Hello Eric, I have an issue about testing new core versions.
Preliminary. When 2.7.1 beta was released, I downloaded it, but haven't given it a try in an actual use. After a while, I decided to add one more TiddlyWiki to those I use and took that one. I put some content (fortunately, not much) there but there was a problem with saving with TiddlySaver (I had to use FireFox instead), so I decided to upgrade the core. I've run the update engine, but what I got was spoiled content (before upgrade, it contained non-latin letters; after -- as well but mostly some hieroglyphs, may be Chinese). There were some piculiar details about it: for instance, some tiddler titles got "created=" parts and texts -- parts of <pre> and may be <div> tags (parts of the storage html code). Now my point is, I'd like to test the update engine, but currently I have no opporunity to do this. My 2.7.1 TW sais: "This TiddlyWiki appears to be already using the latest version of the core code (2.7.1). You can continue to upgrade anyway to ensure that the core code hasn't been corrupted or damaged" I tried this, and fortunately this haven't spoiled the content. However, to be sure that the new version is "safe", I have to test upgrading from 2.7.1 to 2.7.2 beta. Is there any way to do so? May be it's worth extending the upgrade engine so that it allows two options: update to the main current release or update to the current "nightly built"? Best regards, Yakov. суббота, 4 мая 2013 г., 4:51:30 UTC+4 пользователь Eric Shulman написал: > > Greetings All! > > I'm pleased to announce that TiddlyWiki Classic, version 2.7.2 BETA 1, > is now available for viewing/download, here: > http://www.tiddlywiki.com/beta > > IMPORTANT: This revision is on an shortened release schedule and, > barring any reports of critical "show stopper" errors, will be > promoted to full release within the next week. > > This revision includes the following changes: > > * Backstage>import: > See https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/tiddlywiki/issues/116 > > Importing tiddlers now uses "FileReader" API whenever available > (currently supported by Chrome, Firefox 20+, etc.).
