Thanks for the response! Yes that really helps - I had indeed missed the overridden and system tiddlers advanced search, and the haschanged filter will prove very helpful, so thanks for taking the time
> Since it's tedious to redefine those lists all the time by hand I'd already looked at and watched your video for your very impressive bundler plugin, but I think I'm stuck at first principles again: I've proved to myself that if I have a (standard) tiddler that lists other (standard) tiddlers, and I drag that between TiddlyWikis, its a shallow copy so doesn't copy the referenced tiddlers (though this must be different for plugin tiddlers since dragging a single tiddler does precicely this, that's precicely a factor that defines these as 'plugins'). So that's what I understand the principle of your bundler is: it essentially creates a deep clone of the children when supplied with a tiddler-consisting-of-links, am I close? So, I would understand the process of using your bundler to capture settings like so: i'd use the output of the overridden/system advanced-search-filter tiddlers that you mentioned to manually create a tiddler-of-links based on them, and then use that tiddler as the input to the bundler, to deep-clone them to a bundle for import. But from watching your video I don't seem to have that process quite right: your plugin seems more than that because, as you say, it seems to facilitate making a custom filter to automatically remove the temp and other tiddlers you mention above from the search results each time its run - to whit: the input that drives your bundler is not a tiddler-of-link, but is instead a filter expression. Am I right? But since some of these tiddlers-to-filter-out seem to just need fully-specifying, I imagine the filter expression gets quite long, Maybe I've misunderstood, I will investigate further. I had actually seen the diff functionality on import, what I wanted at the time though was a retrospective way to find the difference between 2 wikis that had been seperately created over a long period of time. I haven't investigated the structure of a tiddlywiki file but i'm sure it would be possible to write an external tool to inspect each tiddler object for comparison given an html, or I guess I could have exported an html-style wiki into the node-style .tid format and just used a file diffing tool...too late now ;-) thanks again On Fri, 26 Mar 2021 at 10:05, PMario <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > This may be interesting too!
