It's not only one db per device, you can do it that way, but you are not restricted to it. > Is the content of each database a subset of tiddlers? > Exactly. Each database is just a subset of tiddlers, not an entire TW. You choose if you want everything in one bundle or if you want to split. But because tiddlers are also parts of TW each database can result on a TW with a totally different look, everything on the same file depending on which database you choose. > Or is it the full set of common tiddlers plus the specific ones that one > happens to edit at that device?

If you made some changes (new tiddlers), and someone add new tiddlers to the online one, then when you save your offline copy someone is going to loose data. Note self keeps a copy of all the tiddlers, that could look the same, and then when you back online the databases "communicates" between them and exchange/share tiddlers. You don't need to take care anymore of reviewing that your save does not overwrites some changes that are not present on the copy you are saving. > The only difference seems to be that if I want to save my changes while > still offline then when I click save it is stored as a local file. > Apart from what I have explained, this is another important difference. If you click save, it is stored as a local file, true, and then you have to open that file to be able to continue editing and adding more content. If you open a previous file by mistake (and this have happened to me several times) you will find yourself again in the situation of losing data. > > The conflict with loss of data seems to be a problem in both variants. > Could you explain why?

WOW, I just tried what you described and I ended with a "Draft of 'Draft of 'Draft of 'New Tiddler 1'''" tiddler. In any case, you can safely ignore the name conflicts for drafts as long as you give a name to the tiddler and save it without any error. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
