By default, TWC stores <<option>> settings (checkboxes and text inputs) as browser-based cookies. However, some browsers refuse to store cookies for documents accessed locally (i.e., "file://..."). Thus, while you can set the options during a session, your choices are not actually saved in between sessions and the plugin settings revert to their built-in defaults, as you have observed. In http://www.tiddlytools.com/#BreadcrumbsPluginInfo, I have documented the numerous configuration settings available, including <<option chkBreadcrumbsLimit>> and <<option txtBreadcrumbsLimit>>, which enable the 'breadcrumbs limit' feature and set the limit value itself, respectively. To store the option values *without using browser cookies*, you can use http://classic.tiddlywiki.com/#PersistentOptions, like this: * Open and edit the [[SystemSettings]] tiddler (see More>Shadowed sidebar tab) * Add the following text: chkBreadcrumbsLimit: true txtBreadcrumbsLimit: 3 * press "done" * save and reload your document to confirm that the setting is 'sticky'. That's it. As long as those entries are in that tiddler, any <<option>> values entered for the breadcrumbs will be automatically saved *in the document itself*, so that the setting is the same for everyone who views the document, regardless of how the browser handles cookie storage. enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios YOUR DONATIONS ARE VERY IMPORTANT!
