[tw] Re: [TW5] Transclude first paragraph or similar
@Rustem - while I solved the original problem in another way, I really
appreciate your reply and know(!) that I'll use this later on so thank you!
FYI, this made me post a new issue
https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/1769 asking to extend
splitbefore to allow for specified number of characters to split at.
@anyone else; Just for the record, if you instead use the following, it'll
give the first sentence.
$list filter=[{SomeTextyTiddler}splitbefore[. ]]
variable=firstLine$text text=firstLine//$list
:-)

It seems like a very useful Filter operator for picking parts out of

transclude a field into the text that then appears to be the first

I looked at the version of match.js that you have and it didn't match mine
... there appears to be two floating around. The one that I have has the
line 140823: reloaded for 5.0.15-beta in the header.
It can be found attached to a message here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21topic/tiddlywikidev/4ciJxJVAsY8
pointed to by the thread here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/tiddlywiki/et79cGcwFLk
I have no idea why the one on eucaly's site doesn't work but it is
significantly different and looks like an earlier version. Sorry for the
wrong pointer. I thought that I confirmed to see if it worked in a new
empty tiddlywiki but I guess my check was flawed in some way.
I just cut and pasted the version pointed to above into your example
tiddler and it works. Here is the match.js that works for me from the links
above.

[tw] Re: [TW5] Transclude first paragraph or similar
Digging into the archives, I found that it was Richard Smith who had helped me find this tool in the first place for a problem that I was having and it worked great: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/3RAobE3aXqY/hcMg09fT3TAJ Eucaly created it. It doesn't seem to be packaged as a regular plugin and that is why I thought that it might be part of the core. It is called matchfilter and is found here: http://eucaly-tw5.tiddlyspot.com/ As soon as you drag over $:/core/modules/filters/match.js ,save and refresh, those tiddlers that I gave earlier should work. The example that I gave is not perfect due to the way that $text handles content returned by filters but you should be able to massage it to your needs.

[tw] Re: [TW5] Transclude first paragraph or similar
You can likely use the match filter operator for this.
Transclude in your first paragraph of a tiddler named test like this:
{{{test ||show_first }}}
Then make a template tiddler called show_first containing:
$set name=first_paragraph filter=[is[current]match:text/.+/]
$text text=first_paragraph/
/$set
This seems to work but I am not sure why is includes some [[...]] around
the text. Probably something stupidly simple that I'm missing.
Also, I am not sure if the match filter operator is part of the core or
some some plugin that I picked up and have been carrying around in my
tiddlywikis since I see no description of it in the official site.

I've made a thing so it's easy to add todo-items by listing the title of

each issue, I intend to write a good description of the problem which I can
then post e.g here, but the aggregated list should show the titles of all
issues and the first paragraph which will serve as a summary to the issue.
So, the question is how to transclude or pick out the initial paragraph
or similar?
Thanx!

[tw] Re: [TW5] Transclude first paragraph or similar
Thank you for answering Jed! Also non-solving answers are of value as they indicate maybe I should look for alternatives. I think I'll use Tobias' summary template then. Feels silly to install and work on a lot of stuff that really have nothing to do with the actual task... but then, I don't have the coding competence for the actual task anyway so... And a clear list of what needs to be done is a wonderful thing to have. It makes life so much easier, so thanks for putting it together! That is very encouraging to hear Jed (and maybe I'm overly optimistic...ok, desperate... but it sounds like you're willing to support it a bit further). :-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

[tw] Re: [TW5] Transclude first paragraph or similar
I unfortunately don't have an answer for your question, I think it would require some javascript. Everything I have seen for that sort of goal uses a special summary field. I did make a plugin that I use for this same purpose over on my wiki, you can see it here http://inmysocks.tiddlyspot.com/#Change%20Log. It is probably overkill for your purpose unless it becomes much more complicated than it is, but I will see about including options to make a simpler list with it. In the mean time you may be able to pull out the template for the list itself to use the info popup part instead of having to pick out part of the text of a tiddler. And a clear list of what needs to be done is a wonderful thing to have.
