thanks for the feedback. I will add some instructions to install the tw2parser plugin to the demostration tiddlywiki.
With tw5, it is possible to copy tiddlers from one tiddlywiki to another by drag and drop. If you go to a tiddlywiki and find a link a to tiddler, you can drag that link (which causes its contents to be copied by the browser) and drop it into another tiddlywiki (which cause the tiddler to be pasted/imported). Plugins are a type of tiddler, and installing and can achieved by this copying method. On Wednesday, October 8, 2014 12:59:17 PM UTC+2, Michel van der List wrote: > > Thank you, I saw those posts.

If you go to http://tiddlywiki.com/plugins/tiddlywiki/tw2parser/ and open the control panel (click the cog Icon above the search box on the right) then click the plugins tab the tw2parser plugin is listed as a box at the top - drag this box (you should see a 'label' with the name $:/plugins/tiddlywiki/tw2parser <http://tiddlywiki.com/plugins/tiddlywiki/tw2parser/#%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Ftiddlywiki%2Ftw2parser> being dragged) and drop it into your tiddlywiki Cheers BJ > On Wednesday, October 8, 2014 5:18:12 AM UTC-4, BJ wrote: >> >> The tw2parser plugin is shown here: >> http://tiddlywiki.com/plugins/tiddlywiki/tw2parser/ >> >> If you could explain how you installed it (and how it is not working) >> then maybe we can fix it - this stuff is all fairly new. >> >> there are some notes on the differences between tw5 and twc wikitext here: >> >> http://compare-tw2-tw5.tiddlyspace.com/ >> >> BJ >> >> On Tuesday, October 7, 2014 7:37:15 PM UTC+2, Michel van der List wrote: >>> >>> Thanks for that explanation.
