Perhaps one of the clever folks here can explain to me why this doesn't work the way I expected.
I'm working on a wiki of the Old Testament books arranged in the classical Jewish order. In case you are unfamiliar with that, the books should appear in this order: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi, Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Song of Songs, Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes, Esther, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, I Chronicles, II Chronicles I would like to set it up to read the sections using the toc-tabbed-internal-nav function. As close as I can tell, that function doesn't support a sort parameter so I am setting up a list using the field "list-before" in each of the 39 tiddlers.So the tiddler titled Genesis has a field list-before that contains Exodus, the tiddler Exodus has a list-before field that contains Leviticus, etc down through the tiddler I Chronicles which has a list-before field which contains II Chronicles. The current Tiddlywiki Prerelase 5.whatever gives this order for the tiddlers in toc-tabbed-internal-nav as: II Chronicles,2 Samuel, 1 Kings, Judges, 1 Samuel, Song of Songs, Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes, Esther, Daniel, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Nehemiah, I Chronicles, 2 Kings, Isaiah, Hosea, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Genesis, Exodus, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Ezra, Leviticus, Joel, Amos, Zechariah, Malachi, Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Zephaniah, Haggai, Nahum, Habakkuk There are stretches that are in the right order but the only tiddler that doesn't appear in another tiddler's list-before field is near the middle of the order while the only tiddler with an empty list-before field is the first one on the list. There are several jumps where the tiddlers are in the wrong order. My II Chronicles did have an empty list-before field but when I deleted that field, 2 Samuel which does have an appropriate list-before field, goes to the front of the list. If I do a <$list filter="[tag[book]]"> I get the same order. Something is going on that I don't understand and I'm hoping someone can explain it to me. Is this simply too long a group for Tiddlywiki 5 to handle using list-before or list-after (which didn't work either)? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
