hi xavier, thanks for the pointer to the *default-tiddler-location* in the tiddlerwiki.info file (i didn't know it existed)... however, it that option doesn't work at all with Tiddlywiki on Node.js!
if a configure like this: "config": { "default-tiddler-location": "tiddlers" }, i.e. which is the "default" configuration - everything works as expected (with or without customising tiddler file naming) so, then i tried to change from "tiddlers" to "tiddlers2" without "customising tiddler file naming": i.e. "config": { "default-tiddler-location": "tiddlers2" }, then, the "story list" (i.e. "$__StoryList.tid") is not handled correctly, nor any other TiddlyWiki configurations you can do, like "default tiddlers" (i.e. "$__DefaultTiddlers.tid") once i refresh (or restart the Node.js session) - tiddlywiki doesn't seem to recognise the "story list", so it creates another one named "$__StoryList 1.tid"), and another file for the "default tiddlers" named "$__DefaultTiddlers 1.tid"... so, the "default-tiddler-location" configuration option in the " tiddlywiki.info" file is sadly broken :-( i've tested this with Node.js ver 8.11.1 on Tiddlywiki ver 5.1.17 for Windows 7 (the target platform i need to get this working on). i also tried "customising tiddler file naming", but that's broken as well (the "$:/config/FileSystemPaths.tid" seem to be completely ignored). but, if i put a "$:/config/FileSystemPaths.tid" file in directory "tiddlers/_system/config" with "default-tiddler-location" set to "tiddlers2", and the content of "FileSystemPaths.tid" is: ``` [is[system]removeprefix[$:/]addprefix[_system/]] [!has[draft.of]] ``` the "customising tiddler file naming" seem to work (the tiddlers are stored in directory hierarchy as configured by the "$:/config/FileSystemPaths.tid" file), but suffers from the same problem as mentioned above with the "story list" - so that's broken, as well. i didn't bother to get "default-tiddler-location" set to "." to work (which is what i want), since this configuration i've used in this example must work before i change the "default-tiddler-location" to the current directory... cheers!
