list>
<$button>
<$list filter="[!is[system]!prefix[The ]] [!is[system]!prefix[A ]]
[!is[system]!prefix[An ]]">
<$action-setfield $field="sort-key" $value=<<currentTiddler>> />
</$list>
<$list filter="[!is[system]prefix[The ]]">
<$action-setfield $field="sort-key" $value={{{
[<currentTiddler>removeprefix[The ]] }}} />
</$list>
<$list filter="[!is[system]prefix[A ]]">
<$action-setfield $field="sort-key" $value={{{
[<currentTiddler>removeprefix[A ]] }}} />
</$list>
<$list filter="[!is[system]prefix[An ]]">
<$action-setfield $field="sort-key" $value={{{
[<currentTiddler>removeprefix[An ]] }}} />
</$list>
Set ALL sort Keys
</$button>
;Exceptions after
<$list filter="[!is[system]prefix[The ]] [!is[system]prefix[A ]]
[!is[system]prefix[An ]] +[sort[sort-key]]">
</$list>
Notes
- The above is a first draft, and it updates every tiddler not just
those with unwanted prefixes
- The code could be a list that feeds the prefixes into it and be much
more compact.
- There may be a way to sort based on title except for those with a
sort-key, but not sure yet
Regards
Tony
