Yes. If someone had promised to stick with development of TWC for 25 years, that's the route I would have gone. Once a product is orphaned (or even semi-orphaned), plugin development ceases and there's no guarantee that it will survive browser changes.
Nested lists work typically by changing the environment inside the <$list>...</$list> (call it LL) set. Inside the environment, the "currentTiddler" is switched to whatever the outer list sees. Each inner list takes the prior LL as it's starting point for it's filter -- UNLESS the outer list specifies a variable instead of the default. The problem with LL is that it's not a real loop where you can do things like apply logic. Any logic would have to be applied inside the filter. But there are currently almost no core logic choices in the filter options, though there are requests outstanding for months. Also, each outer LL hands it's environment to an inner LL one by one, so the inner LL can not collect and sort the final results So .... <$list> is NOT an complete replacement for the for/while plugin nor easily being able to use your own javascript. -- Mark On Thursday, January 11, 2018 at 11:26:16 PM UTC-8, passingby wrote: > > Is there anyway to use javascript logic within list widget? > How do we use if then else logic in nested lists? > And how do these nested lists work anyway!? > Why does the output change when we add a newline after opening tag? > Man TW5 is so different than TWC! > > The problem is I need tiddlywiki.
