FilterOperator: shadowsource <http://tiddlywiki.com/#FilterOperator%3A%20shadowsource> I don't think there will be confusion, but there will sure be an order according to which one plugin overwrites another, if only by the alphabetical order of their titles. I don't think TiddlyWiki will decide on dates. Surely, the dependency mechanism must play a role in the order of how plugins are executed. Not sure if that means you need to specify a dependency to the core if you wish to overwrite a core shadow. There is quite limited information about dependencies on http://tiddlywiki.com/dev <http://tiddlywiki.com/dev/#How%20to%20create%20plugins%20in%20the%20browser:%5B%5BHow%20to%20create%20plugins%20in%20the%20browser%5D%5D%20%5B%5BScripts%20for%20building%20tiddlywiki.com%5D%5D> .
