Hi w, I believe you are aware that LinkifyPlugin does no redirecting — in the sense that you cannot open a url like...
http:/tw.org#*foo* ...redirecting to... http:/tw.org#*foobar* * * ...only because... http:/tw.org#*LinkifyConfig* * * ...would have a line that reads... foobar|foo* ...which it currently only does in order for the text in perhaps a tiddler... http:/tw.org#*bar* ...to automagically linkify the word *foo* to... http:/tw.org#*foobar* What I am trying to say is that there really is no entity called *foo *from which anything redirects — it's only a pattern that could match anything. ̶̶ Search currently provides relevant results as it finds whatever you're looking for and then... 1. opens the tiddler *bar* 2. containing *foo* in its text 3. which lets you navigate to *foobar* via linkification While I could (theoretically) overwrite whatever core code renders a missing tiddler text so as to check if a linkify pattern matches, there never really has been any (perma)link created that pointed to it, e.g. for use in an external site. Out of the blue, hardly anyone just tries out urls like that, e.g. http://www.tw.org/#*letMeTypeAnyThing* ...and I don't find it desireable to cater for such thing unless it were common www practice or had the potential to become that. But even if it did, I'd probably much rather display search results. So, right now, the *redirecting* topic feels a bit imaginary to me. After all *Tiddly** ...is not *pedia, so I'd challenge you to provide a solid argument for why this or other *pedia style features are desireable. For example, you could ask yourself five times in a row why you want that.... *I want *pedia style redirects.* *Why?* Because it helps me see where I was redirected from. *Why (redirected)?* Because... *Why (...)?* Because... If at the end of this exercise, the argument chain brings you somewhere that sounds like a requirement to cater for, I'll gladly bring it to fruition.
