Hi Mohammad,
While normally I would agree. However, my task titles are simply the
YYYY-MM-DD of the day I created them. This is because I leverage the
caption field to allow quick changes to the task name.
[image: tasks.JPG] <about:invalid#zClosurez>
Once I archive my task, the assumption is no more edits will occur and I
can file it. So I change the name to a concatenation of `$completed$
$caption$`. Now when I use TiddlyWiki's built in search textbox, the tasks
show up with information and not just `YYYY-MM-DD`
Thank you for the link, I had no idea when I was changing the title,
another tiddler was being created. Here is what I have that will work. I
might try to include a prompt for myself to confirm the rename. This way I
can see the empty tiddler before I copy into it and delete the original.
* $:/user/button/ArchiveTask*
\define archiveHere()
$(currentTiddler)$
\end
\define archiveHereButton(completed caption)
<$button tooltip={{$:/user/button/ArchiveTask/Hint}}
class=<<tv-config-toolbar-class>> param=<<archiveHere>> >
<!-- append archive tag -->
<$action-listops $tiddler=<<archiveHere>> $tags="+[append[task-archive]]" />
<!-- open the target tiddler that will be created during the rename-->
<$action-navigate $to="$completed$ $caption$" />
<!-- renaming tiddler will create a new one with existing content -->
<$action-setfield $tiddler=<<archiveHere>> title="$completed$ $caption$" />
<!-- delete the original -->
<$action-deletetiddler $tiddler=<<currentTiddler>> />
{{$:/core/images/chevron-down}}</$button>
\end
<!-- 2020-04-24 call macro and pass the fields to concatenate as new title
of task -->
<$macrocall $name="archiveHereButton" completed={{!!completed}}
caption={{!!caption}}/>
