Its a real game changer, because it allows to put all the tiddlers for a specific solution (like a person directory, a reading list of travel guides, geographic definitions, historic events) into one plugin each. Then I want to plan a travel and I create a dedicated new TW, drag in the plugins I need, do the research on the contents, put it on the usb-stick around my neck and after I return - I dump it into my main TW under node and everything falls into place.

Hi Andreas, Thanks. I'll have to investigate the backup possibilities but that looks very promising.

Re: [tw] An Easy Way to Create and Modify Plugins
Okay, I updated the Tinka version on the site, the fields are now present as well as some other stuff: * The metadata section now include edit fields for the `name` and `source` fields. * The default search box now only searches for title matches. * Backups can now be exported/downloaded. * Backups can now be restored and made active again. If another version of the plugin is already active, the option is given to back it up, before restoring the backup. ''Warning: For this mechanism to work, there has to be an 'original-title' field present in the backup tiddler. This is automatically added by Tinka, however earlier versions of Tinka did not add this field. If you want to restore a backup from an earlier version of Tinka, you will have to add the 'original-title' field manually and populate it with the former title of the plugin tiddler, in order for the restore function to work.''

Re: [tw] An Easy Way to Create and Modify Plugins
One addition: I left the source field out in the first version, because I didn't think much of it (everyone uses readme's anyways), however seeing the recent developments with the plugin-repo system, I hope that a proper update mechanism will be implemented soon and the 'source' field will be a important component for that. /Andreas Am 16.05.2015 um 14:15 schrieb Andreas Hahn: Hi Ton, thank you for you feedback, it is indeed something I have not noticed so far, as I haven't actually created a theme with Tinka yet.

[tw] An Easy Way to Create and Modify Plugins
Hi, I have noticed that in the past couple of days, people took an interest in bundling together content into either plugins or "bundles" consisting of a json file with multiple tiddlers in it. Since sometimes however, you want the management capabilities of a plugin, I have created a small GUI extension to the control panel that lets you create and modify plugins more easily. The basic idea was to make the plugin creation and editing process similiar to the tip Greg Davis shared a couple of days ago [1]. Creating this already payed off for me, since it enabled me to make a bunch of modifications to a variety of plugins and repackage them very easily. Also it removes one of the hurdles of developing in the browser. Having said that, even with this plugin, a potential user will still have to have some knowledge of filters, so it might not be for everybody. (Although I guess the search could be improved in one of the next versions) You can take a look at my example wiki here: http://twguides.org/wiki/tinka.html (Let me know if the GUI is not as self explaining as I have hoped ) Also there is a corresponding article on TWGuides: http://twguides.org/tinka.html /Andreas [1] https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/tiddlywiki/R5sSkEOCilQ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
