David. you're always so generous in sharing your use cases and reasoning. Much appreciated.
Reading the post it's interesting to ponder how I'd approach the needs. I'm sure there are subtleties in your own solutions that might make them preferable for you, so here are my own ideas to, if nothing else, confirm that your own are better for your own specific case; *1. Flipping title field and showname field* > Assuming the dynamic and the static versions have different URL's, you can use a conditional viewtemplate (e.g grand TWizard @Tobias has a writeup on that) that shows name depending on url. URL can be detected using Buggy J's location macro, that I use in e.g Public Sidebar <http://publicsidebar.tiddlyspot.com/>. With conditional templates you could probably even do it so that it shows you the static title as a textwidget editor, i.e in viewmode,perhaps just below the regular title, so that it can be easily edited. And in static, the normal title is hidden and the static title shows instead using regular title formatting. *2. Toggling edit stylesheet and publish stylesheet* > [...] add links to tiddler B that doesn't exist yet, but I am not ready to > actually create tiddler B and add content. I just want to focus on tiddler > A. > This is a prime reason why the @ttention plugin <http://attention.tiddlyspot.com/> was made. It lets you add content to other tids, regardless if those other tids exist or not. (I just realized that just maybe I should extend it so that one could add tags to that other tid too...) *3. Buttons for links* > > Since the links are to filenames, I need pretty links for everything. So I > created buttons, one to wrap filenames [...] > I recall grand TWizard @Eric describing on the boards some setup that lets you use relative paths involving a fallback when there is no file. Something along those lines. I wouldn't be surprised if the other grand TWizard @Tobias has picked up on it and poblished something. (Yes, poblished = polish + publish ;-) *4. Display macro* > > I thought the display macro would not work with static html, but it works > great, so I use it to condense longer indexes of links. Very nice tool. > Appreciated if you add some clue to where the "display macro" can be found? I rings a bell as if it is something recent from one of the rising tiddly stars in the community (you know who you are guys! ;-) but a quick search on the boards didn't give me anything. I am using these statics at our main site (http://www.giffmex.org > <http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.giffmex.org&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNG_4U4i9FB39w_vufbA0xQFxYoBgQ>) > > > What a sweet looking family!!!! ;-) <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
