For each 'update,' I'm planning on sending out a complete TW, with all new posts (tiddlers) included (for those that don't wish to keep a TW around), and also a .json file containing just the new posts since the last update, for the folks who will be maintaining their own local TW. The method I was going to use was just to include a $:/DefaultTiddlers tiddler containing the titles of the updated posts, so that they would automatically open upon a refresh of the TW after importing the .json file. But after talking to my friend I see that would not work as well as I thought... Why do you need to put a carriage return after each item, since it's all in > the DefaultTiddlers which isn't usually used for viewing lists? > I thought the title of each tiddler in the file needed to be on its own line? eg: [[tiddler1]] [[tiddler2]] [[tiddler3]] Do your import tiddlers have anything in common? In particular, a tag?

But, no, they don't *ALL* share a common tag - MOST are tagged "Movie", some "Short Film" and then there's a handful of other tags... Plus, if I did a match on some tag within the DefaultTiddlers file, ALL tiddlers with that tag would attempt to open, including others that were already in the users' TW... If we were dealing with even moderately tech-savvy folks, it wouldn't be such a problem, but trust me, the majority of my users do well to know how to turn their computers on :-P - Even so, doing it the way I have envisioned, I will still have to write up detailed instructions for them on how to go into ControlPanel and delete the 'updated' tiddler titles after they've viewed and digested them. --Zaphod -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
