The other thing to point out is that the tags of a tiddler are stored as a field called "tags" behind the scenes. You can see this for yourself like this:
1. Visit http://five.tiddlywiki.com 2. Click through to the "more/shadows" tab and open the tiddler titled "$:/core/ui/FieldEditor" 3. Click the "edit" button to edit the tiddler 4. Locate the string "title tags text modified modifier" near the top of the tiddler 5. Delete the word "tags" from that string 6. Click done to save the tiddler 7. Now edit a different tiddler that has some tags (eg HelloThere) 8. Scroll down to see the field editor and you'll see that the "tags" field is now listed along with any other fields 9. Explore how the displayed "tags" field changes as you modify the tags via the interface at the top of the tiddler, and vice versa Best wishes Jeremy On Wed, Jul 3, 2013 at 9:52 PM, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: > Well, fields are data elements that are added to tiddlers.
