Hi Jeremy! Thank you for your clarification! I hope people come and help to develop a full covered documentation for Tiddlywiki. I was writing a short code to step-through a nested list and I encountered this issue. I had misspelled the name of macro in example 5 and I got strange results.
Once again thank you for all your efforts. /Mohammad On Thursday, June 28, 2018 at 7:48:10 PM UTC+4:30, Jeremy Ruston wrote: > > Hi Mohammad > > Some points about the list widget: > > * If the “filter” attribute is not present then a default of > “[!is[system]sort[title]]” is used > * If the list widget is completely empty (ie only whitespace between the > opening and closing tags), then it behaves as if the content were a DIV or > a SPAN containing a link to the current tiddler (it’s a DIV if the list > widget is in block mode, or a SPAN if it is in inline mode) > * If the “template” attribute is not present then the content of the list > widget will be used as the template, unless the widget is completely empty > in which case a default template is used > > It’s is itself more complex than we’d like, and interacts with some other > complex concepts (eg inline vs. block) and has some weird edge cases, and > bugs. > > A useful tool for exploring this stuff is to use the “Internals” plugin to > view the parse tree for each example. > > > <$list> > </$list> > > Returns nothing! > > > This one is a bug, I think.
