Anders, you sweet and huggable you. That way of getting tiddlers is new to me, and just gave me a fantastic idea.
Now knowing that URL's like https://tiddlywiki.com/#:[title[Saving%20on%20TiddlySpot]] and https://tiddlywiki.com/#:[delivery[Service]] Then having auto-generated/auto-created uid fields on tiddlers ... Say a tiddler titled "Tiddler XYZ", if it had a uid field with value "tid-000001", then a link like this should work: https://whatever-your-tiddlywiki/#:[uid[tid-000001]] It is just a matter of having an alternate permalink button that generates that uid link. Yay ? On Wednesday, May 5, 2021 at 10:03:07 AM UTC-3 Anjar wrote: > Hi, > > I agree with you and see the problem.
