Hi Walt, i know , and i guess you will have to live with the red warning , that unless you put some place holder dummy data in the start and end date fields for all other tiddlers .. and yes 100% , the gnatt chart plugin you mentioned is far superior, i wish i had the knowledge to integrate it with tidly wiki :)
who knows, maybe its on somebodys road map somewhere :) On Monday, May 31, 2021 at 1:22:36 PM UTC+2 ludwa6 wrote: > Thanks @mohamed for the good explainer; given that help, i got it working > now as was probably intended -except maybe for one thing: > That red error icon is now when clicked returning me a list of ALL > tiddlers that don't include both a start date and an end date, which > renders this plugin suitable only for a site wherein you want every tiddler > to have a corresponding plot on the Gantt chart.
