Hi Ollie, Mario, May I add that the NodeJS variant of TiddlyWiki addresses those situations quite well: when you can't do everything you want within the browser (because you want to autosave from Safari or your data is too big, or you want to share part of it, or you need access from across the Internet, etc.), serving your TW data from a server instead of a file sounds like a good option.
By the way, maintaining server-based TiddlyWikis doesn't necessarily mean that they must live on an external host: I'm running quite a few (too much) NodeJS TiddlyWiki on my local laptop, and some on my oldish Android phone. Cheers, X. -- Xavier Cazin On Mon, Oct 31, 2016 at 1:47 PM, PMario <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Ollie, > > On Monday, October 31, 2016 at 12:49:39 PM UTC+1, Ollie wrote: >> >> I really want to like this program but I cannot for the life of me figure >> out how to make autosave work in Safari 10.0.1 (latest stable as of today). >> It just tells me that I must save manually which is a deal-breaker for me. >> Is there any way I can make autosave work? >> > > Not out of the box.
