Please don't modify the base plugins. Instead, you should add a companion 'config' tiddler to override or add the desired functionality. In this particular instance, you should create a new tiddler called [[SwitchThemePluginConfig]], containing the desired code. Tag this tiddler with 'systemConfig'. During startup processing, plugins are invoked in alphanumeric order (by title). Thus, by using the "...Config" suffix on your additional code-bearing tiddler, it is guaranteed to be invoked immediately after the unmodified plugin code. > The problem lies then with TiddlyThemes which doesn't use a naming > scheme, but overwrites standard tiddlers (well i guess that's easier > for a new user). TiddlyThemes uses a much older approach to defining and switch themes. In fact, many of the 'themes' contained there pre-date the implementation of the theme mechanism. In addition, some of those these are so old that they are no longer fully compatible with the current defaults for TW document page layout or CSS Stylesheets (e.g. StyleSheetLayout, StyleSheetColors, etc). You might be better off just trying to reproduce the look-and-feel of a particular theme, using current theme definition methods, rather than trying to adapt the older definitions to the current TW default templates and styles. enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
