hi, Assumed I have the following structure on a windows system.
D: .. local drive d:\TiddlyWiki\empty.html .. empty TW d:\TiddlyWiki\pdfs\test.pdf .. a test pdf FileDropPlugin has a configuration section which can be edited default is /% !link [[%0|%1]] !end %/ result tiddler: test.pdf /% !link [[test.pdf|file:///D:/TiddlyWiki/pdfs/test.pdf]] !end %/ The problem is the D:/ which isn't the usb drive ====================== The description says ... %3 = relative path (if subdirectory of current document directory) ... new configuration: /% !link [[%0|%3]] !end %/ result tiddler: test.pdf contains /% !link [[test.pdf|./pdfs\test.pdf]] !end %/ referenced with: <<tiddler test.pdf##link>> should work with: F: .. usb drive f:\empty.html f:\pdfs\test.pdf hope this helps have fun!
