Hi all,
I am trying to export tiddlers from a TW by specifying only the top level 
tiddler of a tag hierarchy using advanced search. Some of the tiddlers to 
be exported are not tagged by the top level tiddler but by the children of 
the top level tiddler.

Basically I would like to export the whole output given by:
<<toc-selective-expandable 'MyTopLevelTag'>> 

I've included some thoughts and attempts below:

1. I have not managed to get this to work using "kin filter" by Bimlas. 
Maybe I am doing something wrong and also my wiki is quite large so I am 
struggling to run kin filter within advanced search. The wiki becomes 
unresponsive for a while so it takes a while to test various search syntax 
variations.

2. One other approach would be to use [[MyTopLevelTag]tagging[]] and 
combine the results with another instance of tagging[]. I would then keep 
doing this recursively until I would reach the bottom of the tag tree but 
again I have not figured out how to do this within advanced search.

3. Taking all the tiddlers tagged with MyTopLevelTag and returning their 
respective tags using tags[] (e.g. "[tag[MyTopLevelTag]tags[]]") will also 
need to be done recursively, so I have the same problem as above. 

4. I also thought of using the subfilter operator but I cannot run this 
within advanced search which offers the export function. By the way, are 
there other ways to export results as JSON or other formats from outside 
"advanced search"?

Any insights would be much appreciated. Also please flag any of my 
misunderstandings and bits where I have gotten the wrong end of the stick.

I'll also try to have another go with a clear head tomorrow.

Best wishes 
Harris
