My unilink plugin <https://wikilabs.github.io/editions/uni-link/>may be an option. > I don't believe that Felix and me are the only TiddlyWiki users who are > struggling with renaming the tiddlers (or tags). > TiddlyWiki contains a new mechanism now, that "batch renames" all existing tags, if you rename a tiddler title. .. So if you change a tag-tiddler the core will do the batch processing. This doesn't change links like: [[tag-name-here]] in tiddler text. ... But if you rename your tiddlers a lot you will have a lot of [[prettylinks|tag-name-tiddler]] anyway. Otherwise your text will be hard to read. ... The alias-plugin, which is part of uni-link will help your here. -> No renaming needed! > Let's go to the roots of TiddlyWiki that positions as a *system of small > pieces of related information*.

I know, that naming tiddlers is hard! .. That's why I use uni-link ;) and a theme, that doesn't use tiddler titles as a heading. see: https://wikilabs.github.io/editions/slant-01/ My tiddler names look like: this-is-a-tiddler-name, which I don't change anymore. ... I use "real headings" at the tiddler body, which allows me to use the tiddler title as an "index" and I can change the heading as often as I want. "caption" and "subtitle" are very handy here. This works well with the above mentioned plugins, which don't break TWs, that don't use the plugins, if you copy your texts.

The whole core javascript code and UI uses the tiddler title as a heading. .... because it's easy for new users. > Or a too much work to change the system? > Yes. ... If you really want to have it in a different way, without regressions in functionality, you better start from scratch.
