I'm thinking that the way to go about it, if it doesn't pose too much of a
compromise, is to make a tiddler for each year/month with a field like
"yearmo".
Then list all the year/months and use them to filter in a sub-list with a
regular expression and a couple of massaging macros, like:
*\define findme2() ^$(findme)$*
*<div class="tc-timeline">*
* <$list filter="[has[yearmo]sort[yearmo]]">*
* <div class="tc-menu-list-item">*
* <$view field="title" />*
*<$set name="findme" value={{!!yearmo}} >*
*<<findme2>>*
* <$list filter="[regexp:created<findme2>!sort[created]]">*
* <div class="tc-menu-list-subitem">*
* <$link to={{!!title}}>*
* <<timeline-title>>*
* </$link>*
* </div>*
* </$list>*
*</$set>*
* </div>*
* </$list>*
*</div>*
The compromise is that you have to remember to add a year/month label for
each active month. But you shouldn't have to modify your code.
