Well, to try your xlist macro, I have 1. the four category tiddlers (Time periods, Places, Domains and Topics) created as plain old tiddlers for now.
2. A few subcategory tiddlers created and tagged with the titles of the category tiddlers (Germany tagged Places, People tagged Domains, etc) I know I will want at least two other kinds of tiddlers: a) index tiddlers (Period x by domain index, Domain x by period, etc) b) entries (John Calvin, tagged Reformation, Switzerland, Theology, People) >From there, what do I need to do to try this out? You have various instructions and examples, but the problem is there are so many things to look at, it is not easy to see the step-by-step process. You even have other macros and templates, so it looks like what you did in your file is more complicated than what you are asking the user to do. Not being critical, just trying to point out stuff so you see where you can improve the docs. Dave On Wed, Jan 14, 2015 at 6:04 PM, David Gifford <[email protected]> wrote: > I could switch to tags.
