Folks, Please find attached a work in progress experiment bundle of tiddlers. Drop in an empty wiki and see how new tiddlers (Via done button) gain a serial number and existing tiddlers can have one added. This replaces the standard edit template done button (hides existing), and modifies $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/subtitle <file:///C:/Data/TW5/scratch/Scratch%20(1).html#%24%3A%2Fcore%2Fui%2FViewTemplate%2Fsubtitle> to show the serial number under the view tiddler buttons.
See $:/PSaT/Tiddler-serial-numbers <file:///C:/Data/TW5/scratch/Scratch%20(1).html#%24%3A%2FPSaT%2FTiddler-serial-numbers> for more Try the following where N is a valid serial number :<<tsn N>> :<<tsn N link>> :<<tsn N text>> :<<tsn N transclude>> Or :<<qualify-tsn>> :<<tsn> PS this is very initial and has inconsistent notes and pieces.
