How far I've gotten: (revised post Danielo's comments) 1) Created a Cloudant account: https://jwhoneycutt.cloudant.com
1A) In Cloudant -> Account -> CORS: Enabled CORS and restricted to specific domain:https://noteself.github.io 2) Open https://noteself.github.io/ in Google Chrome (for some reason people keep saying to start TW5's in Google Chrome and use them in FireFox <#FireFox>) 2A) Download (instead of Online) - gives me Empty.html in Downloaded folder 2B) In the GettingStarted <#GettingStarted> tiddler I change the following entries: - Notebook Name: JWH_NoteSelf - CouchDB <#CouchDB> URL: https://jwhoneycutt.cloudant.com (right?) - Remote database name: JWH_NoteSelf - Page title: JWH_NoteSelf 3) I click on Save Config button - and a popup appears: "noteself.github.io says: Configuration has been changed and saved. It is necessary to reload the window. Are you OK with it?" -> I click OK 4) A "Loading" paints green from left to right for a few seconds, and the red circlecheck icon turns gray. It is next to a new button on the sideBar labelled OFFLINE (In the silent video this converts to a cloudcheck icon) 4A) Click the OFFLINE box in SideBar (if you see one you don't have a cookie) and enter your Cloudant Username and PW 4B) A yellow popup states: "PouchAdaptor <#PouchAdaptor> (time/date stamp) Login Failed" 4C) According to Danielo, the OFFLINE box should have converted to a Cloud icon (but it didn't) At this point, the JWH_NoteSelf.html file gives a big red JavaScript error, no matter how I try to access it. I tried bringing it into Atom (the text editor I am trying to learn to use), but can't find what to change to fix the html file and make it functional again. Danielo writes: I don't understand what are you trying to accomplish with those steps. If you pretend to use NoteSelf hosted somewhere else, I mean, different from https://noteself.github.io/online that is not the correct way. First, you should download the offline version, which is ready to work out of noteshelf domain. Then, on you cloudant account you should enable cors for any domain, because you are going to serve your file from a different domain. You see the RSOD because the online version depends on some stuff that is only available when it is loaded from https://noteself.github.io/online. There is a big green button on https://noteself.github.io/ to get the offline version. Try it out, but with your first 4 steps you have a working NoteSelf instance "installed" in your browser that will work exactly the same as the offline version. There is no to little sense to download the file to your computer I don't understand something fundamental here. I keep ALL my TiddlyWiki.html files in DropBox. I sync when wifi is available. When I am away from wifi (at work for me) I enter tons of tiddlers and make sure that I sync my DropBox account online when I get home - definitely before I access a TW5.html file from my home desktop (or else I have competing versions). This scenario causes me to have to be very careful about keeping the latest version of a TW5.html file either on my laptop or synced to DropBox. It is this background that has me interested in TWEdit5 for iOS (still in Beta) because I REALLY want to be able to create permanent tiddlers on my iPhone from anywhere. It is this same backdrop that has me trying to make NoteSelf work - I can use it RIGHT NOW - yes, but I can't get to my edited changes later... at least, not yet. By the Way - thank you for your work, help, and comments - I really see how noble a cause this can become.
