I assume the method requires an include, such i tried here Work History [rev. #1674697] (it's not possible to get you a link to the revision in either firefox or chrome; the links are broken) use case: list all tiddlers tagged 'History' in chronological order, that is, fields start_date end_date link-to-tiddler ordered by end_date (reverse). but this strategy isn't going to work if the list filter only is implemented in TW5. In that case, I will have to try the ForEachTiddlerPlugin ., or some other core functionality in TWC -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
